Fashionable Pencil Skirts !

Happy Friday !

The weekend is always awaited , tomorrow is a big day in horse-racing , it's the day of the Arc ! That would be one of the best & most expensive races on the Flat calendar. It takes place across the Channel in France , a place called Chantilly, which is very beautiful .The favourite to win is ENABLE a filly who will be ridden by Frankie Dettori , the best jockey in the world and I will be very happy to put my money on it ! Have a bet on it , it would be worth it . You could also put a double , which I will be doing on the 4.35 also at Chantilly on Marsha ridden by a very very good jockey Luke Morris , unbelievably talented !

Today's blog is about a favourite which never goes out of fashion ..the pencil skirt , I think it's glamorous and I love wearing them .
The Pencil skirt is a classic feminine piece , that is elegant and fashionable . It is the most understated apparel in women's fashion but it has been around since the 1950's and suits all body types .
The perfect piece of clothing and one that every woman should own , for a touch of sophistication and glamour ! Pencil skirts can be worn for every occasion , from casual to formal to even the red carpet .
The timeless pencil skirt does not have to mean plain , there are so many modern twists to the skirt . They are now being designed as structured , slitted and even patterned . They can be worn sometimes above the knee , but the most suitable and sexy is below the knee . There are so many celebrities who are big fans of this fashion garment . Number one being Kim Kardashian . Others include Miranda Kerr , Kerry Washington and our own fashion Icon and Designer Victoria Beckham who absolutely loves pencil skirts .

If you are wearing your pencil skirt for a formal occasion ,like the office , business meetings you would want a more conservative approach  . Pick out a high waisted styles  , in colours such as browns , black , blues and grey.

For casual wear a lunch with friends , cocktails , afternoon movies, shopping days  think bright colours and patterns . Plaid and denim at the moment are very fashionable , so play on that trend .

For nights out think leopard print , lace , faux leather and sequins . Always keep it below the knee so you still remain classy . Pair it with a spaghetti strap top , bustier , crop tops or the mesh blouses .


If you love the four designs I have chosen out , I have listed the online shops where they are available . Hopeyou enjoyed reading this and love pencil skirts as much as I do !

Six Amazing Beauty Buys !



Happy Thursday !

Before I go on , the Playboy legend that is Hugh Hefner passed away yesterday sadly . He was one of a kind , a man who started his empire with a dream of going to a place that seemed well before that generation ever would . Naked women in magazines , Yes he empowered women to show their body and make big bucks out of it ! I'm all for women being powerful ... yes it's definitely better showing off your boobs , in a topless picture , than taking a selfie breastfeeding your little baby and posting it on social media , why involve the baby and think it's empowering ? Show your boobs with you alone and be powerful ! #RIPHef  loved and missed , forever remembered an icon !

Today's blog ,six great beauty buys , worth having .For an amazingly long 'youthful' look without going under the surgeon's knife, The Foundation of Youth is what every woman over 45 needs! You would need to save up your money for it but it is under 100 dollars so it won't break your bank balance! Dr. Brandt Needles No More, is just 89 dollars available from Sephora.com.
It gives a temporary tightening effect. This cream makes fine lines instantly less noticeable, while it works behind the scenes towards a more permanent smoothing.

Top of the list is Revlon's Photo Ready Eye Art. They are priced at 10 dollars each and available from ultra.com.
Just layer on these duo shadow sticks on the top of your eyelids or use it for a super flick across your lash line. They come in a wide range of colours and last a good number of hours for a perfect EYE DAY!

My third choice would be a Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream from Bareminerals.com. It is available from February and costs 29 dollars. It has a perfect blend of a BB and a CC cream all in a jar of a perfect lightweight foundation with an SPF 30 combined!

Fourth is a dark-spot corrector. It's available from Amazon.com for 15 dollars and called Aveens Positively Radiant Targeted Tone Corrector.
It contains brightening soy and Vitamin A which speeds up cell turn over, starts to fade stubborn spots within a few weeks of consistent use!

Fifth is the best shampoo & conditioner for colour treated hair. From Hollywood hair guru, Oribe, it preserves high maintenance hues. Its edelweiss extracts offers a fade-proofing, while the watermelon extract battles oxidation, The packaging is so pretty and elegant. It's the best thing your showers will see and you will be the envy of anyone entering your bathroom! Priced at 39 dollars and 42 dollars. They are not cheap, but used once a week they can last a good couple of weeks!

