HOW to WEAR TWEED//fashions

TWEED OR CHECK PRINT

Fall it seems is when tweeds or checks appear for the fall season. Tweed blazer, slacks or skirts are something we can always use in our closet. It is a definite print that works well in a more casual style - wear it with denim ,or sportswear a hoodie or nice knit dress. And a pair of over the knee boots. or a patent leather skirt. A very chic look.

Tweeds alway make me think British . It really is a smart look if you pair it with something else - not head to toe tweed.
(My favourite tweed blazer is still hanging in the closet. a dark brown with some red . and those leather patched elbows. The cut is more feminine and its great worn over a scarlet red knit. It more or less a staple for fall, its works well with denim too.)

So give tweed a try this fall. A new season and a new look to try.

Blazer, skirt, white T-shirt and a great boot.

Same with the check prints, I love a nice Check coat , for fall time. Its a piece that is almost like the leopard print, a print that lasts forever - like the gingham print.

So what ever you wardrobe is missing be it a tweed or check there are so many styles to
find.

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
