Gumboots. Wellingtons. It's all the same thing.

Soaking in some sun while it's still out 


 Dress worn as top - Meltz (SA); Tank - Mr. Price (SA); Tights Mr. Price (Kenya); Necklace & Earrings - Mother's; Belt - Mr. Price; Boots - Rage (SA); Bag - some store in SA, can't remember its name.





Let's not kid ourselves here guys, there's nothing cute about a pair of gumboots / wellingtons... at least for the most part there isn’t. But it seems the time has come to invest in a pair or two. Word on the street is we’re expected to experience El Niño this year and a normal pair of leather boots wouldn’t quite cut it. Besides, I’ve had my boots {pictured here} for years now and I highly doubt they’ll make it through this rainy season alive. So, to wrap up this riveting topic on gumboots, I have decided to invest in a pair and if you happen to know any nice places I could check some out, halla at your girl.

Happy Hump Day Friendlings!

p.s.: Remember my post on the LWD?? Well it got featured on Capital FM's website!!  You can check it out here :)

p.p.s: shout out to Nkiro (Twitter @Nkirdizzle) who I run into last week at The Big Square! First time meeting one of my readers! Clearly she knows the deal when it comes to awesome eating spots. You and I were meant to be friend Nkiro.

    2. No, I know every single piece I own. My mother had some really cool pieces of jewellery. I raid her jewellery box every so often coz she has some cool vintage pieces.