At sixth is the most luxurious shampoo and conditioner for Blonde Hair , it's from John Frieda not cheap but more affordable than the shampoo above at number 5 , but absolutely worth it if you have dyed your hair and want to maintain the colour without it going brassy . The conditioner is out of this world and keeps your hair soft and nourished . I highly rec-command this product . It is available at most drugstores and supermarkets .
Go Blonder Lightening Shampoo

Enjoy these products which ever one you choose to buy for yourself or maybe you can afford them all ! Have a wonderful day and keep smiling!

Four Gorgeous Autumn Sweaters !

Happy Monday !

The weather was beautiful but I would say sweaters are a must have this autumn . Today I have put together 4 of my favourite ones for you . These pastel colours go with all skin tones and all sizes . Remember you have to feel beautiful on the inside to radiate your beauty outside . Hope you love my selection and it inspires you to go out and get yourself some !

If you have been keeping up with all the celeb news you would have heard Kylie is reportedly pregnant ! At 20 , it is far too young ( keeping in mind I had my eldest very young !) it is not something I would suggest young girls do ! Kylie is just stepping out into adulthood and needs these formative years on learning up all the joys of being an adult without the responsibility of parenthood . Being a parent is demanding and a full time job with responsibility . Children need the love & attention and the next 18 years is pretty much putting the kids ahead of yourself . But I would imagine with all her family around her , she has all the support she needs and her child is not going to lack from playmates or money ! So good luck Kylie but I do believe she rushed her choice of father for her child in a five month relationship and 4 months pregnant is not a good start any way you see it !

On another note , Chicken livers is something I enjoy eating and today I read the Michelin star restaurant of Mark Sargent has been downgraded from 5 stars to 2 , because the chicken livers were pink ! Rightly so , I eat my chicken livers cooked all the way through and all meat , especially chicken need to be cooked well with no pinkness ! No I don't eat at Michelin places because I don't believe the food is cooked all the way through ! We are getting more conscience of our intake as we look to be healthy and not get cancer and other sicknesses etc ... under cooked meat is a very dangerous thing ! Eat right and put healthy food into your body and reap the benefits ! Meat is a good thing but eat it responsibly , over-indulgence is also bad . Fruit and veg can be eaten raw or cooked on a lighter note :)




sweaters
1 v neck crop knit jumper / 12 dollars / boohoo.com
2 lantern sleeve sweater / 26 euros / zaful.com
3 cable knit crop sweater / 40 dollars / chicwish.com
4 brick red v neck choker knit / 25 pounds / withchic.com

To end with an inspirational quote I love " Push yourself , because no one else is going to do it for you " Have an awesome day and keep smiling .

Smart Weekend Outfit & Some Thoughts !

Happy

2 ruched sleeve blazer / 26 euros / shein.com
3 linen-blend pants / 18 dollars / simplybe.com
4 platform heels / 21 euros / boohoo.com
5 chain metal handbag / 20 dollars / zaful.com
6 crystal and silver dangle earrings / 30 dollars / saksoff5th.com

Happy Saturday !

Today's blog and outfit selection is something you would choose if you had a nice date for the weekend . Going to a sophisticated eatery , maybe a day at the races ,well get dressed up hereś what I would recommend you wear ! Have fun and enjoy, all this week after all we are promised good weather , and temperatures are shooting up !! It's not going to be tropical , but if we don't need to turn our heating up itś bloody GOOD !

Today was supposed to be the end of the world , well all the doomsday predictions are proving how hopelessly wrong they are .. Are we all worried ?? NO but some people do worry , especially as the world is now facing threats from Rocket Man but Thank God we have Donald Trump who is very capable of looking after us all , and I can sleep well at night knowing nothing will ever happen to us !

On another note , hearing the daily news and feeling like a situation is getting completely out of control in the UK "Acid attacks " this is completely unacceptable .How can these things happen in a civilised first world country like the UK ? Could it be the huge influx of people from the East that has caused this to begin here? After all no cultured person , with a decent  background would think this is any kind of weapon to use against another fellow human being ! We need this to stop immediately , unless we start thinking and taking appropriate action , we are not going to get this under control . Much as I am against the death penalty , I think in this case we need to bring it back , anyone caught who has used acid in an attack, should be charged and within a month Hung !!!!  Believe me this will stop so quick after 5 or 6 people are put to death in the gallows . We need to get more tough and act out quickly or else the world is going to get completely out of control . I am beginning to lose all hope for humanity , it is very depressing to know we have alot of evil people out there wishing to do harm on somebody else !

