Before H&M rolled into the country, my favourite places to shop for the cosiest winter knits were at Zara and Country Road. But this season, I’m adding H&M (my fave place to shop) into my favourites selection, because their knitwear is just so friggin gorgeous!

I like to buy quality knitwear and usually look at the label to find ones that have at least some natural fibres in the mix, and I think H&M has hit the spot this season with some of their knits. And without letting go of my trusted favourites (ZARA and Country Road), today I’m showing you gals my fave pics from all three.

I feel like it’s been ages since I spoke about shoes! I mean really, really spoke about shoes! A whole post dedicated to my favourite accessory on earth! I’ll admit my shoe-wearing days have become very casual of late, but that doesn’t mean I don’t still love a good pair! With winter fast approaching, it’s time to start thinking about what goes on your feet. So I’ve put together my list of 4 styles of winter boots every woman should own to help you make smart decisions when investing in a new pair this year.

Autumn is by far, my favourite season of the year! It’s not too hot, nor too cold so you basically get the best of both worlds. Sunshine all day and nights where you can cozy up under a warm and fluffy blankie and watch Netflix. It’s the best!

October in South Africa means one thing… So long winter and hello summer! With that, my brain is almost 100% tuned into warmer weather and all I can think about is fun, sun, sand and sea! So my wishlist this month, is all about that and the start of summer…

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!

After this weekend’s chilly blast, I thought today would be the perfect time to talk about one of my most coveted pieces – the cashmere sweater… The king of all knits! I popped into ZARA the other day and couldn’t believe my eyes when I spotted the most perfect cashmere sweater ever! Spoiler alert… It is a heck of a pricey item and I am still weighing my options, so thought I’d share a few local finds if you too are looking to beat the cold in style with a little cashmere this season.

Excitement levels are on the rise as H&M opens it’s second store in South Africa this week! Cape Town may have been the first to experience H&M on South African soil, but Johannesburg fashionistas will be in for a treat, as the preview opening of the Sandton store (tonight), will release the much anticipated H&M X Balmaination Designer Collaboration. Swoon! Prices for this designer collection are not as bad as I had expected! Sure they ain’t cheap either, but I mean BALMAIN anything at those prices is a score! Hopefully I’ll fall in love with at least one of these beauts tonight and make it mine! But which one? I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now! Top With Braided Embroidery (R1,499), Silk Satin Suit Trousers (R1, 199), Braided Strappy Sandals (R2,299). Beaded Velvet Blouse – R4, 999 Velvet Dress with Braiding (R2,999).

Can I get a woo hoo and yeea-haa!? H&M is finally open in South Africa, and in case you live under a rock, the very first local store opened it’s doors last weekend in Cape Town at the V&A Waterfront. But don’t worry Jozi, H&M has already secured it’s spot at Sandon City (next to Accessorize on the upper level) and it will be open next month on the 7th November. Further stores are planned in the Autumn of 2016 at Alberton’s Mall of the South, Clearwater Mall and the Mall of Africa. I always used to get my H&M fix when I went to Greece to visit the familia, but sadly, I haven’t been to Greece in years (well two years actually) so I’ve really missed my little H&M annual splurge. But hey, good things come to those who wait, and now I can splurge all the friggin time as H&M will be right at my door – well almost, (it’s closer than Greece!) Price wise, I must say that I am impressed! I had a quick browse around the local South African website (YAY for that alone) and I am happy to say that H&M South Africa’s prices are spot on! You can pick up cute summer dresses…

For once in my life, I saw something worn by one of the blogs I follow, and could actually drive to H&M (coz you know, I was in Greece) and get it! I was so amped! Now all that’s left, is to lose the 3 (blooming, bladdy, friggin) kilos I gained eating Gyro’s in Greece and I then I can rock my new baby! My Inspiration

We at StyleScoop are huge fans of the entire Beckham clan! Victoria’s got the style and David, well, David’s got the god bod! So any opportunity to drool over his perfect footballer physique and we’re in!   The tongue-in-cheek campaign follows David being chased through his neighborhood streets of Beverly Hills in nothing but skimpy boxer briefs. The campaign debuts worldwide on the 6th February 2013. And just in case you’re wondering what Beckham’s briefs look like, here’s a little peek at the David Beckham for H&M range Image Credits: hm.com
