So I may be a little late to hop onto the whole boyfriend jean train, but last weekend I went out and bought myself a pair. I’m so used to wearing skinny jeans that I’ve almost forgotten what it’s like to wear normal pants. When I first put them on I felt like I was almost transported back to 1998, I mean they’re not even that baggy, so maybe I’m being a bit dramatic, but anyway heeee. They’re super comfy and I can eat as many of these Boston Cream Cakes as I like and not have to undo any buttons. Happiness.
Hello everyone and happy Monday, today I’m starting a new #lucky_wins giveaway with the lovely ladies from Mungo & Jemima, which I’m so excited to share with you guys.
Last week I got to go on a bit of a shop via their brand new, very cool online store. Their newly designed site has been beautifully curated and so there are lots of super pretty pieces to choose from. I had a look around and then settled on this sweet Selfi Horizon Dress, because I really loved the confetti-like print on top and the light pink bottom half, it reminded me of a glass of ice cold pink lemonade.
And so just like that I went shopping on their online store, and now so can you guys….
All you have to do to enter and win is:
Jane Sews Spring Capsule is now available to buy online, all you have to do is click here, choose, then enter your credit card details and you’re a-for-away. There are such soft, pretty pieces to choose from, when I was going through them now I felt like I should be on holiday somewhere warm and flipping amazing. Holiday soon. Yes please.
Their new line of leather shoes and accessories are also listed online, there are some really beautiful designs, so good luck choosing just one pair/thing.
Last year I put together a local and an international gift list for you guys, to hopefully make shopping at Christmas time a little easier. This year I thought I would do a couple more ‘online shopping’ lists. One for the ladies, one for the gents.
So to start it off, here is one for the manly men in your house. All links for these items are under each photo, they are off a few international online stores and some local ones too, so happy shopping!
Yesterday we drove through to the Pretoria Botanical Gardens to watch our friends Shortstraw play. We packed a blanket and some treats and off we went. It was so nice to be out in the sun, it was like a proper Summer’s day yesterday. We lazed around a bit, we danced a bit, we ate a lot and then we drove home. Perfect Sunday.
I took my new hat out for a spin too. I’m liking these felt head toppers, I’m glad they’re easier to find in the shops these days.
*I don’t know about you guys, but I find it so hard to find something to do on a Sunday, if any of you have any secret places/activities that you want to share with us, please do.
Yesterday I went into Topshop to have a quick look around. I had to go to Sandton to buy birthday and house warming presents for friends and I couldn’t leave without buying a Angie present for me.
I found 2 nice things. I bought this awesome pair of tan leather sandals, that sure are similar to another pair I have but those won’t last forever and I really liked these. I saw them on Pinterest a while back so I was happy to see them hanging up in Topshop.
It’s weird when you covert something online and you look it up and you think oh man I can’t buy these shoes because for one how will I know if they fit me or not, or what if they make me look like a circus elephant (not sure how this makes sense, but anyway). So I was happy I got to try them on in real life before I bought them.
I also bought this very sweet black felt hat. I don’t really wear hats, in fact I think it’s safe to say that I never wear hats, but I thought I woud give this little guy a try.
I was inspired by some recents images I pinned to one of my boards. All links to the photos below can be found there.
