Look Post : Winter Look And Styling My Combat Boots

 Hey lovelies,

How you doing? We've really been having winter weather in Cape Town recently, chills rain and all and I think I'm all ready for a change of season and now in the mood for some warmer weather until summer comes again then I want winter, but...  I'm all for winter fashion and I wish I had more energy to capture more winter looks.

As long promised I've always wanted to put some winter content up and finally I got myself to to put a look together and actually post it! A winter outfit look post at least before winter is over, I took the opportunity when we decided to take my little brothers to the park , my sister had her camera with and I was down for a little photoshoot as the setting was perfect.

About the look : 

I've always had this idea to style my boot like this I just feel it completely elevate the whole outfit .I went for a very laid back look - my baggy track pants, keeping it basic with a black jersey, quilted mid lengthy jacket(which is very trendy atm too) and of course my favourite shoe for the season my combat boot to give it the extra edge and to complete the outfit , i also added some black sunnies and a black beanie not forgetting my cute sling bag. Are you not loving this DUPE from Ackermans that looks very similar to the country road one.

Do you love my winter look and how I styled my boots ? Is it something you would wear? 

What I'm wearing:

Sunnies : Cotton On

Jacket : Choice Clothing

Track pants : Cotton On

Shoes: Soviet

Bag : Ackermans

Stay Fabulous

Look Post : Styling Cargo Pants

 Hi Beauties,

Omw things just got hectic lately and I was wanting to post this ages ago but I didn't get any chance to sit down but I couldn't be more happier to post this as I did not do a Look Post in AGES I mean AGES !

Our topic today is CARGO PANTS , I must say its definitely one of my favorite favorite trends at the moment and glad it has made a comeback and gained quite a lot of popularity. I really love that our legs get to feel comfy while looking stylish, don't mind me I still love a good skinny pants but I'm not complaining, I love how laidback the loose fit is and the plus side is that you can style it up but I prefer styling it laidback as I did here. 

My look- I went with an oversized graphic T with a nice pop of colour along with a stone colour cargo pants and white chunky sneakers paired along with some vintage looking sunglasses I got in a magazine once upon a time.

Hope you loved my look , please comment below if you did. How would you style your cargo pants ? Let me know .

Have a wonderful day.

Outfit Details 

T- Shirt - Mr Price

Pants - Shein

Some Exciting News and Styling The Lorine Sunglasses by AMINA Glasses

 Hi Beauties 

Firstly I hope everyone is doing great and coping with the pandemic its been rough and ohkay but we dealing hey.. what can we do. All I'm glad for is that I have a post for you because I miss gathering up a post 😊.

I have some exciting news.. well to me its kind of a proud moment , not that big news but I'm proud to say that I'm an Ambassador for AMINA Sunglasses - Curated Eyewear for Warrior Women.

I was super stoked when I was chosen to be part of their selection and think that their brand stands for something more powerful than just eyewear. Their message behind their brand is to celebrate or remind Women that we are STRONG , INDEPENDENT and that we are MIGHTY,we walk tall and take pleasure in the beauty of the world. 

Well lets get to the point of this post - They asked me to pick one of their eyewear pieces and I had to style them , super exciting as I love sunglasses. I chose the Lorine Pair because I think having a good black pair of sunglasses is always a must in your collection.

I've taken these pictures a while back and just did not have the motivation or time to post. While Cape Town is still experiencing weather of all seasons I thought it would still be appropriate to post this look which a winter look styling my Lorine's.     

About this look :

I decided to style my lorine sunglasses with a look that is comfortable with some edge and a pop of soft colour. Because Teddy coats was huge winter I had an excuse to put on mine which I actually got as a gift last year. I decided because the Teddy Coat was Baby pink I used it to elevate the rest of the look by wearing my black pleather pants, black converse , black lorine's and a beige jersey to soften the look. I also tied my hair in a pony with soft curls to bring the look together. 

If you loved how I styled my outfit please leave a comment down below I would appreciate it and mostly I hope you loved the post.

Also if you do purchase a pair of sunglasses from Amina please tag me and them I would love to see.

Adventuring in my Sapmoks

Hi , its been a minute and I missed the feeling of typing out a blog post.

 I'm back introducing yet another cool local brand that was kind enough to be on board to partner with me in exchange to bring you a fab content and be part of the Local Series on The Fabulosity Diary. 

SAPMOK is an all adventure brand with a unique product offering of hand-crafted shoes and products tailored to give and authentic feel and real life experience. 

I decided to reach out to the brand because my family and I are always adventuring around and thought it would be a perfect fit and put my perfect hand-crafted Sapmok shoes to the test.

We headed to Cape Point for the day and thought it was great opportunity to rock my 'vellies' as South Africans call it. I was super excited as I had my whole outfit planned in my head and I must say I was super happy how my Sapmoks complimented the outfit and added character. Its something rather different because as you know I would probably wear my sneakers but loved that I have something new to add to my looks and I wanted a pair for ages.

