Girls, it’s time to break open those piggy banks because Rebecca Minkoff handbags are (FINALLY) available in South Africa. Can I get a yeee-haaa and a heeeell-yeah!? Last month I gave you a peak at my new Rebecca Minkoff baby, and I promised you a post with some of my favourite Rebecca Minkoff bags, that you can get your hands on right here in South Africa!

Hello February! Firstly, what happened to January? I swear, I blinked and it was gone! Either I’m getting old, far too quickly, or time is on sport mode! Since time ran away from me and I didn’t get a chance to post my wish-list/ want list for January, today’s post is my first wishlist of 2017…

You know that feeling you get when you find T-H-E perfect handbag? Well, it just happened to me! Finally, a bag that not only looks super cute, stylish and edgy, but a bag that fits my lifestyle! Ladies, say hello to my latest Rebecca Minkoff baby (I call all my Rebecca Minkoff bags my babies BTW); the Unlined Bucket Bag. Before I show you the beauty of this bag, how I styled it with a bit of a rock-chick edge and why it fits my lifestyle, I have THE best news: Rebecca Minkoff handbags have just launched in South Africa! As in properly launched – by an authorized distributor and they are available at selected Stuttafords stores. So, you can touch, feel, buy and love all your Rebecca Minkoff bag dreams without having to jet off to an overseas destination, or endure pesky import and customs duties. You gals know that I have been a longtime fan of Rebecca Minkoff handbags, since I bought my first Love Crossbody bag. When it comes to designer hand bags, her bags are my first choice! The quality is impeccable and all her bags are made from top class leathers and hardware. The styles…

Like many of you I am sure, I’ve got a thing for beautiful jewellery! I love a special statement piece that I can just wear and it instantly makes me feel special. Like this Larimar Open Forms Bracelet – isn’t it just incredible?

My love for trenches continues! A trench is such a classic piece. It works all year round, no matter the season. I love the structured, almost military silhouette of this one I bought at ZARA recently. It always makes me feel polished and pulled together. My Perfect winter outfit! And what’s winter without a Starbucks Vanilla Bean Macchiato?! I swear, every time I’m at Mall of Africa, I just can’t resist my little Starbucks fix! I’m obsessed!

I don’t know if I’ve said this enough, but I LOVE ESSIE! Every time they launch a new collection, I get excited and their Winter Collection has me feeling all kinds of warm and fuzzy! It’s titled Ski Chic Adventure and the Global Colour Designer for this collection is none other than one of my favourite designers, Rebecca Minkoff! It’s a winter wonderland of pretty, wintery nail colours that will melt your heart…

Classic, red plaid is one of those essential winter patterns that just keeps making a comeback! Actually, I don’t think it’s ever really been out of fashion, which makes me wonder why it’s taken me so long to embrace it in my wardrobe!? Nonetheless, I’m feeling the whole country girl vibe right now and it’s all thanks to this cute as a button -seriously just wait ’till you see the cute shirttail button detail at the back- plaid shirt from Lucky Brand…

I have the ultimate love/hate relationship with online shopping internationally. When I discovered it years ago, I was hooked, but after many, many disappointing experiences with shipping and especially dealing with our local post office and customs in SA (grrr), I just gave up! The problem though, is that I’m a shop-a-holic, and I can’t stop myself from browsing what’s out there – it’s part of my job, so I guess I kinda of have to (or at least that’s my story and I’m sticking to it). Plus, I am always fascinated by all the pretty things we can’t get in SA, which only makes me want them more! Sound familiar? Well gals, I’ve got the answer to all your online shopping dilemmas thanks to Aramex Global Shopper – the super efficient service that takes all the pain and hassle out of shopping online internationally, shipping, dealing with the South African Post office and customs! Now that I’ve found Aramex Global Shopper, I think we’ll be besties, and my lovely readers, you too can become BFF’s as I have discounted coupon for all of you later on in this post (under my “How it Works” heading). But first, let me tell you all about my really easy shopping experience and show you my new Rebecca Minkoff…

I realize today’s post is a little late, considering we’re already into the second week of March, but I’ve been under the weather and haven’t had the energy to post. Nonetheless, I’m feeling a lot better and wanted to start my first blog post of March as a tribute to my favourite month of the year! I love March for a number of reasons. Firstly, it’s my Birthday month and it also happens to be my anniversary month. March is also (usually) filled with holidays, plus it’s the dawn of a brand new season. So in keeping up with tradition, it’s wish list time again – ya know, just putting it out there for the universe to see…

Give a girl the right stripes, and she can rock any look! Well, in my case at least! I could live in stripes and IMO you can never have too many striped options in your wardrobe. I just love how stripes add that street style look to what ever you’re wearing, plus they are such versatile pieces.

My current bag obsession is the Chloe Drew Mini Crossbody Bag. For me, a crossbody bag is everything, and I am obsessed with this one… It’s kinda got that whole boho vibe going on, while still being a great looking bag that can be incorporated into many different looks. Of course, I like to aim for the stars and dream about the beauty of this bag, hoping that it will one day be mine. But I live in the real world, so in the meantime, while I’m dreaming, I’ve scoured the net to find fabulous alternatives. Which one is your fave? Take my poll at the end of this post Save: Woolworths Colourblock Crossbody Bag When I spotted this Woolies beaut, I was like….. hello lover! It’s totally cute and although the colour block is completely different to the Chloe one, it’s a bag I know I’ll wear to death! The bold lock and chain front trim reminds me of the Chloe bag, and I love that it looks similar, but isn’t a complete replica – I hate that! I’m all for buying the “more down to earth version” of a handbag, but even then, I want it to have it’s own look, and…
