LE CHIC MODE

Wh at is the first thing you do when spring arrives??? I think most of us are glad that finally spring is here. The longer days, warmer weather, not to mention the spring flowers . All things we enjoy.  I especially enjoy getting outside in the garden or going for a bike ride. Finally being able to clear away somethings outside which I find is great .  One thing I have been meaning to get are carrying baskets to mount on the bike. Something I really need to hold shopping 🛍️ r books . Inside Out  Something I enjoy at this time of year is to set out some spring flowers inside .  Bunchesxof tulips or daffodils. They  add so much to a space. Plus they brighten up a room.  Another nice idea is to add some decorative  touches. I never seem to have enough vases    I found these cute spring inspired ones  to set up on  table or the nightstand  Think it says ….. Sspring is here  Enjoy your springtime

The Oscar night  I was excited to get to see the glamorous fashions from Oscar night. So many beautiful gowns The sparkle and the glitz is always something wonderful to see. There were some that were my favorites and some that didn’t really appeal to me Tthe elegant black gowns , gowns of  gorgeous colors and the sparkly versions.  The show stopper for me was the fabulous red gown worn by model Cara ,  Here are more photos from the night to see  https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-64935067

 Oscars night is around the corner. One of the biggest nights for the movie industry, but also a great time to see what the stars are wearing.  There have been some unforgettable, memorable designs . Some showstoppers !  One I always will remember isotherm Swan dress worn by Bjork, the Icelandic songwriter.  Of course there are many others. Designers who have dressed the stars like Dior, Chanel and many others.  But today it’s all about the dramatic looks from past Oscar nights .

  Today is a day women around the  world celebrate  on this day March 8 1908  Women had in New York marched in protest to have shorter workdays , a right to vote  These changes brought about things that we today enjoy but still there are many things that need to change or be improved.  Around the world today we see young girls and young women not allowed to attend school, get an education , to feel safe on the streets , or working in factories for low pay . Doing the same job as a man but earning less.  Of course not all things are bad. There are women astronauts, doctors, lawyers roles that were exclusively male dominated.  There are women politicians, presidents and prime ministers.  So women have come a long way in the last 111 years.  You can read more about it here  https://www.bbc.com/news/world-64723201
