What colour shoes to wear with your suit (without overthinking it)Let's cut straight to the chase: matching shoes with your suit doesn't need to be complicated. Sure, footwear can make or break your look, but stressing over every shade is a waste of good energy (and style). Shoes are the easiest way to lift your whole suit vibe. So, no overthinking required - just a little common sense. Keep it simple. A solid pair of black shoes, especially something classic like a Derby or Oxford, will be your go-to with just about every suit hanging in your wardrobe. Black, navy, grey - these shoes handle it all, even if you're the type who likes to venture into bolder territory with patterns or textures. Trust me, it's your reliable friend in footwear form, ready for every occasion. But if you're itching to branch out, brown or burgundy shoes are your next best bet. Brown works wonders with navy and grey suits, adding just enough relaxed flair. Burgundy? That's for when you're feeling a little adventurous. Just remember, style should feel easy. Master the basics first, then experiment. And whatever you do, don't let footwear anxiety keep you from stepping out confidently.	recommenduk	775.00%
Here's how to make the most of resistance band exercisesAre you looking for a way to build full-body muscle and strength without having to hit the gym? Look no further! Resistance band exercises are the perfect solution for you. These exercises are not only trending but also effective in building muscle and strength right from the comfort of your home. Resistance bands offer a wide range of exercises that target different muscle groups, making them versatile and easy to use. You can perform exercises like squats by placing the band around your thighs and lowering yourself into a squat position, which adds resistance to strengthen your legs and glutes. Another great move is the banded chest press—wrap the band around your back and hold each end in your hands, then push forward as if you're doing a push-up, which works your chest and shoulders without the need for heavy weights. If you're focusing on your upper body, try the resistance band row. Secure the band around a sturdy object, then hold both ends and pull them towards you, engaging your back and biceps. For a core workout, the standing band rotation is excellent for targeting your obliques. Hold the band in both hands, step on it with one foot, and twist your torso from side to side, keeping tension on the band throughout the movement. With these simple yet effective exercises, you can engage your entire body and build strength without needing much space or equipment.	recommenduk	666.67%	187.50%
This cocktail - named after a gun - is a timeless summer classicThe French 75 is a classic cocktail from World War I, first made at Harry's New York Bar in Paris. Named after the powerful French 75mm field gun, it's perfect for summer with its refreshing blend of gin, lemon juice, sugar, and Champagne. The French 76 is a close cousin, using vodka instead of gin for a slightly different taste. To make a French 75, you'll need gin (or vodka for a French 76), freshly squeezed lemon juice, simple syrup, and Champagne or dry sparkling wine. Simple syrup can be bought or made by dissolving sugar in water. Don't forget a lemon twist for garnish. Making a French 75 is easy. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, add gin (or vodka), lemon juice, and simple syrup, and shake until chilled. Strain into a chilled coupe or fluted glass, top with Champagne, and garnish with a lemon twist. For the French 76, just use vodka instead. Always add the Champagne last to avoid a fizzy mess. Use high-quality spirits and chill your glass for the best experience. Cheers to enjoying this classic cocktail, perfect for any summer occasion!	recommenduk	600.00%	950.00%
