Fashion Trends Lady in Waiting

No matter what a woman looks like, if she's confident, she's sexy.
PARIS HILTON



So I'm reaching my third post from this series. This part of the shoot, was one of my favorites in particular. Maybe it's the cute little dress, or even the pin-up girl poses, but it's adorable! From the entire collection of pictures in this shoot, this look is the climax of femininity. Seriously. From the material, light grayish hat, to the petite, impeccably tasteful dress. 

This was shot far at the end of our location, in de Zalze. The sun was shining, the rain has passed, and the breeze was light, making it a perfect Autumn day. I enjoyed this shooting in particular, apart from the fact that time was running out.

The dress department of Courage and Candy, located in Stellenbosch near that new frozen yogurt place, consists of a range of tasteful and pretty dresses, to wild and energetic dresses. I don't what it is about that shop that I like so much, either way, GO LIKE their Facebook PAGE! 

Oh, and do NOT forget to like mine as well <3

Enjoy the pictures :)

Fashion Trends Ready. Set. Rugged.

Literally fighting through spider webs and other scary critters, we 'bundu' -bashed through the trees to take these pictures. With Ashley ending up with a few scars, we managed, almost barely, to create these idealistic few pictures. 


This outfit is entirely opposite to the sweet and innocent spirit of the previous one. Visually, obvious. The high waisted ripped jeans complements the semi-sheer spaghetti top. Cute and edgy. The 'Cowboy' tasseled little jacket brings it all together, almost like a painting brings together a room. haa <3 Just add some striking red lips, and hey, you've got a rugged, tomboy look, with a dash of femininity. Oh, and do NOT forget those ankle boots girlie. 


During this part of the shoot, the temperature dropped and the wind's speed increased terribly, making it horrid for me as well as my model. BUT, we stuck it through. This outfit is available at Courage Candyyy, enjoy!

Fashion Trends Pink an' Pretty

The past two days were not the usual, long-weekend, lazy days for me, nor Miss Ashley de Lange.


Through these windy, cloudy past two days, we literally fought through the rain to catch the perfect few pictures. With the amazing stockist from Courage Candy, in Stellenbosch, we organized a semi-autumn shoot, this including my soon-to-be camera skills, and Ashley's naturally talented poses.


I introduce to you, the first of many posts, "Pink an' Pretty". Autumn 2012. Courage Candy. Ashley de Lange. This plain look. Invoking your inner child, in a fun and simple way. Yes, this may be a simple loose fitted top, and cute floral short.
Ever heard of the phrase "Back to Basics"?


Enjoy <3














Fashion Trends Tribal Muse

After that Notorious event last week, each of the guests received a little "gift bag" including a CD with a whole bunch of pictures of the new amazing Winter Range.
From evening wear to day wear, this range lives up to its famous expectations. 

Alexia Textured Ponte Dress

Estelle Skirted Mac

Alyssa Tassle Shoulder Fitted Dress

Pheonix Chevron Coat
Janaya Three-quarter Sleeve Bodysuit 

Navajo Pattern Knit Cardi 
Chiara Feather Print Tank
Lana Zip Pocket Pant 

Stripe Tassled Cardigan
Zahara Scoop Neck Tee


The luxurious evening wear, fitted and sleek, complements the glamorous coats - as an all-rounder - and the nomadic cardigans for day wear. This range consists of a huge mixture of patterns, texture and color, inspired from Central American Aztec patterns to striking prints of feathers, bird and animal skins inspired by nature. The key looks for this collection includes glamorous coats, patterned cardigans and blanket-style ponchos, winter capes and quilted jackets. Earthy tones with splashes of medium to bright warm colors. The collection even shows a metallic highlight here and there. The perfect balance between nature inspired and uptown chic. 

I've provided a few pictures of the new range, ENJOY <3