Much as I always promote Peace & Love which I will continue to do , we need to take a tougher stance on rogue people , just locking up people is not the answer , we need to deter others from using this vile , disfiguring type of violence ! Please spend every moment thinking of the good you can do for others and not try to intentionally hurt somebody !

Have an awesome day and keep smiling . Make the World a better place and love each other .

Peace & Love

Red Lipstick For Autumn !!

Happy Tuesday !

We all love our  lippy and how often do we find our lips drying out . Yes lipsticks gives our lips colour and brightens our face but it also protects our lips , gives it moisture and makes us look gorgeous as well .
Red lipstick is definitely a statement wear . If you are looking to turn heads , look sexy and youthful , then red lipstick is the choice for you . I have selected six different shades of red from different brands for you . They go with most skin tones and would suit almost everyone . If you have never tried red lipstick , you should . I have listed the prices and the brands along with where , they are available online or the high street . Happy shopping . I love red lipstick , it cheers me up , makes me want to smile more and I get lots of compliments , when I am sporting red lips .Try it  , it also gives the appearance of having fuller lips , which is so fashionable right now . No need for silicon :)

1. Nyx Cosmetics Simply Red Lip Cream / 11 Pounds / Nelly.com
2. Lord & Berry Vogue Matte Lipstick - Red / 25 Dollars / Beautybar.com
3. Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick / 15 Pounds / Veryexclusive.co.uk
4. Honeybee Gardens Truly Natural Queen Bee Red Lipstick / 13 Dollars / Lulus.com
5. Lips in Temptation / 12 Dollars / Topshop.com
6. Maybeline Lipstick / 6.99 Pounds / ASOS.com

Enjoy wearing the red lipstick , fall weather is cold , dull and gloomy , sport bright lips to cheer yourself up but remember itś always good to talk about feelings , although how much good will that do you ? The Duchess of Cambridge has just released a video telling parents to encourage their children to talk about their feelings . It is a good thing , but what the UK now needs is more hospitals dedicated to people with mental issues , mental welfare needs to be addressed but there are not enough shrinks , nurses around to give the people enough support they need at their most vulnerable . People say they have an issue and can't get a quick appointment to see someone . Someone in such a position is vulnerable to rash decisions . Kate , William and Harry need to invest their royal millions into Mental Health Hospitals and name it after Princess Diana which would  help people to adjust to everyday living which is a pain . We all have issues , some more than others and living in this hard world makes it tougher to survive . Talking is not enough , more professionals need to be available to society ! Remember suicide is not the answer talk about it , and seek help if you are feeling vulnerable . You are loved and will be missed forever . .. don't leave your loved ones behind , live your life and go naturally believe me it is an achievement but worth it in the end .


Have an awesome day and keep smiling !

Love & Peace !

Sunday Advice & Gorgeous Sneakers !

Happy Sunday !

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night wherever you are in your day I hope you are smiling ! Sunday is a day for rest and relaxation , I hope you took every advantage to spend time with your family . I found time to catch up with all the latest gossip and unless you have been living on Mars , you all must have read about Wayne Rooney's antics ! So he was arrested drink driving , very foolish to get into a car after drinking but it was not even his car it belonged to a girl he met while nightclubbing ! He drank , and his judgement was impaired no excuse he is married and his wife is preggers with their 4 th child! Seriously he should not be acting like a young man in his 20's with no responsibility . But men sometimes do things they shouldn't be doing! Saying that I personally think Coleen should not be saying things about this girl , a slapper ?? Slamming the party girl ?? Her husband had been acting foolishly , and she should be ashamed of him and keep her mouth shut about this single woman . Why do women blame other women ? Everybody has been harsh and expects Coleen to dump Wayne for cheating , but I can understand if Coleen forgives him again , it is not because she is weak , a pushover or desperate ! No she has a family with him children who need their parents to try and make it as a family and she is trying hard for her children as a good mother would , she does have a 4th on the way. Wayne will always be the cheater he is , so it will be no surprise if he does this again . And no , she is not setting a bad example for her sons, by staying because as they grow up they will see their mother was loyal to their cheating father and when they have relationships they will treat their partner better . If the parents split , the children will think it's okay not to try, and getting out of something is a quick and easy solution and will have a series of failed relationships behind them . That's my bit of Sunday advice , try to forgive , don't blabber about somebody else no matter what the reason and try hard to make things work !

