The Maxi

 

I love maxi dresses. Usually, I have a preference for the sleeveless ones in summer time. The long sleeve ones can feel a bit overwhelming. So I have recently bought a couple of them with long sleeves (on sale) and I will take them to the dressmaker's and have the sleeve shortened to a three-quarter sleeve length. I like that look.

Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe

Awesome Victoria Falls. It's best seen from the Zimbabwean side.

And That's A Wrap

 

Mega-Proud! Incredibly compelling individual. But then, most Jamaicans are. Celebrate well, Usain!

Sarah Walmsley

 

 

 

Yesterday, I just passed through JoBerg on my way to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and discovered some art work.  I like Sarah Walmsley's glass and bronze sculptures. Sarah is a post-graduate student at SoMAD, the School of Music Art and Design at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University. She says she likes capturing poses that are graceful and full of poise yet unself-conscious and unexpectedly observed. Sometimes you pass a coffee shop or a bus stop and you see a lady artlessly arranged with no intention to be elegantly seated and the lines of her body, owing to its arrangement are so sleek and graceful you wish you could be like her. That's what I see in some of Sarah's sculptures. Sarah's work is on sale here. I'll be in Zimbabwe all week.

Navy Blue

So, what do you think of a navy blue room? Do you think it would be too much? Or, do you feel like running to the paint store when you look at these pictures. I like. The last two pictures are of my living room which I will dearly miss (more on that later).

Can you guess what I am looking at in these photos? Do you know that saying: that the drapes should match the rug? Lol! For get that! I love when the curtains don't match the rug or anything else, but instead, coordinate with the rest of the décor.
