Warm..ish Sunday

The Jo'burg sun is slowly making its presence felt; this Sunday I enjoyed the rare warmth with this cropped ensemble paired with this really cool jacket from Kangol that I adore.

A lot of things we do need to make sense, they need to be logical. A man on the street with reasonable knowledge of the topic should be able to understand what you have written, what you are serving for dinner needs to follow some sort of acceptable taste pattern, the report you submit to your boss must be in a legible sequence. Fashion is one of the few areas where its ok if people don't get it. When asked what your thought process was, you can say I had no clear thought process..and expect no material judgement to follow. Fashion is the one place where you can have peanut butter and cheese..so to speak and not be called crazy.

The Stylista launch and Luminance Pop up shop

Dear fabulous readers, I have been MIA for a little bit. I promise its been for a good course. I am learning to sew,make patterns and other general dress making skills. I have always wanted to make my own clothes and I am so excited to finally be learning. I'll update you on later posts on my progress.

For now I want to chat about the fabulous happenings of yesterday night. You may have heard about the new South African street style website called The Stylista. Last night The Stylista was being officially launched; fashionisitas everywhere can now register for an account and start sharing their style. I was one of the bloggers who were asked to be part of the The Stylista demo website, it is so exciting to now see the site fully fledged and working beautifully.  All the beautiful stylish people were at the opening together with some of my favorite bloggers.

After the Stylista launch, It was off to the Luminance pop up store in Hyde Park corner. Grazia SA was holding a readers shopping experience at the pop up store. Daniella went through the trends and the shoppers received a 20% discount on all shoes and selected clothing. Cocktails, macaroons, sushi and a brief love affair with a Alexander McQueen gold scull umbrella later I was ready to call it a Tuesday night.

What I wore: I wore my current favorite shirt from Jo Borkett; someone at work told me I look great in my Madiba shirt..lol..Not exactly what I was going for..I paired the eeeerrrrh ..Madiba shirt with a high waist skirt and a jacket with shades of tweed and leather.

ASHLEY MADEKWE STYLE ENVY

My latest style envy is Ashley Madekwe. She is the over ambitious, also cunning assistant to the Graystons on the show Revenge.
This Brit It girl's style makes me weep from green both on and off screen. From skater skirts, dressed up jeans to amazzziiiiiiiing prints, her style is effortless and oh so chic.

To see more of her style, do visit her blog.

Urban photo shoot

My very talented friend Portia asked me to part of her Urban photo shoot last week. Her concept was very exciting; she wanted to showcase the excitement and buzzy attitude of the city. And what better way to capture that energy than by showcasing the amazing graffiti art work that feels more like part of the bridges and buildings than the bricks that support the structures.

We has so much fun in downtown Jozi, she made feel so comfortable in-front of the camera and I think we got some good photos. Watch this space for more photos to come; we did three different gorgeous locations.

This lady has a bright future in photography; when she has pictures on Elle I can say I was her first. To see more of Posh's amazing talent, visit her a blog Picture Splendour
