“Peek-a-Boo” Sleeves – 3 Ways!

“Peek-a-Boo” Sleeves – 3 Ways!

My current obsession is wearing striped tees (long for winter) and layering them with a denim shirt or camo jacket. Then, rolling the sleeves up just a bit to let the stripes peek out. This style is very JCrew, and I love it! It gives an otherwise boring outfit a stylish edge! I’m obsessed! Here are three ways I’ve worn peek-a-boo sleeves… I wore this outfit when we went up Sani Pass back in March this year. It was fa-fa-freezing up there! The darker it got, the colder it got. I managed to wear this outfit while the sun (not that you can see it) was out, and later I put on my leather bomber jacket under my sleeveless puffer jacket. I love the combination of my denim shirt and the black and white long sleeved tee. Look at how the stripes peek out on the arms, and I love how the stripes peek out at the back too! Nothing I’m wearing in this outfit is new, except for my Caterpillar Military Boots! Black Jeans – Woolworths RE, Black & White Tee – Zara, Denim Shirt – Edgars, Puffer Sleeveless Jacket – Woolworths. When I did the CROCS “Make A Splash” shoot in April, we had…

Wanna Win A Pair of Crocs Wellies?

Wanna Win A Pair of Crocs Wellies?

So you’ve seen the lovely new range of wellies and rainboots by Crocs and you probably want a pair, right? Well good news gang – I’m giving a pair away to one lucky StyleScooper Trooper so keep reading! I was invited by CROCS to check out the styles and put their rainboots to the test in a recent photoshoot in Cape Town. Together with a group of fab bloggers, we had loads of fun playing in the rain. During the shoot we got to test out the rainboots and see how they perform! I’m totally smitten with these boots and love all the pretty colours and styles they come in. There are two options; The Wellie Rainboot, which is your traditional gumboot, but much, much lighter and the super stylish Rainfloe Boot, which is a a bit softer with a rubberized, flexi shaft. Both are extremely comfortable and so light, it will shock you when you put them on! CROCS was kind enough to give each of us two pairs of boots to take home. Most of us picked a pair in each style. I went for these Wellie Rainboots in Forrest navy. They are a beautiful army green colour and have…

Make a Splash! We Heart the New CROCS Rain Boots & Wellies

Make a Splash! We Heart the New CROCS Rain Boots & Wellies

CROCS have just released their brand new rain-boots, perfect for our wet winters in South Africa. Together with some beautiful bloggers, we got to put these new boots to the test in a recent, and very wet, photo-shoot for Crocs in Cape Town! I’ll give you more details on that a little later (so keep an eye out for the pics), but for today, I wanted to share these amazing boots with you. The Wellie Rainboot is a traditional styled gum boot, that besides being super cool (it comes in six fabulous shades), is also extremely light! I tell you, when I tried these boots on, I was beyond impressed with how light they were! They are made from fully molded Croslite™ material that gives them this lightweight profile and they are completely waterproof. I own a pair of Hunter boots that I bought myself last year, and while they are fabulous and stylish, they are extremely heavy to wear, especially if you plan on staying in your shoes all day! The Wellie Raiboot, as mentioned comes in six beautiful colours, my favourite being the forrest navy, which is an army green and goes with everything. They are also available in mulberry (black), cranberry (red), espresso (brown), fuchsia/…

Bubblegum Casual Crocs

Bubblegum Casual Crocs

Every blogger needs an outfit post and a jumping photo… I hope you all had a fantastic holiday yesterday. I did a bit of work on my bloggy, but seeing as it was a holiday, I went for a laid-back casual outfit. Since I was feeling all relaxed and left my inbox unopened, I decided to take out my camera and do a li’l outfit post for ya, showing you my fab bubblegum pink Crocs! These lace-up canvas Crocs are beyond cool and comfy too! The colour, well, it’s amazing and kinda makes an otherwise boyish shoe look very girly! I love the rounded toe detail on the front – so retro!. These look so much more stylish than plain old sneakers, and the Croslite™ material midsole offers great lightweight cushioning for your feet – perfect for shopping! They are made of a lightweight, breathable canvas and also come in black, oyster, raspberry and navy. I’m usually a size 6/ US8/ EUR 39 and the six fits me perfectly. You can find these at Crocs authorized retailers, or buy them online via the Crocs SA website, www.mycrocs.co.za – they retail at R499.95 a pair! I’m wearing: White Top – Meltz, Boyfriend…

Rocking my Crocs – The Crocband Winter Boot

Rocking my Crocs – The Crocband Winter Boot

I never thought I’d say this, ever, but I am seriously rocking my Crocs! Now I know what you’re thinking, Crocs? Seriously? Gone are the days of the plastic-not-so-fantastic Crocs clog! Crocs are actually starting to look pretty cool. They’ve introduced a whole wack of new styles, some of them in canvas and leather options! I have never owned a pair of Crocs before. For me, I didn’t care how comfortable the Croc Clogs were, there was no way I’d wear them. But now, since Crocs have introduced so many fab new styles (you can view them all here), I’m actually quite excited about Crocs. Besides them being totally cute, they are comfy, excellent quality and trendy too! Don’t believe me? Just check out these gorgeous Croc’s Winter Boots They come in black, brown (espresso) and white (oyster). While I’ve never been a fan of white shoe anything, a pair of plush booties like these in white actually look rather cute and oh so wintery! As I mentioned, these boots are super comfy and fabulous for a casual winter day. They cost R649.95 and are available online as well as at the following retailers nationwide: Crocs stores, selected Cape Union…
