//294/ Photography: Sea Point
//A pretty magical photo I took of Sea Point from Bantry Bay while I was staying there. But as magical as Bantry Bay can be, staying in the deep south of Cape Town will always be the best. Happy Saturday!

//I love any peroxide blonde, but Naomi Preizler with her dark eyebrows is of course next level. Here she is for the Nasty Gal Lookbook. I dig the sporty, somewhat ugly styling-super cool.

//So, this may or may not be myself. I don't really like posting pictures of myself but sometimes it's easier in terms of photographing convenience. Here I am at university looking particularly awkward.
//If you're wondering about my hair colour...my ends are peroxided!

//291/ Video: White Mischief // Katryn Kruger for KLUK/CGDT
Katryn Kruger for KLUK/CGDT
//I am quite proud to show off this wonderful video for KLUK/CGDT (not that I had anything to do with it) featuring the increasingly popular South African model Katryn Kruger. KLUK/CGDT is one of the bigger designer houses (if one can call it that?) in South Africa and they make truly beautiful clothing: take a look at it here. Apart from that they seem to be warm, genuine people which matters a great deal.
//I love the background song and the fun, silly approach and of course Katryn Kruger's beauty is out of this world.

//290/ Photography: Clifton 4th
// Clifton 4th, Cape Town
//It's a wonderful, crisp saturday morning in Cape Town and here is one thing you could do today: nothing, on Clifton 4th.
//And if you're still in bed....which I am absolutely not.....read about Marlene's H&M x Margiela experience on Spruced. I'm not sure I support these High Street x Designer collaborations either and I would most certainly not pay $350 for H&M, ever, under any circumstances. However, it is quite an interesting discussion: whether these collaborations are a good thing. While it might be nice for the person on the street, I don't quite understand why the big design houses do it...I feel it compromises their brand's reputation and renders the small understanding of luxury that we have as irrelevant.
//And on the topic of luxury: I am sad that it is becoming increasingly more accessible and therefore practically non-existent. An interesting quote by Costanza Pascolato on how the luxury market has changed :
"Luxury was something that was rare and expensive. Now a days, it’s only expensive because it’s not rare anymore."
