Panama Hats – What You Should Know
Did you know Panama hats are more than just a trendy style of headwear? Not just any hat can be called a Panama hat, even though so many marketers coin in on this name
Authentic Panama hats are not actually made in Panama at all, they are made in Ecuador! I know right! It’s all so confusing! So, where does Panama fit into all of this? Well, today, I’m going to share the inside scoop and show you how to identify an authentic hat and where to buy an authentic Panama hat (yes, they do exist locally) , so let’s keep reading…

I live in linen and have such a love affair with this beautiful, natural fabric that I wanted to chat about what makes linen so special. We’ll talk about everything, including creases and care, why the price tag, and I’ll also share some of my favourite linen pieces to have and to own.
View PostLounge Around in the Coolest Tracksets
After the news we received this weekend, a lot of us will be spending a lot more time lounging around, or at least in lounge about clothing at home! And for that one would require stylish loungewear – am I right?
Nobody want’s to look like frumpty dumpty, so today I’m sharing three of my favourite matchy-matchy loungewear sets that will elevate your stay at home style.

We don’t think twice about to forking out thousands on killer heels and hot boots, yet when it comes to our most worn footwear- that being slippers, we cut corners and buy those cheap and nasty once-off’s that just end up in a landfill (another reason to cringe).
NO MORE! In today’s blog, I’m talking all things FLUFFY FOOTWEAR, focusing on great quality, locally made sheepskin slippers that are a treat for your feet!
View Post5 Stud Earrings to Try Now
Let’s talk about my favourite jewellery accessory shall we? STUDS! I love studs so much!
They are pretty easy to wear and I love creating a story with double studs on my ears.
One of my favourite jewellery brands for really high quality pieces is Georgini. You may remember I did a post on them last year with their gorgeous layered necklaces and some cute earrings, and today I’m showing you pieces from their latest collection, my favourite being all the gorgeous studs!

I have a confession to make…. I gave up my gym membership a while ago, because I’m so over spending my time indoors working out. BORING! These days I’d much rather be out on the road – even if it’s just a walk around my hood. Getting out is so much better especially considering I, like you most likely, spend most of my time cooped indoors and usually stuck behind my computer screen.
It’s nice to get out and see the world and it’s amazing how doing this is better when you have the right shoes!

Last week New Balance released their freshest kicks, the Fresh Foam LAZR and it’s a super cool trainer that will take you from the road to just about any where else you want to go! I haven’t been this excited for a trainer in a long time! And the hubs love his too!

I love travelling. I love wandering and exploring the unknown. Discovering new places, emerging in new cultures. I love it all! There’s a quote by an unknown author that says, “Traveling is the only thing you buy that makes you richer” and it’s true! I love nothing more than experiencing all this for myself, but I also love hearing travel tales and stories from other travellers. And what better way to ignite a travel conversation than by wearing your travel stories on your wrist?

Don’t you just love this weather? Sunny days out in Jozi with a nice chill in the air are my favourite kind! Yes, I’ve fully embraced cozy season and my go-to, casual outfit for every day would look something like this…
View PostLayered Necklaces
A lot of you girls have been asking me about the necklaces that I’m wearing in my profile pic (the same one I wore on this post and on instagram yesterday). Aren’t they just beautiful? Both are from Georgini, an Australian jewellery brand (that’s available from various retailers in South Africa – as well as via their local online store) and they have some truly beautiful pieces; some bold, some dainty, some intricate and some brightly coloured as well. I’ve slowly been trying to build my jewellery collection into something that I love. Bit by bit, I’m adding quality necklaces, rings and especially earrings, because…

As we step into winter, I can’t help but feel a pang of jelousy of all the summer holiday pics doing the rounds on Instagram. I do love winter; mainly because of the clothes, but with regard to makeup, summer is always a fave! Thankfully, even though we’re a season behind the rest of the world, we still get the latest makeup and beauty trends as they launch internationally, and today I want to show you some of the goodies I’ve been playing with from two beautiful new CHANEL collections… First up, the CHANEL 2017 CRUISE COLLECTION – LES INDISPENSABLES…
View Post“Tiger’s Tooth” Necklace
Thomas Sabo jewellery is fast becoming one of my faves. Not only because of the high quality and attention to detail, but their arty, creative and meaningful pieces make Thomas Sabo jewellery all the more special.
You may remember that I featured this “Tiger’s Tooth” Necklace as one of my favourite pieces from the Thomas Sabo Glam and Soul collection and now that I have it in my life, I love it to absolute bits! It’s so beautiful and so special, however to truly appreciate its beauty you should really try to see it with your own eyes.
