Clothes should be comfortable

Clothes should be comfortable at all sizes 

It is time to get past the trend of tight clothing and switch to actually comfortable clothing. 

Wardrobe items have became far too uncomfortable. It is time to get comfy in quirky flattering outfits. Women should not have to squeeze into something figure hugging. High neck lines should not reach all the way to shoulder height. After all this innovation, after so many years of adaptation, surely ladies everywhere could be afforded the luxury of clothing that fits comfortably.  

This top below, for example, can be either worn open or tied up. It is loose and flowing enough for anyone to adapt it to a unique body shape. The top has freedom. It has plenty of space in the arms. This is how clothes should be. Skin tight apparel would be alright if it felt comfortable. But relaxed silhouettes are exactly what many consumers need. 
Practical changes can be made for many clothes to feel more suited to the individuals who wear them. Not everything has to be fastened with a zipper. A line mini skirts allow more room than straight pencil skirts. Sweater dresses shouldn't stretch when conforming to real bodies. There are so many ways in which wardrobes should be filled with more practical pretty pieces.  

The moral of the story is to shop selectively. Do not settle for something that almost fits. There is always a way to adapt pieces for individual needs. Hourglass Apparel is one of the efforts to select truly versatile styles for most shapes and sizes. Change is coming. Positive body image is on the rise.

Funny tiredness stories

Stuff we do when tired...

Do you ever end up tired enough for those funny silly mistakes? I have made a few of them lately. The bus arrived and I reached for a weekly card - quickly stopped myself from presenting my drivers' license instead. How many people have confessed to, in the morning, realising they poured orange juice onto cereal? 
My feared tired trip-ups include:  Ordering something at a bar and then forgetting to take it.  Forgetting your login until the web site thinks you're a hacker.  Forgetting to put the garbage out (I have only seen that happen on Buffy).  Mixing up words - flipper instead of slipper, or saying yesterday instead of tomorrow. 
And then the stuff others might do:  The nice kid at Maccas serves you a Grand Angus when you asked for the Mighty Angus (serious issue because one has bacon and the other has lettuce). Pizza delivery people giving the wrong change (true story told in a lecture).  Bees- this is relevant - they become less precise, just li…

The Seekers Golden Jubilee

Image




The Seekers are celebrating a very special time in their lives, and including their fans in the festivities. Dudith Durham, Bruce Woodley, Keith Potger, and Athol Guy have been a band for 50 years. That's right, a Golden Jubilee means 50 years in show biz. Before we have a look at the latest media attention, here's a quick background into the world of Seekers tours.

Judith Durham said on 60 minutes that they really had an easy career. Judith now realises she took for granted the instant TV coverage they received just a day after they arrived in England. Success welcomed the group whenever they wanted it. Judith then chose time off from the group for independence and to find her own identity. But the memory of The Seekers stayed with the public. And hence the later tours.

Judith has continually been able to return to the group with the same support from fans ever since. Their 25th anniversary Silver Jubilee (when I was 4) sparked a decade of performances. They united aft…

News Should Not Be Restricted

Image
The Sydney Morning Herald has implemented a monthly charge for users to access articles on their web site. Only the first 30 articles are free. Under the current system, readers would pay up to $300 a year. This dollar value assumes such a news source is not substitutable. Or is it? There was talk of this being planned for quite a while. But it is still a massive shock to the loyal readers.

The good old SMH has kept a flow of revenue from advertisements for some time. That should be enough. Sometimes a pop up would grab our attention before being closed. A banner in the footer of the home page (that is an attempt at descriptive techie lingo) is all about American Express. Links on the right hand side promoted anything and everything. That should have been enough. Our favourite brands would have paid big bucks for exposure on a very popular online site.

Let's hope there is a very good reason for the SMH to suddenly restrict the site to subscriptions. A monthly payment is too much…
