HOLIDAYS+MOVIES// LIFESTYLE

HOW ABOUT A MOVIE?

 I admit I love movies and really enjoy watching them  when its Christmas time. Its the absolute best
part (after dinner or present openings) As custom in some parts of Europe Christmas dinner and gift opening is done on the 24th , unlike America .  So after the festivities are over its time to stretch out and watch some movies.   Or to get in to the mood watch some before.
Here are some movies that we have always watched  and I adore them all.
  • First off, THE Grinch ,the new one is out in theatres  but I still like to see the original one from the 60s   So who else likes the Grinch  hands up?
  • Another one that makes me smile is Charlie Browns Christmas,  Lucy and Charlie, Linus and the gang are so adorable and make Christmas a very special time.
  • POLAR EXPRESS  a delight to watch.
  • PENGUINS adorable movie even for the big kids. 
  • A good laugh is what we all need, after the hectic rush to get things ready. So the Home Alone film is truly a hilarious film. I am sure you have all seen it, right? 
  • Another not so heard of film that  i can say will make you smile and giggle is one with Ralphie and his family,  A typical family life  and the all the funny things that happen at that time of year. Truly hilarious.  A CHRISTMAS STORY is made for this time of year
  • What is Christmas without snow! A very touching movie with  a boy and his grandpa sharing his story of how Christmas was when he was a young boy. Its based on the poem of Dylan Thomas - A CHILDS CHRISTMAS IN WALES.
  • The classics and nothing is more classic then Charles Dickens, A CHRISTMAS CAROL:
  • There are several versions  two of my favourites  are the ones with Alastair Simms or George C Scott. Both are worth watching.
  • FRENCH films and any with Catherine Deneuve are worth watching. A CHRISTMAS TALE,  (Un conte de Noel)  subtitles . A family gathering at Christmas with a twist.  love Catherine always and  the french humor!



 There are several others that are really good from a musical White Christmas to the famous  Miracle on 34th street .  .

 What are some of your favourites ? I could always add a new film to my list.

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.  ...
