ENJOYING THE WEEKEND// lifestyle decor

LAZY SUNDAY MORNINGS

Yes that says it all.... today is one of those days! No energy or feeling of - Lets go somewhere.
Do you have days like that? Today is more a day i rather stay home, and maybe bake or plant some
flowers.

Well my luck with flowers or plants are not great, its seems like not much will grow. The problem is we have a north exposure and limited sunshine. I have tried lavender, hydrangeas, rose plant, irises and other bulbs but with some or very little success. And the annoying thing is I love flowers and gardens. That being said , we have a cedar tree in a pot and it has survived and grown tall. So 1 out of 10 is not bad.

So finally i thought i will check out faux plants to get some greenery. A faux lavender or hydrangea
Plus when we go on holidays won't need someone to water the plants. I figure that is a good idea .

So lets get started and make it green starting with a few pots to hold the plants.

Hanging or freestanding
both are nice to add some interest and shapes in the space, whether a patio, balcony or terrace.

SOME GREAT FAUXS

the look of a french garden with a lovely lavender plant

look amazing , this adds some height and does look real too.

ROSES ANYONE?

roses , hydrangeas or peonies

take you pick, something with more

stems and multiple flowers

will look more real.

NOT ONLY FLOWERS but some greenery adds to space and make it look more like
a real garden.

GLOVES are always needed, even for looking after faux plants or if you have live ones.

So how does your garden grow, do you have a garden or small space for plants you love?

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. ...
