LIFE LATELY earthy things// lifestyle, wellness, life in lockdown

 EARTH DAY CELEBRATED

It is  a wonderful way to give back something to the environment and earth. I am waiting to plant the flowers  but we did get something more for outside,  some berry bushes - blueberries and boysenberries .  Something we love are blueberries ,   a summer treat  so can't wait to  taste a juicy berry.

The other thing that needed tending was my compost project that i started a few months ago. So will be able to add the much needed compost to the pots.  Its amazing how well it worked with out any added cost. A BONUS.  Have you tried composting?



PARTY Time to celebrate

The last week was pretty busy as we celebrated family birthdays, (in lockdown again) so  nothing big planned. But this weekend  it is the Oscar awards something I look forward to every year. So will enjoy the weekend, see the winners and sip some bubbly.  Cheers!

Every morning we have the enjoyment of hearing the birds chirping.
It really does feel like nature is right outside our door. I also find it so
relaxing to hear ,  its like meditating with nature.

Talking about meditating, if you like the sounds of birds here is a video to provide you with something to meditate to.

  1. Beautiful post by the way. It’s lovely you are getting into nature; I would be interested to hear more about this. I planted some flowers this morning so it’s just a case of watering them now and I’m hopeful to see them come up! :-) xx

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.  ...
