Artist : RAHM(eik)



NYC, visual artist, Parsons The New School for Design and immensely talented. I was drawn to these two images in particular because of how they celebrate the African woman in her most natural state. I love the vibrant use of colour and brush technique, although I am not an expert I can genuinely appreciate his works of art. It's great seeing young people from all over the globe fearlessly do what they are passionate about.

Styling : I LOVE Holidays


Hello,
I figured I have not done one of these in a while and because I am about quality over quantity I thought I should create a set which is relevant to my life right now and that is Summer in South Africa. This comes with the need to be comfortable but look stylish and cool. When the sun is out, I still like to wear black and who does not love black? Here are my picks of some essential if you are needing some outfit inspiration for that beach party on the 26th or that sunset pool party you and your friends are planning, you can never go wrong with a good outfit and great company :)

MOSAERT by Stromae





As you have noticed, I'm pretty obsessed with creatives, especially those who thrive in more than one field of creativity. Belgian musician Stromae, who is one of the most interesting musicians in my opinion has created his second capsule collection which is just as great as his music. Mosaert is in the same vein as my music. I do it to express my vision, to learn and, above all, to have fun,” says Paul Van Haver, alias Stromae. While the venture may seem unexpected, Stromae has always shown a strongpoint of view in fashion, which is evident in his music videos. His outfits are colourful, vivid and electrifying. So in essence we should have seen this coming right? I love the patterns in his collection and this new one especially features clothing that both men and women can wear. I also appreciate the African wax influence in the patterns that are used, I am sure the fashion world will be watching this fascinating creative very closely.

Lookpost : Holla Summer

Hello,
It has been a while right? I apologize for my silence but I have been wrapping things up with school and trying to get internships/jobs whilst I plan my new exciting adventure in Cape Town. I have been doing a little bit of shopping and hope to show you some of my finds. Of course with me, comfort is always key and I like to keep it simple but edgy. I also love prints and I'm a big fan of the Mr. Price range created by local designer Anisa Mpungwe. I hope you enjoy the look, I am also embracing my natural hair a lot more now, giving the braids a break.
