Style by Super Mom Seeing Red

I know the weather today is a bit chilly for this outfit but it was a post that was meant to be published last week but alas did not happen! Well if nothing else here is something to brighten a rather grey day in Cape Town!

These red skinny jeans from Woolworths are my new favourite item of clothing! Well you know by now I love red and lucky for me it is super popular this season. The floral T is also from Woolworths and the jacket you must know by now is from Mr Price and was featured here and here.

The skinny jeans are a great fit, very flattering(so the hubby tells me) and I have taken to rolling the hem of my jeans up, for a preppy-look, which according to Lucy da Costa from Style Society SA is bang on trend! I am loving this floral T which also has the high-low hem I have blogged about before.

These gorgeous pumps, from Luli Pulani, are one of my favourite pairs! Not only do they look good but yes they are red and super comfy too!

I am hoping that this is not the last of the good weather but that said I am really enjoying the transition from my summer wardrobe to autumn/winter and have bought a few fab things, which I will share soon!

Items: Red Skinny Jeans R250 Woolworths, Floral T-Shirt R130 Woolworths, Skinny Grey Belt R99 Woolworths, Studded Denim Jacket R179 Mr Price, Floral Pumps from R500 Luli Pulani, Red Beads Woolworths(Last winter), Russian Red Lipstick R180 MAC, Red Nail Polish Nails Inc.(Bought in UK a while ago)

Style by Super Mom – Denim and Gold Part II

The studded denim jacket above from Mr Price, is one of my favourite finds for Autumn/Winter this year. I think it is the vivid Indigo colour that I love so much. It looks great with your basic colours like black, white and grey but it really pops when you pair it with red. That of course is material for another post entirely!

The other thing I love about the jacket are the gold studs, I have been dying to own something with studs and I thought this was the perfect place to start! I am wearing the Mr Price jacket over my leggings and long T from the EarthAddict Classic range.

Gold is definitely one of my most popular accessory choices for the season. It compliments black beautifully but works equally well with brights such as red and orange, which are also trending this season.

The ring above is my latest purchase from Accessorize, I have the same style ring in grey and white and I have had so much wear out of them this summer. I love chunky jewellery and I have gotten so many compliments wearing these rings that I simply could not resist the gold one! The gold bracelet it also from Accessorize.

The nail colour I chose for this outfit is Carry On by Essie, it is one of my favourite winter shades. It is so dark and sultry, without being too goth-like! I love it!

Items: Studded Denim Jacket R179 Mr Price, Raven Classic Long-sleeved T R299 Earthaddict, Raven Classic Leggings R349 Earthaddict, Gold Facet Ring R199 Accessorize , Gold Bobble Stretch Bracelet R119 Accessorize, Essie Nail Polish R99.

Silver Fig Jewellery

I love jewellery and have many different pieces but I have been searching for that “statement” necklace; something special and meaningful but also something I can wear everyday, if I so wished!

Imagine my delight when I found Silver Fig Jewellery! Silver Fig offer a stunning, original silver jewellery range, designed and hand-crafted by Neil Miller in his Johannesburg studio.

Silver Fig was founded in 2010 by husband and wife team Heather and Neil Miller. Silver Fig culminated in the couple’s combined experience of over 22 years in the jewellery industry, in management and design respectively, living and working in Johannesburg, London, Paris and New York directly for leading brands Debeers LV, Asprey & Garrard, Bulgari and Tiffany & Co., and later for a boutique workshop in London’s Hatton Garden.

Neil’s vast experience, as an independent designer, married with a unique and individual approach to silver-crafting has resulted in a unique collection of silver jewellery. His creations are inspired by travel throughout Africa, which combine nature and good-luck charms to create beautiful sterling silver necklaces, bracelets and earrings. Silver Fig Jewellery is currently available in 15 stores throughout South Africa.

Their jewellery has been featured in Elle, Marie Claire, Grazia, Glamour, Woman & Home, OK magazine and is loved by celebs such as Kate Moss, who is a fan of their Impala pendant.

My favourite piece from their collection, is the Wishbone Pendant(seen above and below), which I received last week, in this pretty pink pouch. I am loving it and have received so many compliments since I have started wearing it. The pendant is beautifully made and I know it is something I am going to treasure forever!

FEAT sock co

As I have mentioned previously nothing gives me greater pleasure than discovering amazing home-grown talent! Meeting these creative people who have taken their skills and talent and put them into practice, doing what they truly love, is truly inspiring!

I am a true sock lover and very fussy when it comes to buying socks, my precious tootsies deserve only the best! Soft and comfy and more importantly socks that do not cut off the circulation in your lower leg, are attributes that are very important to me, when selecting a pair of socks. So if this all sounds familiar then look no further, FEAT Sock Co. have a pair of socks with your name on it!

The feature of an ensemble is the focal point, the centerpiece, the element that draws one’s attention. ‘Feat.’ socks characterise the collaboration between eye-catching aesthetics and quality comfort. They are made with truck loads of soul and with all your swagger, you and FEAT. will make the perfect pair. As you strut your stuff, remember that FEAT. socks are made with only the best yarns and all production is kept local to the Western Cape, South Africa. ~ FEAT.sock.co

I love the funky designs and fresh colours – taking the ordinary sock to a whole new level. Below are a few of my favourites – truth be told my favourite-favourite is the pair above from their mens range, I will have to buy them for Mr and subtly move them to my sock draw!

So who are these sock loving designers?

Alison and Chelsey are two best friends whose dreams and adventures have always been cushioned by a pretty pair of socks. At age eight and nine, their friendship bloomed in dance class, wearing little, lacy, ribboned toe-socks. By age thirteen, they were stealing Ali’s older sister’s socks to slide around muddy paddocks with horses. Today, in their early twenties, they have decided to take their love affair with socks more seriously, with all the joy and frivolity of those two silly little girls.
