CREATE OUR OWN STYLE


 







 

"Elegance is not standing out, but being remembered." —Giorgio Armani



"Fashion is part of the daily air and it changes all the time, with all the events. You can even see the approaching of a revolution in clothes. You can see and feel everything in clothes." —Diana Vreeland


"Don't be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way to live." 
Gianni Versace


"What you wear is how you present yourself to the world, especially today, when human contacts are so quick. Fashion is instant language." —Miuccia Prada


"Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it." 
Diane von Furstenberg


"Fashion is very important. It is life-enhancing and, like everything that gives pleasure, it is worth doing well.” —Vivienne Westwood


"Fashion is what you're offered four times a year by designers. And style is what you choose." —Lauren Hutton


"Fashion you can buy, but style you possess. The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There's no how-to road map to style. It's about self expression and, above all, attitude." —Iris Apfel


"Elegance is elimination." —Cristóbal Balenciaga


"Style is the only thing you can’t buy. It’s not in a shopping bag, a label, or a price tag. It’s something reflected from our soul to the outside world—an emotion.”—Alber Elbaz


"Fashion is about dressing according to what’s fashionable. Style is more about being yourself." —Oscar de la Renta




 

CREMORA TART


 

This is my recipe for the Cremora Tart, as I live in the UK I cannot get Cremora so I used double cream. Luckily I can get guava at the Tesco super market.

Ingredients

250ml double cream  (250ml boiling water - 500g Cremora. Beat till creamy and thick)
1 tin condense milk
250ml lemon juice
2 packets tennis biscuits (I used malted milk biscuits - Tesco)
1 tin quavas

Beat the double cream till it starts getting firm, add lemon juice and condense milk alternatively then mix till thick and creamy.

Separate the guava and the juice, chop the guavas keep aside, dip the biscuits into the guava syrup and line the serving dish.

Add a layer of the cream over the biscuits then chopped guavas then layer of cream then layer of biscuits dipped into the guava syrup till. Repeat, allowing the cream to be the last layer at then sprinkle with crushed biscuits.

Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Enjoy

Words of Wisdom


Send out love and harmony, put your mind and body in a peaceful place, and then allow the Universe to work in the perfect way that it knows how.


Everything in the Universe flows. You can't get a hold of water by clutching it. Let your hand relax, though, and then you can experience it.


Surrender to what is.
Let go of what was.
Have faith in what will be.


Your entire life consists of the present moment.


Joy doesn't come when you try to hold it all together,
Joy comes when you let God hold you.


From dark clouds we get precious water....
From dark mines we get precious jewels....
And from our darkest trials come our best blessings from God.

Here's a dozen of my favorite things never to apologize for:


1) Never apologize for acting on your instincts.
2) Never apologize for being passionate.
3) Never apologize for being smart.
4) Never apologize for demanding respect.
5) Never apologize for saying no.
6) Never apologize for not embracing someone else's agenda.
7) Never apologize for disagreeing.
8) Never apologize for your faith.
9) Never apologize for your own sense of creativity.
10) Never apologize for ordering dessert.
11) Never apologize for being funny.
12) Never apologize for living your truth.


Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
