DRAB TO FAB !!!

I came across this site http://www.themacbethcollection.com/ and just totally loved it!! They take plain and boring looking-goodies from around the home and office and decorate it with one of their beautiful and stylish designs!! Your choice of course!!

End result.... soooo pretty!!

An absolute MUST-HAVE-ITEM!!

2010!!!

OK,so I kinda suck at doing this on a regular basis,But Happy belated 2010!!


Hope you all had a super, awesome party!! I sure did :) Except for a couple of dodgy minutes where I had a bit of an outer body experience(or maybe it was just the mix of patron and absolute!!) and kissed a guy that then ran off and kissed a horse on the mouth!! Yeah...not hot!!

Myself and My super-fab sister Superficial girl after too many glasses of Moet!!


Anyway,so good luck with all those N Y's resolutions!! I didn't make any this year...decided that I'm just going to take things as they come and make it a damn good year!!

My Fave Xmas cookies!!

YUM!! Aren't these xmas birdie cookies just too cute! Definitely my fave for the holiday season! Eat and be merry...and then off to gym ;)

SEASONS GREETINGS FROM THE XMAS FAIRIES!!

Hey everyone!! Oh my gosh,it has been about 3 months since my last post!! CRAZY!! The last part of the year has just been super-hectic!! Anyway I just want to wish you all an absolutely fantastic festive season!!

Picnic love!!

Hellooo to everyone after a very crazy but fabulous week!! So this weekend I am having a picnic in the park with some girlfriends and thought something like this would be so awesome and cute!! Surrounded by champers,delicious desserts and all kinds of other delectable goodies!! Oh and dont forget the super-sweet accessories!!

CANDYGIRL LOVES!!

Aww,just how cute are these heart-shaped salad accessories!! Add some passion to that perfect picnic or candlelit dinner!!

LOVE IT OT LEAVE IT??

I really enjoy wearing leggings...it's just the most comfy thing ever and looks great with most shoes,but i am not the biggest fan of tights! Kinda reminds me of high school and it sooo made me itch in dodgy places!!

Anyway,what do you think of these geisha-tights from Liberty of London?? Love it or leave it?? In my opinion it is a definite no-no!! I just cant see any hotness happening here!!

Wednesday wishlist!!

Greetings to all fab friends from a super-windy Cape Town!! Today,to my utter delight, I found out that a new Missoni Hotel will be opening in Cape Town next year!! All for the 2010 world cup soccer!! Yay,yay,yay ...I have always been a major Missoni fan! The vibrant colours and bold,graphic prints just really puts me in a happy place!! And I am in desperate need of their stunning home accessories range!

Anyone else for some Missoni madness??

TUESDAY TREAT!!

Ooohh..this would surely be a treat at any tea party!! The tea cup and saucer are simply "to-die-for" and who wouldn't love the yummy-looking daisy cookie!! Super-sweet!!

GIRLY NIGHT PLEASE!!

Hey all!! I'm sure you will agree with me when I say that light-blue,skinny jeans and lovely pink manicured nails do NOT mix with car parts and grease!! Yip...that is how I spent my afternoon!! Stuck with a flat car battery and no hunks to the rescue, I had to deal with this little issue(actually in my books it would be classified as a major drama!!) all by myself!!



Anyway I survived... and with only one broken nail!! But now I am in serious need of some girly time!!


First on the menu would be a pampering session!! Love these shower caps!! Pretty pretty!!

And then just chill out with some vino and a good book in a comfy corner...mmm can't wait!!

Sweet dreams everyone!!

Flower power!!

Someone actually told me this weekend that during a recession people are far more likely to take a shopping list to the shops and then stick to it!! And seriously...they only buy what's on the list!! How do they do that??

I ventured out on Saturday morning,'since I needed a couple of basic thingies like sugar and coffee etc. and came home with fab,grey leather boots( they were on special!!) very funky studded heels, Max factor false lash effect mascara, a lovely floral top, a couple of pretty,floral bangles and SUPER expensive eye-cream(the sales assistant told me it has botox in and apparently i need it...!!!)

So,I say ditch the list!! You only live once!!

Love my floral top and bangles...just right for spring!!

Also love these flower power cushions!! And I really wouldn't mind this glam Flamenco Coal beach bag by Anne Spade!!

HAPPY MONDAY!!

Hey everyone!! Just a quick goodmorning before I set off for my early morning beach
walk!! Hope you all had an awesome weekend,that involved lots of fabulous indulgences!! I will share some of mine a bit later!! xx

GORGEOUS GIRLY GOODIES!!

OOhh, how very ,very cute and simply candyliscious are these?? The lovely pink packaging is just too pretty for words!! I am a total sucker for such fab girly goodies!!
Something sweet that's all good for you!!

Love the cupcake bandage tin!!

LIVE,LAUGH AND LOVE!!

Happy Friday to everyone!! Hope you are all smiling and spreading the love!! I really think it is much needed out there!! I spotted these pretty signs at a great, little online shop called livelaughlove! Aren't these vintage signs just super-fab and inspiring??

HOLIDAY HAPPINESS!!

Oh what a morning...I have just rolled out of my bed and am busy getting ready for some wine and sunshine!! Yip,it is national braai/barbecue day in South Africa!! Ahh it's going to be heaven just relaxing with friends and family!! And outdoor entertaining always needs a bit of fabness!! Happy day to all my friends and followers xx

Dorothy does "bling"!!

Wow...midweek already and since tomorrow is a public holiday in South Africa, I will definitely be painting the town red tonight!!!! Now all I need is a pair of ruby-red, blingy heels like the awesome ones some of the top designers have designed for the 70 year anniversary of the classic movie "The wizard of Oz"!!

Loving it!!

TUESDAY TREAT!!

Hey all!! Hope you are all having a fab Tuesday! Mine has been pretty good so far,except for my relentless craving for cookies all day long! I've had strawberry whirls ,choc chip and some nutty ones,but I am still in need of the perfect one!! So now I've been drooling online and found these super-awesome ones,but I think they look way too cute to eat.

LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT??

Tattoos have been around for ages!! Over the last couple of decades it has enjoyed great popularity with our culture!! From bad-ass rockers and bikers to sweethearts declaring their love to each other!! Then came Ed Hardy with tattoo inspired clothing and the world loved it!! Now we have tattoo inspired tableware...


What do you think?? Love it or leave it??

FEATHER FLAIR!!

When I was younger I used to adore peacocks! They are so majestic and dramatic and can add flair to any occasion!! A perfect idea for an extra special table setting!!
This purple peacock feather inspired scarf from Liberty of London is just fabulous

Oooh i just love this little peacock feather clutch bag!! Super-cute!!

Lovely peacock touches for around the house!!

MOROCCAN MOODS!!

Good Monday morning to everyone!! Today I'm feeling Moroccan!

Creating a new trendy Moroccan look is really easy and fun!! The north African culture has gorgeous earthy and spicy textures and colours to play around with!! Combine it with brighter splashes of colour and scatter lovely printed pillows and cushions everywhere for a relaxed and luxurious feel!!

Set the mood with a stunning Moroccan lantern. At night it will add a romantic and magical feel!!


Add some exotic curios and Moroccan accessories to liven up your dining area.
