So as a Capetonian you are NEVER allowed to wish the rain away, like ever. That shit is ingrained in us for the rest of our lives, however I am inclined to a little sunshine. In the mood for daytime linen sack dresses and silk slips to dinner, I guess this year the European summer has never been more documented on social media and even though we all know the reality is not what it always seems… summer is calling.

It’s been a tough two weeks tbh, starting your own business comes with serious ups and downs and I feel like the outside pressure ‘of doing well’” can be crippling. Especially in the early parts of building your own thing, social media is a tool used to help you market but can also give you ALL of the anxiety while you watch other people/ brands look like they are killing it in the game.

It’s coat season and I am so prepared to unpack the layering essentials from the storage. Do you guys pack away summer and winter clothes? I literally don’t have enough closet space to keep both all year round, but the mission is overwhelming and I wish I had an Instagram worthy walk-in cupboard. But the reality is I either do another sale/ throw out/ giveaway or continue to pull out creased crumpled bits of clothing that don’t even have their own hanger to live on.
