Cape Town Foodie Escapades: La Petite Ferme Review
I guess that in light of my upcoming trip to Paris, french cuisine is beginning to fully enter into my foodie rotation.

Outfit of the Day: Darkness
A forgotten simple outfit – its visuals lost to the back-end of my phones archives. I love this straight, ombre hair from Aretha Bauwens Hair. It makes it easy to just dress and go when I’m travelling. I’m also rocking black tassel earrings by H&M, a vest and pleather jacket (that is falling apart, after…

Outfit of the Day: Fine Art
I recently got the opportunity to visit Norval Foundation, in Steenberg. The incredible magnitude of the gallery itself, is matched only by the landscape that makes its backdrop. “We are dedicated to the research and exhibition of 20th- and 21st-century visual art from South Africa and beyond…We aim to create high-quality exhibitions and public programming…

Outfit of the Day: Deep Blue Broad
“We all have one idea of what the color blue is, but pressed to describe it specifically, there are so many ways: the ocean, lapis lazuli, the sky, someone’s eyes. Our definitions are as different as we are ourselves.” – Sarah Dessen I’ve spent so many travel days wearing this dress, that it’s nearly my…
Cape Town Foodie Escapades: Bilboa Restaurant Review
Maybe I’m an outlier in more than one way. I seem to be one of the few people who get a wonderful dining experience when I deign to visit Cape Town’s most celebrated luxury strip: Camps Bay. I’ve reclined on luxurious seats while having overpriced quality food, and I have sipped on a wealth of…

Cape Town Foodie Escapades: Mischu Coffee Review
The first visit was a calm ebb…a lethargic moment in an enclave wreaking of freshly ground coffee beans and simple cafe finery. Their linguistic dexterity rests in the language of coffee; and any gastrolinguist worth their taste-buds, will speak in tongues when they have a cuppa here. The second visit was a loud affair as…
