Totally Note Worthy – Shopping at MrP Online
While I was away I got the cutest package from the stylish peeps over at Mr Price, to launch their new online shopping store. Now you’ve probably already heard about Mr P’s brand new online store and seen all the “Hot Fashion Delivered” packages popping up all over the social networks, so this is probably nothing new to you. While everyone’s already told you how awesome the site is, and it is awesome, I thought I’d shop the store and let you know how the whole experience goes instead! Now, let me start by saying that I have a love-hate relationship with Mr…
View PostTREND REPORT: Riding Style
Next month, my hometown of Durban plays host to The Vodacom Durban July; one of Durban’s and SA Fashion’s hottest events! With all the hype leading to raceday, combined with a new found love for my riding boots (which I finally found after years of searching), this month’s Trend Report is all about being a stylish Equestrian. Now, as much as I love this style of dressing, I wouldn’t recommend wearing a riding-style outfit to The July – even though it would make more sense to trot around the grass laden race track in comfy flats and a jacket, instead of your sheer,…

Rock Royalty
Loving this shade of Shellac I’m currently wearing. It’s from their new winter collection, a gorgeous deep purple shade called Rock Royalty… I’m totally addicted to Shellac! I have been wearing it on my nails almost non-stop since I had my first Shellac application in January.

View PostProject: New from @MrPriceFashion
We’re loving this hot, new range from Mr Price! PROJECT Limited Editions is a fun, range inspired by bold, fun-loving colours. It’s a gorgeous mix of tribal influences, playful cut outs and sexy African style! This range hit stores a few days ago, so you’d better snap it up quickly because we all know how the cool stuff flies out of Mr P! STYLESCOOP FAVES Totally cute shift dress (R69.99), and I absolutely love these drapey shorts (R79.99) worn with this super cute, cut-out twisted-back vest (R59.99) ! So Cool! What do you guys think?
View PostTotally Fab Finds @MrPriceFashion
On a recent trip to Mr Price, on the hunt for a gorgeous skirt I saw at Glam Camp, I was impressed not only at how much cool stuff they had, but how much cool stuff I bought! I’ve been looking for a leopard print scarf for the longest time! All the ones I’ve seen haven’t had an “authentic” print, so when I came across this baby, I snapped it up straight away! It’s a long scarf in a soft, sheer fabric, that you can fold double to create a snood. Perfect for the transition into Autumn! I also found…
View PostFront Row with Amber Jones
Living in Durban and married to the love of her life, with a bulldog named Dennis and a Boston Terrier named Frank, Amber Jones is a fashion icon, designer and the quirky, retro-cool chick behind the blog, Thunder in Our Hearts. Amber lives and breathes fashion with an insanely obsessive addiction to magazines. If she was’nt in fashion, Amber reckons she’d probably have been a florist in another life. In this week’s Front Row With series we chat with Amber on her second line (launched recently in Mr Price), find out what defines style and what you need if you…
View PostBig City Brights
I’m so excited for summer and all the gorgeous brights! I shopped a little at Gateway this weekend, actually a lot, but picked up some really nice bright sparks… Cute tee’s, bangles, flats and belts without breaking the bank! Take a look… First up, this gorgeous brightly coloured striped tee from Mr Price! Believe it! I am very impressed with the selection Mr Price has these days, and this gorgeous tee is just one of my many purchases from Mr Price. I love it because it’s over-sized so looks casual cool paired with skinny jeans and some cute flats. I…
View PostTREND REPORT: Stacking Bangles, Creating an Arm Party
I love accessories and my fave ones are bangles and bracelets. They are so much fun and a trend I’ve really started embracing this season is stacking up bangles, creating delightful displays of arm candy. To show you guys how to “stack ’em up”, I hauled my own collection of bangles and created some stacking effects. You can do this with just about any type of bangles, and although I’ve used a lot of gold tones (as it looks better on my olive skin), you can use the same stacking technique with silver, black, coloured or even natural/ wooden bangles.…
View PostThe 031Collection – Putting Durban Back on The Fashion Map
So last night I headed out to watch the 031Collection, a fantastical fashion event right here in my hometown, Durban. What an amazing event, so well organised, totally styled and very inspiring. As an ex Jo’burger, I’m proud to say I’m a Durbanite these days! I remember when Durban used to be T-H-E fashion mecca in South Africa, at least, when I lived in Gauteng, I thought so. Anyway, big up to Mr Price for putting Durban back on the fashion map. If this event is anything to go by, Cape Town and Joburg darlings, you’ve got some serious competition.…
