CLOSET CURE// fashion

Image
I am certain by now everyone has heard of the Kondo effect. .  The organizational guru that has written books about how to declutter our places and life. I really think what helps  the most is being ORGANIZED  and keeping things in one spot. It makes life so much easier to find things when you need it. Whether it is your clothing, medicines, or documents. When it comes to clothing  I can remember my mom would take all the winter wear out of the closets from coats , sweaters and wools items, those would be placed into a garment hanger with cedar balls to prevent moths devouring them.  Then the summer or spring items would be hung. So this idea was one I have tried to follow, but living in a smaller space it makes it a bit challenging. Luckily I have extra closet space , that is separated and I hang the coats, and dresses in.  The other part is for blazers tops blouses etc,  or the lighter pieces. And it works well, but it is getting over stuffed or hard to see  what there is. Re

SPRING STYLING white &navy// fashions

     SPRING SEASON calls for something white. White always looks crisp and clean,: and does brighten up a outfit. I am especially fond of the navy and white combo. Whether its wearing jeans with a t-shirt , or skirts Today i thought i show you a look that is  easy to wear and comfortable too. Starting with a linen blazer, a  fun stripped slack, slip ons and a great scarf, that can be worn in so many ways . around your neck, tied around your hair or as a accessory on a purse.

THE IMPORTANCE OF.... /Lifestyle - Health

#This post is one I thought i have to write and share , because for me and many woman it is a VERY crucial matter. There is so much talk on blogs and the fashion industry about  plus size woman,  or about body positivity. I am like many woman that has had issues with weight  and this even when i was younger was not a problem , not until perhaps late teens when we become more self conscious about ones shape or size. I would think i was to heavy if i looked at photos taken as a teenager, but the fact was I was not overweight , it was just my critical view that made me feel that way.  As young girls our bodies change and our shape.  AND THIS IS NORMAL! But more important is to keep HEALTHY.  I just recently read an article about a  beautiful model (plus size) who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. The thing that struck me was she was very young, but when she went to doctors with her issue , she was told she needed to work out, lose weight - the usual comments a woman will hear.

SPRING IN OUR STEP - Fashions

-- SIX SHOES for SPRING -- IT DEFINITELY FEELS LIKE SPRING I am so so glad once the days are longer and the temperature rises.  The moment that temperatures get above 10 then i feel like its time to bring out the more open shoes, let the feet breathe so to speak.   Another thing is I love shoes, just wish I had a bigger closet to keep them. Well perhaps I should invest under bed storage, then voila problem solved. Meanwhile, I have my eye on some fun shoes for summer- some are unique designs  that are really interesting. Check out the heels on some these shoes. Great golden heels, a slip on shoe to die for...... love it. A interesting TWISTED heel, another shoe I love. A classic take on the Chanel design. Lets try a ANIMAL print , shall we? Animal prints are really versatile with many outfits. A perfect yellow sling back heel , dress them up or down. images via ASOS

Fashion - SPRING DELIGHT

HAVE THAT SPRING FEELING Its seems spring arrived early this year, so time to retire the winter coat and boots. Spring is always a special season , as we can get out our more lighter pieces of clothing and brighter colors.   Here is my style idea for a casual look with that pop of colour. One color that makes a return in fashion is yellow or a deeper yellow, and i love it because it reminds me of daffodils in the spring. A great pair of bootcut jeans, a simple top, a simple shade of grey blazer fun ballerinas flats and that POP of colour...... YES  it is SPRINGTIME!
