Arum Lilea Guide: What to Wear to a BBQ


 Free 2BU shorts | Cotton On blouse | Sass Diva necklace & bracelet| Mr Price shoes


Here in South Africa we are enjoying the end of our summer and the long weekends we’ve been having call for summer traditions: a braai (a BBQ to all you non-South African ladies).  The thought just makes me all happy inside.  For these ultra casual fun days, picnics included, I love a pair of shorts in a bright colour,  a light blouse, a great statement necklace that isn’t going to get in the way of all the fun you’re having, and a pink lip.  I love these turquoise loafers of mine for an added pop of colour.

Black & Red



Levis shirt (similar) | Mr Price cardigan (similar) & skirt | Aldo shoes | Sass Diva necklace|


This outfit kind of reminds me of school.  I suppose it’s the preppy skirt and tied back hair.  I love incorporating great basics into my outfits.  There’s nothing better than a white shirt and a great skirt for a quick and easy, hassle free outfit.

Graduation Day




For those of you that follow me on twitter you will already know that last week was my graduation.  I received my LLB cum laude and it was a very emotional experience.  It was as though a chapter in my life had closed and a new one is about to begin.  I am so lucky to have the family and friends that I do, because without them, I wouldn’t have been able to do it. 

Arum Lilea meets Law Degree.  (oh yes)

Arum Lilea's Guide: How to Accessorise



I love to play with accessories.  Great statement necklaces are my favourite pieces.  Wearing one of these is such an easy way to take your outfit up a notch.  I’m crazy about anything rose gold so, naturally, my watch is this colour.  I usually wear it with chunky bracelets in the same colour or I mix it with gold or silver.  I also love this chevron pastel bangle.  Every girl needs a great cocktail ring.   My fingers are so tiny that I only have two that actually fit, but I love looking at everyone else’s sparkly ones.  Accessories aren’t limited to jewellery either – I have been known to sport a giant bow in my hair from time to time.  A bag can also add another dimension to a perfect outfit.  I like to either use one in a similar shade to a busy outfit or if I’m wearing a simple outfit, I might use a bright bag.

The key, I think, to accessorising is to have fun.  Play around.  Be bold one day and simplistic the next.  You really can’t go wrong.

Snakeskin Sunset




 Woolworths blazer | H&M dress (loving this steal) and shoes (another great steal) | Forever New 
purse (similar) | Sass Diva jewellery | Michael Kors watch

My favourite time of day is that moment when the world turns gold.  I can’t help 
but smile at the beauty around me every sunset, whether at university on my way to
 lectures or sitting outside with friends.  Treasure the small moments, right?
