Props to Bianca Miles and Khaya Sibiya, for their recently launched mobile boutique for their fashion brand, Punk & Ivy.

Skhanda Love: Nandi & K.O

Another Beautiful offering from K.O. Such a beautiful song and well conceptualized music video - kinda reminds me of Nelly and Kelly's 2002 hit track, Dilemma.

Well done to both K.O, Nandi and of course Young Legend films for such an amazing video. Once again, local artists doing best and pushing boundaries.

Couldn't upload the video because YouTube was being retarded but you can check out the vid here

Well done Khuli Chana

It's always so amazing to see local musicians pushing boundaries. Below is a music video by Hip hop superstar, Khuli Chana. The story line is inspired by an incident of mistaken identity where he was shot by cops because they thought he was a kidnapper. Khuli has translated the incident into a form of poetic art with the help of director, Kyle Lewis. 

The music video is so rich in quality and visuals - I hate to say this but it almost looks like the video of an American rapper. With that said, I see no reason why our local musicians still want to compare themselves to these international cats. 

Jay-Z, Kanye's and Drake are brilliant in their own ways and we are always blown away by the quality of their music videos, but our local artists have been producing some really amazing videos off late and I for one am quite impressed. Well done Khuli, I hope the rest of SA stars can follow in your footsteps.  

Check out the video to 9 Shots below:



Thanks to the 10and5 website for showcasing the video so we could see it.

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Johannesburg 2015


I actually cannot deal.



I need these pieces in my life. Clean lines with a twist. I absolutely love this collection from the  Selfi SS2016 range. @lovethyselfie



Embracing her Africaness,  Khosi Nkosi brought the African print trend in various ways. Ideas for my traditional wedding one day. @khosinkosi





All men should get their notebooks ready and take some notes from the Fabiani range. Who said men can't rock the print trend?
