Dear wanderer,
My name is Olwethu-Thando, and this blog is ‘my place’.
It’s as much a creative outlet as it is an informative & immersive space which platforms the kaleidoscope of decent options available to you in Fashion, Travel, and lifestyle (and the ones to avoid!).
Chronicling my forays into the coolest stop-ins, to the exciting fresh talents on my radar, is a fun adventure for me as a black creative – which also, blessedly, expands my network, knowledge, and experiences.
It also means you can search and discover Thrilling Listicles & Trusted Reviews to build your own itinerary!
Cultural tapestries & globetrotting tribe,
I’m doing what I love AND offering up my platform to level up your travel, fashion & lifestyle game!
Venturing from the vibrant streets of Johannesburg to the far reaches of the world, the best stories are in the photos and love letters here, in this sanctuary where authenticity meets glamour.
My sojourns have taken me from the bustling markets of Paris to the serene beaches of the Cape, leaving an indelible mark on my fashion sensibilities and enriching my narrative.
A highlight, along my global odyssey, has been gracing Glamour Magazine with my travel recommendations. This momentous feature allowed me to share my perspective and positive travel experiences on an international stage – adding another black figure to experiences for all, and sharing feasible possibilities for people like me.
Honestly, each destination becomes a palette for inspiration.
They’re a celebration of the extraordinary events and cultural spectacles that shape my (and others’) journey. From attending elite fashion galas (thank you SAKS Fith Avenue) to partaking in immersive cultural festivals and having exclusive members-only clubs open doors, I’ve had the privilege of being a witness to a few of the world’s most impressive gatherings and spaces.
As a fashion enthusiast, my style escapades are not just confined to renowned brands but encompass a fusion of global trends and local artisans. Collaborations with noteworthy brands have further adorned my journey as an African creative – masterminding a marriage of elegance and innovation.
So, whether you seek fashion insights, travel inspirations, or a glimpse into the life of a global creative, you’re in the right place.
