we love ~ wishlists

Excitement! I am going to Thailand in less than a month for 3 weeks, and I am so unbelievably excited!
Thailand is known not only for its beautiful islands but also for its affordable clothes. Many a shop that have opened up in Cape Town have started by buying beautiful dresses from Thailand.

anyway, the point of this current post is not to make anyone jealous, but to show you my wish list I am putting together for my shopping spree I have planned for our last 3 days in Bangkok....


Desperately want to add a coral jumpsuit to my wardrobe!

lots and lots of summer dresses will be purchased

for this summer season - a vintage-style black 1-piece swimsuit .... dying for one!

one or two or 3 pairs of gorgeous heels

flowy dresses for those summery nights out on the town (love the pleats in this one)

a pair of high-waisted cream shorts, they look so chic on summer days especially with tribal print or black flowy tops

What Shall I Wear Today? - a |retro|spective

This is another series of photos I took at the park. Yet again I am in leopard - my newest addition from YDE. And again - my favourite go-to velvet high-waisted shorts, also from YDE.
I love this shirt - its so comfortable and flowy and perfect for the crazy hot weather we're having :)












loving the summery vibes :)

What Shall I Wear Today? - velvet and chiffon

I have just gotten back from a wonderful run on the promenade in Sea Point, and it truly is another beautiful summers-day-in-winter in Cape Town today. This being said - of course the day called for shorts :) I paired my favourite pair of high-waisted velvet navy shorts with a cute chiffon blouse in navy and white. I then added a tan belt to compliment my tan moccasins (I hardly ever wear them, but they are so comfortable, I definitely need to get more use out of them).
I'm sure by now you all know I am absolutely in love with navy blue, it's just such an easy colour to wear, day or night, and looks sooo nice with tan accessories :)

What Shall I Wear Today? - Midnight Velvet

Yesterday I bought the most amazing high-waisted navy velvet shirts from YDE. Oh my gosh, I am absolutely in love! I wasn't even planning on buying anything, let alone a pair of high-waisted shorts as its not generally a style that I wear, but when I saw them I just could not resist :)
I was actually looking for a blazer for winter, but I had no such luck in finding one, but... small price to pay for these darlings - what do you think?








I've got a really cute outfit planned for tomorrow (yay weekend), as I've got a very important seminar to attend - for me to potentially travel to Florida for 6 months, so I need to dress to impress! Keep your fingers crossed for me ladies :)
