  • Let's talk about how #lockdown is a big change in routine for most of us. Sometimes big daily routines changes causes the body to react different. Some of us maybe feel anxious and stressed, some may experience change in a certain cycle etc. For me, it's my sleeping pattern. Now I don't suffer from terrible insomnia. Occasionally I can't fall asleep or have some muscle cramps keeping me awake but recently my brain just won't shut off and I find myself staring at the ceiling at 3 in the morning, eventually opting to whip out my phone and play Design Home. And I know that makes it worse but after tossing and turning for hours I just give in. I also feel super uninspired and feel unhappy with all the work I've been doing. So I've now scrolled through @pinterest for some inspiration and taken myself into the yard for some fresh air and sun and my mom told me to do some stretches (listen to your mom kids). Also, I miss ballet fuuureal! I can't wait to go back to class once this is over. How's everyone feeling on DAY 7? 📸 @willowtuckercreativestudio
  • Some of you (@riche_s 🙄😂) have pointed out how @millky_tea is the same height as me when he is on his knee, but if you look close you'll see he is on a higher level rock situation. #justsaying Seriously though, if this doesn't put into perspective how short I am in real life, nothing will.😂 This month has been so long. It hasn't even been a month yet and it feels like we've been engaged since forever. I'm lucky to spend #Lockdown with you ♥. 📸 @willowtuckercreativestudio #BESTDAYEVER💍 #engaged #engagementphotos #wedding #couplesphotoshoot #fashionlover #fashionista #sabloggers #safashionblogger #safashionbloggers #affordablefashion #sablogger #southafricaninfluencers #southafricanbeautyblogger #southafricanstyle #southafricaninfluencer #southafricanfashion #mrpmystyle

  • Here's a picture of me doing an attitude and some other photos because I miss going to dance and I miss my @toynbeeballet family. Classes and rehearsals stopped a while before lockdown so it's been a while since I've had to point my toes, pull up my knees and hold my abs and stop breaking my wrists😅👯. So for now I'll just be watching dance videos and tagging my dance family and trying get my lazy ass up to do some stretching and strengthening exercises. 📸@technique_studio_photography #balletdancer #ballet #dancer #grishkogirl #grishkoworld #grishko #sanshadancewear #blackandwhitephotography #balletphotography #ballerina #sablogger #southafricanblogger #ecblogger #sainfluencer #southafricaninfluencer #southafricaninfluencers #sadancers
  • This Curl Cream is genuinely one of the best products I have ever used. It smells amazing and gives my hair the best shine. It's also helped with Frizzies when I use it with my favourite mousse. I've been recommending this product to everyone. Even @millky_tea seems to like it. It's made him wear his hair natural more often! @mauimoisture_sa is available at @dischem_pharmacies #sanatural #mauimoisture #southafricannaturalhairblogger #naturalhairstyles #naturalista #naturallycurly #curlyhair #curlsfordays #salifestyleblogger #hairbeauty #southafricannatural  #curlyhairblogger #naturalhairblogger #sablogger #southafricanblogger #ecblogger #sainfluencer #edgeslaid #edgesonfleek #edgegel #sanaturalhairbloggers #sanaturalhairblogger #sabeautyblogger #sabeauty #southafricaninfluencer #southafricaninfluencers
  • Last week I had the privilege of spending some time with the incredible @jennigaultpe 💎. The international jewelry designer started her journey at a young age and is known for her work with @swarovski crystals and has now launched her first diamond range. ROYAL SAVANNAH 💎 Swipe for a sneak peek of the range. Thank you so much for a lovely evening and for my beautiful gift 💍. #jennigaultinternational #diamondsareagirlsbestfriend #radissonblupe #fashionlover #fashionista #sabloggers #sabeautyblog ##safashionblogger #safashionbloggers #affordablefashion #sablogger #sabeautybabes #sablogging #sabeauty #lifestyleblog #fashionaccessories #southafricaninfluencers #southafricanbeautyblogger #southafricanstyle #southafricaninfluencer
  • This past Saturday, @millky_tea and I visited @radissonblupe @amanispas for their Himalayan Salt Crystal Ritual - a 90 minute restorative and energising massage using warm coconut oil, unique Himalayan salt crystals and flowing massage movements for pure balance and rejuvenation. It's similar to a hot stone therapy massage but the stones are slightly more rough and occasionally you feel a slight exfoliation during the massage. I will have more information about the benefits of the massage in a blog post next week. It was an amazing experience and a lovely way to start our journey as an Engaged couple. Thank you @radissonblupe for the treats after our massage 🍾🥂. @amanispas is currently running a special their jewelry of Africa journey. The cost of this treatment is R900 until the end of March saving you R450!!
