So it seems that Winter has finally arrived in Cape Town, and it seems majority of Capetonians get affected by our grey skies and buckets of rain we've experienced last weekend....i like it maybe coz I'm a winter baby LOL Think about cuddling in bed watching a movie and falling asleep to the sound of the rain :) Perfect, i do suppose its something that can become too much especially having to go to work and getting out of your warm and lovely bed!
So its about an hour till works out and I feel that this day is taking terribly long! I cannot be bothered coz I'm blogging now and it somehow makes time move by a little quicker :) thing is I am almost constantly listening to music and right now I have Runaway by Kanye West playing in the background of my brain…makes me think hey of how we all as human beings prob don't get as much as we deserve, we think and forget the difference of what we get to what we truly deserve. "Lets have a toast for the douchebags, lets have a toast for the assholes…baby I got a plan runaway fast as you can…" that should be a line in all females heads! Remember it, remember to not take shit from the douchebags :)
aaanyways as depressing as that just sounded I'm actually really happy and its almost my birthday! So I'm also excited for the fact that next Monday is a public holiday and then I'm hoping for a days leave in the Tuesday f%*k yeah for an extra long weekend! I am totally still enjoying and still in love with my car too, still tops my bday prezzies :)

| Biker shapes won't be dating anytime soon, and it also completes a look |
 |
| stunning execution on the technical part of this jacket, super cool |
 |
| cool detailing |
 |
| acid wash FTW |
 |
| hoodies under a leather jacket, or any jacket at that is always a nice way to layer also making something appear a lot more laid back |
I was thinking today that I am pretty bad at being a klutz, yes its not a thing for graceful individuals but I'm far from a prim poppie someone told me that clumsiness goes away the older you get, I'm not too certain about that because I'm almost 100% sure mines getting worse LOL! I don't really care it doesn't hurt anyone but causes me to clean up lots of unnecessary crap, like today a mug of water miraculously fell over on my desk, soaked my note pad, forms and ran into my cupboard and dampened the fitted carpets; wonderfully smart of me to put a bunch of flowers in mug hey! (I didn't have a vase till the accident). I couldn't care less about the carpet with loads of tissues and papers trampled on it hahaha!

| Imagine this chick being clumsy! hahaha! |
So besides that simpleness of me it is so damn cold in Cape Town! I see the sun but I think its just there for light -_- *sigh* I think the office a/c is also ridiculously cold, people are sitting in coats and boots and I'm not much different in my layers of clothes topped off with a leather jacket. I've to learn a lot about dressing for winter, I'm quite a fan, but not nice to get up for work in the morning and literally have your nails freeze so much they turn blue along with your lips and your skin turns to pale unimaginable!
 |
| Something i can't live without anymore! in winter its one of my staple makeup MUST haves to give my lips a pop of colour, do the same and be bold, it helps in the cold :) |
 |
| so pretty |
 |
| You can never have too many coats, they are perfect on an icy day and you have no idea what to wear to keep warm. Melton coats are to die for and anything unique and unusual is the way to go |
I feel the urge and desperate need to go shopping, its funny that i somehow can't find the perfect winter booties. I've got black and brown flats, wedges boots in black as well as beige and also wedge sneakers which should keep me set aside from all the other closed flats but to find the boot is making me crazy! leather jackets and short coats have also become my recent staple. So i thought the weather has cleared up as i was out and about in a little bit of sunshine...The best advice on rocking your winter warmies is to layer and layer and have appropriate things under when you need to peel some layers off (Don't end up wearing your bra over your thermal vest) another word of advice, keep your feet warm! if your feet is cold you'll freeze your butt off all day also throw an extra pair of socks in your bag ESPECIALLY IF you do public transport and have to walk from the bus, train, etc.
SPORT CONTINUES...
Winter Warmer TIps from me :)
firstly: Invest in good quality, classic pieces like jackets and coats and also boots that will basically never date and are pretty basic and interchangeable. When you buy more Fad like pieces, be bold and brave BUT don't spend too much.
Today I am wearing:
- Purple skinny jeans
- Black flat suede booties (long with back tie up and tassels)- Woolworths
- L/S tee under a black and gold lace boxy tee- Cotton On
- Black leather jacket- Truworths
- Colar necklace, snake bracelets, black Ice watch, beanie
 |
| LOVE unusual jackets, see the contract of textures and colours. makes it cool and updated |
 |
| these are my absolute faves, aren't they just too adorbs simple, laid back and uber cool :) perfect time for me to wear hobo-beanies yaaay!
hope you all had a good monday and a little excited to know winter won't be so cold with all these warmies.
RUSH x
