outfit | surviving winter

I won’t even lie, my first winter in Cape Town last year caught me off guard. I was heavily underprepared – you see, in Joburg, when it’s cold, it’s just cold. But in Cape Town, when it’s cold, it’s cold and wet and miserable. I guess that’s why UCT has that (un)official rule that if the mist is so bad that you can’t see the campus on the mountain, it’s no longer there and school is cancelled.

event | don’t conform – punk & ivy x LEGiT

IMG_8445On the 28th of May, I went to the media evening for LEGiT x Punk & Ivy’s Don’t Conform range at the Rockwell in Cape Town. It was the final media showcase of Punk & Ivy’s range, and I was so happy that I got to attend (despite writing an exam the next day, oops). It was MC’d by Zizo Beda, and I also got to see a few familiar faces like Siki Msuseni and Anja van der Spuy (finally!!)