I styled my Sapmoks with a white shirt , chino skinny a printed headband to tie the look together and a backpack. My look was very simple and gave me the feel of something I might wear on safari haha.

 I must say when we arrived at Cape Point (my first time there) I wasn't to sure if these would be the most comfortable shoes since it being the first time being on my feet(you know that first time having to wear a shoe and its not comfortable and need to be stretched etc.)  but I was totally wrong and the brand 100% stands for what it say that it is made for adventure. and made for an explorer

Why I love my Sapmoks:

• Comfortable
• Made for walking , I was super impressed as there was loads of walking to do.
• Stylish - I see myself rocking my sapmoks into my wardrobe because its very versatile and will share more looks on my instagram feed,make sure you following me.
• Durable - I also know that this will last me years and years to come and will stick with me for future adventures.

I'm excited to take my Sapmoks on more adventures and suggest that if you an adventurer you should get a pair too. They honestly made for adventure. I might even hike with it and let you know my final final verdict - What do you think??

but for now my final thoughts on the hand-crafted shoe is that it is definitely quality and made to perfection.

Thank you Sapmok for gifting me and giving me the chance to represent your brand on my adventures.

Go ahead and check out Sapmok -  https://sapmok.com/ , they have an awesome selection of colours and other styles available that I too have my eye on.

How To Style Your Red Boots

Hi Beauties

Styling red boots can be tricky for some and I don't think one will purchase it that easily, but when I saw this particular pair which was also available in very basic colours I don''t know what persuaded me to take the red. I was just drawn to it and thought to myself I can make it work.

Posting about Red Boots have been on my mind far too long , funny thing is.. it's super trendy this year and have spotted in several stores. I've had this pair 3 years and never wore it because I was a bit too skeptical to wear them and thought it would be the perfect time to turn this into a post and showcase how I wore my Red Booties.

In my look below I played it very safe in my opinion keeping it simple with a stripe tee (which you can never go wrong with) along a basic blue jean, a cap all in similar colour tone and earrings with a pop of red to tie the look together but also think I wanted to make the boots the centre of attention.

                                         

So if you a bit skeptical like I was start matching your boots with the items above before you match with prints or more bold clothing. I'm very keen to experiment matching my boots with more prints and other fashion pieces although red boots are super statement enough already I think it can create a fun look.

On the verge of buying some red boots? Here are a few fashion items you can pair with your red boots to get you started:

• All denim 
• White shirt/tee with jean
• All Black  

but... if you are not scared of clashing colours and prints with your red boots go ahead because I think it will anyway bring your whole look together along with your great style. 

Did you like how I styled my Red Boots ? Let me know in the comment section below or comment on my social media posts or even tag me on twitter I would love to see.

Style Tips : Transition From Winter to Spring

I know some of you might find it difficult to put your spring wardrobe together after the winter season and because we not in full spring mode yet because the weather in Cape Town can be quite confusing.

Here are some pieces that I think will get you from Winter to Spring. 

Light Jerseys

Because its not completely spring and the chill in the air can become cold, it is good to have about three jerseys that are versatile to mix in your wardrobe.

Pumps

As we slowly packing those boots away we slowly start bring out pumps as the days can get warmer. It's the perfect transitional piece because your feet is still semi covered.

Sandals

I'm going crazy seeing all the beautiful sandals in stores at the moment from simple ones to bold ones , it's always nice to have a new sandal to kick off the summer season. 

Denim Jacket

I really did not make a mistake to get a denim jacket its become such a statement piece I'm wearing it all seasons #fact. I would say if you don't have one yet please girllll... do me a favour get yourself one and you will thank me (haha).

Stripe T-shirt/Sweater

I'm so happy that I stocked a few stripe sweaters now, for me stripes seem to add to the spring look and has made it rounds to the season over and over again, it is also a statement piece for the wardrobe which I think you can also wear all year round.

White Sneakers

Guys if you don't know me I cannot survive without white sneakers currently my All Stars are in a mess but luckly I have my Adidas to fill in which is btw very comfy , anyway if you not keen on wearing bold sneakers always opt for white because they are safe and go with anything.

Bold Jewelry 

There are sooo much trending jewelry pieces at the moment , I would say play around with different styles and see what style suits you best. I'm loving tassels at the moment.

About this look:

My look below is very simple and what I prefer and a very basic #OOTD , it was quit chilly although it seems like the sun is out and about. I,m totally love my witchery jersey I also received as a gift its not a heavy weight jersey paired along with my denim jean and jacket and sunnies obviously , soo this is my basic transitional outfit.

   

I did a similar post last year on other pieces I mentioned to get you from winter to spring (Click here).

I hope you enjoyed this post and I helped you in a way because i know it can be tricky to change up your wardrobe , feel free to comment below and let me know if you also find it tricky to change your wardrobe from winter to spring.

