Stick Thin ... Is That Normal ?

As I pour through all the news on the net and headlines on the mail and magazines , I often see talk about stick thin models on the Catwalk . Now it seems the worrying trend continues to pour over to chain street stores , catalogs and everywhere ! Our Kate was looking painfully thin at the James Bond premier as well :(

Why is it so in demand to have these stick thin models ? It is not the average woman who is stick thin and nor is it the kind of woman a man lusts after . Is it not true that men like Booty , Hips and Boobs ?
Young girls aspire to be like these models and are often  frustrated when they are not actually achieving that look , from normal eating . Aside from that I have always wanted to know why do they always recruit models , who happen to be so tall ? That is not the average height of a women . This model thing is not  the right word to use to describe them because they are NO Model of our standard woman . I would love to call them some bizarre word , like "Aliens " . These Aliens , will show you how to wear the latest fashion ! Seems appropriate to me ;)

The women of our generation are completely losing themselves over alot of things . They think stick thin girls are fashionable and all female editors of fashion magazines endorse this weird promotion . I want to see women of all sizes on the Catwalk , in magazines on billboards and that means short girls like myself also having a chance in the fashion industry .
The women are also becoming so busy , trying to prove that women can do everything what  a man can do , that they are losing their uniqueness . Women were not created to do everything a man can do . Women were created to do everything a man can't do !

Why is it that women are so obsessed with Boobs ? They all want to increase their bust . Be okay and satisfied with what you have , I can understand if they are saggy or make you feel embarrassed  , a little bit of work is understandable , especially mothers who have breast- fed their babies .  But the fact remains , big boobs or small boobs men always prefer blow jobs anyway , and are hardly interested in the size of your tits if its your personality and cheeky charm they have fallen in love with ! Women need to be more woman and show men we are different then them , it is not a contest to show you can compete with them because you can't ! Women would be truly equal to men the day they run in the Olympics , alongside a man and beat him to a Gold medal . I guess that day will be the day Women will not have to fight to prove they can do all a Man Can !

Keep Smiling and have an awesome day ! Love & Peace xx

Floral Print Trousers ..It's Great Style For Autumn !

Mid week , and you don't know what clothes to throw on ... A flowered trouser / legging is never a bad choice . With the weather getting colder and legs to keep warm I tend to reach for something to cover my pins . A nice tank top and a blazer / jacket to keep the outfit smart and trendy . A tasseled satchel is a big thing this autumn and it can hold a lot of essentials , so it's a plus . A silvery scarf and some chunky boots all completes this look .
This is definitely one of my favourite looks and I regularly sport this style in the colder months !
The plus is you could be in your 20's 30's or 40's and still look super cool with it on !

A beautiful quote for today , which is deep and set me thinking ...

When the soul lies down in that grass and the world is too full to talk about ! "  Rumi

Keep smiling ... Love & Peace

Grateful ?? On A Sunday , Can We Feel Ungrateful ??

Happy Sunday !!

Today after a very long time an old friend came to visit me ,and how nice it is to catch up with faces we have not seen in ages . It is even better when they remember what you like and what you don't ! So if anyone knows me well would know that I find money very important and it is the key factor in surviving . Without money , you are a nobody and being a single mother with three kids , I almost always have no money and I always fear I will have nothing . not a nice way to live , but life is seldom very nice !
So my dear friend visits and she brings me a bunch of flowers , yes I love flowers and a scratch card .  She does know that if it's a birthday or celebration and anyone asks me "what  would you like ? " it's always a scratch card or a lotto ticket . I always live in the hope maybe one day it will happen and I won't have to live in fear of being poor without anything !
So I am super excited when I see it , and I say " Nice , how thoughtful I know this five pound scratch card , I have seen it in the shops !! " She says" No dear it's a ten pound scratch card ! " I look again closely and it is indeed a ten pound scratch card , which looks exactly like the five pound one almost no difference ! What a cheat and a rip off I think ! I am certainly not feeling happy or grateful , you could have two five pound ones for that price and a double chance of winning ! The world is certainly getting bad , getting ripped off with a scratch card ! I would never buy it ! Never !!
Maybe she looked at me like I was not grateful , but I looked at her like she was stupid to spend money on something which is exactly like something half the price !
So I halfheartedly thought maybe I would have a prize on it and it would cheer me up ! No it had nothing on it and I truly felt she wasted her money !
Just thought I'd share my Sunday with you ,and show you the scratch card , it looks exactly like the five pound one and it's double the price . Don't be ripped off ! I would never spend any money on that !!
It's very hard to feel grateful , in a very tough world . I wish life was different , but it's not . Enjoy your Sunday , and it's okay to feel ungrateful we are human after all ! No God would never think badly of us , if we are willing to confess ingratitude !
I saw a nice movie on telly tonight , which I never got to see when it was first made , and what a wonderful film it was " Angela's Ashes " it had the best script ever and I loved all the lines , eye opening about poverty in the 1930's and a struggling family in Limerick , Ireland !
One of the best lines in the movie , I thought was " You might be poor and your shoes might be broken , but your mind is a Palace " truly beautiful !
The other quite random line which made me smile  was when the boy went to Confession ( which he did regularly ! ) He tells the priest "Bless me father for I have sinned , I have done some dirty things , " and the priest says "What was it , with yourself , with another or with a beast "  And the boy thinks , this priest is not from here he's from the Country " Beast ??? " he is opening my eyes to new things  lol ...
Good Movie , and definitely  a recommendation from me , if you have never seen it ,

first time around . A movie to touch your soul and spirit ! I shall go to bed with it still stirring my thoughts !

