THAT PERFECT GIFT// lifestyle

WORRY , WORRY , WORRY.

We all have someone on the Christmas list that we find hard to find that perfect gift.

Be it friends, family or a co- worker. I have always found it interesting what people give or get

as gifts. I have to say for myself, I have always received gifts that I liked , used or needed.

Of course there were a few that needed to be exchanged for another size, but mostly it was perfect.

Thinking back to gifts iI received from my dear friends, they were always such great gifts and something I loved. It was the thought and time that the person went to find a gift that was really

important and I felt so grateful for.

So now that the holiday season is here, it is time to think what to get. I read a very inspiring

article about the idea of getting that PERFECT gift. Something that sometimes is not so easy to do.

Mostly we hope to find a gift that the other person will like. But it seems according to the article

things that someone can use is best choose . It was not always the cost of the gift that matters, but more that the person could use it or it was useful .

Well that sounds like a good way to start. So whatever you give or get, it is the thought that counts.

For myself and I am sure others, pyjamas and slippers are always welcome. (and of course perfumes)

There are also those gadgets for the techno or home, but my mom always said, 'Never give a woman a household item'. Why? I suppose because it is something for the house and not personal ; and I have to agree.

Here is a list of things that may be ideal, of course it also depends on the person and their interests.
There are so many great things to find, it can be overwhelming but a list is one way to start.
So happy shopping.

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.

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?
