Toilet Paper Rolls ... Is that art ?

If I was asked what are the possible uses for a toilet paper roll I would say  the very private one, and the second one a Halloween prank.
However I found a new use !

 Sakir Gökcebag, a Hamburg-based Turkish artist, makes Trans-Layers installations, made out of hundreds of toilet paper rolls that drape down the walls creating beautiful patterns.
 
 Previously, he has used such normal objects as clocks, brooms, umbrellas and such.. Turns out, almost anything can have undiscovered artistic potential! Which leads me on to the question , What is art ?
Wikipedia says
  1. The expression or application of human creative skill and imagination
  2. Works produced by such skill and imagination
 
 
So what about if I put a scribbled doodle in a gallery , does that make it art ?
 
Anyway on with the Toilet Rolls .... they are some creative bits of paper !!


 


Keep It Simple

today i will wear...

 Keep It simple with this pink infused outfit. Peter Pan collars are very on trend this season so be sure to grab one and wear it with style. The Chelsea Boots are equally as fabulous and they are just so adorable or Adorkable.

Dress smart , think smart, feel casual

EPOCA blouse

This is such a great daytime look. It's smart yet can be casual and this Jimmy Choo clutch does add a touch of sophisticated power into the outfit. I am also completely in love with the little tiger arm cuff just because it's so adorable.

I love this jacket because it would brighten any cold winter weather and the orange skirt completely clashes for an eye opening fun filled day. These shoes are just too cool and everything else just fits into place. Click on the link below to see where these pieces are from.

The Duck Face

You can't say you don't know what I mean by 'The duck face' . The face most teenage girls pull in a mirror and take endless selfies and hashtag #nohates or #imsougly . This is utterly bizarre.

 What do these people do with their lives ? They actually have time to do this . The attention seeking little orange people with plastic nails really do get on my nerves particularly when they appear on my Facebook news feed every 30 seconds with a new collection of edited selfies .

These people are either really desperate or have an obsession with wearing as little as possible for as long as possible .

OR maybe they are trying to get Pneumonia ? Maybe the teenagers of our world are just attention seeking plastic fantastic kids who decided to be the Barbie doll when they grew up but they never did .

What is our generation going to be like in 70 years ? Currently when people say the words 'jean' and 'short' they mean denim undies. I really don't get the bum falling out of shorts look with tights.

What has our world come to ?

Sunday evenings - A warm bubbly bath

Nobody calls me on a Sunday . Except my warm , smelly bubble bath. Surrounded by my absolute favourite Jo Malone Basil and lime  candles.

Below are my absolute favourite relaxants for a Sunday evening.

1. Jo Malone Lime and Basil candle . The scent is just too gorgeous .
2. Vanilla Bliss bath Crystals from the body shop keep your body smelling AMAZING .
3. A rubber duck . Everyone loves them and a bath wouldn't be the same without one .
