Beauty. Fashion. My preoccupations.
I started writing about my adventure in Paris last year and after the first month, I didn’t pick up my laptop again. I’ve spent the last week wondering why that was, and I came to one conclusion: When I moved to Paris I decided to just live. 2018 fed my soul in so many ways.
So, I have officially been in Paris for 18 days and have loved every minute of it! It honestly feels like i have been here for a lot longer than 2.5 weeks and I think that’s all thanks to me settling into a routine pretty quickly since arriving and having already made friends. Read more.
Focussing on myself and my “me-time” is something I’ve been working on for ages but haven’t really managed to get right. So last week, after the most severe anxiety attack I have ever experienced…
Last year I set out to read a book a month as part of my goals I wrote down in my bullet journal. Well, it turns out it was a little too ambitious and I sadly didn’t reach that target. What did I manage to finish reading?
I had planned on finishing up another post tonight, but decided this one was more important. Dove has launched a very important and relevant campaign called #NoLikesNeeded. I can relate to it 100% because I myself have often taken a photo and ended up not posting it because I have worried that I don’t look […]

As summer arrives and the temperatures start heating up, I start hunting for a good deo that will keep me cool and fresh for pretty much the whole day. Why do I keep changing my deos every summer you may be asking yourself? Well, after using a deo for a while, my body stops working together […]
Immediately when I see “matte” in the name of a lipstick I expect it to end up drying my lips out and leave them feeling tight. Don’t get me wrong, I really like matte lipsticks, but I’ve tried a number or different brands’ matte lipsticks and am yet to find the perfect one that doesn’t make me reach for a […]
I can’t believe it’s almost a year ago since I did the Avon Justine iThemba Walkathon with my mom, brother and best friend. If you are wondering why we were pouting in the photo with our pink lips, we were doing that in support of breaking a world record for the most people who applied lipstick at […]
If you follow me on social you’ll know that I adopted the most awesome kitten earlier this year. Jack has transformed my life and I can’t imagine life without him. Just as I like to make sure that I eat healthy food that is good for me, so too do I want the same for […]
