Nothing sets my designer’s heart aflutter quite like a new collection from one of the most coveted jewellery brands, Pichulik. Season after season, the brand creates timeless yet daring pieces that would make anyone swoon. The newest collection, Joy!, which is their SS19 collection is beautiful as ever. Inspired by the pure, magical period before […]
Good Stuff 01. / Benu Made
I’m starting a new series over here on the blog featuring brands that are creating beautifully designed things all around the world. First up, we have Benu Made, a jewelry brand by Pauline Hagan, who has a beautiful studio based in Prague (one of my favourite cities in the world). I’ve been following Pauline’s work […]
Well Woven / CarryAnn
Anyone who’s done research into the fashion industry will know that it’s pretty easy to uncover the atrocities of fast fashion if only one looks in the right places. Exploitation, unethical labour and wastage are major issues that are associated with the fashion industry, to name a few. I was simply delighted to discover CarryAnn […]
Potion / Cold-brewed Goodness
As a person who doesn’t drink any hot drinks (more about that here), I’m used to making coffee, adding milk and then throwing in a ton of ice blocks so that it isn’t warm. So, you can imagine my excitement when I came across Potion Coffee, a Cape Town- based brand that produces cold-brewed coffee. […]
LionHeart / Beautiful Bakes
Who do you turn to for cakes covered in watercolour details, pretty pastel tones, fresh flowers and meringue drops, you ask? LionHeart, of course! I first discovered LionHeart when Nikki posted about it on her beautiful Instagram page. Since then, I’ve been following LionHeart’s page too and am in awe of how aesthetically pleasing their […]

Made in SA / Zana Products
Hello The other day, I popped in to visit the Zana studio in Woodstock. It was started in 2012 by Robyn and Sue Britz. It started out small, but has grown so much from there! I had no idea Zana was local and so close to home until I read their Instagram bio. Let me just […]
