WORLD KINDNESS WEEK

A KINDNESS CHALLENGE

This week is KINDNESS WEEK. Something that the world needs now, especially with all the negative news around. So its a nice idea to share . I only read about Kindness week and thought what a great idea.

According to studies done in the states, there is a link to kindness and living a longer life.
Now that sounds very interesting, to imagine that when we are kinder to others it not only makes them feel good but it also can help us. The study shows that any small gesture can have a profound effect on a persons mind it can lower blood pressure, relief stress .

There are so many ways to show kindness in small ways. helping someone carry their bags, giving up your seat for an elderly person or young mom, baking cookies for a sick neighbour, sending a card , or holding the door open for someone. These small things can mean a lot to someone.

I know for myself it does make you feel noticed. I often see young people on the metro sitting well an senior person is left standing. It makes me think, what a shame . Or if someone is standing in a grocery line with only few items and your cart is full, to let them go ahead of you. Simple small
acts like that doesn't cost anything and to me seems like the right thing to do.

A book titled the The Rabbit Effect by Columbia University doctor Kelli Harding , studied the effect
of kindness and the results. It helps your immune system, lowers blood pressure and helps one to live longer. Clearly all of those facts are a good thing.

So today , this week or month its a good time to share some kindness with others.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYONE!!

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.

SPRING LOOK //Fashion , Style, Spring

Time for some color Finally the weather is warmer and can wear lighter clothes. I especially like to start the summer/spring with some color . One of my favorites is a colorful knit on I bought years ago , a Liz Clairborn design. It’s a piece that just say spring is here. After a long , cold winter of wearing mostly dark or muted shades it’s nice to bring out something bright a cheery.
