I haven’t done a trend post in a while. But I am loving this trend so much that I just had to write a blog post. The envelope clutch for me personally, revived the clutch bag. I was getting bored with the clutch bags I saw around until this trend manifested. I already own one, but would like to add another one to my collection. I find that the envelope clutch adds an interesting and chic edge to an outfit. I browsed a bit and found envelope clutches from the South African shops or shops that ship to South Africa:

1. SoGood-Candy Punch Out Detail Envelope Clutch From Zando for R199.
2. Metal Bar Detail Envelope Clutch From ASOS for £18.
3. Slot Through Envelope Clutch from ASOS for £20.
4. Red Leather Envelope Clutch Bag From Crave Leather for R300.
5. Blue Dappy Women’s Envelope Clutch Bag from Daniel Footwear for £99.99.
6. Envelope Clutch – Black from Alexandre Kate for R400.

Hi guys! I trust you had a great weekend!

I’m just trying to familiarize myself with dressing for colder weather again. I am loving snoods. I bought this one at Pick n Pay on a way to a braai. How convenient! Also love this novelty print tunic I bought at Mr P. Ah, the joys of clothing!

Yep, I jumped on the Instagram bandwagon and I’m quite liking it. I was eagerly awaiting the release of the Android version of the app and now it feels like I have a new camera!

Rueben and I had a super chilled holiday last weekend in Citrusdal. Some of you might know I love that little place! The air just smells better over there. Here are some pics I took using Instagram. I didn’t even whip out the SLR! (Lazy, I know). My instagram handle is EmbracingStyle (no surprises there!).

Have a great long weekend! I am off on Monday and I hope you are too!

So Summer disappeared very fast. I am enjoying wearing boots and knitwear again. How about you?

Emma asked me how I got my hair so curly in my previous post so I thought I’d write a blog post about it. My hair stayed curly for days! So I highly recommend trying this out.

It was easy:

1. I washed my hair
2. Blow dried it quickly
3. Applied GHD Sea Spray
4. Made tight curls with the Babyliss Pro 180 Curling tong
5. Ran my fingers through the curls to seperate them

And done! Was quite shocked at how long these curls lasted.
