On Display





To say I have a lot of jewellery is a massive understatement. After years of hearing my screams from the bedroom whilst getting ready "Damnit - these necklaces are ALL MESSED UP", or "I cant find my favourite earrings" or my favourite: "Where is that bloody bracelet?!" - my boyfriend decided to make me the perfect contraption. Got it just in time for Christmas. How beaut?!

Want one too? Choose your own background. Boyfriend is willing to make them - for a price of course. Email me for more info. Durban area only unfortunately.

Year of the Sequin

2009 was the year of the sequin. I recently bought this sequin jacket (perfect for New Years) and sequined tank to add to my sequin collection.





Hopefully sequins will continue their reign into 2010!

PS I didnt make this - but someone else did

Tired of trying to:
a) find a spot on the beach
b) fight the crowd at the mall
c) think of interesting things to do this holiday?

Try making something! Found this via PS I made this















If only....


....this were true....after all the chocolates, wine, champers, turkey etc etc that Ive been eating this festive season....


Brittanica



Have become slightly obsessed with Brittanica of late - especially after picking up a sequined Union Jack clutch in Dubai recently.

Keeping cool this summer


Found this fan on a sourcing trip not so long ago - makes a great little gift. Costs R15 each

Topshop Christmas Cards


I did a blog post a while ago about personalising your Christmas gifts and wrapping - here is even MORE inspiration to do something a little different. Here is FIFI LAPIN-designed Christmas cards for Topshop - get them printed on cardboard and attach it your prezzies with fancy ribbon - et voila - a thoughtful (and fashion-forward) gift :)

Savannah Miller - Blog




I am a fan of twenty8twelve, Sienna and Savannah Miller's fashion label (I also am in love with Kate Moss for Topshop - but that's a whole other blog post!!) Here is Savannah Miller's blog - a great read especially if you want a little behind-the-scenes on the brand.


The many hairstyles of Dannii Minogue...

She might not be a big star - but her sister sure is. Dannii Minogue is one of the judges on X-Factor and one thing I do admire about her is her chameleon-like approach to hairstyling. Here I was thinking that there werent many options for short styles - but Ive been proven wrong!

Stylish Tots

How stylish are these little people? I love their poses as well - they seem to have been born with it!

Here's hoping I have stylish kids too one day!
