Right, so winter is full blown in Pretoria and Jozi and finding the right things to wear, especially for a Rockabilly girl, can be quite hard as most of the time you want to stuff as much food in your face and hibernate through winter so the rockabilly spirit isn't always there.
I tend to be one of those....don't care too much about how I look in winter because I'm cold, but I've learnt that just because you're cold doesn't mean your clothes or look have to be!

Nothing better to cheer my winter blues than Boob slippers |
All you have to do is find a few simple things that are easy to do and that will lift your mood, and make you look good in the process...

| Accessorise with a Skully scarf |
 |
| Rocking the office This adorable peplum coat, a great find from Mr. Price which is cute and affordable Just don't forget to rock the heels and finish off with a cute hair clip |
 |
| Rockabilly hairstyle which is quick and easy |
 |
| My Rat Rod Rockabilly hair clip <3 |
Or better yet.....make a change. Its a new season and as the saying goes "A change is as good as a holiday"
So that is exactly what I did.
A new hairstyle = way more fun!
And then you can always do a impromptu mini Pin Up shoot to make you feel confident and boost your spirits....sometimes the best pictures come unexpectedly

I have been struggling for a while to find my true self and I feel like everyday has been an adventure to self discovery. I have learnt to open myself more to new things and possibilities and I feel like I have grown a lot during the last few months. Trying new styles and new trends is always fun as long as you stay true to who you are and be the best you, you can be. Building up your confidence and your style doesn't have to change you, it just helps you grow as a person and be more true to who you are and what you like.
Don't formulate yourself to what others want you to be or what others think of you. The only true opinion is what you think of yourself. Be confident, be courageous and live your life to be just want you want it to be!
So hope you all are making the best of winter and life. Make yourself a mug of hot chocolate, add marshmallows, pop in a dvd and cuddle up!
Till next time
Rockabilly Queen
