A guide to style and good tailoring

Hi welcome to my own unique perspective on what constitutes style and individualism. The vast majority of the photos are taken using a mobile phone camera and I have no make up on.......

I'm in my late 30's and I'm also a widow which probably explains why I look so god damn hot in black, well that and being an ivory skinned pale red head! It also documents my wardrobe, so many people seem fascinated by my clothes and compliment me for how I look wearing them.

It is one woman's campaign against Jeans, Tracksuits and Ugg Boots!

More importantly it's about altering your view on life and trying to do the right thing even though it isn't always the easiest.

This blog is a story in taking pride in yourself and not letting yourself go, or settling for second best because you know what girls? No one really is better than someone if they don't treat you like a Queen................

Abstract it's more than an art or thinking

It is a way of life .......abstraction....simplify the complex.

The phrase "think outside the box" along with other nuggets from Management for Dummies 101 has always amused me, I find myself wanting to say "What box?". You don't need to tell an abstract thinker to think outside the box, that is what we do without trying.

Saturday was spent deep in abstract thought writing pattern recognition templates using regular expressions; so I think I have patterns on the brain today. It's my inner geek, I love crazy prints because it is all about spotting the repeat and seeing the pattern. It is just like programming, or science. 

This dress is based on prints by Matisse who along with Picasso and Marcel Duchamp are considered the "modern art" founders. In his day Matisse was considered to be fauve (a wild beast). We all have our inner wild thing, it is what gives us passion and drive. It's our engine :)
