Sale shopping bargains

We all like to find a bargain or two to add to our wardrobes when we’re not re-wearing or upcycling our clothes- as the Duchess of Cambridge did last night at the Baftas.
.
Wearing vibrant colour can bring you joy and brighten up your day.
Sometimes it’s good to venture out of your comfort zone and experiment.

Today I’m wearing :
Cotton crop polo-neck from Zara (under £10)
Blue trousers from Zara sale £5.99 (reduced from £29.99)
Heels from TK Maxx in 2019 (around £30)

Think of one word to describe

Think of one word to describe ......
"How you see yourself.
And then,
"How you think others see you.
"How you'd like others to see you."
.
Do your three answers match? 
They rarely do......
.

Ask your friends or your family how they see you?

Ask your friends or your family how they see you? 
The answer will always be more positive than how you believe they perceive you and how you see yourself. 
You will be so surprised 
So
Think of one word to describe ......
"How you see yourself.
And 
then,
"How you think others see you.
"How you'd like others to see you."
And start asking....
.
Did your three answers match? 
I want you to love what you see in the mirror.
The same as how others see you.
That unique, glamorous, confident, sexy, ageless beautiful woman who doesn't compare herself to others.

A French website @aufeminin has written the nicest article about my Instafeed and how, as a 64 year old woman, I’m helping other women to be body confident and happy in their own skin

A French website @aufeminin has written the nicest article about my Instafeed and how, as a 64 year old woman, I'm helping other women to be body confident and happy in their own skin. .
I created my Instagram to inspire and help women of all ages to be body positive and non-judgemental or super-critical of themselves or others. .
And to see what we look like with no filters.. .
No one is perfect. But we can all be the best versions of ourselves wrinkles, warts and all- everything that makes each of us unique.
.
C'est flatteur de recevoir ces critiques. Merci.
And thank you to all my new French followers. .

Age is just a number!

Age is just a number!
.
Here is my 96 year old auntie,
me age 64, 
and @misslucy_lou The Westie x Bichon dog. .
Women of all ages can still be naturally beautiful, with no filters applied to enhance or manipulate.
.
Beauty comes from within and shines out when you're happy in your own skin, together with confidence, positivity and positive body language. .
Being fake isn't beautiful.
Being real is. 
Be the best you can be in your real life.
.
Love yourself and believe you are worth it.
.
Embrace all life has to offer and grab it with both hands and be grateful for everything you have. My 96 year old auntie does and is the funniest and most irreverent person I know.
And she still likes to dress stylishly and glamorously whenever she goes out, always with makeup and definitely lipstick.

Back in day

Back in day.....
Circa 1970s
Wearing Kenzo.
.

It's a shame that our younger selves don't appreciate or realise how good we look at the time and beat ourselves up wanting to be an improved version. Slimmer, curvier, longer legs, bigger boobs etc etc.
.
Love yourself and love what you see in the mirror as you are now.
Accept your imperfections. They are what make you unique. .
Be confident in who you are. 
Confidence is sexy.

Hello Monday! Good morning from @misslucy_lou And me

Hello Monday! 
Good morning from @misslucy_lou
And me..
Have a great week.
.
.
I like to wake up and start each day with 5 minutes of gratitude for everything in my life that I appreciate and love- could be absolutely anything-small or big. .
.
I find the more grateful you are to the Universe,  often the more it gives you back. .
