ABOUT THE BLOG BOOK STYLE AND CONCEPT BY RITA ROLAND VOLUME 1

These blog book is an insight about my fashion style. I want to share my innovative ideas about fashion with my friends and fans. It is all about that woman who walks into a room and light up the whole place. She is sexy, sensual, elegant, glamorous and above all she is bold and beautiful. She is that woman whose beauty comes from within. As you will discover in this journey, she is a lover of the color red and white, that is why red and white is the most used outfit

What do we know about lovers of red:

• Lovers of red are extrovert, optimistic, courageous and confident.

• They are action oriented people with a strong survival instinct and a very competitive mind and loves to win.
• They gain the respect of others quite easily.
• They are passionate about life and are not afraid to pursue their dreams and goals.
• Patience is not one of their strongest point. They can flare up instantaneously but calm down quite quickly.
• They experience life through the five senses

Lovers of white on the other hand:

• Are people who are meticulous about their appearances.
• They are innocent or at least they feel so.
• Lovers of white have a clear view of how they want to live.
• They have high moral standards and expect the best from themselves and others.
• Due to their positive nature they love to surround themselves with like-minded people who are uplifting and motivating.These facts are based on color psychology. You will also discover in style and concept by Rita Roland volume 1, that it is okay to be different. All that matters, is you loving

For your Easter outfit you can choose spring colours which reflect the colour of the blooming trees and flowers of the spring.

You would also choose the colour that flatter your skin tone.

It is also important to choose shoes which you are comfortable in and a bit edgy.

You also have to bear in mind where  your Easter event is going to take place so that you dont over dress or undress.

During Easter period family visit each other and take time to do things together and for the children it is extra special because they get to pick Easter eggs and children like this a lot.

This is also the period for the christian to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Christian believes that Jesus came back to life, or was raised from the dead the third day after his death on the cross, that through this Jesus paid for their sins, so this festival is highly celebrated by the Christian.

It is also an opportunity to dress gorgeous and look beautiful, so choose an outfit that look good on you.

EVENT VENUE SALONSMANTOVANI

Salons Mantovani is a luxury event company which has an elegant traditional interior design.
This reflects the classic European decor, whereby pairing furniture or accessories to create a sense of symmetry around a vocal point or a favourite art work. This helps to emphasize luxury and comfort.
This style fit very well with the type of woman which we tend to inspire.

Salons Mantovani, as you know, is located in Oudenaarde (Oost-Vlaanderen) in “Belgium”
It was established by Mr. André Verhenne and Mr. Luc Verhenne.
The name Mantovani was an inspiration from the Anglo-Italian conductor, composer, Annunzio Paolo Mantovani who died in March 1980. As Mr. André Verhenne and Mr. Luc Verhenne were a huge fan of his work, they decided to name their business after him, thus the birth of Salons Mantovani in September 1980.
During this period in Oudenaarde, there was no multifunctional halls for the dance school. André and Luc decided to contribute to the community by establishing this type of event venue. This made the Mayor of Oudenaarde very proud and happy to have such citizen in his community.
Salons Mantovani render services from meeting halls, wedding, and all type of events you can think of. They have a wonderful team of workers who are dedicated to their job. It is a place where the satisfaction of their client meets their ultimate goal. It is different from all other event venue because they cater for their clients’ needs from A-Z. It is a one stop shopping place for your events.
There are different halls all named after Queens e.g. Hall Paola, Hall Alexandra, Hall Diana and the Foyer which is a general meeting place for lunch. Hall Diana  got our attention because it is named after Luc Verhenne’s mother Diana. This hall is about 625m² and can accommodate 700 people.
Luc Verhenne’s mother Diana was a Queen in the sense that she was always ready to help whenever necessary. She was a woman whose charm and charisma would not be underestimated. She contributed enormously to the success of the business. That is why her legacy will linger on.

“The elegant traditional style of Salons Mantovani is going to be kept.” says  Luc Verhenne and we agree because the atmosphere is very comfortable and give a good luxurious feel.

We also wish that Salons Mantovani does more house catering, since the halls are always booked and not all of us has the privilege to be there with the house catering we can have a taste of their delicious food.

With this we say Salons Mantovani is the best place for all your events.

Have you been there? No?
Not yet ?
Please go and see for yourself and thank us later.

 

 

THE BEAUTY OF THE AUTUMN

Autumn is one of my favorite season of the year, when all the leaves from the trees and plants change their color into Multi colored work of art. It is very beauty sight.

For me been a Nigerian this is very amazing to see in my country we don’t have it.

This beautiful season represent a beautiful cycle of loss, regeneration and regrowth. The dead leaves on the ground disintegrate and turn into part of the soil which becomes fertilizer.

This season is perfect for taking beautiful scenic pictures.

It is very relaxing and rejuvenating to enjoy the nature and the surrounding scenery.

It is a perfect time to take out the coat, light the fire place and it is also a time to go camping, fishing or road trip etc.

The purple multicolored dress fit very well with the scenery since purple symbolizing creativity, wisdom and dignity it was a very nice choose of color for this shoot.

Autumn I greet thee with a dream full of HOPE
