holidays are over...and I'm back home....

I hope all my dear readers and blogging friends had a wonderful Holiday Season.

I know I had. As you know I spent Christmas and New Year with my lovely family in Toronto to whom I thank for the special moments and all the love shared.

For much we wanted it will never end, life is the way it is and now it's time to go back to work and to our ordinary days.

As much as I expect this start of the year will be very demanding and time consuming for me at work. However I will do my best to stay in touch with you all whenever I can.

All the best to you!

Namasté!

is there an age to stop wearing red lipstick......?

According to an article at Yahoo Shine, Nurture Replenish Skincare carried a research among 2000 45+ women and asked their opinion on what’s "age appropriate" or not.

That article already attracted more than 7700 comments! Many from women that were outraged by some of the article’s statements.

And why is that? Well because among other things the results stated that 59 seems to be the age that these women felt you should dress more "age-appropriately".

At that age, many felt you should ditch: high heels, red lipstick, tight clothes, false nails, fake tan, leather pants, knee high boots, heavy eyeliner, tight tops, and go for a more natural look.

Bella's, from The Citizen Rosebud, feedback it's so good in this article on the topic that I highly recommend you to read it!!!!

three colours and one print....

Hello my dear readers and blogging friends.

I hope everything is great with you.

I miss you all!!!

I haven’t been a good blogger… I know.

However life has those things and we must set some priorities even if they are just our very own priorities.

But I would like to share with you my last shoots for a challenge made by Sylvia from 40+ Style, in which I participated. The challenge was to wear three colours and one print in the same outfit.

Here you can see all the participations and the lovely and stylish looks the other ladies showed us.

Disney and Barney’s New York Present “Electric Holiday”...

OK, today “Searching the Inner Me…” is five years old.

For those who, despite of my latter erratic posts and my irregular visits to your blogs, yet stick with me a big THANK YOU.

about "Black Friday"......

In United States of America the day After Thanksgiving (Friday) is known as "Black Friday". This also is unofficially or officially holiday shopping season's start. Almost all stores come out with Doorbuster Sales with early bird special to attract consumers to their stores. People stand in line hours before stores are opened, to grab the bargain of the year. Almost every store has something that interests every one. For bargain hunters, if there is a biggest festival in a year, that would be, no doubt, the "Black Friday".

Closest reason as to why it is know as "Black Friday" is given in Wikipedia - "Many retailers report some of their highest profits on Black Friday. The black portion of the name, "Black Friday" relates to businesses recording their losses in red ink and gains in black. This tradition lives on in modern accounting software, hence the name."

This infographic provides an insight into the statistical information about “The Black Friday”.
