Today I’m over-the-moon to share Oliver’s big boy Lego room reveal. Hooray. You might know that I’ve been planning & dreaming about his room for a long long time now. But then life happens & things take longer than anticipated. Planning a room make-over for a six-year old is also not so super easy mostly […] Read more…
Lately, Oliver, who is now six, loves to play little games like ‘what is your favourite’ & ‘what if’ or he cracks silly jokes that make absolutely no sense or have no punch line at all. His jokes all end with ‘Wakka Wakka’ followed by giggles. Don’t ask me. I also don’t know. Haha. At […] Read more…
Hey there friend. The gorgeous warm days here in Joburg at the moment have me all fired up to style our home with fresh Spring ideas. The very first area that I want to share with you is our entranceway (or front door or entrance area). Not really sure what to call it. The bottom line […] Read more…
I have a confession: I am in love. Hopelessly so. Her name is Gigi. Gigi from Cape Town. The truth is I am in love with George too. And not any George. The fabulous, Gorgeous George. Before you phone my husband & plan an intervention, you should know this: he is in on the whole […] Read more…
If you have not been to Spier Wine Estate recently, then I suggest you change that. My friend Christelle & I paid an end-of-winter visit to Spier recently & we had such fun! The weather was just perfect – it could well have been spring already. We kick-started the morning with coffee at Vadas Smokehouse […] Read more…
From a very young age, I’ve simply loved entertaining. I remember dinners cooked for my high school friends. A makeshift dinner table (aka the plank from my bed) when my friend Gina & I hosted in our first ‘real’ dinner party out of varsity. As newlyweds, we once had about 30 people for soup & […] Read more…
Oh yay. Today we are visiting the Linden apartment of Karen Venter. With loads of interesting shops & eateries – including GONK, Tonic gin bar & The Linden Co-Op, Brian Lara, as well as the very first The Whippet coffee shop – the old suburb of Linden in Joburg has become a really trendy area […] Read more…
Hey friend. The weekend is upon us & so I’ve lined up ten epic web links for you. Enjoy! (Update: sadly the link to this Greyton cottage below is no longer available) Quick, make this Naartjie (aka Mandarin) centrepiece before they go out of season. Why you should throw casual dinner parties. I’m The Pineapple […] Read more…
If you’re a regular around here, then you’ll know how much I love a party & a yummy piece of cake, so I’m super excited to say Hip Hip Hooray & Happy 25th South African Birthday to Dermalogica. Bring on the cake! 🙂 On a slightly more serious note though: Dermalogica has always been on […] Read more…
Our room (more specifically our bed) is one of my favourite spaces in our home! It is sunny & comfortable & absolutely perfect for naps. And I loooove a nap. But recently I felt a bit uninspired with the room. Living in a rented space has lots of pro’s, but it can easily feel like your […] Read more…
