FABULOUS FRAGRANCES// gift idea

💕For the Love of Fragrances💕

There is something about christmas and the shops filled with lights, trees and shoppers that is really exciting, especially if wandering around the city centre. The shops are all different and small.

Of course there are the bigger department stores , but smaller shops are just so cozy.

But what really thrills me most is seeing a shop filled with fragrances and

the fabulous gift sets that each perfumeries offer for the season.

For me this is the best time to get a new fragrance with the extras.

What is nice about gift sets there are usually other items included, be it perfume, eau de toilette or lotions so it is a good way to try the products.

So to share some fragrance that I hope to find tucked under the tree. Here are some to try from

Gaultier to Givenchy. There are so many. Hopefully you will find a gift set under the tree this year.

Fragrances are such a personal thing , some like floral scents , others might

like more woody spice tones. I have my favourite but sometimes it nice to

try something different.

What are some of your favourite fragrances?

Do you like the classics or like to change it up.

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

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. 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 computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of?
