EXOTIC STYLE// fashion

CAFTAN & COMFORT

I was never one to wear caftans , a maxi dress for summer was more what i like, but I found this one caftan that was to me simply gorgeous . The colors and the print  of gold , blue, accents of black and  other colors was just to lovely to resist. So I bought a long  and a short one.

It looks so exotic  with some golden accessories , perhaps it is why I like the beautiful prints on saris.
The silks and details of some are absolutely exquisite .


So when  the summer heat starts here or when on holidays I plan to wear it a lot. The silkiness and comfort of it is amazing.   And the shorter version is going to be my go to coverup over a swim suit.


So I am a convert.   A caftan or two might be my go to holiday item, paired with some simple flat sandals , and VOILA  a bit of chic .


There is nothing more exotic then a beautiful peacock,  the vibrant colours, blues , greens  golds and black  was what I thought when I saw the colours in this caftan.

Pockets please!!/ fashion

  Well as the title says…. Pocket s please!  This week has been a very painful week. I recently injured my knee badly. Not able to move stand or walk. When finally bit better I finally  managed to move . I needed something to wear that I could put my phone in , glasses medicine in. Any dress I thought I could use didn’t have pockets for anything.  Why???  When I think back there usually  were pocket inserts nicely sewn  on inside of slacks or dresses.  Now you rarely find that .  I guess it’s a cost saving , less material needed and no extra time used sewing a pockrr er r in.  Maybe it’s to give an outfit a more neat look, no bulging pockets.   Meanwhile mens wear there are always pockets.  Do you like outfit with pockets?  

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
