Definitely one of my favourites. She really really didnt feel like being photographed. She was tired and gymmed out, and was walking through Company's Gardens with her brother, minding her own business. I dont know what the crazy woman wielding a camera and a set of questions asked her
but she agreed, and my crazy lady alter ego coaxed a smile out of Sbo.
I love the chic and laidback attitude of this lady's look. A classic dress that works as she's workin it, and add to that a beautiful belt, you've got some pizazzness a la Suid Afrika. And those beads? Man - when I think back 3 years ago when I first came to Cape Town and I got them on the cheap at Beads of Africa. Now everyone and their great aunt's grandmother is rockin em, and sorry to say this ladies but not with much originality. So all hail Queen Sbo! Dont make those strings of beads be a focal point; but rather rock some simple, not too thought through magic to work em new.
Courtney's Cape Cool: You dont get 'tude like this anywhere else in SA. Even though she was very surprised that I picked her for my mini-shoot on Kloof Street recently, she rocked it and I have to say I like the results a lot.
Simple. Street. Stylin. Hair on point, and large hoop earrings and Converse takkies (as we sometimes call them in SA) give the look an edge.

Yolanda's t-shirt and yellow hoop earrings caught my eye. We didnt find anything we liked in this furniture place, and nor did we drink any Coke, but her smile definitely brightened my day.

Some time back in early summer Modiegi caught my eye at the V&A Waterfront.
I thought her hair was bangin and also the top she chose to wear made her stand out. Outstanding style.
The flavours of summer...
