Today I have a fun super colorful post for all of you! This morning I went to the Cotton on super store launch in Canal walk with my sister Ilke (Its her birthday so Happy Happy to her!) 

The super store consists of the adult cotton on range as well as the body range, the kiddies range and typo. My favorites must have been the typo and the body section. I am such a sucker for pretty stationary as well as pretty gym gear and sleep wear. I think my sister bought the whole kiddies section and I must say I was tempted to start searching for their biggest kids sizes for me! 

The whole store just looks so pretty and light, definitely perfect shopping conditions as everything lures you in. The guys section is also huge now so my boyfriend is pretty happy about that (you can see his post about it up on www.stillframemylife.com later today) 

Even though it was my sister's birthday she said she just had to buy me this ipad case as it was basically made for me right? :)

Asos skirt | Zara navy jacket | Zara white top | Peacocks nude heels | Mr Price necklace

I cant remember if i have worn yellow and navy together before but I really like the combination at the moment. Especially when the yellow comes in cute touched like a sweet skirt from Asos or pretty necklace from Mr Price! I know it is matchy but the nude shoes and white top bring balance to the look and the different shapes and textures make it interesting to look at. 

This is going to be a crazy week especially because of my day trip to Johannesburg for the Henry Holland and Mr Price limited edition tees launch! Joburg is 3 hours away by plane so its quite a long flight for just one day.

I am loving a bit of a mash-up between military and preppy at the moment! My camouflage pants also look great with a collar shirt and jersey (maybe a look coming up soon?) These two might not seem to go hand in hand but I think it works! This outfit is perfect for running around in as my life has been quite a blur recently which is quite a good thing even though I feel its a bit crazy :P

Yesterday I was lucky enough to be flown out to Johannesburg for the day to celebrate the launch of the Mr Price Denim and Tees campaign. It features T-shirts designed by British designer Henry Holland as well as the band FUN. I had a super early start to the day but it was all worth it when we got shuttled off to Sandton for a rooftop launch.

The theme was "We go together" and I absolutely loved Mr. Price's creativity and attention to detail. We all received cute name badges in an array of colors and were served the cutest finger food like fish and chips, bangers and mash, strawberries and cream all to go with the theme. They also had a rad photo booth were you could accessorize with Mr Price and then get a photo taken which they would put up on instagram. I thought that was such a special touch and a great way to ad the social media factor to the launch. 

It was difficult to get any pics of my without my trusty photographer by my side (aka thelawry aka my boyfriend aka stillframemylife :P) but at least I got one sneaky pic with Henry which I love because he is such a happy down to earth guy and in this pic it looks like he wants to murder someone standing on the side hehe.

Recently a very sweet reader and youtube subscriber asked if they could send me a gift, I dont usually except gifts as comments are gift enough to me but she really wanted to and she is super sweet! I just want to say a HUGE big thank you to Emma (@emmak1 on twitter) for all my lovely goodies all the way from the UK!

Everything that she sent is sooooo me it is actually incredible. I adore everything and I am already addicted to the soap and glory sexy mother pucker lipgloss! 
I also cant wait to get our white Christmas tree now because I am going to hang my cute mint and silver ornament right in front. Emma must have some psychic  powers because I never told anyone the color scheme I wanted for my Christmas tree this year!

This was really one of the most special gifts I have ever received and so generous. Thank you again and again and again Emma! xx

Last week I received these stunningSpektre sunglassesin the post all the way from Milan. I have been intrigued by the reflective sunglasses style for a while now and thought it would be great for summer. At first the look very out there and attention grabbing but as soon as I started wearing them I didnt want to take them off! I have quite a few outfit posts coming up wearing them which I cant wait to share.

I also just had to add two photos of the sunset last week. It was so weird and red (almost just like my sunnies!) and there was a thunderstorm going on although unfortunately (and to Michael's utter dismay) I did not get any lightening pics.

Happy Monday everyone! Hope your week is off to a great start. I had an amazing but tiring weekend where we were constantly busy doing awesome things! These stunning pictures were taken at the beautiful Delheim wine farm in Stellenbosch. These were taken quite early after Michael did a 12km trail run on the farm and the weather was just so gorgeous I wanted to stay there the whole day.

On Tuesday night we went to the opening of The Great Gatsby open air show at Spier wine estate. The weather wasn't playing along and it was overcast and pretty chilly but that definitely did not dampen any spirits as people arrived wearing an assortment of 1920's outfits. The roaring twenties were definitely back and I felt transported especially when the show started. We has some yummy food (red velvet cupcakes to die for!) delicious Spier wine and then settled in under the stars (and blankets) to watch the show. It was a really amazing night and I wish I could do it all over again!

If you want to read a full review on the show and see some awesome photos of the night go visit www.stillframemylife.comand if you are in the Cape Town are I suggest you go get tickets asap before they are all sold out!

Heels from Zoom | Pink Zara blazer | Woolworths studio polka dot top | Yellow Asos skirt | Ipad cover from Typo

You all know I love color and one of my first ultimate color blocking posts was this one calledSkittles from when i was still living in Malta. The pink jacket has made a reappearance but the background is actually doing more color blocking than I actually am! I am wearing the adorable polka dot top I got from Woolworths and I love that it gives the look a bit of depth and interest. 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and that Monday isnt treating you to badly. I went to go watch Breaking dawn part two over the weekend, ate lots of prawns and sushi, had a huge milkshake at Hudsons, ate at the woolies cafe twice (see where this is going...) did a video (haircare!) and had lots of fun in between. This week will be crazy but oh well, its that time of year :P xx

I am more comfortable mixing colors than patterns but when i mixed the polka dots, stripes and shapes in this outfit I thought it really worked especially because I didn't use any color. It might be getting a tad to hot to wear sweaters during the day but as Christmas approaches I always want to! Thank goodness some evenings still have a chill so I can wear pretty sweaters to my hears content :)

I always get asked about my hair care and styling so I thought it would be the easiest to answer everyone's questions with a video (down below) 

Shampoo - Head and shoulders mixed with Aussie luscious long shampoo

Conditioner - Lee Stafford bleach blondes and Gliss hair repair with liquid keratin (I also use the 5 minute miracle treatment from Aussie sometimes)

For styling I use - John Frieda sheer blonde and Gliss hair repair prior to blowdrying. Then I use a tresemme paddle brush and babyliss hair dryer to blowdry my hair in sections starting with my fringe. While my hair is damp I put on a lot of the mythic oil as my hair is super dry. Then when I have finished blow drying I spray on some John Frieda frizz ease to give my hair shine and to manage fly aways.

My hair color is Garnier nutrisse number 10 ( I think it is just called light blonde)

Recently myself and Michael got to experience the awesome Cape Wheel of excellence at the V&A Waterfront in the VIP pod. It was a gorgeous day and we could see so much of beautiful Cape Town and for once the mountain wasn't covered in its usual "tablecloth". We were spoiled with yummy sparkling wine and took a long leisurely ride. I was saying the whole time I wish it wouldn's stop as I could go round and round for ages. If Sevruga had brought me some take away sushi I would easily have sat in the pod for the rest of the day.

I love it when Mr Price comes out with new and exciting ranges, and its been happening a lot lately so I am definitely in heaven! How cool are these heels and shift dress from Project limited addition galactic? Its like 60's meets outer space, maybe they got inspiration from Barbarella? Check out more of the range on The FAB Guide.
