> We surveyed a variety of top experts and learned five
> unbelievably effective secrets to make guys go gaga.
> Work it, dream girl:
> 1. BE THE CENTER OF ATTENTION
> Want to be the one who gets noticed? Stand in the center of
> the room. According to Dr. Albert Mehrabian, the author of
> several books and nationally-known expert in the field of
> spatial psychology, where you are in a room (and what you're
> doing) has a lot to do with your ability to attract the
> opposite sex. Where should you be for the highest impact and
> the greatest number of interested cuties? Smack-dab in the
> center of the room, standing up and moving around a bit.
> (But don't pace a track on the carpet for goodness sake...)
>
> If you're in a bar or nightclub, the best place to be is at
> one of the corners on the bar. Not only will you meet more
> people, but, according to Mehrabian, bartenters tend to
> gravitate toward the corners as well. Interesting
> conversation AND a full drink? You'll feel like you've died
> and gone to dating heaven. The worst place to be seen?
> Hanging out near the wall or sitting at a table. That hot
> stranger approaching your table and asking "may I join you"
> only happens in the movies.
>
> 2. THE COLOR LURE
> What color can you wear to compel the opposite sex to
> approach you?
> According to Color Consultant Leatrice Eiseman, Director of
> the Pantone Color Institute and author of Colors For Your
> Every Mood, says women should wear a pink- peach to make
> themselves most approachable. The color is "very flattering
> to most skin tones, it gives you healthy glow," and
> according to Eiseman, projects "a little vulnerability which
> brings out something protective in men."
>
> Want to wear a color that weeds out guys who can't handle
> strong women? Try a deep red, burgundy or plum. Men who
> aren't attracted to strong women will steer clear.
>
> Of all the colors, red is the most sensual. But, wear red
> with caution. "Red is the color of sex and power," says
> Eiseman. Red adds an element of excitement and attracts two
> types of men - men interested in sex, and men attracted to
> powerful women. Sure, you'll probably have to fend off a lot
> of freaks, but you could also end up attracting a guy that
> isn't threatened by the fact that you make a bigger salary.
>
> Concerned your wardrobe is driving people away? Stay away
> from what Eiseman calls "squished caterpillar yellow-green"
> which is said to repel both sexes equally.
>
> Want to know what color the dream guys will be wearing this
> year?
>
> It's blue. According to Eiseman, guys who frequently wear
> blue are "stable, faithful, constant and always there." The
> blue guy is a fantastic candidate for a long-term
> relationship -- he's dependable, momogomous and can match
> his own clothes.
>
> 3. BODY TALK THAT REELS 'EM IN
>
> How do you use body language to attract the opposite sex?
>
> The key is to make yourself approachable. According to
> nationally-respected body language expert and professional
> speaker, Patti Wood, you want to make yourself a "safe"
> (read approachable) target. How do you accomplish that?
> Don't take up a lot of space (which is a sign of power and
> superiority.) Wood says, "we are strong women, but remember,
> we're trying to get a man to come over and talk to us." She
> explains, "you have to show you have room for someone else
> in your life."
>
> In addition, Wood says "to be very approachable women
> should stand with their feet no farther than 6 inches apart
> with toes pointed slightly inward. " Other key moves, the
> nod and the head tilt - signal you're listening to what the
> other person has to say.
>
> Body language tips for both sexes: Don't fold your arms and
> don't chew on gum, ice or your fingernails. According to
> Wood, the chewing indicates anxiety or frustration, neither
> of which are very attractive emotions.
>
> 4. THE POWER OF A SMILE
>
> Psychology and body language experts agree that one of the
> most important things you can do to make yourself more
> attractive (and approachable) is to smile. Not a great big
> plastic game-show smile, just your normal "I'm having a
> great time and I'm happy to be here" face will do the trick.
> According to Wood, "the smile is the international signal of
> friendliness."
>
> 5. TEMPTING WITH SCENT
>
> Studies show that men associate the scents of cinnamon and
> vanilla with love. To make the scents work for you, try
> baking some ready-made cinnamon rolls about an hour before
> your date arrives, or, wear a cinnamon-vanilla scented
> perfume (there's a fabulous one called "Man Magnet" at
> www.chooseherbs.com)
>
>
> Aromatherapy experts have long-believed cinnamon to be an
> aphrodisiac. According to Laura Davimes, aromatherapy and
> herb expert and owner of Herban Avenues, "certain aromatic
> plants exude oils similar to our own segxwal secretions or
> pheromones. Wearing cinnamon/vanilla blends increases the
> presence of pheromone-like substances and dramatically
> increases attraction."
