FUN THINGS in FEBRUARY 🎩🎶💃

This month will be one filled with some very exciting events .

February is all about dressing up, in many different ways.

Firstly it is the ball season, so the setting is formal wear.

The grande dame of the Ball season is the Opernball held every year

near the end of the month. Its held in the magnificent opera house , a very

ornate and beautiful building built in the 1860s is located in the centre (easy to get to).

The opera house will be the showcase of the city with many people attending,

the usual officials, businesses, stars and celebrities.

This years invited celebrity was Lindsey Vonn , but she was unable to attend. Instead

an Italian movie star will be the guest. Past famous guests were Sophia Loren, Hilary Swank,

Goldie Hawn and many others.

Well here is a peek at the opera house and the interiors. The balcony areas are like private booths

that are set up with a table and chairs for the guests. The evening starts with the entrance of

young men and ladies dressed in tuxedos and white ballgowns, and start the evening with waltzes

that they have practiced over weeks. All together in sync. So it is quite the scene to see them all twirling around. There is also ballet performers and opera singers that perform.

The opera house was also part of movies in Mission impossible with Tom Cruise, where he

is running thorough and sliding down the outside of the building.

An amazing night in an amazing grand place.

You can also take a guided tour of the place if you really want to see more.

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!...

Keeping Warm - Fashion Style

POP of COLOR Yes it is something we all want need. Keeping warm in the cold winter months. One of favorite knit top has been my steady Look. The fact it has a large cowl neck collar that I pull up over my face when it’s windy outside. It is comfortable and feels cozy . The color is vibrant on those dull dreary days . A pop of color is nice to see during the winter season when mostly black seems to be the color of choice. The Accessories . I love to add a few accessories also. Bracelets add a little interest to the look . The three sterling silver bangles worn over sleeve looks good , as well as the multi twist bracelet. Ps The photo does not show the true color . It’s a very vibrant blue shade . Looks dull . After a few retakes no change. Camera issues.
