SOMETHING NEW// Fashion

A FEW THINGS.... shopping , fashions, trips?

Well it is nearly the end of July, like many places the news is all about the virus. It can get overwhelming for many. We have been through lockdown, but like some European countries
things slowly started to open( carefully mind you). Borders opened then closed, but still some are open. Meanwhile we have been taking it careful.

I had been looking forward to a trip in the spring, that didn't happen. But sooner or later we might be taking a short trip just a nice change of scenery.

I thought I should get something different to wear just in case plus the sales are in full swing.
A new dress suitable for summer holidays or wearing around town .

SHIRRING... MY STYLE

I am a big fan of polka dots , maxi and midi dresses for summer. So my search for something was worth it. I found my ideal dress - the style is very comfortable with long sleeves, shirred top and open neckline.

Its actually a very small floral print, but looks almost like polka dots. The sleeves and top part have the shirred elastic so it fits close but has stretch ( ideal for fuller busts), plus the length is okay.

Its a cute dress, only thing one needed to size down, as it is very full big, a bit to much material .

Dressing it up - a nice pair of wedge shoes and small bag
Red gives it a pop of colour.

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!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people . Festivals , Films and Fashion The festival season is winding down, but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it! The return of Clooney on screen in Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight. Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show! Of course there were other stars on the red carpet but no outstanding dresses . Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not sure what I be tempted to watch. Julia Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment. One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
