MUSIC MADNESS ....... and more

Hi everyone, hope your weekend was a pleasant one and all the Moms were treated royally. 





MUSIC LOVERS 


Well for the weekend I ,we were totally immersed in watching the Eurovision song contest. For those who don't know about it  or maybe only heard something about it. Well let me tell you it is  a very BIG event in Europe.  Just to give you an idea, Celine Dion  sang at the  contest and i do believe she won.  And of course ABBA  made it big from it.

So basically all of Europe is part of it,  as is Australia as a guest .  I was lucky enough to actually see the contest live  here   a WÖW moment.   For anyone who loves music and live performances it is
the best show in town. This year it was held in beautiful Portugal.

25 performances, and voting done by public and a jury. IT lasts hours, so a die hard fan will be watching it till the early hours.  Even here  some restaurants and theatres were holding  song contest parties.    ITs almost as crazy as the soccer events.


Some of my favourites from the event... the songs and singers

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

 Doing Denim  I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable.  For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short.  I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days.  Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it.  Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets.  There are so many ways to style a denim dress.  A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses  I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck. 

Favorite Things 2023//fashion , items

 Favorite things  I really didn’t go overboard with any purchases in 2023.  Trying to keep to the sustainable fashion idea  of shopping my closet or using what I have .  Mind you there were somethings I thought about getting like a new pair of sunglasses, some shoes  sandals, new purse , but I still need new sunglasses. My old pair has some scratches on them sadly.  The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again.  Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring.  The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece.   The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it  was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents.  It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it.  ...
