LOOK POST | GREY MAXI

Photo Credit: Nur

This is probably one of the last look posts that I'm putting out there as a "SINGLE" Woman! 

This look I wore for an afternoon lunch with Nur. I wanted the pics to be taken before we ate cause my make-up was still fresh and i didn't want any 'melting moments' cause yesterday's heat was kinda intense. We then went to our local park and snapped a few shots while people strolled through the park. Is it only me? Or does that make you feel a little awkward? ! 

I love maxi dresses, especially one as fitted as this one. I also love crop tops. But would not dare to wear it just as is. Therefore, I thought that these two seemingly different pieces could help oneanother out (I love this high slit by the way!)

I hope you have an amazing week and happy Monday!

Love,

LOOK POST | SIMPLE ,

 Hey Guys & Girls! Firstly, I would like to take this opportunity to wish everybody a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR. While most bloggers are re-capping on the last years' happenings, Myself and Nur are stopping on the side of random roads to take pictures! 

And that's basically where the following look post begun. I entitled this look 'SIMPLE' due to the fact that that is exactly what this look is- SIMPLE. With that being said, it is also how I'd like to start off my year with look posts which embody simplicity (hopefully). 

The sweatshirt-which reminds me A LOT of Riri's style- I bought at Cotton On. The boots which you can view HERE

is an item which I can't go without. It is for this reason that I am so thankful to Cape Town for its wet weather we've been having lately. 

I have a feeling that these Utility Boot Cats and the Timberland will be on SUPER TREND for next Autumn/Winter (Well, I'm hoping it is). The rest of the look is a combination of undone hair and burgundy lips, My fav! 

What do you think about taking random pics on sides of roads? 

 

Have a stunning Friday and weekend <3

xoxo

How to Turban Wrap

As I promised in my previous post : I will show you ladies how to wrap a beautiful turban- especially now that the holy month of Ramadaan is upon us- without it falling off from your head! Hopefully this post will assist you in tying up those loose ends? 

STEP 1-3:

* Tie your hair up in a neat pony tail or bun. 

* Use a flower clip to give your turban wrap a little more volume 

* Clip the flower clip on your pony tail or bun 

STEP 3-10 : 

* Use a plain scarf that you would like to use for under your main scarf 

* Double-Fold your scarf in front if you find that your scarf is a little long 

* Twist your scarf at the back and tie around your flower clip

* Tuck in all the loose ends of the scarf if your scarf is a fringe scarf like mine. 

STEP 10-18 :

*Get hold of your second scarf that you would like to show (a little bigger and longer than your first one) 

* Repeat steps 3-10 

Useful tips to remember while doing the turban wrap : 

1. Rectangle scarves are the best to use when turban wrapping 

2. The texture of your scarf should preferably be cotton to avoid  your scarf from slipping off (Irritating) 

3. The BIGGER and LONGER the scarf, the better. 

4. Make sure your make-up is flawless as this look pushes all your hair back and gives plenty of emphasis on your facial features. 

5. Personalize your turban look by adding accessories to your scarf like pretty pins. 

Hope you find these tips useful 

Love
