Your Style Magazine #104 - July 2021

My palette of Summer Roses proves that rarely is a color out of bounds whatever your color direction. 

I've always considered ROSE PINK to be a cool color and yet, the more I break color into palettes the more I realize that nature has it's own agenda!

Whatever your color direction you can enjoy ROSE PINK. 

My daughter mentioned that when she has to return to the office she'd forgotten how to dress!

I too realized that, after seeing hardly anyone for the past year, I had stopped bothering about how I looked. So last month I introduced the Classic/Capsule wardrobe plan which is perfect, not only for the office, but for us retired women too.

Even if you're reasonably familiar with wearing cosmetics, choosing makeup colors can be a minefield!

You have to cope with different brands, price points and a multitude of products that promise the world before you even begin to think about color!

Let me explain...

Heavy or large bust? Do you want to camouflage or flaunt it?

Although support and comfort are the major problems, it can also be difficult to dress attractively without appearing to be overtly sexy.

Whether you're barbecuing in Brighton or baking in the Tropics, the dramatic tones of the Winter palette are perfect for your warm weather wardrobe. A bit of sunshine shows us all off to advantage and these bright contrasts provide lots of mix and and match opportunities for your Summer essentials.

I've shown you the oh-so-useful Mia Tui travel bags but Mia Tui produce a 'bag for every reason'.

In addition they now offer a wide range of scarves, jewelry, fragrances and home and garden ware. All delivered worldwide.

I love wide leg pants at any time of the year but they are a MUST for me in the Summer! 

Whether you're at home, at work or on vacation, a pair of loose pants do a great cover-up job - and they're bang on trend. They're extremely flattering and oh so comfortable!

Perhaps you want to cover up a little but still enjoy the sunshine, then this is the way to cool elegance. More than that, they can cover up a multitude of sins!

Does your skin deserve a treat?

Forget unhealthy chemicals and preservatives, what could be better than a delicious recipe with BANANAS, CUCUMBER or STRAWBERRIES.

Try your own DIY face and body scrubs with 100% edible and organic ingredients straight from your fridge!

I'm not pretending that I'm a domestic goddess and make all my bread but this is a special little recipe that, just once in a while, really impresses visitors.

Soda bread is a BIG cheat, it takes just 10 minutes to prepare and works like a dream. Fabulous to serve with soup, cheese or a picnic centrepiece.
