If you are the last image a person sees before she sleeps, she'll be more likely to dream about you. If you talk to the person before he sleeps, he's more likely to be thinking about you when he goes to sleep. Wait until the person is in deep sleep. While the person is dreaming, try saying something to them quietly, such as "Dream of Nicky" or "Didn't Nicky look pretty tonight?" Don't be loud enough to wake them up. The reason this may work is because you tend to incorporate sounds and sensations into your dreams. Therefore, if you use your voice to talk to a person, you may be able to trigger your image in her mind. Whether you have a signature perfume or you prefer a particular soap, introduce the scent to the sleeping person. Like sounds, smells can be incorporated into dreams, and if it reminds the person of you, you may show up in his dream. If you can get the person to play it before bed, you may be able to encourage the person to dream about you. For instance, leave your favorite necklace behind that reminds him of you. Try leaving it on his nightstand to remind him of you before you go to sleep.

SUMMARY: Try giving the person a picture of yourself. Call or text the person near bedtime. Talk to the person. Use a characteristic smell. Record a video of yourself. Leave a memento that reminds the person of you.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When you're looking for culottes to wear in the winter, opt for warm, sturdy materials. Thick fabrics like wool, corduroy, and flannel are great options for cold weather wear. Avoid lighter fabrics like cotton, rayon, linen, or chambray. There's no need for winter clothing to be drab. Neutral colors are great for winter bottoms, however, because they are so versatile. Select culottes in a classic color like black, brown, beige, navy, white, or grey. You can also get patterned culottes in neutral shades (e.g., grey plaid or stripes in different shades of brown). These colors will give you limitless mixing and matching possibilities, and will look good with just about anything else in your winter wardrobe. If you wear culottes in a neutral color, try pairing them with winter-friendly non-neutral colors, such as deep jewel tones. For example, try a dark teal top with brown culottes. Alternatively, pair non-neutral culottes with a neutral top. For example, you might pair a grey shirt with red or burgundy culottes. Culottes with a sharp silhouette and crisp pleats make a great alternative to suit skirts during the winter months. A pair of pleated wool dress culottes in a neutral shade is a great addition to your winter office wardrobe. Look for culottes that are fun, cozy, or glamorous for your evenings and days off. Denim culottes are versatile and classic, and they go well with just about everything. Flowing velvet culottes are warm, cozy, and perfect for dramatic evening outfits or just comfy lounge wear. Fun patterns and bold colors can add excitement to casual outfits. Look for culottes in winter-friendly jewel tones and season-appropriate patterns like plaid or Fair Isle print. Culottes can work for all kinds of figures, but different cuts tend to flatter different shapes. When you're wearing heavy winter fabrics, choosing tailored styles can help you avoid a bulky or shapeless look. Take some time to figure out which cut works best for you. For example, if you: Are short and curvy: Choose culottes that end just below the knee and flatter your figure with a high-rise waist. Have short legs: Pick high-waisted, calf-length culottes to add length. Vertical stripes can also make your legs appear longer. Have a slim, athletic figure: Wear swingy, ankle-length culottes to add width and volume to your lower half. A high waist can also help define your curves. Are tall and curvy: Go for extra-long, wide legged culottes that skim your hips and thighs. Vertical stripes can create a sharp, slimming effect.

SUMMARY: Choose winter-friendly fabrics. Go for winter neutral colors. Pick more structured styles for a professional look. Select casual styles for your leisure time. Find a fit that flatters you.

Certain brands make their pens available by the bag, box or even case, perfect for people who are particular about what they use. Stockpiling pens will ensure that you have a constant supply, and save you the trouble of shopping for new pens regularly. Visit wholesale stores for deals on bulk packages of your favorite pens, or order them online. Older models of pens are frequently discontinued as new ones are released. If you're partial to a particular pen, buy up as many as you can in case they disappear from the market later on. Assuming you have a little money to spend, do some research on top-quality specialty pens. Companies like Platinum, Waterman and Montblanc manufacture pens using flawless designs and durable materials, so they're guaranteed to last longer, leak less and always perform at peak level. If you weigh your options carefully, you might never have to buy another pen again. Get a protective case to go along with an expensive pen to protect it from damage. No matter what kind of ink pen you end up going with, put it away somewhere room temperature and out of the way when you're not using it. Store spares or refills together with your pens in the same drawer or in a nearby supply stash. Make sure the caps are secured and the pens are laid flat or arranged in an upright container to cut down on the chances of a leak. Keep track of where you leave your pens so that you don't lose them. Check your pockets for pens before you wash and dry them. Forgetting a pen when you do the laundry is a surefire way to ruin your clothes.

Buy your favorite pens in bulk. Invest in a premium pen and ink. Store and maintain your pens properly.
