Jerseylicious Style: Olivia

Im so happy to have Jerseylicious season 3 finally arrive. I love the show, and I especially love seeing what the Gatsby salon stylists wear each week. Here are a few looks from everyone's favourite, Olivia Blois Sharpe.




Olivia in London.

On the cover of BE! magazine. I love how soft this look is. Really suits her.

Trend Report: Orange

I have a feeling that this vibrant color is here to stay, we've already seen it in both summer and winter collections and lately, wherever I look, there's a hint of orange. Do you think this is a flattering color for you? Is it already amongst your favorites?

Angelina Jolie for Louis Vuitton "Core Values" ad campaign

Angelina Jolie is the latest star to pose for Louis Vuitton's "Core Values" ad campaign. A serene and sultry Angie (in her own clothes!) gazes off into the distance in Cambodia's Siem Reap province, a Louis Vuitton bag hanging off her shoulder. This ad was shot by world famous photographer Annie Leibovitz.



The Cambodian setting and "mother earth" vibe (Jolie wears natural makeup and her own clothes) is fitting for the actress, who found time in between making all those movies and adopting all those children to advocate for Cambodia on the international stage.

The "Core Values" ads, set to run for 18 months, will feature other celeb-humanitarians such as Bono. Curiously, the logo tote slung over Jolie's arm, Louis Vuitton's Alto bag, is a discontinued style. But Vuitton's executive vice president Pietro Beccari told WWD, "We are considering to re-edit it." Smart move.

Habits @ Cape Town Fashion Week

An array of sweet, fruity colours tailored into well hemmed suits which gradually graduated into billowing floral printed, colour-splashed maxis; let�s not forget thigh-high effects,halters and off shoulders. Effective colour blocking which suddenly disappeared and then it was an all white affair on the runway- knowing well that white as a choice of colour could be a hit or a miss, I loved what Habits did with the fabric. Again, the choice of colours used at habits were absolutely spot-on.









Summer Sets



Trendy, cute summer outfits, which one do you like best...? Preppy, boho luxe, casual chic or color blocking? We hope to inspire you!

Dax Martin @ Cape Town Fashion Week

Dax Martin nailed this collection with beautiful prints from pixelated prints to digital prints and soft floral prints of the Japanese cherry blossom. I simply love that he is adding something different with these prints. I was really excited when I saw this collection. As someone who sees herself in the swimwear design field in the future, I can really admire his work and take notes. Loved this collection! I would say it was my second best next to Gavin Rajah!

Leigh Schubert @ Cape Town Fashion Week

I love Leigh Schubert's style. It's always so soft and feminine. Leigh Schubert�s spring/summer colour palettes featured brown, grey, musky pink, nudes and muted tones in sheers and silks. The garments showed off panelled designs, pleats and colour blocking revealing the contemporary woman who is unabashed and proud of her figure and femininity.



Here are some of my favourites from her collection...
