Romance, Wine & Movies// lifestyle, valentines day, Feb. 14th

Valentines day movie marathon. 
💘💕💖💝


Something I love to enjoy during the cold winter days and when it is a special day is to watch movies. And romantic love stories  are perfect, especially for Valentines Day.
Here are just a few that are worth seeing.


Somethings got to give, comedy romance. I love to see the house , a ideal seaside retreat. 
My favourite part.

As good as it gets -  a grumpy old man,  a single mom and the cutest dog. 
Love dogs, so have to watch it for that alone.


Sleepless in Seattle  an all time favourite, with adorable Meg Ryan. Two singles meeting by chance, thanks to a radio talk show and son. Whats not to love about that?

Ghost,  but not spooky, a love story with something different.

Love Story,  college romance, tender love and emotions of college sweethearts.

Breakfast at Tiffanys  - whats not to love, NY, Tiffanys and Audrey.
A truly heartwarming , feel good movie.


Some oldies but goodies🎥🎥

Casablanca  a true classic makes one believe love can endure anything. Bogart and Bergman together , makes it the best film.

African Queen  , another Bogart film. Adventure and comedy together with Katherine Hepburn in Africa.  A must see.

Houseboat, a comedy romance . life with a family living on a houseboat and the Italian housekeeper.


Those are just some of the many wonderful movies to see, there are  many more great ones.

What are some of your favourites? Have you seen any of these?

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?

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 so called stars  gorgeous , flawless and h
