I’m starting to feel like introductions are in order because it’s been a good two months *hides* since I’ve last graced the DearSolo blog with my presence. But in my defence, if you’ve been following me on social media, you’d know that the past few months have not been particularly easy.

Hello fashion friends, and welcome to this super overdue outfit post. It was actually taken about a month ago (eek), and it’s one of my favourite outfits, so I’m glad I’m finally posting it. I wore this on the 24th of April when I accompanied Nuzhah to the Label Collections AW2015 launch (which was super nice by the way – find them at The Point Centre in Sea Point). Whenever Nuzhah and I go to events together, we use the hashtag “#SoloxRampage” on Instagram, so check it out if you like 😉

outfit | patience & other virtues

It’s always pretty tough being told on every social occasion, “Wow, you haven’t blogged in a while…”, even though my response is always “I know, okay? I came out to have a good time and I’m honestly feeling so attacked right now.” So here I am! 🙂 But it’s not like I haven’t been busy doing stuff. If anything, it’s because of all the stuff I’ve been doing that when a free moment arose, I wanted to utilise it and just… chill. At least I’ve been trying my hardest to give you all an aesthetically pleasing Instagram page and I think I’ve finally done it. Side note: whoever told you university is easy clearly didn’t have DP.

On Thursday the 26th of March 2015, Spree hosted their Autumn Winter 2015 showcase event at The Cape Town Club, and I was lucky enough to win a ticket to this event from the lovely Malibongwe Tyilo from the Skattie, What Are You Wearing? blog.

It’s amazing the kind of things that will change in a year – and I think I subconsciously chose this outfit for a reason (photographed by my lovely friend Nuzhah from The Ramp Store/The Rampage Blog, shot on Middle Campus at UCT).
