Cancun offers sun, beach, access to UNESCO World Heritage sites such as the ancient Mayan ruins of Chichen-Itza or the tropical rain forest of Sian Ka’an.

When I think of a all inclusive deals I don’t compromise on luxury. I think of luxury resorts with first class spa, great room views, easy access to white-sand beaches, and eco-tourism packages.

The following Cancun resorts offer ocenviews, quality amenities, and luxury accommodations.

Milan Fashion Week has begun with Elena Miro showing off her 2010-2011 Fall/Winter Collection. Her show drew significant attention due to the models showing off a different look. Apparently, the days of super skinny models are out of style. The fashion industry does not want to encourage models or aspiring models to starve themselves. This show was put together to “help real women to feel confident and at peace with themselves”, Elena Miroglio.

Anyway, Tiger stated he intends to finish his treatment (for sex addiction) and he is unsure of when he will make his great return to golf.

As for the media, he’s asked that his family be left alone. Either way, his family is the victim and they should not be punished for his behavior. We wish them well and hope to report more positive news about Tiger Woods in the future.

On Friday, February 19th Tiger Woods will finally break his silence after being M.I.A. for so long. He intends to let the public know about the future of his golf career and his family life. We’re sure he’s hoping this will finally get the paparazzi off his back for at least a few months. We expect to see Tiger back on the green soon!

Tragically, famed designer Alexander McQueen committed suicide on February 11, 2010. Sadly, the week before the designer lost his mother.

Alexander McQueen will be remembered in the fashion world for his Alexander McQueen and McQ labels. He designed elaborate fashion for stars such as Lady Gaga, Kate Bosworth, Nicole Kidman, and more!

Every year has a color that’s “in” when it comes to fashion each year. Throughout 2010, we should expect to see more turquoise worn by local fashionistas and celebs alike. Turquoise definitely has more of a spring flare, so we will continue to watch the runway to see if these predictions made by fashion insiders are true.