For today I have a selection of the very best sneakers. They are trendy and very fashionable. Enjoy listed below are the shops where they can be bought or ordered!

1. Converse Seasonal / 38 pounds / Very.co.uk
2. Puma trainers / 78 pounds / Yoox.com
3. White hi-top sneakers / 10 dollars / Zulily.com
4. Keds Wool sneakers / 35 dollars / lordandtaylor.com
5. Converse Andy Warhol Trainers / 35 pounds / Coggles.com
6. Vans Winston Sneaker / 45 dollars / Jcpenney.com

To end a beautiful quote that I love from Lyndon B. Johnson, ''Peace is a journey of a thousand miles and it must be taken one step at a time.''

Have an awesome day and keep smiling !

Quality Tips For Gorgeous Hair !

Happy Thursday !

Today the UK had some storm , the weather was fierce , the winds the rain and I got caught in some ! Think I'm coming down with a cold now !!! Used to love the rain , but it was the icy water falling and soaking my hair and clothes to the bone that was not particularly nice . The worst is having soaked hair and you still got a few chores to run . Anyways today my blog is about hair, having great hair is a dedication , we have got to work at it , to achieve it ! Here are a few tips !!

Hair is called our crowning glory and if there is one thing women love, its spending tons of money on hair products , shampoos , conditioners and anything basically which promises us lushes locks .
It does not cost the earth however if we decide to eat the right things which nourish our hair from the inside and give us the healthy hair we desire . Have you reached a certain age or just have the feeling that stress , lifestyle  is causing the  thinning of your locks ? Well I'm going to list all the right food you should be eating , to give you the hair you desire .
Hair requires a regular supply of protein , glucose , vitamins and minerals for health and growth . It is usually the first place to suffer if there is a deficiency !

Did you know eating Walnuts delays greying hair ? Walnuts are rich in body-boosting biotin , nourishing Vitamin E and naturally moisturizing Omega Oils . They also contain small traces of copper . This mineral plays a role in the production of melanin , the pigment that gives hair colour . A lack of copper is the cause of hair greying prematurely , so topping up your levels with a handful of walnuts will delay many trips to the colourists .
Lack of Iron is the most common cause of thinning hair . If levels are low , hair becomes starved , the growth phase stops and shedding occurs . Lean red meat is the best source of iron but lentils are very good as well .Image result for pictures of gorgeous hair

Eggs for bounce and elasticity is super . Eggs contain hair boosting nutrients , including protein and Vitamins D and B . Biotin supports keratin production  to increase hairs elasticity and strength . So if your locks are prone to breakage tuck into an omelette !!
Oysters clear Dandruff . If you suffer a dry scalp, then the lack of zink is to blame . Zink helps maintain the function of the oil screating glands that surround hair follicles , so low levels can lead to dryness .Oysters , crab and lobster are the richest sources but pumpkin seeds are also excellent .
Porridge for Youth . Hair becomes more brittle and dull as we get older , and one of the reasons for this is falling silica levels . This mineral is important for helping to maintain hormonal balance . Oats are a wonderful source of silica . So why not eat a bowl of porridge every day .
Peppers for split ends . Vitamin C protects hair from radical damage . It's important for sebum and collagen production . Dry hair and split ends are signs you are not getting enough Vitamin C . Red peppers are a rich source of Vitamin C and so is oranges , strawberries , tomatoes and broccoli .
I hope this helps you in eating the right type of food ,to nourish your hair and keep it looking good !
Have an awesome day and keep smiling !

Love & Peace

Delicious Puri's... Easy & Cheap To Make !!!

Happy Wednesday !

Hurrican Irma has been battering the Carribean Islands and all the tv coverage of it is heartbreaking and beautiful to watch . Nature playing havoc ! I believe Sir Richard Branson's house on Necker Island is completely ruined . Well he can easily afford to rebuild so he does not have my sympathies . I am feeling the pain of all the island dwellers who are not too well off and somehow have to struggle by. The Florida coast is going to feel some brunt of it and the point is, how do all these people continue living in that area struck by hurricans year after year ! God bless all in the path of Irma , stay strong and safe !

On another note , Prince George starts nursery today , hope he has an amazing day , and Mum can drop him off , inspite of morning sickness! I know a lot of women have no choice and have to get the kids to school , even when pregnant and sick ! But Prince George has two stay at home parents so it comes in handy, lol !!!

