How to Style a Monochrome Maxi Dress

Hey there! So, let me tell you about this dress—it's a total showstopper! Seriously, without even saying a word, it commands attention. Did you catch the video of it on Instagram? If you did, then welcome to the blog post dedicated to this stunning piece. I'm absolutely smitten with it. It's one of those rare finds that just clicks with you, you know? Monochrome never really felt like my thing, but this dress? It's like it was tailor-made for me. Hats off to Rosewe for knocking it out of the park with this one. And let me tell you, it looks even better in person than it does on the website.

I've always been a sucker for maxi dresses, no matter the season. Back when I was in Ukraine, they were practically my uniform. Now that May's here and the weather's playing nice, it's the perfect time to break them out again. Maxi dresses just have this effortless vibe about them, you know? And they make getting dressed a breeze. For this look, I kept it simple with a pair of sandals.


Now, let's talk about styling a monochrome dress. The key? Keep it simple. Black is your best friend when it comes to accessorizing a monochrome outfit like this one. Trust me, you can't go wrong. So, if you're on the hunt for a versatile, statement-making piece to add to your summer wardrobe, look no further than this Black and White Maxi Sleeveless Round Neck Dress from Rosewe. It might just surprise you, like it did for me.






Yesterday, I visited the Riverside Museum in Glasgow, which I planned as part of my weekend mini-tour. The day before, I cleaned my house, got new bed sheets, and bought scented candles from Tesco, which I'll share with you all later on the blog.

While I wanted to enjoy every bit of this experience, I also wanted to savor the view. So, while I was on the bus (I got a day ticket to move around), I set my phone aside, letting the music play as I looked around at the city. It was a sunny day, and I cherished every minute of the journey.

When I reached my bus stop, I got off in front of a charity shop, checked it out, and then walked down to the Riverside Museum. I had to use my map to navigate to the location and received help from a lovely woman too.

Guess what was the first beauty I saw on my way? It was the River Kelvin, a tributary of the River Clyde in northern and northeastern Glasgow, Scotland. It rises on the moor southeast of the village of Banton, east of Kilsyth.

Anyway, when I arrived at the museum, there was a lot to see, I must say. I enjoyed every bit of history and experience, from the old street view to the various modes of transportation like cars, bikes, trains, and ships. It was an immersive experience that transported you back in time.

This made me wonder why much of this has changed because most of those cars seemed sturdier than the ones we have today, and the trains had robust bodywork. I even saw some unique bicycles.

I honestly love old cars, or if you prefer, vintage cars. I hope to own a Lada someday.

Just before I entered the ship exhibit, my phone died, and I couldn't take photos of it. I had my Chromebook in my bag, so I plugged it in, but it wasn't charging for long, for reasons I don't know yet, but I'll check later.

Well, when my phone managed to power up, I quickly took photos. Also, it was about time since I purchased a large frame from the charity store I needed to pick up before 5, so I had to leave without fully enjoying the ship exhibit. I plan to visit again, this time looking so good or wearing a dress because I will take photos of the ship and also have that summer beauty glowing. 

This place is free entry and you get free water tap at the entrance. At the entrance I was given a site plan to add my experience. 

Address to the Riverside museum: 100 Point House Rd, Govan, Glasgow G3 8RS. It is free entry.

My Visit to the Riverside Museum in Glasgow

Lana's daughter Emma comes back from London with news of her upcoming wedding next month. The situation takes a twist when Lana discovers that the man who captured Emma's heart is the son of the individual who shattered hers many years ago.

This movie is about a bride and her mother who dated the father of her future husband in high school. They only discovered upon arrival at the hotel in Thailand that her daughter was marrying the son of her former boyfriend, who left her unexpectedly.

It was an awkward situation that brought back a lot of memories for the mom, who even expressed her fear to her daughter that her ex's son might do the same thing to her. However, the daughter reassured her that they are two different people.

The movie revolves around love, comedy, and fun. Its high-quality production keeps you glued to the screen, giving a sense of déjà vu, but this time, the mother of the bride is the one with an ex present at the wedding venue.

