    BCBG LBD

    January 21, 2015 in Fashion, Outfit of the Day

    IMG_5196

    I recently scored this little BCBG black dress on sale from ASOS. It was 90% off and they only had one size left which was a size 0. I love that although it is daringly short, the higher bust and loose fit doesn’t make it ostentatiously sexy.

    I am so impressed with these Legit heels. I have been wearing them to numerous events the past three months and they are still holding up perfectly well. Not bad for a pair of heels under 200 bucks!

    My wonderful BF bought these Armani sunglasses for me and I adore how big the frames are. They not only protect my eyes but also my face from the harsh summer sun. Seriously it is 39 degrees this entire week here! Thank goodness for aircon!

      I’ve always wanted to order off Asos, but been a little hesitant. Did you have to pay any duties when you received your package? The dress and glasses look great on you!

        This dress (along with a ton of other sales goodies) my sister brought with her when she came down to SA. However, I have purchased from them before and always pay around R150-R200 depending on what the item is. I find I pay customs more on shoes then on dresses and make-up. Customs is luck of the draw though as I have had two parcels slip by with no fee at all.

        If you really like something and know that you won’t find it locally or at such a saving then it is so worth it. All of the brands they offer are good quality even Primark is better than Mr P.

    The past few weeks have been stressful - an escape The past few weeks have been stressful - an escape is needed! I love Autumn but I’m craving sunny beaches and tranquility and would love it if my next holiday is somewhere exclusive. 

While daydreaming and scrolling, I spotted the incredible @clubmed La Plantation d'Albion! It offers so much! Evening activities, scuba-diving (which I haven't done and want to), a beach bar, secluded coves, a luxurious Cinq Monde Spa and adult-only Zen Zones. Oh did I mention ALL-INCLUSIVE gourmet food, an open bar plus Champagne all day! It’s relaxation heaven! 

Being all-inclusive it’s also budget-friendly which will make it easier to convince Richard to book it for us! 

So, when you make a booking (Link in Bio) tag me in your snaps to make me extra jealous!

    How does the saying go again? In the entertainment How does the saying go again? In the entertainment industry, never work with children or animals?

Well, I've discovered this was especially true tonight. I was just trying to get some snaps of Rocco & Candi testing out some of the new Boss Mighty Chunks. They are available in 3 flavours- Chicken Casserole, Grilled Steak & Lamb Stew. I've honestly never seen them this excited over a specific food before, and they already go crazy for food. 

Candi was incredibly naughty. She's usually so well-behaved. She had the audacity to climb onto the table and stuck her face into the Grilled Steak can! Just as I was setting up my camera.

As a pescatarian, dog food in general typically doesn't have the most appetising smell to me. So I was surprised that all of the Boss Mighty Chunks has a pleasant & extremely unique aromatic rosemary scent. Something both Furbabies seem to love as you can clearly see from all of the fantastic blurry tongues out & mouth-watering impatient background photos of them.

    After all of the heavy rain last night. I’m trul After all of the heavy rain last night. I’m truly hoping for a few more sunny pool days! Mostly because Rocco wanted to spend the majority of last night outside in the rain 🤣🙈

He lives for water. So “splashy pool days” is heaven for him. Even if I’m making him pose… “Look at Daddy for the camera! “

He LOVES water though to the extreme. Even though he is a rescue, every animal behaviourist etc has confirmed he is most likely an Irish Setter.

He can’t swim, due to his build. Large upper thick coat and slender but furry legs. Ideal for trudging through bogs/wetlands in Ireland and the shallow parts of a pool 🤣. I have to be on full mummy duty though. As when he spots water he will go in and follow me. 

Anyone else have an Irish Setter? 

@oneroccoatatime is such a bundle of affection. Check out his Instagram for a Reel of him in his own Kiddies Pool 💦💦💦💦💦💦💦

What did you cook up tonight? 

I was Inspired by @masterchef_sa Ep 7 where the hero product was one of my absolute favourite ingredients to cook with- chillies! I did my best to recreate @tembisa_cooks Vegetarian Curry with aubergines, baby marrows, chickpeas and of course plenty of chilli! I not only used the dried chilli flakes she had in her recipe but also added something for an extra kick!

As you can see my love for spice has led me to grow my very own pots of Birds Eye Chilli. A chilli that is indigenous to Africa!

Don’t forget that the new season of MasterChef SA is back. Watch it on @mnettv DSTV Channel 101 at 18:00 Mondays to Thursdays.

    I hope that your weekend was as beautifully balanc I hope that your weekend was as beautifully balanced as mine was. It consisted of a little bit of relaxation, some social time and considering this gorgeous weather, it naturally involved a braai. 

Although, after snapping a little video for Richard, who couldn’t stay long due to tennis league. I realised we need to step up our game when it comes to cooking, even if it's just a braai. 

Are you feeling ready for the week ahead? 

And are you ready for the new season of MasterChef SA- airing on M-Net DStv Channel 101 at 18:00 on the 28th of February?
