ENJOYING the WEEKEND// Lifestyle, Travel

WHERE TO SOAK 

In the city there is no shortage of places to go swim with over 50 swimming places from indoor pools to outdoors, take you pick. They are located all over the city. 
Swimming was  made popular in the early 1900s , when the city setup swimming areas 
around the danube.  It created a mini holiday for the working classes. 

Some of the indoor pools are amazing because of their architecture. A art deco styles, modern and many others . The outdoor locations are also well worth a visit, from the island Ganselhof with its
individual cabins and large grassy areas, or those that like to try diving at a laareberg. 
 There is something for everyone.

This weekend turns out to be hot again, so it is a good idea to go swimming

ART DECO POOLS
The famous Amalienbad with its mosaic walls and stain glass .  Here you can also
get  massages or foot care, suntanning  or enjoy drinks in the restaurant,

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

 SOMETHING DIFFERENT  I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui ,  I was in AWE.   Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The  prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top  that I wear as a coverup)  This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS  love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for  summer. JUST BLENDING IN CHECKERBOARD ANYONE? find out more about her work   here   Thandiwe via BBC images via Thandiwe Murui

I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians  or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises  such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person.

These so called stars  gorgeous , flawless and h
