LE CHIC MODE

SOON THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS BEGIN AND PLANNING FOR OUR TRAVELS AND THE THINGS WE NEED TO PACK ARE ON OUR MINDS. WHEN TRAVELING WHAT DO WE LIKE  OR NEED TO TAKE ALONG WITH US.  OF COURSE FOR EACH OF US IT IS DIFFERENT. DEPENDING ON IF TRAVELING WITH CHILDREN OR ALONE. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE THINGS YOU TAKE ALONG ON YOUR TRAVELS? HERE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS I USUALLY PACK…  TRAVEL GUIDE BOOKS -    NO NEED.  ONCE YOU GET TO YOUR DESTINATION THE TOURIST CENTERS HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED, SO  DONT  BOTHER TO LUGE ALONG THOSE HEAVY GUIDE BOOKS.  PLUS ALL THINGS IN THE TOURIST INFO CENTERS ARE FREE IN MOST CASES.  MAPS FOR THE CITY OR PLACE YOUR GOING TO IS MORE THE THING TO HAVE. THEY ARE LIGHT TO CARRY  SO YOU CAN PLAN YOUR ITINERARY OR OUTINGS. TRUST ME THE SMALL MAP ON YOUR PHONE     IS NOT ENOUGH. MEDICATIONS  , 1ST AID -   YES ,DEFINITELY!!! I USUALLY MAKE SURE TO HAVE THIS WITH ME, AND...

HAPPY EARTH DAY - 22 of April is EARTH DAY. WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER IS EARTH IS  ALL OF OUR WERE HOME. THE PLACE WE HAVE TO PROTECT WITH CARE AND ALL THE THINGS THAT ARE PART OF IT. SO WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THIS  EARTH DAY??? IN THE PAST I WAS PART OF ECOLOGICAL  ORGANIZATION THAT TAUGHT KIDS OF HOW IMPORTANT THE ENVIRONMENT IS TO ALL OF US AND EACH YEAR THEY WOULD SPEND  A WEEKEND OUT PLANTING TREES. WELL I CAN TELL YOU ONE THING, IT WAS GREAT FUN AND THE EXCITEMENT THE KIDS HAD TO TRY AND PLANT AS MANY TREES AS THEY COULD, WAS THE CHALLENGE. SO WHATEVER YOU PLAN TO DO BE IT BIG OR SMALL, THINK ABOUT THE EFFECT YOU AND ALL OF US  HAVE ON THIS AMAZING WORLD. WE NEED TO PROTECT IT , THE ANIMALS, THE TREES  AND MOST IMPORTANTLY MAKE IT BETTER FOR OTHERS TOO. SO FOR MY EARTH DAY EVENT  I PLAN TO GO OUT IN THE GARDEN .  TO PLANT SOME FLOWERS THAT BEES ARE ATTRACTED TO AND BUTTERFLIES ARE SUPPOSE TO LOVE.  BEES ARE SO I...

DON T  YOU LOVE FRESH FLOWERS???? WELL THERE IS NOTHING I LOVE MORE THEN FRESH FLOWERS AND THE BEAUTY IT ADDS TO A SPACE. BUT ONE THING  I FIND THEY DONT LAST LONG ENOUGH TO ENJOY. WELL I FOUND THIS RECIPE FOR KEEPING  YOUR FRESH CUT FLOWERS TO LAST LONGER TIME THIS MIGHT BE ONE OF THE WAYS THAT WORKS TO KEEP YOUR  FLOWERS FRESHER LONGER. HOMEMADE FLOWER PRESERVATIVE 1 TSP,   SUGAR 1 TSP.   BLEACH 2 TSP   LEMON  OR LIME JUICE 1 GAL  LUKEWARM WATER ACCORDING TO THE DIRECTIONS, THE SUGAR IS THE FOOD SOURCE, BLEACH IS PREVENT BACTERIA GROWTH, LEMON OR LIME JUICE IS FOR THE PH LEVEL OF THE WATER.  NOTE: FOR CUT TULIPS USE COLD WATER, IT RECOMMENDS. SO  HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE ADMIRING OUR FLOWERS INDOORS FOR LONGER. CIAO LOVELIES!

