The Art Of Living

  Art in some form or another has existed as long as man. It is a part of our daily lives and is present in cultures across the world. Most people have an appreciation for art.

HOW TO WEAR A MINI SKIRT

Mini skirts are funny items that are never really out of style. Here's how to look amazing in one.   Choose the right skirt.  Not all minis are equal. Some have more space than others. The classic A-line and bias cuts flatter most women, whilst the tighter variety tends to work best on the long-legged, slim, younger wearer. - Very tight, short, or otherwise revealing minis tend to be favoured by younger wearers, or those with good physiques.   - A flowing mini creates a softer, more summery feel.   - Older wearers are likely to feel more comfortable in minis that don’t cling. Consider such choices as kilts, wraps and pleats. Darker colours are better for a more professional and elegant look.   - A high-waisted mini can give...

A HISTORY OF THE FASHION TURBAN

Since its arrival in the West at the end of the 17th century, the turban has been worn by women, both as an expression of glamour and as a way to keep hair in check.

A-LINE

This classic skirt flaunts an early-’60s attitude, and the polished daytime look is ever-appropriate. But our A-line obsession is rooted in the universally flattering, hip-and-thigh disguising shape that lets us have our cake and eat it too. And for that, it will always have a place in our closet.  HOW TO WEAR IT   There’s a prim, clean-scrubbed vibe to these skirts. So add a fitted little jacket or a basic belt, and carry a structured bag. And while it may be tempting to slip on a pair of flats, these skirts, especially those that fall below the knee, beg for the height of a ladylike heel. ...
