The Instagram look Louw-down

Beauty and image consultant Francois Louw has taken a look at what our local schlebs have been posting on Instagram this week and has given us the inside scoop on what’s hot, and what’s not.

New York is doing our Enhle Mbali very good. I love this look as it really shows that pregnant women can still be sexy! This short mini dress in a very busy pattern is complimented with a waist length jacket that gives it a very chic feel, and it is finished off with yellow stilettos. Perfect NY spring look!

I simply love what she did with the different mix of fabrics with the denim. The dangereen in a slim cut looks well paired with the very light white cotton blouse and a light cardigan over it. Such a cool ensemble! I just hate those shoes… Maybe a fine heel would have looked better? Or a sneaker? Just not those.

Such a fabulous look for a funeral. A bit of overkill with all the jewellery…  Remember my 14 point guide when it comes to dressing to ensure you are not over-dressed. Always a fan of the classic Berkin bag!

Minniedlamini (Minenhle Dlamini)

I think Brittany Spears is back in town. This naughty school girl look will never get old. The fabric of the skirt is almost like an Eco-leather that is very on trend at the moment. Great look for our cold winter months and still look like a lady that loves her curves.

For an exclusive event like the Soweto Fashion week where the theme was black and white, this look was so chic and a well-deserved photographed look for the red carpet. Black and white colours are huge now for the next two seasons, mixed with a hint of a bright colour.
