Take Me Back To The Beach

Take Me Back To The Beach

Ahhh, summer days are drawing to an end, and all I can think about is going back to the beach! I miss my old city, Durban, and while I love it here in Jozi, I really do miss the beach! The thing with living in Durban with the beach “right there”, is how many times do you actually go when you’re a “local”?

Quite Possibly, the Best Beach Sarong

Last weekend we met up with friends at the beach. My friend Tracy had the most amazing sarong-slash-towel-slash-beach-wrap, and lucky for me,

My Snapshots from Crete – Greece’s Island Paradise

It’s been two weeks since the hubs and I have been back from holiday. Things things have been so manic trying to catch-up, I’ve only now had a chance to even look through my holiday pics. Since I was organizing my snapped memories, I thought I’d share some of my fave pics with you guys. There are a lot, so I’ve split them into two posts, the second one I’ll post on Friday. I didn’t take my “big boy” camera along with all the time, which I regret now – but thankfully we both had our phones with us, so we could at least snap some memories. Today I’ll share some pics from our island holiday in Crete,

Shop of the Week Kangol Bikini 2 Pack

Shop of the Week Kangol Bikini 2 Pack

Last year, I bought the most awesome bikini set from Kangol. The set included a plain, bright blue bikini top and bottom as well as a second matching top and bottom in black. I had hoped that they would bring out something similar this year and they have! This gorgeous royal purple bikini that comes with a matching striped set too. What I love most about these bikinis, is that they fit really well and feel comfortable. Plus in both sets (this years and last years set) you could mix and match the tops and bottoms to have not two, but four bikini style options. This is a great buy if you’re on the hunt for a bikini this summer! They are sold in two-packs (tops and bottoms separately) and are reasonably priced. The two bikini tops cost R259.95 (for the set) and R219 .95 for the 2 bottoms, also sold as a set. The other great thing about buying tops and bottoms separately is that you can get different sizes if you’re smaller on top and bigger at the bottom, or visa versa (lucky you!). Have you started hunting for your perfect bikini yet?

Flip flop fabulous

Flip flop fabulous

Beach days are drawing nearer, which means sun, bronzed bods and bikinis.  But it also means that some of us will have to “come back down to earth” – literally, ditching our heels and clutches for flip flops and straw beach bags.  But, just because you’re walking at a lower level, doesn’t give you an excuse to step down the level of your style. Check out the new range of Ipanema flip flops by super model Gisele Bündchen, which have launched in South Africa and are available at Woolworths stores, in a wide variety of colours and styles. I love the first pair (1), seeing as my husband is six foot and I stand around 5.3.  I need a little something to lift me up a bit.  Sadly, this pair was not available when I went to check it out, but I noticed that some of the other styles are available.  I think I’ll wait for “my pair” to come out though. They are great flops and and very comfortable too.  I bought a pair of last years style , just before the new range launched – with grey rubber soles and glittery silver straps.  What I really like about…