She's not allowed to write her own vows, wear the dress she likes, or do what she wants because her daughter, an influencer, is sponsored by designer brands and wants to promote them on her big day. The mother feels her daughter is losing sight of what's important and isn't happy about it, leading to a fight between them. This results in the mother confronting her ex why he left her without a word during their younger years.

Additionally, the mother attracts an admirer who seeks a date with her and witnesses her encounter with her ex after an evening boat ride. It's awkward, but watching the movie is both fun and cool.

Top Summer Park Outfit Ideas: What to Wear for Your Next Stroll

Are you someone who loves to take walks in the park in the summer, just like me? I never miss the opportunity of going to the park in the summer, especially living in Scotland, where there is actually no summer weather, realistically speaking, because you still have to dress warm either way in the evening and some days are cold, so it's just more like in one month of the year we get to experience some days of good sunshine, some accompanied by rain and cold nights.

However, on those days that give us that extreme summer feel, we have to dress to suit the weather. I always make sure I soak myself in the sunshine to feel the sun. I love the sun a lot, and since I like taking a walk in the park, I am sharing what to wear for a walk in the park.

Let's talk about breathable clothes. They're essential for everyone. Even in blazing summers, you can stay cool and chic. Sip cold drinks and wear breathable fabrics to keep your style game strong without overheating.


These fabrics are like magic under the sun, stopping you from feeling too hot and sticky. Ideal for places where it's always warm, they let air flow through, so you stay fresh and comfy all day.

When should I wear breathable clothes? Well, summertime calls for it! Especially in places like the subcontinent, where the summers get hot and sticky. It's not just the heat, but also the dust and sweat that make things challenging.

So, opt for those lovely dresses made from breathable fabrics, like the Tribal Print Breathable Black A Line Sleeveless Dress. Light and natural materials are key when the temperature rises.

Wear comfortable flats that let you walk freely without dragging your feet and raising dust.

When taking a walk to the park, I like to go without a bag. I like to keep it as simple as I can, which means I just walk around and sit and view the environment and watch people. I like to disconnect from my phone and be in real life, and if need be, I sit on the grass and enjoy the sun

Going to the park is one of the best things I love to do, but just before I conclude, I got my white slippers from Zara.

More data suggests multivitamins can delay cognitive decline.

Taking a daily multivitamin tablet could help prevent reductions in certain elements of cognition, at least for a few years, based on the sufficient research that has already been published on the topic. However, I was also aware that more extensive and superior research was almost finished and would probably offer a more reliable response. They have now. The latest study you're referring to was most likely organized at Harvard and involved medical centers across the country. A randomized controlled trial was the ideal sort of study for assessing the efficacy of a treatment: some patients were randomly assigned to take the multivitamin pill, while others were assigned to take an identical-looking placebo. And, until the study's conclusion, neither the subjects nor the research team knew who had taken the multivitamins.

The latest study, published in the January 2024 issue of The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, included participants aged 60 and up. In many ways, it outperforms previous investigations. It included more people (almost 5,000), monitored participants for longer periods of time (more than two years), and tested cognitive capacities more precisely—both before and after they began taking multivitamins. Two components of cognition known to predict the later development of Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia were assessed: global cognition and episodic memory. Because both of these indicators naturally drop with age, the study sought to determine whether people who took multivitamins experienced a slower decline than those who took a placebo.

Indeed, those taking multivitamins had lower declines in both of these cognitive tests over two years than those taking a placebo. This was observed consistently in all groups of people, regardless of age, gender, race or ethnicity, weight, diet, or pre-study cognitive ability. There were no side effects reported from using multivitamins.

Based on the findings of this study, taking a daily multivitamin pill delays age-related cognitive loss for at least two years in people aged 60 and up. However, many essential questions remain unanswered. Will this benefit continue if people take multivitamins for more than two years? Do regular multivitamins lessen the chance of developing dementia? How do multivitamins achieve their beneficial effects? The tablet used in this study comprised more than 20 vitamins and minerals; are only a few of them responsible for the beneficial effect? These questions can only be solved through research. We need the answers.
