Oh lovely days// lifestyle, earth day, staying home,

HAPPY EARTH DAY, EVERYONE!

April 22nd is a day to celebrate... though we might not think about it these days.
But really after reading or seeing photos of cities that suffered from severe pollution,
cities with polluted waters and other things. There is something to celebrate, the air is cleaner. the water is clearer and nature has appeared on city streets, certainly unusual but it maybe a good thing
to see how we humans have made a big impact on the earth, via polluted the air and water.

So even if we are not happy about being in lockdown there has been a benefit in a many other ways.

Today we can perhaps do some small things around our places , clean up the yard, plant some flowers or a tree, set up a birdhouse, add a bird bath, even on a balcony it can be a space to enjoy.
Planting flowers that attract the birds, bees and butterflies is ideal.

I especially love to sit outside and get the new plants in the pots, hang up wind chimes.
One feature I do love are water features, the one pictured is simple and looks like easy to maintain.

A natural water feature with rocks , rise and grasses .

nature in the garden

Over here some gardens will have small gnomes throughout , hidden in the flowers
or set up along paths.

Well today I guess I will take a trip to the store and find some plants to add to my

garden and get my garden gloves and enjoy the sunshine.

Hope you will be able to do the same where you are.

Get a chair sit by the window or out on your balconies

Have a great day everyone!

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

Doing Denim I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable. For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short. I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days. Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it. Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets. There are so many ways to style a denim dress. A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck.

Favorite Things 2023//fashion , items

Favorite things I really didn’t go overboard with any purchases in 2023. Trying to keep to the sustainable fashion idea of shopping my closet or using what I have . Mind you there were somethings I thought about getting like a new pair of sunglasses, some shoes sandals, new purse , but I still need new sunglasses. My old pair has some scratches on them sadly. The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again. Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring. The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece. The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents. It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it. ...
