YouBar Illovo | A New Find

This is for all you beautiful Johannesburg inhabitants…we have found an amazing addition to the city’s nail and spa scene; YouBar in the heart of Illovo.

Breakfast From The Top | Ferguson’s Fifth Floor

For the life of me, I cannot seem to remember how I stumbled onto finding out about Ferguson’s in Illovo but all I remember was thinking “OMG – a rooftop venue a stones-throw away from my house – I HAVE to try it!” Joburg, as Sam puts it, has no respect for spring and has […] Read more…

BESTIES | Daniel Wellington and the Spruce Girls

MAGNUM POP-UP STORE | A TOUCH OF DECADENCE

To say things have been a bit crazy for both of us is probably an understatement: it feels like our worlds have been thrown into chaos and the whole ‘too much to do, too little time’ is holding true! Let’s just take a moment to reflect on the fact that it is now the 1st […] Read more…

Afternoon Delight | Tea Time and Carrot Muffins

Most people probably think that we see each ALL the time; but that actually could not be further from the truth! While we may speak to each other every day, weeks will often go past without us seeing one another. Besides shopping and good pamper, one of our favourite ways to spend time together is […] Read more…
