Reaching Goals and Staying Motivated

This week I have been feeling very motivated in terms of my blog and university work. (Yes I do realise it’s only Wednesday. Don’t burst my bubble!) But when it comes to feeling overwhelmed and letting the stresses of work demands get to me, I am very easily controlled by my negative thoughts and uneasy […]
My Mixture of April Favourites
I have been loving so many things this month! A mixture of beauty and fashion goodies, because the winter is coming and I’m preparing for cold mornings and dry skin! You will probably have seen a lot of these things in other posts, but I thought I’d put them all together and talk a bit […]
Enjoying Easter & Embracing Loved Ones

Happy Easter everyone! To those who celebrate and to those who don’t – however you’ve spent your day, I hope it’s been filled with good food and all your loved ones. We had such a beautiful brunch-turned-into-proper-lunch at our house with some special people. The table was decorated so amazingly, with the pastel-coloured tablecloth and […]
My Go-To Clothing Item – Always!
Photo’s taken by the extremely talented Gienna-Maree BaroneĀ As the cold weather slowly begins to roll in, and the fires begin to burn, my trusty jeans make their way out of my cupboard. Basically every single day. I really love jeans – I always have and I have no doubt that I always will. […]
Why Your Style Has Nothing to do with Anybody Else

Photo’s by incredible Gienna Barone. “Style is very personal. It has nothing to do with fashion. Fashion is over quickly. Style is forever.” – Ralph Lauren Mr. Lauren (that sounds really strange!) made quite a bit of sense when he made this quote. It’s a little hard to wrap your head around at first though. […]
A Long Weekend in the Mother City!
The mother city, the tourist grabber, the hub of all things film and television, not to mention breathtaking in every direction – Cape Town, it’s no wonder you’re one of the most loved places on earth! A couple of weeks ago I went down for a quick weekend, to celebrate a very special friend’s 21st […]
One of My Favourite Breakfast Spots

Living in Joburg has its definite pros and cons – like all places do of course. But a big pro that must be handed to this city is its huge selection of places to eat. Ranging from quaint, cosy, romantic settings, to the grander, more commercial restaurants that can be found all over. I particularly […]
Healthy Habits on a Monday

Oh beloved Monday, why do you come so fast? I’m usually pretty good at getting up in the mornings, I generally only hit the snooze button once. This, for a self-confessed morning hater, is quite an achievement – if I do say so myself! Strangely enough though, I think for most people a good start […]
My Simple Bedroom Decor

Home decor was never really something I was particularly interested in until I came across the wonderful world of Pinterest. I think that was the case for us all! But seeing as I don’t have my own home to spend hours and hours thinking about what luscious piece of furniture will go where, I have […]
A Little Bit of Make-up, A Little Bit of Life
One of my worst feelings in the world is lacking inspiration and just feeling ‘bleh’ about almost everything! When this happens to me, I stress even more because I hate not having new posts up on my blog, but also because it’s one of my favourite things to do. And if I’m lost on what […]
