*S*-*P*-*I*-*N*-*G* Has Indeed Sprung

Haven't blogged in a WHILE and how appropriate is it that I blog again on spring. Glad winter is gone (used to be my favourite season...not anymore.. lets not go into the reasons why).

OK, out with the old and in with the new. Spring means a lot of things to a lot of people but to me it means CHANGE: change of wadrobe, change of habits (no more waking up smack deep in the middle of the night to eat *side-eyes self* LOL)...lose the winter weight and get ready to show some skin *YAY*....afterall if you've got it, flaunt it, I say. Well, you cant really show some skin and be confident about it unless u are in good shape...plus there are all kinds of exciting spring activities that require one to be in their best form.

Fabulous I Am.! is all about being fabulous, yes I said it and this season is all about my favourite things, sunshades (big ones, funky ones,colourful ones and the classy ones that never go out of style), watches (all shapes, colors and sizes), all things short (dresses, skirts, shorts...u name it), killer heels, sandals and brightly coloured nails, hats , bikinis , funky handbags and lotsa lipgloss and accessories.






MY Spring Checklist:

#Dresses: Be seen in dresses of all styles, lengths, colours and makes. The best places to buy flirty dresses(for me) are YDE, Identity and believe it or not, Mr Price, depending of course on the occassion and reason for wearing the dress. *The aim is to look good without injuring your bank balance :-).





  

Maxi Dresses...(yeah remember the ones moms used to wear) they are back in vogue. (Wear them with flat sandals...I actually cant imagine a maxi dress in anything other than flat shoes)

 


#Shorts: Two words: 'BE DARING'....but not at the price of your comfort.


#Classy does it all the time: My ultimate timeless look is denim, white vest and stiletoe pumps. ( Can be worn absolutely anywhere)



Remember the 5 commandments of style:
#1. Know thy body....*Dont wear short things if all u will be showing are stretch marks and orange peel.
#2. Comfort is an all time priority...*Ill fitting clothes,shoes etc; no matter how expensive,are a HUGE no no!
#3. If its not flattering, u shudnt be bothering.... *We are different, wear what looks best on you.
#4. Thou shant be a fashion slave...... *style is what remains once the fashion has faded.
#5. True to thy self remain.....*Do not wear anything that does not reflect who you are.! *NB*

One of my favourite qoutes:
"To be a woman is to know yourself, know what you represent and what works for you. To be "in fashion" could be a disaster in 90% of women. You are not a page out of Vogue" - Author Unknown
