INSTAGRAMMERS PLUS/ FASHION, SOCIAL MEDIA

 Are you a follower of instagrammers? 


I admit I have a few favourites  I check out now and then. but I am not a big follower of instagram really. When you look at fashion most instagrammers are probably in the ages from 20s to 30s.  Its not usual to see anyone much older , I don't think. 

There are perhaps a handful of women over the age of 40 , that were either fashion models -Christy Brinkley, Claudia Schiffer or fashion editors and designers or celebrities.  But I have to say, I find it interesting to see more ages shown. It adds to the imagination, something different, a different style.  


One article that caught my eye was about a an Indian actress who has a instagram feed,  and she is a mature senior woman.  She has become popular with her looks , but some looks are not so welcome. Reason being she is a Senior , lives in a conservative country where at a certain age you have to look a certain way or dress a certain way.  In one photo she is wearing a denim dress,  and some people did not approve of it. WHY?  She started to get trolled because of these photos. 




Hard to imagine that mindset still exists in the 2020s,  Personally I think she looks great for her age! So more power to her.

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.  ...
