Inspired: Mother of Fashion Styling

Meet Grace Coddington Creative Director and Anna Wintour Editor in Chief of Vogue, the briliant mega force behind Vogue magazine.

So last Monday in class our lecture bought in a fashion documentary that turned Grace from one of fashion’s best kept secrets into a household celebrity. For those of you who haven’t seen the documentary, “IT IS A MUST”. It's based on the September Issue which takes us behind-the-scenes with Editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and her staff (including Grace Coddington) during the production of the September 2007 issue of American Vogue. It’s an amazing documentary I really loved it and immediately fell in love with Grace’s creative work.

Did you know that every year Louis Vuitton burns all their unsold bags?

Yes, it's true. Similar to Chanel, LV happens to burn leftover goods at the end of the year. If the bags are not sold, they burn them in order to prevent putting a lower price on them. Historically, it’s known that LV does not put its pieces on sale. This is done to sustain an item’s value. Cant they just donate to me *cries* what a waste of good fashion bags/wallets/luggage bags etc whatever.

Here are other LV facts you certainly didn’t expect:

• 99% of all “Vuittons” in the world are fake
• In 2004, Louis Vuitton have celebrated its 150th anniversary
• In 1858, the world’s first flat top trunk was created by Louis Vuitton
• ‘Wanamaker’s department’ stores was the first to buy LVs items in 1898
• Vuitton HQ is in Florence, Italy
• Louis Vuitton was born in Jura, France in 1821.
• The “LV” monogram was originally meant to foil counterfeiting attempts
• When the Louis Vuitton Building opened on the Champs-Elysees it was  the largest travel-goods store in the world.

Nice one!!

Friday Inspiration: Winter Checks

Hi yall today we aren’t doing any celeb lol....like I said my outfit inspiration can come from anyone it doesn’t matter who, so today I was inspired by these models wearing skirts from ASOS, they gave me an idea on how I can play around with my vintage winter skirt and it worked just fine :-)...On that note hope everyone will have a lovely weekend… as for here in South Africa we will be having a long weekend *yipeeeedancing* because Sunday the 16th is a public holiday (Youth Day) were we are celebrating all the youth that fought  & died for us during the struggle of apartheid.. therefore in South Africa if a public holiday is on a Sunday it automatically falls over into Monday making it a holiday too since Sunday is already in the weekend. So to all my South Africans Happy Youth Day :-)

Conversations with MySeLf...... !?!

Are you LIVING or are you just EXISTING?

There was a quote made in one of Tyler Perrys movie which I cannot recall, but i think about that quote a lot........

I know  people will have a different opinion on what living is to them. I feel that this is something that many people should take into consideration in their lifetime. Many people do not take nor see every opportunity that is being presented to them. I feel that truly "living" is very important, and consists of self-confidence, determination, and not taking anything for granted. It consists of appreciating everything that you surround yourself with and being optimistic.

Of course, however, we all cannot be perfect, and we can't have gleaming grins plastered on our face all 24 hours of every day. Lately I try to be optimistic in everything I do, and to be determined and confident in myself as a person.

If you never take risks in life, you never really live. Fear keeps so many of us from actually living versus existing. I think everyone need to go out there and live, there is more to life than what we see! We need to take risks, and if you want to do something, you should just do it, learn to take chances if its possible instead of always doubting and postponing things. Dare to Dream and dream big!!

 Living can be about doing what you wish to do, not listening to negative people and surrounding yourself with positivity, taking risks, going on your own adventures, and trying new things. It's also expanding your mind and knowledge in whatever way you can.

When it comes to whether or not I'm living, I don't think I am at the moment. There's a lot going on that's beyond my control, however I am doing all I can to get there, I have way too many dreams, goals, and adventures to accomplish. I haven't even started living, and no by living i am not refering to fame or anything like that i am talking about something that fulfils your soul, something that makes you want to wake up every morning and go do it, it can be work, projects, business, and even fame for others.... etc....So when I do start living it's going to be absolutely amazing.  Right now I might just be existing, but I will be living soon no doubt.

I do have moments where I feel like I'm living.  I  want to feel like I'm living for something. I'm here to fulfil a purpose in my life. I've yet to find that purpose.

What is your opinion on this ? How do you feel? Are you living or just existing….!?! Let me know......

Houndstooth Cardi.

Today i just wanted to be simple but warm as well and this was the quickest outfit i could think of lol, houndstooth items are the hottest thing right now including Black & White Monochrome outfits and striped Black&White. My outfit is cute and the colors work well together but theres still more to do with these items. Hope everyone is having a good Tuesday.

Out and About.

Out and about last Friday Night with my little sister (excuse the horrible picture quality on this post), we went to a club called Vacca Matta in Monte Casino Johannesburg and gosh i have never seen so many indians in a club lol, but we had massive fun thou drank and danced all night, the theme of the night was hiphop mixed with sexy look and i just wanted to be simple yet sexy. My sister went for a peplum/leggings and silver heels of which she gave up during the night as she was dancing non stop the best part was bumping into my friend Caroline who could not stop hugging and kissing my chick lol. I love me some night outs its soo fun.
