THE BIG CHILL/fashions

LOOKING STYLISH on  CHILLY DAYS

My one favourite thing about the cooler temperatures is  the fact I can start to wear more knits, sweaters   and one of my other favourites are sweater dresses.

I like the ease of a dress worn with tights and boots.
  Sometimes outfits with more then one piece
are to uncomfortable under coats or to bulky-
so a simple sweater dress is ideal. 
Even for work office or especially if you are in a hurry.

I actually have a few sweater dresses in various colors-  black, navy red, and maroon. Even with those
i would like some other shades or designs.



BASIC BLACK WITH PLEATED DETAILS  
a classic style ... worn under a check coat  
stylish and chic



BOLD COLOR 
love the color and the cowl neckline ,length is great with boots.




A VERY FEMININE STYLE

off shoulder or wide collar is very feminine
the soft knit sure to be comfortable to wear also.
paired with grey boots or white , 




PUFF SLEEVES

soft grey with puff sleeve  
casual comfort or office style
wear with check coat, animal prints or 
pair of snake skin boots
very stylish"

A SIMPLE CHANGE - beauty matters

Image
  I love a change now and then , but lets face it, it is not always possible or can be to expensive if you follow trends . Shopping for new things can really add up and also adds more clutter to our closets. Of course we can donate some items or sell online. But it is also a good idea to look for pieces that will last for several years. I have some pieces in my closet that would be considered vintage. Linen suit or a designer knit top.   SIMPLE CHANGES  Sometimes I like a simple change . One of my favourite ways to make a change are my nails.  A new nail polish is always  so fun to try. Not only does it look nice but it can cheer one up to have a simple change. I have tried many different brands of polishes, once i find a colour I love I make sure to get extra, because nothing is more annoying if it is discontinued.  SO now is time for a simple easy change.   What about you? Do you like to change your nail polish colours?

THE PLUS SIDE OF FASHION

BEING A PLUS  THE OTHER DAY I CAME ACROSS AN ARTICLE ABOUT THE TEN FAMOUS PLUS SIZE MODELS.  I THINK IT IS GREAT TO SEE THE WOMAN WITH MORE CURVES MAKING CHANGES IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY, AND IT IS ALSO A GOOD BUSINESS IDEA. BUT I LOOK AT THOSE MODELS - THEY ARE MODELS AND AGAIN IT IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE THAT WOMAN THAT ARE PLUS SIZE ARE AS TALL AS THOSE GIRLS. SO A SIZE 18 PLUS  ON SOMEONE TALLER LOOKS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THEN ON SOMEONE SHORTER. SO AGAIN IT REALLY IS NOT THE NORM FOR MOST GIRLS OR WOMEN, THE AVERAGE HEIGHT OF 5,2  TO 5,6. IT IS WONDERFUL TO SEE THE YOUNGER WOMEN BEING PART OF THE RUNWAYS OR FASHION MAGAZINES AND ITS A GREAT INSPIRATION FOR THOSE THAT READ OR FOLLOW INSTAGRAM. WELL I WAS LOOKING AT THE SOME OF THE PHOTOS OF THESE MODELS, SO MANY WERE PHOTOS OF SWIMWEAR OR POSES THAT WERE OVERLY SEXY. MORE AND MORE IMAGES SEEM TO SHOW CURVY WOMAN IN POSES THAT ARE NOT ABOUT THE FASHION BUT SOMETHING ELSE.   THIS TO ME IS  A BIG SHAME, AS IT MAKES WOMAN

THE PERFECT - OUTDOOR HIKING RAINWEAR / FASHION

APRIL SHOWERS...... MAKE THAT MAY SHOWERS Hi everyone, been a while since I last posted, but really with lockdowns wasn't much to share . Fashions were all about comfort and loungewear . How many loungewear posts can one look at. But now that we are finally over lockdowns and travel is soon possible , there are things to look forward to. Like getting outdoors, going for hikes or camping.  We have had a mixed bag of weather  lately, some hot days followed by cooler, then rainy days. Its actually nice to have some rain. I like how fresh the air is after a good downpour.   One thing needed for such unusual weather is a decent jacket : I don't mind to be out in the rain, so long as I have the right jacket or coat. I like  a hooded one that covers one well and protects your head. I use to have  a  longer nylon  jacket with a concealed hood hidden in the collar , which was nice and compact for travel and didn't look like  sportswear.  But now  I wanted one with some extras. I fou