THE ROMY IS THE OSCARS OF AUSTRIA AND IS  AWARDED FOR FILM AND TELEVISION. THE EVENT IS HELD AT THE GRAND HOFBURG IN THE CENTER OF VIENNA. LIKE MOST PLACES IN VIENNA IT IS A GRAND MAJESTIC PLACE AND CERTAINLY AN AMAZING PLACE TO VISIT ON ANY OCCASION. THE ROMY IS AN AWARD NAMED AFTER THE AUSTRIAN ACTRESS ROMY SCHNEIDER,  SHE PLAYED SISI (THE EMPRESS OF AUSTRIA) AND IN OTHE EUROPEAN  FILMS.  WITH ACTORS, ALAIN DELON, AND OTHERS. THE WEEKEND: THE  ROMY AWARDS AND SOME PHOTOS OF THE LOVELY FASHIONS WORN BY THE AUSTRIAN ACTORS  OR  CELEBRITIES   1920s LOOK THE METALLIC TREND DREAMY WHITE  GOWN   ONE SHOULDER GOWN   70S VIBE fotos  vienna.at

HOW TO LOOK STYLISH WELL ON THE GO. MOST OF US  HAVE TO COMMUTE TO WORK  AND LIKE MOST WE WANT TO BE COMFORTABLE , AS WELL AS LOOK GOOD. I FOR ONE LIKE TO WEAR MY HEELS, BUT THAT IS NOT ALWAYS SO EASY.  ESPECIALLY WELL RUNNING TO CATCH THE METRO , TRAM OR BUS.  ALSO THE TIME OF YEAR AND WEATHER  HAVE TO CONSIDER.. HERE ARE SOMETHINGS I WOULD PICK TO WEAR FOR THE WEEK. MIX AND MATCH THE PIECES FOR VERSATILITY. A NICE BLAZER , A  WHITE SKIRT, DARK JEANS,  A FEMININE TOP  TO WEAR WITH THE CULOTTES AND SKIRTS.  AND MY FAVORITE SUMMER TIME PURSE. BLAZER & TOPS STYLISH BLAZER  THE SKIRTS  WHITE SKIRT THE SLACKS & JEANS SHOES & ACCESSORIES

 GET READY TO GO SWIMMING!!!! ITS THE ONE THING I LOVE ABOUT SUMMER  ALL THE GREAT SWIMSUITS AVAILABLE , BIKINIS,  ONE PIECES,   RACER BACK  AND THE TANKINI. I HAVE TO SAY THAT IS ONE STYLE OF SUIT, I DO LIKE BECAUSE IT IS PART BIKINI AND PART TANK TOP STYLE.  IT ALSO GIVES MORE COVERAGE IF YOU WANT TO WEAR THE TOP WITH A MAXI SKIRT OR A SARONG. AND IF YOU LIKE TO GET A BIT MORE SUN, SIMPLY FOLD IT UP . ITS NICE TO BE ABLE TO WEAR THE TOP AGAIN WITH OTHER PIECES. LOVELY CHIFFON COVER UP and ONE PIECE  A BLOUSE STYLE  AND SMART POLKA DOT SWIMSUIT   A RUFFLED TOP TANKINI WORN WITH SHORTS BLACK and WHITE COMBOS  - ONE PIECE,  COVERUPS AND TANKINI

FASHIONS  THAT ARE BARGAINS ARE NOT WHAT THE SEEM WHEN LOOKING ONLINE. I RECENTLY READ AN ARTICLE POSTED ON THE  INDEPENDENT FASHION BLOGGERS  PAGE.  ABOUT COMPANIES THAT ARE SELLING DRESSES, GOWNS THAT ARE LOOK ALIKES OF OTHER DESIGNS, OF COURSE THE PRICES ARE SUPER LOW , BUT THE QUALITY IS CHEAP OR NOT WHAT ONE EXPECTS. http://frame.bloglovin.com/?post=4824237852&blog=3889463 WELL SURPRISE, SURPRISE, I TOO  SAW THE EXACT SAME DRESS  ONLINE ON AMAZON. THOUGHT  LOOKS LOVELY AND WAS CONTEMPLATING IT, BUT HELD OFF. SO FOR ANYONE LOOKING FOR A BARGAIN BE AWARE THE PRODUCTS ARE NOT SUPER AS IT SEEMS.  ESPECIALLY NOW WITH GRADUATION TIME AROUND THE CORNER.  YOUNG LADIES ARE LOOKING FOR THOSE SPECIAL GOWNS TO WEAR TO THE EVENT AND GET A SCHOCK. SO MUCH FOR A BARGAIN.

