It's breakfast tiiime :)*

Breakfast has tO be my favOurite meal Of the day! It literally sets the tOne fOr the rest my day... well that and how I feel abOut the Outfit that I'm wearing.
 
I'm gOing thrOugh a phase where I put either cinnamOn Or cayenne pepper [Or bOth, if the meal allows] On whatever I'm eating. I always used tO question hOw people cOuld substitute cinnamOn fOr sugar, but I totally get it nOw! Well, I am One Of those peOple, sO it Only makes sense that I dO.
 
In terms Of breakfast cereal, I've always been a big fan Of bran flakes [that's if I'm nOt having cOcO pOps *facepalm*], I think they taste really gOod and keep yOu full fOreveeeever!
 
On the Other hand, I've never really been intO Oatmeal, I used tO think it was tOtally disgusting; until I realised that I can have it raw with a bit Of yOghurt and a handful Of nuts, my faves being almOnds and cashews.
 
Okay, sO tOday's breakfast is a half Oatmeal and half bran flakes, sOme Greek yOghurt, half a banana and a sprinkle Of cinnamOn.
 
 
YUM!!

Check up On it*

This Outfit is literally 'sOmething Old, sOmething new, sOmething borrowed, nOthing blue.'!
 
I gOt the tartan plaid sweater and the Prince of Wales check pants frOm my mum's closet. I'm not a big fan of pumps, but I seem tO have a thing fOr red shOes, with tassels and maybe a buckle, sO I fOund myself with this pair. I "bOrrOwed" the rOund shades frOm my sister, after I'd lOst mine :(.
 
The guys at the Office like this Outfit, they say it makes me lOok a bit mOre mature. Pfff whatever that means!

Alonso Mateo*

I've never made the fact that I want bOy children a secret, I just think they're sO much mOre fun tO dress up and [quite frankly] play with!
 
I've been seeing pOsts abOut this bOy's style arOund the blOggersphere and I've tried tO ignore it but, it must be said: Alonso Mateo dresses better than many grown men I've seen and knOw. He is always On trend, if nOt ahead Of the pack and just carries himself with such swag! Ohmigizzle! This kid is freshness persOnified.
 
What I absOlutely die fOr abOut his style is that it's versatile; he dOesn't just rOck One lOok, he has a number Of lOoks that he perfects! And fOr me, that is a definitiOn Of true style.
 
Luisa Fernanda Espinosa [his mOm] is bOss!! I'm literally like: Mason whO!!??
 



the bOy even takes selfies!!






dO yOu nOt die!!??



Alonso & his ever sO chic mum!

And I will say this, my kid has nO chOice but tO be this fresh! The baby daddy is just gOnna have tO deal.
 


Pleats & bOws*

 
 sO, yesterday, I decided that since I didn't really like the quality Of pics that are taken frOm my ipad I'd bOrrOw the services Of a mOre gifted photographer, with better equipment. In my ignorance, I was alsO On sOme: "it doesn't really matter what kinda stuff he usually shOots, a gOod phOtO is a gOod phOto!". Little did I knOw!! This guy's fOcus was all Over the place, he was getting mOre Of the landscape in than my actual Outfit! I ended up nOt being able tO use a single pic!
 
With my tail between my legs and ipad in hand, I returned tO Sindi [Our receptionist] and asked her tO take snaps Of tOday's Outfit. Between my limited experience as a mOdel [and wack-ass pOses] and her amateur photography, we did what we cOuld and this might be the best pic Of the lOt:
 

 
What I like abOut this get up is that unlike many Of my lOoks, it's pretty clean and there isn't much happening except the bOw and the pleats. The bag is extremely feminine with the frills and all; and my hOusemate [Junior] says I lOok like a "really gOod girl" ahahah.

HellO*

I've been meaning tO dO mOre Outfit pOsts Of myself, and I figured that since tOday is the first Monday Of the mOnth it wOuld be the perfect day tO start!
 
The weather in Joburg is gOing through a mild case Of cOnfusiOn, I think; it's June and apparently the cOldest mOnth Of the year, yet the sun is shining bright! I'm really nOt cOmplaining, but I feel a bit incOnvenienced since I've been slOwly packing away my summery gear!
 
AmOng Other fashiOn Obstacles that I'm currently facing [Hahah], I'm gOing thrOugh a situatiOn where I'm transistiOning frOm a mOre casual way Of dressing tO a fOrmal One. The problem here is that I am having the greatest struggle letting gO Of my student gear, hey! I'm really  nOt a 'cOurt shOes & pencil skirts' kinda girl [although I dO have my days], I just like my mOre relaxed lOoks, but I will dO what I must.
 


 
tOday's Outfit illustrates my fOrmal vs causal struggle the best, but I feel like I struck a gOod balance, thOugh! I'm wearing a skirt I gOt frOm my mama, a really casual [actually-cropped-but-I-pulled-it-dOwn-and-tucked-into-my-stOckings] shirt, these cOol design stOckings and just abOut my favOurite bOoties that I bOught a day befOre I mOved here frOm Cape Town. AlsO, this bag that I'm carrying has to be my favOurite at the mOment; I'll dO anOther pOst where I show it prOperly, I dOn't think these pics are dOing it justice.
