This season for me is something really special. I have made the conscious decision of being bold about everything I do, even in my quite moments.   I put together this look not only with BOLD in mind in its physical appearance but how this look made me feel too. I’m so obsessed with these pants I purchased at Topshop more especially because I can dress them up or down. I once wore them with sneakers and a crop top for a sports luxe look and it worked perfectly well! I decided to try styling myself differently this time around and I must say, this look came together even better than I ever could have imagined it would. I also really enjoy the texture of the pieces I am wearing, mesh being my favorite of all time ( closely competing with suede ).   This is definitely a…

#Affiliate Mission BOLD: Invest in YOU. Guys, who doesn’t I love surprises? I sure do! Look at the fabulous one that just arrived on my doorstep! This gorgeous Labello pack includes the whole range so that I’m properly spoilt with variey, as well as the fierce newcomer to the family – Labello Blackberry Shine. This darker shade of fruity has a message:BRING OUT YOUR BOLD. This struck a chord and got me thinking; what is it really to be BOLD? The most famous of all brand call to actions has got to be “Just Do It” – three little words that have gotten into millions of people’s heads and shaped their lives! I won’t focus on the brand, but rather look into the concept – what is it about “just doing it” that makes us feel so empowered, even invincible? I would definitely say that it’s the raw sense…

One of the fashion trends which have had a well deserved resurrection is undoubtedly the mommy jean.  After dying out of the fashion scene 20 years ago, their comeback has been one of the strongest and most consistent I have ever seen. Mommy jeans are constantly being revamped to the current trends but are yet to lose their essence – comfort – which is why we truly love them. Not only do they sit so well on the natural waistline (which makes me wonder about waist-trained waists), what’s not to love about a good pair of blue wash denims which guarantee a good tummy tuck? When I read up further on this fashion must-have, I realized how controversial their return actually was and the big message to them around ones sexuality and embracing ones current body shape. A rather unsettling comment I just had to share: “Mom jeans are designed…

Well , what I’m about to type out has nothing to do with fashion / what I’m wearing in this post but still has everything to do with ME ! On my previous blog I always had posts up of my thoughts and what not , and I really don’t want to dispose of that part of me and being able to share it on my public platforms. So I’m right back ! Anyway , here’s a bit of ME right now: At no point is the position you are in of no contribution to your growth . At every stage of your life , the position you are in is for you to be of service , to a bigger picture than yourself . And from serving come lessons and furthermore growth. The very growth which you require to fully take advantage of and be “ready ” to handle…

So I have had the absolute pleasure once again of working with the newly re branded The Fix of The Foschini Group. This time around I had to create the perfect #OOTD look. From researching current trends , to trying to keep it as simple , relevant and relateable as can be . Putting together my look worked out trickier than most would imagine . Accessories are EVERYTHING at achieving the perfect edgy look. You can shop my entire look from The Fix  #TheFixZA_OOTD – Black peep toe suede boots with eyelets for the edgy look – Choker with black fringe for the sass – Black leather bag with chunky chain detail which you can rock as a clutch / sling bag Photographer : @Innographer 

It’s that time of the year once again where it starts getting a bit more chilly and the coats and jackets come out to play. Personally , Autumn and Winter are my favorite seasons because of the fashion  . For now , having not fully stepped into the Winter season ( Esp. Durban ) , it’s always worked out best to have a light coat / jacket to throw over when the weather switches up on you. Something light which also doesn’t kill your outfit. So I have decided to share with you images of me taken not so long ago  in a few coats which really won me over.

The Monday blues is what they’re called but I sure am one to experience Friday Blues , where the weekend seems so far but yet so close and you just can’t wait for the working day to end. This is a feeling surely experienced by every single one of us as we reminisce on the memories made from our past weekend looking forward to the wonderful adventures of the one to come. This look is perfect at depicting that lazy effortless “Friday Blues ” mood for your day to day movements on campus or in the office . A pair of sandals or preferred style of high heels carry this image  well for the office , or if you’re on campus just throw on some flats ( not pumps – pleaaaaaase !! ) . The shirt offers the button up option but we opted for the unbuttoned look which gives a softer touch to…
