▲ Head on Design


Love these African-Chic Hunting Trophies! I would much rather have a piece of pretty white board stare at me, than the real deal. Head on Design is the brain child of South African lady Joanna Orr, which runs her creative studio from Cape Town. Some of the trophies are wrapped with leather and the latest projects are covered in artworks by local artists. Think I need the Jozi one for my house. We don't have ANYTHING on our walls yet, but these are definitely worthy :) So... how much are these babies?

▲ Picture Cape Town #1


Here's a few snapshots of our recent long weekend in Cape Town. Once again we had to ask ourselves the very important question: "Why oh why don't we live here?" We still don't have an answer to that, but we're working on the problem. Jozi, New York, Cape Town, that seems like an exciting route to take :) Lets make it happen!

▲ Time for new hair


It's time for me to change my hair a bit and I think this is what I'm going to do. I love Ellie Gouldings' undercut. It's so pretty and now I want it too <3 Not too sure if I can do the fringe again, but I'll see when I get there. My appointment is only in a few weeks, but I will show you what it looks like :) Excited!
