South Africa

Loving… Giggle & Co {Baby Brand 1}

May 30, 2018

I have to be honest – I feel like the current trends in baby & kids decor are getting a bit stale.  So many of the shops, markets and social media feeds are filled with the same cookie-cutter design ideas – there’s A LOT of chevron, woodland creatures and tee-pee’s!  Don’t get me wrong, many…

Loving… a guide to South African maternity wear

March 16, 2018

I think one of the most frustrating things about being pregnant in South Africa is the lack of maternity clothing options.  I remember being so excited to buy my first “preggy” top when I was pregnant with Evan, but this was quickly overshadowed by a disappointment in the lack of availability and variety in local…

Loving… choosing a prenatal vitamin {not really}

February 24, 2018

When you fall pregnant, you’re suddenly inundated with choices that you have to make.  Big decisions, like where you want to deliver your baby, who’s going to be your healthcare provider, what are you going to name your child?  And these big decisions are mixed with millions of other decisions that you need to make…

Loving… a DIY Vertical Garden {Courtyard make-over part 2}

January 5, 2018

I wrote about the start of our our courtyard make-over a little while ago – since then I’ve been looking for a way to incorporate more greenery into this space.  That was easier said than done, particularly since our courtyard is very hot and dry, and Cape Town is in the midst of one of…

Loving…Make Spring Better {Prominent Paints part 1}

October 25, 2017

Does anyone else really struggle with making bold design choices?  I’ve wanted to paint a feature wall in our living area for ages, but I’ve really battled with committing to a plan!  Which is silly, considering that we could realistically paint over any disasters.  So, when Prominent Paints contacted me a little while ago about…

Loving… A weekend in Robertson {Gorgeous Getaway}

May 14, 2017

We recently decided to take advantage of one of the long weekends to go away with little Evan and our parents.  Initially we couldn’t decide on where to go, but eventually we settled on the Robertson wine valley.  We’d only driven through the region on our way to the Garden Route, so I was keen to…

Loving… Stowe & So {gorgeous gifts}

April 24, 2017

I love finding local online stores that have original and reasonable items. I came across Stowe & So towards the end of last year, and I immediately added some of their items to my Christmas wishlist!  I love my little piggy cereal bowl, and my “deskpet” calendar brightens up my desk at work.  I also…

Loving…Finding my Perfect Pair {fun with Superbalist}

February 20, 2017

I love Valentine’s Day. Not because of the cheesy cards and boxes of chocolates in the shops, but because it’s the day that I met my husband.  It’s the day that he literally pulled my name out of a hat and knocked on my res room door.   But fast forward thirteen years, and here we…
