This is my work-life balancing act as a mom

This is my work-life balancing act as a mom

by Renate Engelbrecht | Apr 28, 2021 | FAMILY, FEATURED POST 1, GODLY WOMEN, KIDS, WELLNESS

Apparently, animal print is going nowhere this sea Apparently, animal print is going nowhere this season. I am not sooooo crazy about animal print, but bringing it into my outfits with accessories will be my go-to this autumn and winter. Think scarves, belts, shoes or even earrings. Perhaps a leopard print mini skirt, or even a sweater. How will you be incorporating animal print into your outfits this season? 📸 @amanda_wiggill #outfitoftheday #ootd #ᴀɴɪᴍᴀʟᴘʀɪɴᴛ #fashionforsurvival #pretoria

Took the kids to @diekweekhuis_restaurant yesterda Took the kids to @diekweekhuis_restaurant yesterday to decorate their own cupcakes. They absolutely loved it. What I love about Die Kweekhuis: - Unique and really cool play area for the kids. - Slower food with the most divine sourdough pizzas and other delicious options. - Stunning gardens with outstretched lawns for kids to run around. - Other cute shops to browse as you leave. - Ample seating both inside and outside. - Pop-up wine bar for those who want to have a late afternoon tipple 😜 #pretoriafoodies #pretoriarestaurants #pretoria #proetoria
The recent Shanghai Fashion Week (SHFW), which ran The recent Shanghai Fashion Week (SHFW), which ran from 25 to 29 March, saw a group of South African designers taking centre stage, delivering an impressive showcase of design and fashion at the globally renowned event. African fashion is not a novelty. It’s culturally essential, while also being commercially viable. The collections showcased by these designers did not only resonate for their visual impact, but also the deeply personal stories woven into every garment. Boldly and unapologetically South African, the creations sent ripples across the runway.
