As you can see from the below image, my nail polish collection is fairly large (and these are only the ones on my counter!) – I am an absolute addict and love having painted nails. This weekend I realised about half an hour before my birthday party that my nails looked horrendous so decided to quickly do […]
My little (well actually rather big) obsession with stationery spreads quite far from foiled pencils and bakers twine to personalised moleskins and petersham ribbons. I am slightly embarrassed to admit that I have one six shelf cupboard dedicated to this. This cupboard has jars of quirky pegs, boxes of multi-coloured boards, tins of stamps and […]
With my holiday coming up pretty soon I have obviously been making endless lists of the things I would like to buy on my trip, and it seems like my suitcase might be bursting at the seams with coffee table books. Last year this is all I asked for for my birthday, so got the […]
I was going to keep this post for spring/summer time as the thought of getting into a bikini makes me want to cry right now, but these bikini’s from Peaches Swimwear are too beautiful to wait. Cait and Alex, the girls behind Peaches Swimwear, launched their bikini’s in South Africa earlier this year and have […]
A few weeks back I had the pleasure of attending the launch of a brand spanking new fragrance from Aramis and Tommy Hilfiger. The launch was done so beautifully – it’s events like this that I actually can’t believe how cool my ‘job’ is at times. I always love intimate launches when us beauty gals […]
Sally Hansen Diamond Strength No-Chip Nail Varnish Sally Hansen’s all-new Diamond strength varnishes (R69.95) have got me pretty excited of late. I used to use these varnishes back in my school days, as I’m sure you all remember their famous ‘perfect French mani kits’ with the half moon stickers et al! I found these brushes […]
Today is my birthday, so thought I would share my little wishlist. I normally love unwrapping gifts on the day but this year I thought I would rather get most of my gifts in London and Paris as I am going to be there in 3 months time {yay} and need to stock up on […]
I had to share this. I actually think I need about twenty homes one day, one for every ‘look’ I like. In my first home that I am in now I have gone for an overload of vintage florals and once-off pieces I have collected over time – from my vintage globe, to my grannies […]
I spent this past weekend in beautiful Arniston with a bunch of friends. Through severe lack of geography skills, we ended up taking 5.5 hours to get there instead of 2. Not a word of a lie. So basically we could have gone to Plett for the weekend, but whatevs. It was so much fun […]
I went off having red nails for a while, but recently have started liking it again. When done properly {without staining the skin around the nails and being too streaky} it looks great. This is my Jessica Winter Berries polish {still some of my best polish} and stays on beautifully. {o and the Red Velvet […]
