That Scandalous Outfit

Bianca Censori made headlines this week for her scandalous "outfit" at the Grammy Awards. So many people have expressed their opinions on it and now I want to share mine. 

First of all, for anyone who doesn't keep up with celebrity news and doesn't know who Bianca Censori is, she is an Australian model married to American rapper Kanye West, also known as Ye.

I say "outfit" in air quotes because, well, look at it. Can you really call that an outfit? It's like she wrapped herself in plastic or cling wrap and I don't like it at all. How was she allowed to enter like that? I'm sure all award shows and big events like this have a dress code attendees should adhere to. Grammy's executive producer Raj Kapoor said that the guests who are invited to attend the show must adhere to an "artistic black-tie" dress code, adding "but in the music industry I guess that's up for interpretation." It is true that when it comes to fashion in the music industry, anything goes. We have seen celebrities in some revealing and daring outfits over the years but surely this is taking it too far?
Would you go to a party looking naked like this? I don't think so. As daring as people can go at these events, I'm sure there's a point where they are crossing the line. This very inappropriate and we have to remember that children do attend the Grammy Awards and they shouldn't have to see it. Shakira brought her two sons along with her and they are 10 and 12 years old. Beyonce and Jay-Z's thirteen year-old daughter Blue Ivy was there and I think she looked so elegant and classy in her blue corset gown. Bianca, look at that! You are a beautiful woman. You don't need to be naked to show your beauty. 

We all could have our thoughts on why she showed up that way. Maybe she likes wearing scandalous outfits or they wanted more attention and to be on the front of  every news publication. If that's it, that is silly. There are so many better ways to get attention. Maybe Ye is controlling her, which is what so many people are thinking. Actually, I think so too. I have never seen a photo of Bianca smiling. She doesn't look too miserable, but she certainly doesn't look happy. Is there domestic abuse happening between them? Nobody knows what happens behind close doors but I think this woman really needs her help. Where are her parents? Siblings? Friends? If I were one of them, I would be checking on her regularly to make sure she is okay. I have never been a fan of Kanye West. I have never liked his music or anything about him. He just seems strange and a bit scary to me. I'm wondering if he and Bianca ever break up, she will reveal that she was abused and controlled by him. 

Women's bodies are beautiful, a work of art, and no one should be ashamed. I have nothing against people wearing revealing outfits if they want to but I don't think anyone should wear something like Bianca did to any event, especially one where the media will be present, taking photos and the whole world will be watching. If you want to be naked, do that home. 

Bianca's eye-brow raising, scandalous outfit raises many questions, including what is really appropriate to wear to an awards show and when should the organisers turn away guests who are dressed too inappropriately. I think they should set a certain dress code and actually enforce it.

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar.  I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed.  There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...

The Prove It Game

The public opinions on Meghan Markle, or Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are divided. Some love her and most seem to hate her. I admire her in some ways. I just watched an interview she did with podcast host Jamie Kern Lima and something she said resonated with me.  Image from Jamie Kern Lima YouTube.  Here it is: "We spend so much of our lives trying to prove something. You have to prove that you're enough, you have to prove that you're pretty enough, you have to prove that you're smart enough, you have to prove that you're a good wife or a good friend, and I am just so done with the prove it game. When you get to the place where you feel like I don't have to prove anything to you anymore. I don't have to prove that I'm a good person, I don't have to prove that I'm a good wife or mum or friend, I don't have to prove that I work hard. It can be really freeing when you stop playing the prove it game." - Meghan Markle. I completely agree with...

Social Media Ban

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said that the Australian Government will enact laws to ban children under 16 years of age from social media and here I am sharing my thoughts on this.  Image from The Chapel Hairdressers - Horsham Facebook page  There are many benefits of social media. We can share photos and videos with our families and friends to keep them updated on our lives, instantly communicate with them, have a record of special memories, businesses can promote their products and services, connect with people professionally and do so much more. So many people are working on social media full time as influencers, working with brands and creating content online  and some have even married people they met online.  Social media can also be used as a weapon.   Preteens and teenagers go through puberty, stress about getting good grades at school, do their best to live up to their parents expectations, have many things they are worried about and just wan...
