The Lash and Beauty Room

As you know I have been getting lash entension for a while now and just adore them – they make getting ready in the morning ridiculously quick. If you actually want to know, I timed my make up routine and it took just over 3.5 minutes. Yip, that’s how quick. I recently grew my extensions out as […]

Getting my tan on…

I firmly believe that one way of feeling summery and ready to slip into all your summer forcks is by getting a nice tan and, if like me, you work full time and only get to the beach when Cape Town actually decides to have nice, non-windy weather on a weekend, then fake tan is […]

It’s a hot summer with Woolies

I can’t get enough of this time of year and it seems to come and go so quickly so I am making every effort to soak up the Christmas festivities and enjoy the summer sun. Woolies have the most gorgeous selection of goodies to choose from for Christmas (see previous post here) and there summer clothing is […]

Ciate Advent Calendar

I am well and truly into this Christmas spirit. So much so that I have bought the latest Michael Buble Christmas CD and have not stopped playing it since. I had last year’s one but for some reason felt the new one (with 4 new songs) was worth every penny. In the Christmas spirit, Ciate […]

REN Clarifying Toner

I am a toner fanatic. I don’t know why, but from a young age I have never been without a toner. I think it may be the fact that I don’t ever feel squeaky clean until I have done my usual cleanse and finished off with toner on a cotton pad. I am a big fan of […]

{Win} with Black Betty jewellery

Sisters, Klaudia and Kristin Weixelbaumer have joined forces as Black Betty to bring a unique range of signature jewellery and design pieces to South Africa. I love the simplicity of these pieces and the fact that they truly are diverse and can be worn with so many different outfits. The great thing about this giveaway is that […]

Christmas Gift-Wrap {House&Leisure}

The ladies at House& Leisure asked me to do a feature on Christmas Gift wrap. You can see the original post here. These are the different gift wraps with the exact items you will need and where I got them from. These were all rather rushed, but such an easy way of making a gift […]

Brenaissance {Cafe Blanc de Noir}

I had the pleasure of attending a friends wine farm in Stellenbosch a few weekends back called Brenaissance. The event that was happening was for the opening of their beautiful restaurant, Cafe Blanc de Noir, which is in the most breathtaking setting. We did some wine tasting of their new wines (my favourite is Lady H […]

Christmas Gift Guide {for girls}

Disclaimer: none of these products have been sent to me so haven’t tried any yet (thence them being on my Christmas wishlist). This little Christmas guide would work with any females, so should really read ‘for women’. I have been e-mailed a few times over the past month by male readers (yes, there are a […]

The Spindel

I got given a Spindel about a month ago and, living in a Cape Town CBD apartment, space is rather precious so I was very excited to be getting an eco-friendly answer to a tumble dryer that could be stored in a cupboard when I’m not using it – win! I reckon that through word […]
