I love the beach. Sandy feet and the smell of the ocean makes me happy, and so I secretly envy people who has a permanent view of the ocean. It seems when you live at the beach that you’re allowed to take things a little easier. And that is exactly why the Roux family bought this quaint beach house 25 years ago, when Melkbosstrand was still a little seaside West Coast village.
From stationery to shoes, bridesmaids dresses to bouquets you’ll find your inspiration fix right here.
We are so thrilled to share these inspiring images from Christine’s workshop she did at Val de Vie Estate a few months ago. Even though it was a cold and rainy day, stylist Anneke Roux from AnnaH pulled off this romantic Spring look.
We start the week with another happy celebration, this darling birthday party for little Kellan. Kellan’s mom Lara Scott is a wonderful photographer, with a great sense of style and dreamed up this special party for her son. Lara says that ever since Kellan was a tiny little baby, his first sounds imitated little owl ‘oooos’.
We are beyond thrilled to share a sneak peek of the Spring/Summer 2013 Munaluchi Magazine with you. The magazine recently celebrated its 3rd birthday and is regarded as leading source of bridal inspiration for women of colour.
Every time I eat linguine or spaghetti with a basic basil pesto, I feel very Italian – in a “pretend” kind of way. It is the opposite of what we grew up on in South Africa, believing that pasta always needs a chunky, heavy meat sauce. This simple way of enjoying pasta is synonymous with my motto for the new year, keeping things uncomplicated, yet robust.
Get ready to be blown away by more beautiful shops and homes in 2013. We kick of with this quaint little shop in Wale Street Cape Town, filled to the brim with chocolate!
