A Model Diversity

DIVERSITY IN MODELLING

When we think of models I am sure most think of young girls of 16 or 18 years old, and the more
recognizable models such a Kate, Bella, Naomi or Claudia. All are a major player in the fashion industry.   

Seeing more diversity is a great thing.

Diversity is important but we don't see it much on the runways.  But it is changing slowly and
there are some older models, curvy models and many others. I recently came across an article
where a woman in  her 60s has started to model.The article    HERE  She appeared in a HM campaign wearing a swimsuit.  So wow much has changed. It is wonderful woman of all ages being shown.
I can recall a woman saying , 'After a certain age women become invisible'. it was a bit of shock to hear. My thought how can that be, why?  

The reason basically is the fashion industry or designers use only the youthful girls 
and seldom do you see woman of certain age on runways. 
But I also think women as they get older  lose interest in trying something different and new.
Their looks stay the same or their taste in clothes is dated.  I don't mean that women need to
dress like a 20 year old, but perhaps with more color or change of accessories to the wardrobe.
Whether 50 60 or 80, women of all ages can look wonderful.


Here are just a few ladies that look fabulous from  a model to  actresses.
They are stylish, glamorous and beautiful!

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

Sunny Days Eyewear//fashion , designer eyewear

T HE RIGHT ONEs  Summer and the sun is something we all look forward to. Getting outside enjoying the sunshine but most important is to to protect your eyes!  I have been looking for a new pair of sunglasses.  Thinking I might get a pair of design ones, Chanel , Gucci ??  Well more importantly is to get a pair with a higher UV number .  Apparently there is no difference from a designer pair or a pair from any shop .  Other than the price.style or quality.  Looking at and trying sunglasses checking fit is important .  The style look and what suits you are all things to consider .  The UV protection is what really matters  also something I didn’t know was the side part of thin matters also. Why?  If to thin UV rays can enter and effect your eyes. So the sides of sun glasse is something else to  consider .  Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
