THE THREE WELLS..... // Lifestyle, fashion, travel wellness

 WELL READ , WELL TRAVELLED & WELL DRESSED


These words popped into my head the other day.... thinking about how some people are just that.  Someone you meet randomly and started a conversation with.  Its those few moments that you get a impression of what  that person is like.  Impressions ... how quickly the mind makes a mental note of the meeting.   Is there someone you know that strikes you like that?


WELL READ

Reading.. I love books to look at for inspiration, for letting my mind wonder and dream, or solve the story  Mysteries were one of my favourites. During the pandemic I thought i would look at reading some books that I might not normally read, so my idea was to start to read some of the books that were awarded the Nobel Peace prize. A good idea!  So to start the reading journey i started with love.(love in the time of Cholera)  and i am still reading it. Its a love story and one worth a read if you like romance.



What books have your been reading lately?


WELL TRAVELLED


How much did you miss the daily outings or travels? 
I for one seem to have come to love being home, sitting outside and enjoying the place more then ever. What a difference.  Of course now that things are getting back to normal I we might take a trip later in the fall, once its safe to journey more places.  I have always loved to travel, explore , see different places. Could be anywhere, not just the more touristy places - from the smaller cities and towns to the great outdoors. There is always something interesting to see.   

Are you planning any trips this summer? Where to? 



WELL DRESSED

There is something about a person that is well dressed... they are noticeable memorable . But then I think its not only about looking trending or following trends, it also the confidence that one exudes or the quality of the things worn,  A well tailored suit or dress,  is what really is noticeable.   It doesn't always have to be designer, a mix is good. 




I try to stick to the classic pieces and add a few small trendy pieces i.e. jewelry or a purse. But usually I pick what  i love.  Keeping to basic classics is always a good start.  It might seem boring , but it is a base to start with.

LOVE this check biker style blazer  a bit of a modern twist on a blazer.

  1. Loved this post by the way! Such a great idea. I would enjoy hearing more about what you’ve been reading whether that’s mysteries or Nobel Peace Prize awarded. While I love being home, I miss traveling too; I liked visiting Haworth last year in the Spring. I mostly like dressing in classic pieces too. :-) xx

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. JUST BLENDING IN CHECKERBOARD ANYONE? find out more about her work   here   Thandiwe via BBC images via Thandiwe Murui

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
