Hello Pretty is Winding Down

After more than ten fulfilling, magical years beginning in the good old days of 2012, Hello Pretty is retiring and heading off to the beach with a drink with a tiny umbrella.

Cream of the crop

There's nothing like finding that one pair of shoes that's stylish, comfortable, and goes with everything. This nude pair from Vosk is set to become a staple in our summer wardrobe - and, with every pair purchased, they donate a pair to a child in need. You can pick up your new favourite shoes here.

We featured this item in our newsletter this week, along with a curated collection of gorgeous pastel and sorbet coloured items. There's a new theme every week, so if you'd like to be kept in the loop, sign up below!

New things from Kallie! Get your Africa on.

I just saw on Kallie's facebook page that they've got their Double Africa necklaces up on their Hello Pretty store. They're in either silver or gold. My sentimental patriotic heart does a little skip for these beauties. My favourite is the silver :)

You can get the silver ones over here: https://hellopretty.co.za/kallie/coin-series-sterling-silver-double-africa and the brass ones over here: https://hellopretty.co.za/kallie/coin-series-pendant-old-brass-12-centdouble-africa-cut-away

If you're one of the ladies who ordered one of these necklaces pretty please send us a selfie - we love getting action shots from our customers and sharing on our social media.

Festival fashion

Summer is a-comin' - and with it a whole host of outdoor activities, including one of SA's favourites: Music festivals and outdoor parties. These beauties are one-of-a-kind and have been customised by hand. We think they're super cute and festival-ready - throw on some shades and you're good to go! You can get them from Chook Clothing here.

We featured this item in our newsletter this week, along with a curated collection of our favourite items to get you looking festival fabulous. There's a new theme every week, so if you'd like to be kept in the loop, sign up below!

A few more Girls' Best Friends

Shoes and dessert. Who could ask for more?

If you're feeling flush ($150 for flats; $250 for heels) you can have a pair of these all for yourself. Have a look through the fridges at the Shoe Bakery.

And if any of you go ahead and purchase a pair, we're insisting right now that you send us a photo of you in your shoes. And have a look at other customers' photos over here on the Shoe Bakery site.
 

Kirstenbosch Treetop Canopy Walk

Feeling sunshine on my bare shoulders has become a bit of a drug (wearing sunscreen, obvs. I don't go full addict), so in pursuit of my next after-winter hit of spring, I headed out to the much talked about treetop canopy walk at the Kirstenbosch gardens.

Cape Town played along, gifting me with the sunshiney-est day ever. It was the most beautiful weather (spaghetti strap shirts ENGAGE).

So FYI, it sways. A lot. Rumour has it it's supposed to, but just be warned. Once I'd gotten my sea legs I felt so privileged to be surrounded by so much beauty. We live in an incredible country you guys. We don't lack for amazing and varied scenery.

My only complaint is that the walkway itself is a bit short. Luckily we were spoilt for choice in the gardens, lazing around and dodging canoodling couples. It was a pretty fantastic way to celebrate the end of winter.

Ugh. Disgusting. You shouldn't go.
