Home For the Holidays

Do you decorate your home for the holidays? I’m pretty basic, in that I usually just put up a tree, maybe a wreath on the front door and that’s about it. I know some people go all out with decor, but I’m more on the simplistic side. This season however, I’ve seen a ton of cute festive home-wear that’s inspired me to maybe take it up a notch. I’m not talking about your classic, overly shiny Christmas decor, but rather something that’s festive, without being too OTT. Something like…

Christmas Just Ain’t Christmas without Woolies

The countdown to the festive season has begun! YIKES! If you haven’t started your festive shopping, then you better get cracking! Nobody wants to spend their year end leave trawling around shopping centres hunting down their holiday find. I know that’s the last place I want to be! I’d rather be sipping on cocktails by the pool, catching a tan. After all, isn’t that what Christmas in South Africa is all about?

A Shoulder to Try On

How cute is the off shoulder trend for summer? My favourite way to wear this trend is opting for a flowy, oversized off the shoulder top worn with cute denim cut offs or skinny jeans. It’s such a great, easy breezy look for warmer weather. Wear it two ways… Check out some of my fave in store picks, right now on how to nail this trend, whether you want to expose bare shoulders, or just show some skin…

Midnight Blooms

It may be winter – but I have Spring In My Step! I’ll admit, I’m not usually one to wear running shoes or sneakers outside of the gym – but these New Balance Midnight Blooms are so beautiful, so comfy and so darn cute, they are the perfect casual kicks that don’t look overly sporty! I actually love them! The Fresh Foam Zante soles makes them feel like I’m walking on air and let’s be honest – who could complain about looking down and seeing a gorgeous tropical print at their feet?

Bandana!

To me, a scarf is the simplest accessory that you can add to just about any look to take it up a notch. Right now I have a bit of a fixation with Bandana scarves, which are literally popping up everywhere!

A Festive Feast with Woolies

The festive season has crept up on us once again! Are you ready? Have you planned and planned for months? Have you got everything you need? Don’t stress if you haven’t gone into major planning mode for Christmas, because Woolies has your back! Back in August, I attended their Christmas media day, and let me just tell you, that besides the fab gifting options, the food is out of this world!!! Serve it up in your most stylish dinnerware, and your guests will think you’re a rock star, gourmet cook! We were treated to a delightful menu of fabulous food cooked up, prepared and presented by the talented Woolies food team… For starters, I had the Norwegian Salmon, cured and marinated in lemon and pink peppercorn. Salmon and Trout canape with gold spray and salmon and prawn terrine with salmon row. Is your tummy rumbling yet? Mine sure is! For mains I had the free range leg of lamb with cranberry sauce, served with ready to eat de-boned gammon, (smoked in beach wood) and served with toppings of crispy bacon, finished with delicious veggies and potatoes. Oh yum! And for dessert, which is always my favourite part of the meal,…

Summer’s Hottest Nude Strappy Sandals

Ti’s the season to get excited about sandals… Are you excited? I’ve always been a huge fan of nude sandals. They just look so amazing with everything, and really elongate your legs. I mean who could say no to that? This season’s most coveted sandal is the gladiator. Ladies, if you’re looking for a great pair, don’t worry, I’ve found it, plus some other strappy sandals to get you excited… When it comes to sandals, I particularly like to find leather options. For starters, they are so much kinder on your feet especially in the heat, and they wear so much better than synthetic shoes. And don’t think becuase it’s leather it’s automatically expensive. All four options I’ve found online are all under R1000 buckaroos – and I promise you, you’ll wear them season after season! From Top: Leather Multi Strap Sandals – Woolworths (R399) Leather “Azalea” Sandals – Country Road (R899) Leather “Carly” Gladiator Sandals – Witchery (R999) Leather “Lotti” Sandals – Dune London (R899,95) Which pair has your name written all over it?
