I love when brands want you to get involved and with the Stevie Bag concept, Rubi did just that. The deal was you that you could mix and match straps with whichever Stevie box bag you decided to purchase. They shared a few cute examples in their catalogue and the rest was left to your wild imagination. Love! You know I spent quite a bit of time playing around in store, combining different textures and motifs, even though I already knew what I would choose but it was just too much fun not to create all kinds of Stevie bags.

I went with the on trend leopard print box bag and matched it with some bad ass studs & pearls and now this is legit the bag I wear all the time. It’s a knock out, I feel like one when I wear it and I love that it’s unique to me because I put it together.

For this look I knew the bag would be the feature and so kept the rest of my outfit clean but with a punch of colour. I paired my latest cosy crop knit with my powder blue Dejour Jeans and popped on the sexiest winter booties, the Sophia Gusset boot, also from Rubi. These boots are as comfortable as they are sexy, the shape the create on your foot and they way the elongate the legs! This is a winter winner! [They’re currently on sale, so don’t debate, get your butt to your nearest Rubi] I finished of my lewk by draping my chocolate leather jacket over my shoulders and wore my Top Gun black shades, also from Rubi.

I don’t have words these days, this festive season I am so busy and hardly have a moment to myself. But I will share a few musings from a conversation I had last night with my dear friend, soul twin and gift from God, Keeran. As we sat in my car in the early hours of the morning, rain drizzling down, we reflected in a frighted awe about the quiet but evident magic of this year. 2019 has been the hardest year of my life, my world was turned upside down, I have asked God incessantly to make things easier and up until last night just felt completely forgotten and unprotected but I knew that this wasn’t true. As tough as this year has been an unfathomable amount of Miracle and Grace came hand in hand with the suffering. And for this reason I chose the word Bizarre for 2019, the magic of every happening complicit in the nonsensical harshness of it all. 

What I was reminded of last night was that Being responsible for your own rhythm is paramount, it is “rule” number one. When you know and trust in yourself this is where resilience is nurtured. There is no rhyme or reason to this life, it makes no sense and your only tool to navigate it is a true sense of self. Be courageous and choose your love, always. You are wonderfully and exceptionally made, purposeful simply through Being. Let your Love Live. Let go of the expectation that the gifts God has given you, both within and manifest around you; have to become something other than what they ARE. Let it BE. Simply observe; yourself and the moment. Be present, accepting and open to God of your “I don’t know” moments. You’re not in this alone, there is a whole powerful source of love working in your favour, if you don’t have the answers, let it Be. The answers will always come. Be patient with yourself the body always takes longer to catch up with the wisdom of the mind. Let it ALL BE. And love yourself through it all. It is enough.
