You can do this by cutting and cubing a watermelon. You can also do it by cutting a watermelon in half, and then scooping out the flesh with a melon scoop or coffee scoop. If you absolutely cannot find any frozen strawberries, you can use fresh ones—just be sure to chop off the stems first. You may also have to add more ice in later if you'd like a colder, thicker smoothie. If you can't get any mint leaves, try basil leaves instead. Both mint and basil blend well with watermelons, cucumbers, and strawberries. If you are using fresh strawberries, you might want to add in more ice cubes. For a more flavorful twist, use coconut water instead of plain water. Keep blending until the ice gets all broken up, and all the ingredients are evenly mixed together. There should not be any large bits and pieces of watermelon, cucumber, or strawberry. If you'd like, you can garnish each with a cucumber slice placed onto the rim, or with a couple of mint or basil leaves.

Unless you are going to a funeral or black-tie affair, there is no reason to wear a black suit in the daytime. Instead, go for a classic-cut, neutral color. These suits will be more versatile and favorable for everyday wear. Most dress shirt colors will also match well with a dark grey or navy. Feel free to choose a subtle pattern for your shirt, just make sure it doesn't clash with any pattern on your suit. The jacket should taper in at the waist to accentuate your shoulders. While the hem should fall where your fingertips end naturally when you have your arms at your side. The sleeves should also sit at the top of your wrists and allow a quarter to a half inch of your shirt cuff to show.  For a better fit, visit a tailor to have the jacket fitted around your biceps. Avoid lapels wider than three inches. Also be sure to remove the brand label from the sleeve. This is when your pants skim the tops of your shoes and create a crease. If there is no crease, it's a good sign that your pants are too short. However, if you have a deep crease or multiple creases, it's likely your pants are too long. To make sure you get the right length, try the pants on while wearing shoes. If you are planning to wear a suit every day, buy more than one pair of trousers as they are likely to wear quickly. Pleats are a much older look that has fallen out of fashion. So rather than trousers with a front crease, go for a flat-pressed trouser, which will help slim your legs. Similarly, purchasing pants without cuffs will help elongate your legs, as cuffing makes them appear shorter.

One-sentence summary -- Choose a charcoal gray or navy blue suit. Check the fit of your jacket. Make sure the pants “break” on top of your shoes. Avoid pants with front pleats or cuffs.