Keep smiling , Love & Peace

Life is always meant to be hard , but we can face adversity and WIN !
Keep smiling . Love & Peace xx

Little Black Dress , For Every Occasion !!

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night wherever you are in your day hope you are smiling and well !
Today We are back to making a fashion statement . We often do it with a little black dress , we all have one or in my case a few . No it doesn't all have to be boring and dull and just the shade of black . We can throw a little bit of extra colour in the dress like some white detail or a gold belt and allow the dress to stand out .
I have selected a few black dresses and put them here , to give you some idea of the beautiful choices available .Hope you like my selection .
Do you have a favourite black dress ? Would you wear a black dress for any special occasion , like Christmas , a wedding or a banquet ?
Our beautiful Kate , Duchess of Cambridge wore a Red dress to the most recent banquet for the visiting Chinese Premier . Maybe a black dress would have been better suited for that occasion , lol ... The pomp and ceremony given to the Chinese , and a massive deal struck with them hhmm very questionable !  A parade down the Mall a welcome like no other and the same day 1700 jobs lost , that means British people unemployed , because more steel works are shut down , all due to the Chinese  dumping steel at low costs . Grand scale unemployment here as a result , but of course the Royal Family don't care , nor does the government . A Banquet for people ruining the livelihood of the country , but our future King , Prince Charles did not attend and I am so pleased ,at least someone cares !!! I remember reading a long time ago , the Prince called the Chinese , Stiff Wax works .. seems very true ! The Dali Lama over the Chinese any day . Of course anything made in China is not built to last and that is just about everything nowadays , oh yes not babies , lol they are made in va-china ;)
Black Dresses they just suit every occasion and it always speaks volumes . Have a wonderful day and keep smiling xx

Chocolate Dessert Recommendation .... Lush :)

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night wherever you are in your day hope you're smiling !
Today I had the most delicious Belgian chocolate pudding EVER ... So I just had to put it up here on my blog as a product recommendation . It is so delicious and it looks and tastes better than the picture on the box , even suggests .

I have eaten alot of luxury desserts in my life , but I have never tasted one so delicious and so well priced . No it is not from any of the big brand shops but from the humble Iceland range of luxury products .

I could eat one everyday for the rest of my life , it is that delicious , and my mouth waters just writing about it .
It is oozy in the center with creamy rich Belgian ( best in the world ) chocolate !
It is a must try for all chocolate dessert lovers . I promise you , you will want to eat it everyday !

Go down  to your local ICELAND and get a box for yourself . You could also gift it to your girlfriend , she will love you more for it and it costs less than a bunch of flowers . I can't rave about it more than I have ... It is a rich , fabulously good chocolate dessert !
It is packed with four and well under a fiver !
Don't forget to give it a try . Indulge yourself , you are worth it !

Awesome Winter Boots !!

Boots knee high and classic chunky ankle styles are the currant trend for autumn and winter . Black and brown are the classic colours which combine well with all outfits . Stay clear of white shoes and boots , although it might be fashionable in Essex , it's not any where else ;)
Try to be versatile and put those heels on . I see so many people only wearing sneakers or flats which does nothing to lengthen the leg or make the legs look sexy . No we don't dress to please anyone , but dressing to appear smart , sexy and rich gives us extra self confidence and makes us more appealing and fun to get to know .
Dressing well , does not end with a nice dress , NO it goes down all the way to your shoes . Being smartly dressed is the key to looking like a well bred individual . No matter how much money you have if you wear sweat pants , jogging tops , t/shirts with no sleeves you will look like a bum and a destitute .
You can have class and all the attributes of being from high society , even if you are not , by doing all the appropriate things . Dressing well , Being dignified , speaking well articulate , not drinking excessively , not being loud and obnoxious , these are some of the attributes of a classy lady , in case you are wondering where to begin . Money a swanky job does not immediately say a person of standard and class . Yesterday I read a news item of a University lecturer who got so drunk and unruly on a plane , and got even worse , turned abusive when she was asked to behave and stop drinking . The police were called and she was escorted off the plane , but not before she even slapped the police officer ! She quickly resigned from her very prestigious post of University Lecturer .  So you see , be the best you can be , being classy does not need money or an influential job ! Good shoes says alot about you :)
