YOU LOOK NICE// fashion, life

 A SIMPLE COMPLIMENT 

Its not everyday someone gives someone a compliment  which is rather a sad fact.   If I see a person that has a lovely haircut or is wearing something  nice like a perfume or outfit , I will tell them or ask them what fragrance they are wearing.  It is amazing how the person then starts to talk to you and also they have a happy smile. So it makes a persons day!


Something so simple as a nice compliment is something we all appreciate. Whether it is what we wear, something we made or have done.  Its also one way to brighten someones day and acknowledge  their efforts or achievements. This is especially important for children, as it gives them confidence and a feeling of achievement. Think back to your younger years for example in school, if you got a gold star or good mark on a project , how happy you felt.

  1. Loved this post by the way! I think it’s good to give compliments, and a way to talk to new people. I’m also always interested in seeing how other people put an outfit together or have done something else creative. :-) xx

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.
