Leap Year!!

Today's the 29th of February, which means that we have one extra day. 24 extra hours...to do it all! Have fun, experience love or make a difference! Today is the day! Well, realistically speaking today is probably just another day...

but for those of you that believe that today brings with it luck, I hope you found it in abundance! And for those of you that thought today would be the ideal day to pop the BIG question but somehow have managed to "chicken-out", I hope that these pics provide you with some motivation :)

Pink filled days

Today for some reason I found myself thinking back to days when all that mattered was ballet and whether or not I did my homework. I remember how I absolutely couldn't wait for the day that I got to dance in pointe shoes, 'cause only the "big girls" could. Those where the simple days when you had no idea of the impact that your decisions would have on your sometimes near and sometimes distant future. Well, also maybe 'cause your mom made all the tough decisions for you:) Today I found myself longing for those day!

Anyway back to reality...

Time to breathe...

The past couple of weeks have been super busy and I haven't really had a moment to post an entry, let alone breathe. The moment I finally got a chance to sit down and enjoy the stillness I remembered how much I enjoyed going through these two blog and how I felt they captured stillness amongst the commotion.

Last year I fell in love with Rog Walker's photography for the simple fact that it felt as though I was getting a sneak peak into what he loved. Coupled with this was the simplicity with which he conveyed his message. I am a huge fan of photography that looks effortless and he sure does achieve this.

At the beginning of this year I discovered I see a different you and fell in love!! I was happy to see that most of their photographs are taken in Soweto, which offers a great contrast and has resulted in beautiful photographs. Local is truly lekker!!

Most of all I love how they both manage to capture beautiful fashion set in everyday life.

Here's to a great week :)

Peace, love and happiness!

A little sunshine...

Today I woke up hoping for a little sunshine and remembered this one song that puts a smile on my face no matter what. My friend introduced it to me a few years ago; I had no idea who sung it and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was Janelle Monae. I thought I would share it with you :) So here it goes... Letting Go by Janelle Monae.

Peace, love and happiness!

Time to decorate!

In a couple of days I will be headed back to Cape Town, which means that I will be moving into a new place. I am super excited because this means that I get to start afresh...well sort of. I have all of my stuff from last year but I feel like embarking on a little bit of an interior decorating journey. This got me trawling the internet for ideas and all I ended up doing was daydreaming of the future and the beautiful place I wish to own one day. What struck me was the different kinds of places I liked.*sigh* Anyway, here are a few pics of the places I fell in love with.

A perfect balance offered by bold and busy.

Clean lines create the perfect work space

...whilst the mis-matched bits of this work space make me feel as though it's okay to be a little messy:)

It's been super hot lately and all I can think about is ice-cream. Not only that, that's all I can dream about. *Sigh* So I decided to share a bit of my love for this amazing thing called ice-cream and maybe then I'll stop dreaming about it. Here are just a few pics of the different ways you can enjoy it.

Here's to a cooler day:)

Peace, love and happiness!
