♥ Being creative in a multitude of ways is definitely one of my favourite things. I draw, write, take photos, make jewellery and even sometimes play with this: Create your own amazing artwork with Flame Painter. You instantly become an incredible artist and it’s so much fun to play with.
♥ Details. Life is all in the details….. that’s what makes it so beautiful. Check out the gorgeous photos (above) from Garance Dore’s most recent post Vionnet / Details.
♥ Check out my friend Gwen’s latest blog post for PRIMPED on ageing and beauty. I can’t emphasise enough how important how you FEEL is to how you age. Unhappy, angry, worried, stressed people will show their age in their face immediately. So let go of all the unnecessary angst, it doesn’t change anything, and choose to be happy. It’s the best thing you can do in order to age gracefully. Secondly, amino acids in proteins are incredibly important – my wonderful beautician has me on a daily dose of NeoCell Super Collagen Type 1 & 3 as well as Jarrow Bioavailable Hyaluronic Acid and these do wonders. Remember that your skin is being fed from your body, so no matter what amount of products you put on your skin if you aren’t giving your body the right nutrients, your skin can’t repair itself.
♥ Mysterious neighbours. I’m not sure if I am going to get in trouble for posting this, but I have a mysterious neighbour. He lives in the house next to my building and I first met him when I asked him about the vegetable garden that he is randomly cultivating in the abandoned orphanage opposite our homes. He says he’s a writer but won’t tell me his name (does that mean he’s famous?!!!) and says that he likes to dig around in the garden when he has writers block. I asked him if I could bring some seedlings and join his gardening, to which he informed me that everything he grows, grows wild. (Is that a friendly way of saying f*&k off?!) Nonetheless, whenever I see him I say hello and we have a chat, last time he gave me and artichoke which I usedd as a flower to decorate my house. Watch this space as I WILL find out who he is!
♥ Girls nights. I’ve decided that girls are much naughtier, funnier and tricksier than boys could ever imagine. Goodness! Some of the R rated conversations I’ve heard at recent girls nights have made me fall of my chair with both laughter and despair! Totally worth having girlfriends for those animated moments of candid truth!
Have a fabulous weekend everyone!
La paix, la joie, l’amour (peace, joy, love) x Vienda
