A few of my fave things 8

The five items featured in this post and my current favourite things. Here’s why:

Sizers Shoe Sizing Insert Cushions

sizers

Sizers shoe sizing insert cushions are genius! They’re made of sponge and prevent heel slippage, reduce the size of footwear and are specially shaped for a comfortable fit around the toe. They are designed for women who are in-between sizes (I’m a 5 ½ ), need to resize their stretched heels, or want to borrow their friends (bigger) shoes.

They are available in 3 (colour coded) sizes:

  • ¼ Sizers (pink) reduces footwear by a quarter of a shoes size.
  • ½ Sizers (purple) reduces footwear by ½ a shoes size.
  • 1 Sizers (orange) Reduces footwear by 1 whole shoes size.
  1. A single pack retails for R149 (including shipping)
  2. A multi-pack (with all three sizers) retails for R269 (including shipping)

 My Camel Coloured Desray Coat

Des camel coat

What can I say? Every woman needs a warm classic camel coloured coat in her wardrobe. It’s just the item to keep you looking stylish in winter. I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect style for years, but finally settled on this one from Desray R1600 – in stores now. This colour works so well with white, black, navy and grey. I also love that it’s fully lined (the mark of a good quality coat). For more on Desray see www.desray.co.za

Dear Deer Satin Pillowslips

Dear Deer sleep

I’ve been banging on about the (beauty) merits of sleeping on satin or silk pillowslips – especially, as you get older. Not only do they leave hair soft and silky, they are also great at minimizing sleep wrinkles (yes, sleep wrinkles they are a thing!)

Dear Deer pillowslips R140 are made from 100% pure satin. They help hair maintain its natural moisture (which in turn prevents frizz) and minimize sleep wrinkles. Because they’re satin, they don’t absorb moisture like cotton does. And, as we all know, one of the many reasons our skin can look tired, dull and lined is because of a lack of moisture. Another plus? Satin won’t absorb your expensive night cream.

Dear Deer Pillowslips are available in black, white, grey, charcoal, Champaign, baby pink and fuchsia.

Vogue Colorbands

Vogue sun

Vogue Eyewear is so on trend at the moment. Last seasons collaboration with Charlotte Ronson (I mean, how cool?) really gave the brand serious street cred. This season, they’ve done it again!

I received my new Colorbands (pictured above) R1025 about a month and a half ago and have not stopped wearing them since. I love their fun, fresh and edgy appeal. The moody blue frames and trendy stripes on the arms make for an unexpected and dynamic look. What I’m loving most about the Vogue Eyewear brand, is that they’re making great quality, high fashion styles that are affordable.

My Kirsten Goss #GetPersonal ‘Pinny’ Necklace

KG 2 shell

Oh, how I adore my new Kirsten Goss silver ‘Pinny’ necklace R1250. Did you know you could personalise your Kirsten Goss jewellery? Yep, should the surface permit, you can now hand stamp bangles, necklaces and pendants. I think hand stamping a piece of jewellery not only personalizes it, it also adds character and texture to jewellery.
