OCTOBER IDEAS// lifestyle, @home

🎃🍃 Happy October Everyone! 🍁🍂🍂

Here the feeling of fall is in full swing, chilly crisp mornings and the trees are turning golden. Its getting darker earlier too.

I have to say I was a bit down when the flowers outside started to die off. The terrace lost all the lovely colours that I loved to sit outside with over summer. But not to despair, there are things I can do to make sure we have some colours still and later in spring.

I got some heather to plant in the pots and it really revived the area with the colors of white, deep purples and crimson. It really adds a lot. Plus they are winter hardy and should grow back.

VAN GOGHS IRISES

Another plan is get bulbs and plant them now, so there are flowers and a burst of colour

for spring. The usual flower that comes to mind are tulips but there are many spring bulbs to choice from , my favourites are the Irises. So now is the time to get them planted.

MORE BEAUTIFUL IRISES

I can't wait to see them bloom in the spring.

(fingers crossed)

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.
