THE PERFECT MODEL//fashion

TO SKINNY OR TO FAT

It has finally happened, 2 major big fashion houses DIOR and Gucci have decided that the models they have on the runways will have to be a certain size. No more super skinny and hurray to that. Time that it happened and shows that woman need to be healthy and not overly thin.

Of course the fashion houses , fashion designers want to show the clothes so they appeal to women consumers. But most woman are not size 0 , or model size. Don't get me wrong I love fashions and all the beautiful clothes.

But fit and healthy is important for young girls growing up . Its something when i was younger never thought about, being super thin . I suppose I was more a tomboy or sport lover. So worrying about my size never really mattered. Of course now as older, its even more important but sadly much harder. No longer the size small or medium. But more important is to be healthy, whatever ones size. Be it an XS or XL its your HEALTH that matters most.

So its something one can't avoid or help, if genetics is the key - we are genetically built, be it tall or short, big or small.

So I have realized more important is to be happy, healthy and enjoy all the things in life one can. Be it a small thing or big thing .

Don't sweat the size of your clothes , its not the be all and end all of the world.

Smile, walk proudly and show your personality and confidence . Fashion is only a small part of ones life , more important is taking care of your body and your health.

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.

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
