I wore this outsized, lengthy, pretty shapeless Artist Smock out to dinner on Friday night time. I LOVE this shirt, nevertheless it’s not straightforward to model in a flattering approach. As I used to be getting dressed, I spotted I didn’t have the fitting footwear. We’ve talked about footwear lots over the previous few weeks, so why cease now?
This outfit wanted a visually heavier shoe to stability the shirt, and I needed it to be an informal sneaker. My way of life is so relaxed now that sneakers are acceptable in every single place. I’ve taken to ladies’s toes wherever I’m to take a look at what they’re sporting. Extra instances than not, it’s some form of athletic shoe. In hindsight, I may have worn my retro sneakers, however they acquired moved whereas reorganizing my closet, and since I didn’t see the field, I forgot I had them.
Dazzle Dry
I made a decision it is likely to be a good suggestion to attempt a salon gel manicure proper earlier than the vacations. Common nail polish chips in 1-2 days, so I believed knowledgeable possibility is likely to be a time saver. It was a really dangerous determination. Most individuals get 2-3 weeks from their gel manicures. I solely acquired eight days earlier than it began chipping and searching cheesy. I had it redone thrice, 10 days aside, and every time they used the sanding drill to “easy” my nails which completely destroyed them.
Then I examine Dazzle Dry, which is completely non-toxic, requires no mild for curing, and comes off with common polish remover. A neighborhood salon provided a Dazzle Dry manicure, however they needed $60 for it. This isn’t my first goat rodeo, so I knew it will by no means be value that value on my nails. Then I noticed this mini equipment on Amazon and determined I may threat that quantity to try to do it myself at residence. I watched their “learn how to” video right here, which regarded pretty easy.
There are a number of steps, however they dry in a short time, so your entire course of is quick…a lot faster than driving to a salon, and it feels extra sanitary too. My first week, the polish lasted 4 days which is a file! The second go-around lasted 8 days which is large for me! I’ve been so pleased with these outcomes I made a decision to spring for the full-sized choices for each. They provide tons of colours and many “mini flights,” that are a good way to experiment with colours. I packed the mini equipment to carry to Miami as a result of it’s so tiny and moveable.

A reader as soon as commented they had been grateful I didn’t write about my grandson or meals as a result of they solely learn my weblog for trend. That’s pretty for her, however I’m starting to really feel this weblog is getting a bit one-dimensional. On the threat of alienating that reader, I’ll start sharing a number of favourite recipes going ahead. A part of a life properly lived and wholesome ageing contains meals selections, train, conscious practices, journey, and what we put on.
After having the Brussels Sprouts at Dr. Andrew Weil’s restaurant, I ordered his cookbook which seems to be wonderful. It has so many nice recipes that we’re excited to attempt. The issue is, the above recipe isn’t included. I did discover a recipe that sounds similar to what we ate, right here. They had been amazingly good.
