Lalesso SS 2013

Dear fashion Gods, i dnt think I've asked much from you, so i dnt think it would be unreasonable to ask that you bless me with this WHOLE collection this summer. ALL OF IT!! I am soo impressed with how this amazing South African brand( for those who don't know) has gone from humble beginnings, selling skirts made from Kenyan fabric to this! This is on another level of innovation, commitment and just goes to show how far passion, inspiration and wanting to make a difference in what you do instead of wanting to just making a living, can get u.. I have no words, i couldn't even pick my favourite, hence i uploaded almost the whole lookbook. There is also a fashion film of this collection shot in Llandudno beach in Cape Town, but i couldn't upload it. Ja i know I'm a let down, but you can check it out on their facebook page.

Aaaa-ah Jealousy

Rising Star

 Today is the day a  designer becomes a star. All the best to the finalists! And for those who are going...enjoy!

Vashtie wears what she wants

Nothing is more attractive than someone who is comfortable with who they are and what they represent. Vashtie definitely is that person who doesn't conform and sticks to what works for her in terms of her style of coarse. For those who don't know who she is....get a life. Jokes, shes  a director, designer and artist who has done music videos for the likes of Kendrick Lemar , Solange Knowles, Kanye West and Kid Cudi. She was also in the country last year for the STR CRD event which will be taking place soon in jobo. Dig her friendly demeanour and of course her style.

Its a BLOUSE thang: Elle style report

Individualism and true style is in how one interprets trends to suit them, whether it be print, floral, lace, polka dots, monochrome or something inspired by another decade ( 90's or 80's).Nothing beats the thrill of finding a garment in a version/style/design that best represents you and your preferred interpretation of a trend. At the moment I'm in love with vintage blouses, Í particularly appreciate the different fits, textures, and prints they come in. This collage is inspired by those different visions we have as individuals and how true style is timeless and lives through our fashion treasures, those we have found, and are yet to find and cherish.

Blue Skies

blue skies by noxnox featuring platform shoes

I feel like flatform shoes are heaven sent especially for me coz for along time I've been avoiding heels not because there is anything wrong with them but the fact that i have to make sure that there are levels of alcohol in my system for me to last in them is not the way to go . Only the strong will continue..but mina I'm signing out of the stiletto game thank you very much, i like being able to feel my toes when i get home. So my flatform game is up and my collection has began,  in the passed year I've managed to cop some flatform sandals, brogues, espadrilles and now all i need is a pair of sneakers to pair up with a cute dress like I've done here. Moral of the story, if you find something that works for you...... WORK IT!
