Shades by Salvadore Ferragamo, bikini by Aubade, beach by god
As I mentioned previously, CTG’s styling and makeup gets done by Samantha Laura Kaye, aka SLK. Sam recently jetted off to Mauritius for a little bit of sunshine in the wintertime, and CTG got Sunglass Hut to hook her up with a preview selection of this coming Summer’s hottest shades and basically show us ‘how to do Summer 2011′. Mauritius is not imperative to the looks she’s put together, but let’s be honest, it will definitely help.

Sunglass afficionados, take note - these guys are employed to clean your shades while you're on the beach. Not kidding. That's all they do. Those who share the sunglass fetish will no doubt appreciate the utter awesomeness of that fact.

Isn’t it just all a bit much in terms the of ‘holy crap that looks incredible’ factor? Don’t you just want to book a flight RIGHT NOW? I’m trying to stop my mouse wandering over to TravelStart and booking myself an irresponsible beachy adventure, but it’s tough. It’s REAL tough. If you’re interested though, SLK stayed here for a total of 10 days, and I think one might conclude from these pics that she ‘had a good time’. Maybe.
****COMPETITION ALERT: Guys, mail me which of SLK’s outfits you liked the best and why, and you could win this pair of white Miu Miu’s for this upcoming summer. They’re not even in stores yet! editor@capetowngirl.com – go! You have til Friday 6 August 2010.

10 nights, 11 days… book yourself a flight. Right now!
I will provide a list of “holiday essentials” on my blog – what to take, what to leave behind, once I can tear myself away from my holiday photos/admiring my tan/trying on jewelry/having lunches with all the friends I have to tell catch up with. xx

Absolutely love the look with shades by Miu Miu for summer 2011, bikini by L’aubade, and – of course – the beach by Mother Nature. Bring on Cape Town summer!

Oh I see you want to know why as well – in that case would love to add that that look is fab because it kinda channels Katy Perry’s California Girls vibe – which is the ultimate in Summery awesomery!
