OUTFIT | Minimale

MR. PRICE T-shirt / ZARA skort / RAGE boots / SWATCH watch / TOPSHOP  chain necklace / MIU MIU sunnies

I wore this outfit to a lunch with some friends in Sandton a couple of days ago. It may look like it was warm out in these photos, but trust me, it was pretty damn chilly in the city! Autumn weather is tricky because it looks great from inside, until you step out and get knocked over by a gust of biting wind. Why would you then wear shorts, I hear you ask... Well, for starters, I knew I'd be indoors, and secondly, I felt a neeeeeed to wear these specific shorts, seeing as I've only worn them about once or twice before.

This was the first time I wore my booties out, and I'm sort of crazy about them. I love the fact that they're maroon and not black for once - if you know me at all, you'd know that my shoe collection is literally black and black. I think this will be quite a hot colour this Autumn/Winter. Even just while walking around Topshop and Zara before our lunch, this was a pretty popular colour choice, especially among the shoes.

Have a lovely weekend guys. Mine will be spent consoling myself over the fact that I have to go back to school on Monday, and trying to sort out all my books and stuff... (help!) Also, going back to school unfortunately means that I won't be posting as often as I have been over the last few weeks. Please bare with me - trying to fit in high school and blogging is a very real struggle. I'll do my best to post at least once a week though. I cannot wait to be done with high school!

OUTFIT | Streaky Stripes

GIFTED shirt / COTTON ON jeans / TOPSHOP sneakers / ALDO bracelet / CARTIER (mom's) watch

I got back from my Girl's Only Easter getaway in the midlands (with mom, mom's BFF and my sisters) on Monday night, so my dad booked a date with us yesterday morning for breakfast at Tashas Rosebank - their Eggs Benedict (substitute spinach for asparagus) and chai lattes are all I need in this life. Your steps to happiness: go there, try it out, thank me later.

I wore my trusty skinny jeans from Cotton On which are beyond comfortable and so stretchy and have been worn far too much as a result. It was really nice out, so I wore this sleeveless striped shirt which was a gift from said mom's BFF. The bag is a Céline mini luggage tote bag. Yup, that's right. I finally bagged one of these babies (eeeek!) I got this last week as a major surprise from my parents. I swear, I had tears in my eyes. My mom's got great taste because I would have chosen a black one had I been given the choice, but this two tone is everything and more. I'm so so happy!

I hope you all had a great Easter weekend, and enjoyed eating your weight in all kinds of chocolatey goodness. According to the scale this morning, I'm definitely suffering the consequences, but instead of moaning about it to you all, let me get my butt to the gym!

xo,