Today's blog is about something I love to eat ... Puri's !!!
Puri's  are delicious !!! If you don't know what a puri is , allow me to tell you, it's a delicious Indian bread to be eaten with a curry , or accompanied with an Indian Dal or a potato dish . It's normally eaten in the mornings in India , but I have learned to cook it and the kids and myself have it for dinner. It's something we love, and it fills us up so NO snacking two hours later . I enjoy preparing it , and the kids love eating it . The youngest adores it with scrambled eggs !!
It's fairly easy to make , and so cheap , but mouth watering and yummy . You could easily serve it up as a starter with a nice chicken salad  , it's how I love it !

This is the recipe , with not too many ingredients :)

Whole wheat flour 500 gms
Salt ( to taste )
Oil

Sieve the wheat flour with salt . Add water and about two teaspoons of oil and mix it into the flour to make a dough . Use your hands to work the dough .
Don't make the dough too soft  like for a chappati but it should be a little stiff and tight .
Divide the dough into small balls , apply oil to the dough balls , the idea is when you are frying the oil stays clean and no burnt  particles of flour through the oil .
Roll the dough evenly into a small circle , it should not be too thick .
Place the puris on a plate and cover with cling film so they don't dry out before it's ready to fry .
Heat the oil in a wok . The wok should  have about 3 cups of oil . When the oil is hot throw a little piece of dough to test it . The oil should sizzle and the dough ball should quickly raise to the top .
Now throw in your puris , one at a time . It should puff out soon , turn it over and fry till it's a golden brown . Take it out , don't forget to drain it on some kitchen paper , and it's ready to eat :)

Happy cooking and eating !! Have an awesome day and keep smiling :)

Turmeric A Very Healthy Spice !

Happy Sunday !
Hope you spent your day peacefully , enjoying the pleasures of a lazy weekend . I got in a little bit of exercise , did some meditation and enjoyed an hour of music while I cooked dinner music . It was beautiful . If you are loving the new Taylor Swift song well high five I love it too "look what you made me do " :) lol ... Schools are opening and the kids are all ready and excited to be in their new year . I shall miss them around the house all day . I love to hear them laughing and having fun with each other .  Singing and messing around and making bottles of slime and using up my washing liqued !
Today my blog is about a very healthy spice which is very good for you , but not  a lot of people make use of it . Read up and try it . We all need to be healthy every now and again !

Turmeric , is an Indian spice which is long associated with beneficial health properties . Very few people actually use this spice and if you don't do Indian cooking you would not know in what to use it !!

Turmeric is known for it's bright yellow colour and is often used to colour an Indian Palou ( a delicious rice dish ) Well aside from colouring the rice , it is also used in most other Indian dishes , so Indian people get all the health benefits of turmeric , from their food .
Image result for turmeric picture gallery
The Benefits of turmeric are plentiful . It detoxes the body . Protects the liver tissue . Boosts immunity .  Cleanses and purify 's the blood . Eases symptoms of coughs and colds . Improves circulation . Improves overall appearance of the skin . Prevents internal blood clotting . Reduces bad cholesterol . Reduces inflammation , and last stimulates secretion of bile .

So if you have never cooked Indian food and you still want to be able to use turmeric for all it's health benefits and don't know how , it's simple . You could always add half a teaspoon to a warm glass of milk , like I sometimes do or you could make a delicious tea every day and enjoy your added goodness of turmeric in it !

I shall give you a delicious way to combine it in the tea and feel all the wonderful effects from it when you get healthier and as a result add extra years to your life which everyone so wants ;)

Turmeric and Ginger Tea , it's also a great liver detox !

Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 ginger teabag
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp honey
Boiling water
Some milk

Fill the mug almost full with boiling water . Add the ginger teabag and half a tsp of turmeric  let it soak for about 7 minutes . Remove the teabag and add the cinnamon and the honey . Fill  the mug up now with milk and stir . Enjoy your delicious mug of tea and the added health benefits it offers !
Happy Sunday , keep smiling :)

Smooth Skin ?? Salons To Visit !

It's all fine if you choose to keep certain areas neatly trimmed , or you would rather go for the smooth skin style ,it's all a matter of choice .

Hair removal is part of our natural everyday beauty routine . At least 90 % of us remove all our body hair and we start doing it in our teens . So if we our shaving everyday skin gets itchy if we forget to shave the next day and it's so uncomfortable . So as much as possible I don't shave but prefer waxing which keeps you smooth longer .
