My investigation into the world of the student model. 

Kloof Street Collections, SS12

I am overwhelmingly delighted to present to you the first fashion editorial in the history of UCT's official VARSITY newspaper - styled by yours truly.

We took a walk down Cape Town's most stylish street, Kloof, and shot the spring collections from all the best stores including renowned SA designer Stefania Morland and the UK high-street giant TopShop (above).

With photography from the amazing Sven Kristian, modelling talent from Hannah MacMillian and Hugo McLachlan, and my super amazing crazy awesome fashion assistant Barbara Fourie AKA Wedding Head, I think we managed to pull off quite a good one.

My Fashion Footprint

On Tuesday the new ELLE interns came to upper campus to do street style pics and hit the jackpot: my Art History tutorial class. See me (I'm totes flattered), my peers, and other stylish people on ELLE's new street style post HERE.


I've also just published a new Web Fashion article for Varsity newspaper. This one, a guide to Cape Town city style, was a group effort from the art students and the fashion writers - yours truly included. See it HERE.

I Got Published

At VARSITY, the official student newspaper of the University of Cape Town, I have been given the unofficial title of Web Fashion Coordinator. This means that I'm in charge or producing all the fashion related stories for the paper's website. I've got some really cool projects in the pipeline at the moment, but until they're ready for public consumption here are my works so far.

First, a review on London Fashion Week, AW12. My intense enthusiasm for LFW is no secret... so click HERE to feel the love.

And then there is the winter fashion TREND GUIDE: the the lovely Alicia Okeyo wrote the article about how to wear an outfit to suit your personal style, and I edited the fashion part. Although my name isn't actually on this one, it really was me. I'd swear it on a Prada SS12 shoe. (and if you've read this blod at all you'll recognise my tone on the image captions)

I do hope you enjoy them. I'm working on more - and loving every second of it.
