FASHION on FILM// fashion, lifestyle

FEELING BORED? WHAT ABOUT A MOVIE?

Yes being inside the four walls for weeks can get to one, but I found watching a movie or two

one of the ways to keep ones mind off the situation. So I thought I would like to see something

fashion related. Especially now when the idea of going shopping for fashion is not possible.

Thought it would inspire me to get more dressed up or at least make an effort. Perhaps even spark

a interest to get something new for summer. Even if just for wearing at home.

COCO before CHANEL

One film I had seen years ago was about Coco Chanel , a look at her early life from a young girl

who learnt to sew well living in a convent, to meeting the rich and opening her first shop.

And the rest is history. the film is worth watching for the scenery and lifestyle back then

So I will enjoy getting to see it again

DEVIL WEARS PRADA
Another one that we all know is with Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep, seeing how she and her assistant getting to work in a fast paced, crazy fashion magazine. Her change of style ,love the outfits!
Both are wonderful in this film.

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? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h

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.
