ENJOYING THE WEEKEND//Lifestyle

HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYONE!

Hopefully those that were getting into the shopping mania of Black Friday survived.  It can be a stressful time for some that are looking for a certain item or trying to get the best deal . Who doesn't like a great deal, right? So after all the hype and shopping time to relax and put the feet up.
Thought I would share some interesting stories from around the world. you might like to read.



I was reading a fun article about Japan and photo booths. 

Do you remember those? Most shopping malls had them. Step into the booth , deposit your money and wait for the flash then get a strip of photos. I can remember the times a friend and I tried it. 
Now a days photo booths have become techno,  photos can be almost photoshopped. Change  your eye shape , color,  make lips bigger or smaller - you get the picture. You can read more about it here.



PET LOVERS this a heartwarming article hero dogs. I love dogs or pets  and reading about these dogs that are rescuing lives is extra moving.  I can relate to the story because we had a beautiful German Shepard dog that was part of  the family for years. He was extremely clever,  as a matter of fact he did save a mans life. The young man had taken the dog with him on a camp trip. One day he decided to take a swim and dived off a dock into the water.  Our dog was up at the family cabin , then suddenly he raced down the hill to the water, swam in and grabbed on to the young mans arm. Whether he pulled him onto shore , this i don't know -  but his family ran down to see  and realized something was wrong. The young guy was pulled from the water unable to move. In hospital it was discovered he had broken his neck. So knowing that our pet saved a mans  life  is heartwarming.



HIGH FASHION NEWS - well we would all love to have a designer item, be it a designer bag or shoes. Well in China there are stores that appear to sell designer products like PRADA or LV.
Only thing the stores are not the real thing and neither are the items - check out the the news NON PRADA SHOPS

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.  What were your favorite things you bought in 2023!?  Whether clo

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.
