Armie's split from wife Elizabeth Chambers comes after 10 years of marriage, while Jessica announced her split from actor Josh Lucas in May, following reports of him cheating. Armie was also seen walking arm-in-arm with Rumer Willis, and the actor seems to be exploring the dating pool.

Ariel has opted for a bright candyfloss pink hairdo, and wore her new pink hair in a sleek style, complete with a center-parting.

Ariel is currently dating actor Netflix's Dumplin' actor Luke, for around eight months, following her split from boyfriend of three years, Levi Meaden. The couple also quarantined together when the coronavirus outbreak was at its peak.

Grabbing instant attention, 43 year old Colombian songstress Shakira was an absolute vision as she posted a racy snap on Instagram. Looking like a million bucks, Shakira flaunted her pert posterior to her 68 million Instagram followers, and promoted a skimpy swimwear look designed by herself and created by her friend. Captioning the picture, "This is a new bathing suit I designed and my friend Bego made for me, I always need to create my own for the summer!' The chic swimwear piece was in a lilac hue and featured string bikini bottoms to show off her shapely bottom. The fringed two-piece also put on show Shakira's endless legs and toned abs. The 'Hips Don't Lie' singer, who shares two children with her husband, footballer Gerard Piqué, is an avid fan of belly dancing, an Arabic-style dancing which is an expressionist type of dance featuring complex and alluring movements of the torso.

The song, co-written and produced by Emma alongside fellow students at Stages Music Arts in Maryland where she grew up, invites the listener to recall a time when someone they loved moved away, or when they themselves had to move away from their loved ones; as Emma was experiencing personally at the time during her move to Austin, TX last year.

Usually regarded as a sad moment, the situation could conversely be seen as a hopeful time to take a look back at the amazing memories that were created together, making a pact to stay in touch and stay just as close friends as before - despite the geographic challenges you will now face.

The message in Don’t Forget to Remember Me is also made especially relevant in the time of the COVID 19 pandemic, where social distancing and quarantines have made us all feel disconnected from our family and peers - regardless of location - sometimes even from those in our own house!

“Last year, one of my close friends moved to Ohio and I was feeling pretty sad about that; not knowing when we would see each other again”, Emma recalled, “Then it was decided that my family would be moving out of state as well; so I wrote this song as a way to help us never forget these friendships we built together”.

In addition to continuing her work with Stages, Emma’s eventual move to Austin has opened the doors for her to expand her musical endeavors under the guidance of celebrated singer/songwriters, Chad and Natasha Hudson, the proprietors of Hudson’s on Mercer.

She continued, “This song will hopefully serve as a reminder to everyone that we need to cherish the time we spend with each other, and that no matter the distance we need to work hard to keep in touch so we can make more memories together”.

Though “Don’t Forget to Remember Me” features a soulful, country-pop vibe, her upcoming tunes will showcase the evolution of her vocals, feature more mature themes, and highlight the influence of significant pop icons like Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift.

Wood flooring is a timeless and chic option for at least one room of your house. If you are remodeling, there are high chances that someone will suggest you to opt for a wood flooring as it gives a warm and cozy feel to a house. There are three kinds of wood flooring: solid hardwood, laminate flooring, and engineered wood flooring.

For those who do not wish to opt for a solid hardwood flooring, engineered wood flooring is a smart option as it is a finish of plywood and finish wood. In technical terms, what you see and walk on is the finish wood, while plywood comes underneath and about 75 percent of the flooring comprises of plywood. It is the plywood that distinguishes engineered wood flooring from solid hardwood, and engineered wood flooring serves as a perfect alternate to solid hardwood.

Engineered wood flooring looks and feels exactly like solid hardwood as the top is actual hardwood, albeit a very thin layer, and below the solid wood is replaced by plywood, a high-quality one.
Well-regarded by homebuyers, engineered wood flooring also has a high resale value, although it falls in the pricier category. It also has stability against heat therefore is a great choice for radiant heating.  Engineered wood flooring can also be sanded to a minimal degree if it develops scratches, and the base of engineered wood flooring demonstrates a higher resilience to water.

As compared to solid hardwood, engineered wood flooring stands up better against moisture, and works well in areas where light moisture is present such as bathrooms, basements, and kitchens. However, the best areas for engineered wood flooring are bedrooms, hallways, and living rooms, areas that typically stay dry. Areas that may flood frequently are not at all suited for engineered wood flooring.

With an appearance of real solid hardwood flooring, engineered wood flooring is slightly more affordable, and offers a life expectancy of almost thirty years. Most types of installations of engineered wood flooring are glue-down or nail-down, and a professional installation is more common instead of a DIY. Engineered wood flooring also comes in a lot of different styles and colors, and finding one to suit your need as per the décor of your house will be an easy task.

Engineered hardwood flooring can be, at least once, sanded and refinished, and can even be refinished up to three times if the flooring has a particularly thick veneer layer. Engineered wood flooring has a cost which typically starts at $4.50 per square foot, however, usually the average cost is $8 per square foot. The cost of an engineered wood flooring can come up to the range of $15 to $20 per square foot as a professional installation is recommended for it. Engineered hardwood flooring can easily rival solid hardwood as it looks almost the same, and has a prestige about it. Also superior to laminate flooring, engineered hardwood flooring is the way to go, and can instantly uplift and give a brand-new look and feel to your home décor.
