You definitely can't wear this to the office. Or can you?   Having just made MY (new) PEACE of jewelry NECKLACE   I was anxious to wear it. So I paired it with t-shirt.  Available on Etsy     The necklace, I made using repurposed brass link chains, lucite oval beads,  round faux pearl beads plus a foreign coin. It's a bib-style "statement" necklace.           knit cap - Urban Outfitters Camo-jacket - thrifted *ankle length black jeans - Levi's black wing tip shoes - thrifted *hobo purse - Urban Outfitters *My Wish List Items     I made earrings too; in fact two pairs of drop earrings.

Van Halen! Ok, I am not really into Van Halen, but I love Rock n' Roll t-shirts.  I love pairing ethnic statement necklaces with rock n' roll t-shirts. Statement necklaces with  jeans and t-shirt is just beautiful; at least for me they are beautiful, I feel "nice" when I combine them. "dressed up" is the word, but "special" is not. I rarely wear heels and I don't wear many dresses but I LOVE wearing JEWELRY! I love wearing necklaces and earrings. And how to combine a unisex, tomboyish and adrogynous clothes with frou frou jewelry is my challenge Here is my view.

MY PEACE of nutrition - Bananas

Image
I want to be more aware of what I am eating and why I should eat certain foods. I eat too much processed food, i.e., frozen dinners, take out, potato chips. .   The easiest way to permanently change your diet; is change it moderately over time. Anything done drastically, will not last. So instead of forcing myself to eat ONLY fruit, I will add a piece of fruit per week. Last week it was an apple a day.   This week it's bananas.   A banana a day is a must have, according to "The Healthy Food Directory" by Michael Van Straten.   Why? One banana contains just over a quarter of the daily requirement of vitamin B 6 A banana a day is highly recommended to replenish vitamin B 6  because the vitamin is water soluble, meaning it dissolve in water and cannot be stored by the body. Excess amounts of vitamin B 6 are flushed out of the body through urine. Since the body cannot store these vitamins, they need to be replenished ...
