Here are a few pictures of outfits I would love to own one day When I’m Big. Nicole Warne from Gary Pepper Vintage has a style which incorporates preppy and chic. I love the circle skirt feel in the first outfit, and the bags and court shoes are absolute winners for me. The sweat topContinue reading “Threads”

Every few months, the pop world reshuffles its playlists, deletes some songs, and adds some new artists. That is what is expected of “bubblegum music”- once all the songs have been played to death and the chewy sweet sounds no longer have any flavour, it’s time for something new. Usually, pop artists are young girlsContinue reading “Pop. Because Everyone Needs a Little Sugar ‘n’ Sunshine”

It’s Fashion Week season, and while I may not be as clued up about the designers, the front row guests and the after parties as I could be, I do follow some bloggers who do. I came across this picture of a clutch designed to look like an old-school transistor radio in one of theContinue reading “Kate Spade”

“I Don’t Care” is the latest single from the charming and talented Elle Varner. The video was released earlier this week, and it definitely cements her status as an RnB sensation: The parallel storylines show the way two couples’ love has to endure prejudice and ignorance. Parents don’t understand, and society judges, but Elle wantsContinue reading “New Release: I Don’t Care”

About a month ago, AKA released a new single called “Jealousy”.Days before it was even first played on radio, he and his team had people hyped up on Twitter and had fans going crazy waiting to hear it. I’m sure on that day, people who never listen to the radio left their couches and headedContinue reading “Mona Phansi! (Jealous Down)”

Once in a while I hear a song that makes me want to go straight to a club and dance like my reputation doesn’t matter.That’s what the girls in this Far East Movement video are doing, and the small voice of the Party Girl in me is saying “this is your jam…” Of course, thatContinue reading “Dirty Bass”

This guy’s burger was so good, he had to sing about it: Apparently, this video was edited using Songify, which is an android application that turns speech into music. It has already spawned quite a few covers, and it really did lift my spirits a little. I could watch it over and over again (andContinue reading “Oh My Dayum, I’m Singing about My Lunch!”

 “Formed December 2005, Desmond & The Tutus plays an  infectiously awesome blend of Rock ‘n Roll, Indie, Kwela,Pop  and Genius. You will have fun or else you will die. Not  because we’re going to get all offended and poke your eyes  out with sharp sticks or anything but rather because you’ll be  trampled to aContinue reading “Desmond and The Tutus”

I never know that one of these “national weeks” is coming up, unless I read about it on a blog or hear about it on radio. I mean, when was the last time anyone you know consulted an actual (paper) calendar about anything?Besides, these types of days only appear on some obscure government website, soContinue reading “National Book Week”

Cleaning is not just about housework, it’s also about changing a few things about one’s daily life. With the temperatures getting higher, hemlines moving further and further up past the knees, and the revival of the weekend traditions of braais and ice-cream happening all around, I decided it was time to finally do something aboutContinue reading “Spring Cleaning”