Jersey : Witchery

Spontaneous Adventures and Winter Layers

Hello  😊

You might be thinking that my post Title might totally be off or not too fitting for my blog but hey sometimes spontaneous adventures can turn into a awesome photo shoot yaaassssss ! 

The initial plan for the day was to stalk the maze runner cast in town (gosh I'm such a fan of Dylan O'brien #fangirl alert #sorrynotsorry) since my sister had to be picked up from uni in Town I thought I'd take the chance. It was super cold , overcast and a bit of rain here and there but I was willing to take the chance of catching a glimpse of the set or simply hoping to bump into anyone one of the cast members (I'm that cray). 

Anyway I'm sure you don't want to hear me fan-girl all through this post soo... let me get to the point. 

Stalking mission totally FAILED ,  my sister then messaged me to bring the camera along and I did so, she then nagged dad to take us up to Signal Hill but eventually landed up at Devils Peak , Table Mountain. Yep ..we love those random adventures.

About this look:

My aim was to experiment with a layered look and I think it turned out to fit perfectly with the weather. I can't explain how obsessed I am with my Denim Jacket from The Fix I can pair it with most of my outfits because it tends to go with everything. I'm a huge fan of beanies in winter its one accessory that you will always see me rocking in the winter season. Lastly don't you love blanket scarves ? Ladies its defz a must have! if you don't have one please head on over to the shops and get you one you won't regret it so warm the bigger the better.

Winter Scarf/ Beanie : Practical Gifts

Dress : Woolworths

Hi Lovelies ..

Oh gosh its been ages since I last posted DECEMBER last whaaaat!

You have no idea of how much I missed this little space of mine , I hope you missed me too.

I cannot believe half the year is gone already and I haven't posted one post yet(but here I am yay!) , to be honest I didn't have time to put content together along with feeling uninspired here and there. I keep promising myself I would post more but keep disappointing myself, so bare with me if you are a regular reader of my blog I'm super sorry. I'm trying my best to get some content together , so if you maybe have a particular fashion topic or if you would like a style post or whatever is related to my blog please feel free to email or comment below what you would like to see more on the blog :) . I've decided I'm not going to put pressure on myself if I post I post if I don't I don't because at the end of the day I would love to share great content that you love reading and content I'm happy with and hopefully I will become regular because I love putting looks together, fashion thoughts and sharing what I love with you guys.

oh and I begun a little exciting project to get some what creative or to see if I still have the creative spark in me you can check it out on Instagram (Chokers And Statements) where I will create some Fashion Jewelry pieces/ statements which I will be selling.. soo lets see where my little hobby takes me. If there is one thing you should know about me is that I love hustling , try something sell something haha.. the thing is you never know. Aspiring Entrepreneur?? Jack of all trades?? mmm     

BTW I hope 2017 is treating you well so far.

About this look:

I've been loving stripe tops lately I don't know why but if I could own them in different colours that would be awesome. I used my stripe top to break the rest of my outfit and a figure belt to enhance my sleeveless coat even more as most of my outfit was all black toned . I then added my pink bag accessory and hat to complete the look.

What is your favorite clothing item or accessory to break a plain outfit?

Hat : Cotton On

Top and Jegging : PNP Clothing

Bag : H&M

Bag Accessory : Foschini

Pop Of Spring

Hey lovelies 

Cape Town is slowly showing signs of warmer weather but Sunday was just lovely, it was all sunshine in the Mother City and the day could not be wasted at home. It was a well spent afternoon having late lunch with the family in Hout Bay catching up and enjoying the scenery.

I'm so excited for the upcoming season as we see lots of lighter colour clothing in stores that just scream spring/summer which is super exciting. I seriously need a shopping spree, I'm already eyeing so many items in store from quirky shoes to beautiful dresses.

Having trouble transitioning from winter to spring? Here are some must haves just to get you started:

• White Jean
• Versitile Sandle / Shoe or Sneaker 
• White Shirt 
• Maxi Dress
• Sunglasses

then... obviously there are the trending items such as the off the shoulder tops , pajama like pants with the funky patterns which you can buy in between if its your style or if you have a little extra cash to splurge.

In my look below I'm wearing my super comfy white jegging , a white top and layered it with a super lightweight peach jersey paired with my new favourite tan sandle (did you notice? I'm not wearing sneakers lol) and a backpack to complete the look along with a bold statement to break the outfit a bit and duuhh cannot leave those sunnies behind. It was refreshing dressing in lighter colours and weird wearing sandles after a long long time...yay! bring on those summer days. 

Hope you enjoyed this post , thanks for reading and Have a lovely Tuesday :) 

What I'm Wearing 

Jersey : Woolworths

Jegging : PNP Clothing

Shoes : Foschini

Bag : The Fix

Sunnies : Edgars

White Top : Practical Gifts (old)

Stay Fabulous
