IN THE NEWS: EARRINGS RECALL/fashion

IN THE NEWS  product safety



Like most women I like to wear earrings , but sometimes I have problems wearing them. 
My ears will start to itch and bother me or become very red. So I started to wear more gold ones and don't have any problems.  Of course one concern i have is losing a pair of earrings, especially if a real gold pair.  It has happened to me even though it seemed the earring was secure. 

So sometimes I try to find other types , that I get no reaction too. 

Recently I came across a news page that is part of the EU product safety and there it was noted some earrings were being recalled due to high nickel content or allergic reactions.

The page is in German , but there are photos of the items and product codes. Also it covers many products we as consumers use in our daily life.  So if there is anything you are concerned about and want to check out , then this page is a good source of information. 

This page covers products that are sold in the
European Union only.

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

 SOMETHING DIFFERENT  I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui ,  I was in AWE.   Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The  prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top  that I wear as a coverup)  This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS  love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for  summer. JUST BLENDING IN CHECKERBOARD ANYONE? find out more about her work   here   Thandiwe via BBC images via Thandiwe Murui

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians  or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises  such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is  a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way  Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person    This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news  etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of?  Okay  maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars  gorgeous , flawless and h