HOPE THE WEEK WAS GOOD FOR YOU .  ITS FINALLY FRIDAY AND ONE CAN MAKE SOME PLANS FOR THE WEEKEND. VIEW OF THE START OF MARATHON ONE BIG EVENT HERE THIS WEEKEND  IS THE HUGE MARATHON. FOR THE SERIOUS RUNNER   JOGGER  ITS A SUPER EVENT AND OF COURSE THERE ARE THE  JOGGERS WHO PARTICIPATE FOR THEIR OWN  SATISFACTION. SO MANY RUNNERS, 40,000 + I AM NOT A RUNNER, (BAD KNEES), BUT I LIKE  TO CYCLE AND ONE THING THE CITY HAS WONDERFUL PLACES TO BICYCLE THROUGH  WITH BIKE LANES AND SAFE AREAS FOR THE CYCLISTS.  SO ITS A REAL PLEASURE TO RIDE ALONG PARTS OF THE DANUBE OR THE DANUBE ISLAND RECREATION AREAS. IF YOU DONT  HAVE BIKE YOU CAN ALWAYS RENT ONE FROM THE BIKE STANDS  ON THE STREETS.  WHAT A GREAT IDEA!! HAVE GREAT WEEKEND AND  BE HAPPY. CIAO LOVELIES!!!

IN THE NEWS FOR ANYONE  WHO LIKES TO KNOW WHAT IS THE STYLE OF THE VIENNESE http://kurier.at/lebensart/style/stilfrage-wieviel-sinn-fuer-mode-haben-wiener/191.014.173 IT SEEMS TO BE ACCORDING TO THE DISTRICT ONE LIVES IN. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT, IF YOU ARE A STUDENT YOUR STYLE IS DIFFERENT FOR THE AGE GROUP THEN FOR THE  OLDER  PERSON 30+ .  READING THE ARTICLE IN THE AUSTRIAN PAPER, IT MENTIONS NEW YORK WITH IT  SKY HIGH SHOES, FIGURE FORMING CLOTHES AND ALOT OF BLACK. PARISIENES STYLE  STRIPED TOPS , BALLERINA SHOES WITH JEANS. ACCORDING TO A BLOGGER , THE INNER CENTER STYLE  MOTTO IS MORE IS MORE. OTHER AREAS ARE HIPPER. OR VIENNA FASHIONS ARE NOT RISK TAKERS A MORE CLASSIC STYLE. PERHAPS , BUT I CAN SAY FOR SURE IT DEPENDS ALOT ON PEOPLES COMFORT LEVEL IN THE CLOTHES THEY WEAR. I RECALL BEING IN THE CENTER AND SEEING A MATURE LADY IN A COLORFUL CORAL BOMBER AND THE HEELED RUNNERS  AND  SHE LOOKED AMAZING . SO WHATEVER ...

THE SUMMER TEMPERATURES BRING OUT THE BICYCLES AND THE PEOPLE FOR A BIKE PARADE. NOTHING LIKE A SUNNY  SUNDAY AND THE CHANCE TO RIDE BIKES.  JUST FOR FUN THERE IS A BIKE PARADE AND AMAZING AMOUNT OF PEOPLE RIDING THEIR BICYCLES. MY KIND OF STYLE. COMFORTABLE SANDALS MY KIND OF STYLE FOR A SUNDAY BIKE RIDE AND LATER A ICE CREAM. ADDED T SHIRT UNDER SO IF HOT CAN WRAP   THIS SWEATER OVER MY SHOULDERS. NOT TO FORGET A PAIR OF SUNGLASSES AND A PICNIC BASKET! /////////  ENJOY A PICNIC iN THE PARK AFTER THE RIDE. RELAXING PICNIC AT THE PARK
