Keeping it clean

This home has been sitting on my desktop for a while and I just can’t get enough of it, so thought I would share. It’s how I envisage my apartment if ever I move overseas again (and have some extra cash, of course). I just love the simplicity and quirky touches and particularly the light […]

Weekend snaps

These are a few snap shots from my very busy weekend. I had a dear friend of mine staying with me from Ireland which meant way too much eating and drinking. Another dear friend who I am a bridesmaid for is here from Zim so we have a girls dinner at my house tonight, I […]

Shopping list

Believe it or not, I now have a note on my iPhone titled ‘London shopping’. Ridiculous really, but I promise you it comes in handy. I used to do it when I lived in London and when browsing UK/US blogs, watching vlog video’s or looking at UK magazines you come across cool little things all […]

Pretty + Rustic

This is a look I love. Pretty being everything vintage, floral, girly and just plain pretty, and then rustic being everything with a bit of age to it (that’s not the best description, but anyhoo). I am seriously not a fan of the good ol’ white wash and rustic frames (which I guess is deemed […]

SOil for Mother’s Day

If, like me, you have yet to get your Mum a Mother’s Day gift – I have the perfect idea for you!  I received this gift set from SOil a while back and have been meaning to let you all know about it. Their packaging is really spa-like and so is the scent of the […]

Africology Purifying Cleansing Gel

I was really excited to try this range out as I had heard so many good things. I love the packaging and I think the scents are beautiful, however, I am not so sold on the ‘do they actually do the job’ part. I have only tried the Purifying Cleansing Gel (so am not speaking […]

Feature wall {at home}

I have recently been adding bits and bobs to my house. I always find it’s these little bits that turn a house into a home. I’m big on the whole home thing (being a Cancerian and all), plus with my family being from Natal my flat is ‘home’, so needs to be a place I […]

Lip Rescue

Dreaded dry lips… it’s one of those things that seems to literally happen over-night! These are my top three products at the moment, and yes, I do use all three at any given time as they all have their strengths for different times of the day/occasions. Elizabeth Arden’s 8 Hour lip treatment – I have […]

Win with SPRUCE

Meet the lovely Katy who has recently opened up a brand spanking new salon, SPRUCE, in Morningside, Durban. I have already planned my appointment here in July before my best friend’s wedding – it just looks too amazing. SPRUCE offers the latest technologies and professional know-how in skin, body and nail treatments. Owner and therapist, […]

Decorex in pictures {2012}

These are a few photos from my visit to Decorex this year. I thought the show was done brilliantly and had some beautiful and really inspiring stands, I wish I could have stayed longer! With my weekend back in Natal, it meant that I had to go straight after work on Thursday which was lovely […]
