How do I work the peplum look?

Touted as one of the biggest trends this year, peplum isa popular style in the west. But how do you get it right?

The peplum, often described as a short and full flounce or theextension of a garment below the waist, is one of the hottest trends on theinternational runways this year. Peplum can accentuate a regular jacket ora dress, and add a quirky touch to an otherwise ordinary ensemble.Unlike many trends that are restricted only to the catwalks and worn onlyby fashionistas, this one is being embraced by many regular womenbecause a flared ruffle attached to a bodice or a coat always manages tomake a person look well put together.

Style experts however suggest not trying this look if you don't wantto draw attention to your waist, because any additional fabric in that areawill add girth. But if you don't mind your waist being the focal point ofyour outfit, the definition and structure offered by a peplum can make aperson look both curvy and fabulous. The best way to wear peplum is tomake sure there are no colour clashes brought in by the peplum. It istherefore, best to use it in solid colours, rather than using a different printon your dress and another on the peplum. But you can use peplums withsequins, polka dots and graphic art if you want to draw attention to it.The best aspect of a peplum is the fact that it can help cover chunkythighs and is very figure friendly too.

Dodge JourneyRecognized by Road &Travel MagazineRoad & Travel magazine hasnamed the 2012 Dodge Journeyamong its top10 picks in its 2012SUV Buyer’s Guide. The onlinemagazine touts itself as beinggeared toward women, notgearheads. It concentrates on theaverage consumer concerned withpurchasing autos, trip planningand safety on the road.As far as safety is concerned,Journey has been an IIHS TopSafety Pick for four consecutiveyears and is loaded with more than50 safety and security features,including seven standard airbags,LATCH child seat anchor system,four-wheel disc anti-lock brakesand more.As for taking trips in the Journey,test-drivers at Road & Travelpraised the SUV’s nooks andcrannies calling them “very cleverand very usable features,” citingsome secret hiding places,including a front passenger seatbin that pops up from the seatcushion and the rear seat dual floorbins. Besides the hidden features,Road & Travel found the more

prominent features in the interior“handsome and inviting.” Whocould resist such an attractivedescription? Chrysler knows theinterior isn’t just a nice place toride, it also offers best-in-classutility. The online magazinechecked out more than the SUV’sattractive features, it also took intoaccount its functionality, saying“families with young childrenolder than the toddler stage shouldappreciate the built-in rear childseats that pop up out of the seatcushion, and disappear back downwhen not needed.” Another secrethiding place!Test-drivers also appreciated thebackup camera with videodisplayed on Dodge’s Uconnect4.3-inch touch screen.

Kia leaves popular Sorento crossover alone for 2013

It takes a keen eye to spy the only thing – the restyled badge inthe grille – visually differentiating the 2013 Kia Sorento versionsas they motor into the model’s third year. And little has changed

behind it, but that shouldn’t impede this good-looking crossover’sability to remain one of the top sellers in the mid-size class.

The Sorento nameplate has been around since 2002, originallyattached to a traditional body-on-frame SUV, but the current onesarrived as 2011 models sporting latest-tech monocoque structure,styling with eye appeal and plenty of features. And their entry to theburgeoning crossover market coincided with Kia’s “arrival” as afront-line brand in Canada. In October, it celebrated 46 months ofconsecutive sales increases, with the Sorento its second-best-sellingmodel for the month. And in November, it was 47 consecutive monthsof increases. So far this year, Kia’s numbers top long establishednames such as Volkswagen, Nissan, Mazda and Subaru.

With an overall length that puts it at the lower end of the mid-size SUV/crossover model spectrum, and doesn’t stretch out muchfurther than some of the latest compact-class crossovers, the Sorentooccupies a size frame that fits a lot of buyers’ requirements. Itsability to carry up to seven people also adds to its family appeal, asdoes a choice of engines, drive systems and features, that allowsthe price to span a broad spectrum.

The Sorento LX starts at $26,895 for a front-driver ($28,795 withAWD) equipped with a 191-hp, 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine andsix-speed automatic, plus A/C, full feature audio system, tilt/telescope wheel with audio controls, Bluetooth connectivity, trip

computer, heated seats, remote keyless entry, heated side mirrorswith turn signal repeaters, fog lamps and roof rails. Stepping up toan LX with V-6 power costs a couple of grand more. You can thenescalate through EX versions to get to our test Sorento, a loaded tothe belt-line SX priced at $41,295. What this purchases is a made-in-the-U.S. crossover with styling it would be hard to find fault with,and to which the SX trim level ads a unique grille and front and rearbumpers, LED rear lights, chrome exhaust tip, 18-inch alloy wheels,rear spoiler, power folding mirrors and sunroof. And into which youcan fit the aforesaid seven passengers or a maximum of 2,052 litresof cargo, or 1,047 litres with the rear seat occupied and 258 litres(think grocery bags) behind the third row.

Eating tomatoes wards off depression?If you have been feeling

downcast and gloomy, thenthe best thing to do

overcome this state of mind is toeat tomatoes a few times a week,say researchers. Researchersanalysed the mental healthrecords and diet habits of justunder 1,000 men and womenaged 70 years or over. Theyfound those eating tomatoes twoto six times a week were 46 percent less likely to suffer the bluesthan those eating the red fruitless than once a week.

A team from China andJapan, led by Kaijun Niu fromChina's Tianjin MedicalUniversity, wanted to investigatepreliminary reports thatlycopene might also promotepsychological and well asphysical health by reducingoxidative stress, or damage tohealthy brain cells, the Journal
