Studying Outfit

I usually go for comfort when studying, style tends to take a back seat but with a maxi dress one can feel good and not too restricted but it still looks better then living in pjama pants ;)

Don't worry there is just water in there! Promise

This incredible Lindt hamper arrived from Glossybox on Friday, so have been working my way profusely through it!

Winter Wants

Even though the past few weeks have been pleasantly sunny and I have yet to pack my summer stuff away I do find myself looking forward to all of the stylish outfits that one parades throughout the colder months.

Winter is wonderful for layering and looking effortlessly chic, these are some must haves I am in the process of getting to complete my wintery style.

Sissy Boy 8th Wonder of the World jeans in black, super strechy and comfortable. They feel like jeggings but are proper jeans!

A comfy and practical snood, scarves are great but snoods are once again the way to go this season. The best part is you don't have to worry about them blowing away or unwrapping, which tends to happen often with Cape Town's crazy wind.

A pair of cute monochrome colour blocked heels, yes colour blocking will step away from overt brights for a while...

Well on the topic of shoes, this list wouldn't be complete without boots. Except these are of a different kind, yes Hunter boots.

Swoon at the Regent style perfect for girls with thinner legs, I look awful in their orignal style but these fit perfectly!

To add a flash of colour, a bright blazer is perfect. I adore blazers for when it gets a bit chillier, they can complete a look.

And finally to add a bit of bohemian to ones wardrobe, a faux fur gilet is a must have!

Incredible Eye Wear

Mullers is an optometrist with a rich South African history. Now I know when one hears optometrist it doesn't exactly conjure up images of style and fashion but that is what is so great about Mullers they have all the styles to keep you looking like a fabulous fashionista!

With the very latest trends in eye wear from leading international fashion brands at the Milan trade show last month, showed a swing back to vintage and retro designs in strong colours, particularly black and tortoiseshell.

This design from Oakley is one of my favourites
Jupiter Squared R1425  
Some other designs from Oakley
Pampered R1100
Dispatch 2 R1450

Wine Tasting The Waterford Way

Yesterday I went on a wonderfully unique wine-tasting at Waterford Estate..a wine safari. You explore the vineyards in a safari viewing Land Rover and get to stop off along the way and taste some of their wines. It was the perfect Autumn day and so I took plenty of pics but have narrowed them down to these. I highly recommend this experience as it was a very informative and interesting way to learn about wines.
The exquisite entrance

We were handed a glass of bubbly then lead through the cellar and the "Wine Cathedral", my kind of church ;)
Then got into the Land Rover and set off for our safari...
A cute dog and an even cuter guide!
We then headed back to enjoy an absolutely divine wine and chocolate pairing.
