Is "Dressing For Your Body Type" No Longer A Thing?


This think piece will be quite controversial but I'm open to hearing your thoughts on the matter, however different they may be.

A Woman's View on the 50's classic: The Country Girl

Hello ladies and gents

Today’s post is going to be a little different from usual. There’s no discussing hem lengths and lipstick shades involved. This is a subject that is very dear to me and hopefully you can take something from it.




I just finished watching George Seaton’s 1954 drama “The Country Girl” starring Grace Kelly and Bing Crosby. Grace Kelly received an Academy Award for her stellar performance in the film.

The film explores the efforts of Frank Elgin, a struggling washed-up actor to rise to the circumstances when he finally lands a lead role in a musical play, directed by Bernie Dodd who strongly believes in him from the very beginning. The film also explores his relationship with his wife Georgie who is the behind-the-scenes supporter and the one who carries the burden of a secret that looms over their marriage and is the cause for her husband’s demise.

Power Dressing: What You Need To Know

Hello readers,
Since our routine has finally settled in and we're already engrossed in school, college and/or work, I found this as a perfect opportunity to introduce you to this thing called power dressing

Fall and Winter are the time to get all business-like and put on your best front to impress and make things happen for you, whether that has to do with your scholar, academic or professional career. 

So..
have you ever felt inspired by these capable and apt women, like Coco Chanel or Margaret Thatcher who had the guts to break the rules and make history? What makes these women iconic, is not only their work but also their impact as personalities, the effect they had on people and that, a lot of times, has to do with image as well. Imposing yourself on others is a matter of attitude -and skill of course-and style can be a significant part of that I'm-going-to-take-over-the-world attitude.
