Hi guys! So, this is what I wore on Saturday to my friend’s baby shower. She is due in October and I can’t wait to meet her son! The theme of the shower was nautical so I just had to wear something blue.

On another note, I am so excited about being in the October issue of Fair Lady. The feature contains a little bit about me and 10 things I like. There is also a little Q&A on their website. I’m really loving Fair Lady especially their “30 Outfits for 30 Days” feature. It really inspires me to get creative with the clothing I already own.

One last thing, if you didn’t enter my current giveaway yet you can do so here.

I’m the type of person who can find joy in the little things. This little shoe rack made me so happy. It’s silly I know, but now I never have to search for my favourite shoes. They used to be in a heap in my cupboard which made finding shoes difficult in the morning when you’re in a hurry. I bought the shoe rack on Bid Or Buy and even though I hurt myself when nstalling it (Rueben said I must have been bad with Lego as a child) I think I should buy another one so the rest of my shoes can be easy to find as well.

In other news, the very sweet Sam has interviewed me over here and I know this is delayed, but Mr Price In the Fashion Loop featured me here. It’s such an honour for me to be on these sites! Have a awesome weekend people.

Aqeelah has branched off from Thrift Cape Town to start her own venture, Lone Folk. I am happy to see how vintage is growing in Cape Town. Even though thrifting can be fun, we don’t always have the time. Nowadays you can just add shops on Facebook and you’ll know where to find well-preserved affordable vintage. Thanks Lone Folk.

Here are some more of my favourite stands at the Design Indaba. Now that I am looking at these pics I am getting serious buyer’s regret. I wish I had bought those brogues and that vintage necklace and that clock…

Anomali
For unique vintage treasures.

Woodheads
For these gorgeous made from supplies all found at Woodheads.

Silver Spoon
For pretty frocks and clothing.

Kooky
For quirky and exciting perspex jewellery.

Doreen Southwood
For gorgeous dresses and these amazing brogues!

In short, South African designers have a lot to offer. We should be very proud.

Rueben and I went to the Design Indaba Expo at the Cape Town Convention Centre yesterday. I definitely enjoyed it. It was inspiration galore under one roof. I’ve seen so many South African brands online, but never got around to going to the shops where their goods are sold. The Indaba was a brilliant way of having all these brands under one roof. I’d definitely recommend it. I am just happy I didn’t spend my whole month’s salary!

Rueben took some snaps of my favourite stands and I thought I’d show them to you in two posts since there are so many pics! All of these shops sell online if not by online shop then via email.

REcreate
For re-purposed furniture. I must visit this shop opposite The Biscuit Mill soon!

Tjerrie
For pretty pumps and boots.

Trinket
For gorgeous brooches with so many awesome designs that I struggled to choose from.

Chapel
For awesome backpacks to carry all your stuff.

Genevieve Motley
