When I visited Joburg last year, I came across this really cute little stand at the Arts on Main Market. Guard the Vintage has an array of beautiful clothing from the past rearing their head back into todays fashion trends. I bought the most beautiful white shirt with tassel like lace and pearly buttons, it's such a statement piece and people always comment when I wear it.
Guard the Vintage can source items for you but are also constantly refreshing their stock.
You can check out there facebook or online shop, but you gotta act quickly, the rad stuff goes fast, especially since I now know about the site!
The last 24 hours have been quite awesome.
I started Saturday morning with my parents, eating breakfast, test driving cars and what not.
I then slid comfortably into an afternoon of knitting with some freshly purchased wool from Orion whilst sitting with the cats in front of the fire.
Later, Gene and I went to a clothing exhibition where we saw friends and some new Skermunkil jewellery.
Further into the evening, I had an intense chocolate fondant craving. There's only one place to get a dish of such decadence, The Woodlands Eatery. This has to be one of my favourite restaurants in Cape Town, they always accommodate me and I often just sit at the bar and pretend I'm in my own little private booth. If you look carefully, you can see one of my cross stitch pieces on the wall. We drank Devils Peak beer and ate our yummy, gooey, delicious chocolate fondants and retired home to bed.
Sunday started with a visit from Michelle of Cinder and Skylark to discuss a project that's underway, followed by a walk with Leo and Gene up in Deer park. We then ventured to the Hout Bay market for some lunch and returned home for some fireplace, knitting and guitar playing. Oh and of course, blogging :)
Okay...so there hasn't been much action on my blog for a while.
You know how it goes, the longer no blogpost, the worse it got,
the more I felt like I could let it go, the more embarrassed I got.
Really terrible. So many platforms to keep up to date!
I've been blogging on the Cape Town Tourism website lately.
You can view my 4 posts on Cape Town activities here, here, here and here.
You can follow me on instagram, pinterest and twitter, where I'm most active.
I have managed to update my very out of date website though,
so please click through and see what's been keeping me away from blogging
