In celebration of National Children’s Day in South Africa, Pampers is celebrating single parents who bravely navigated lockdown parenting with little to no support. 40% of parents in South Africa are single moms. Though the last year has been challenging for most parents, it has been undoubtedly more so for single parents who spent months isolated from family, friends, and childcare facilities that would form part of their support system.   View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lisa | Content Creator (@onemodernmom) This campaign, called #MamaUyindlovu, highlights the unique ..read more

Many of you have messaged me to ask me about my 10 weeks with Best10. I went a bit quiet towards the end, well…because I had a little baby forming in my belly that none of you knew about. I’m going to start from the beginning to put the entire process into perspective for you, answering some of the frequently asked questions along the way. Before starting my 10 week journey, I had a call with James from Best10. James was my coach and personal trainer. This is the initial consultation you’ll have with the Best10 team before you actually begin with the program. The purpose of this call is ..read more

A Garden Party In Winter.

I recall sitting in bed on a stormy daydreaming about having a reason to create something magical. Don’t ask me to draw or paint you a picture – my creativity doesn’t lie there. But it lies within, brewing at the randomest of times. I finally figured out what I could create – a beautiful boho Garden Party with some of my closest girl friends for my birthday, which was happening in a month. If you’re an August baby, you’ll know how challenging it is to plan an outdoor event for. You never know which season/s you’ll be getting on the day. But I remained hopeful, and started to create a concept b ..read more

Winter with Cotton On Kids

Winter clothing has started being unpacked in the shops, and although the sun is still shining outside, and days can be hot – the evenings have started cooling down, and the chill can be felt in the air as the sun goes down. With my little boy being at the age that he is – 5 and a half, I’ve finally lost having my say in what he wears. He officially knows what he likes and what he doesn’t like, and dare I choose on behalf of him, we are in for trouble. What I love about Cotton On Kids, however, is that I can let him loose in the store and I know that I’m going to like whatever he chooses. I ap ..read more

Many of you will know that over the past year I have worked a lot with Cotton On & Cotton On Kids. At first, I was just excited and honoured to be recognized by and working with a brand I loved so much. But as time went by, I learnt a few more things about this well known and loved international clothing brand – things I wasn’t aware of before, and many of you will probably be learning something new today by reading this too. A few years ago, I volunteered as a teacher in a creche in our local township. After having taught in a few other private schools, I thought there would be a huge cu ..read more

A Magical Day – Create Your Day Party.

As a busy mom, as birthdays approach I find myself wondering how I’ll make all of my sons birthday dreams a reality. Luckily, my sons expectations weren’t through the roof this year, and he simply and very confidently explained that all he really wanted was a Bear Grylls Adventure Party with a few of his friends. Me being me, my imagination runs WILD, and I find myself overcomplicating things. I see everything through photographs, and become a bit of a perfectionist. Thankfully, I am an overly organized person at times, so I plan ahead. I recall visualizing exactly how I imagined the party, a ..read more

Creating a Visually Pleasing Wedding, SIMPLY, with Gather.

Let’s rewind back to the start of this year. It somehow feels like ages ago now that I look back on it. At that point, wedding planning seemed like a walk in the park. There was still so much time. Dreaming was happening, Pinterest was a nightly affair the moment my son was in bed and the kitchen was tidied. I recall sitting at my desk at work and spending lunch break after lunch break trying to locate everything I had in my mind in terms of decor. My google search history was just a   blur of URL addresses. I’d revisit the same sites, and leave once more without getting anywhere. That feeling ..read more

Warriors Of Hope – The Beautiful Initiative by Keedo.

I was recently asked to work on a campaign with Keedo. I’m sure that by now, you’re all well aware how much I love the local brand – I love them for their beautiful, childlike designs. In a world where we so often dress kids way beyond their years, Keedo brings us back down to earth. Their garments beg to be played and explored in. And just as I thought that my love for Keedo couldn’t get any deeper – they launched their Loenix Warriors of Hope collection. Talk about a beautiful range. For many of us, having a child with cancer is unfathomable. Yet, for the other percentage, you may have walk ..read more

Being the type of person that I am, I wanted to organize a girls weekend away with my bridal party. With only a few months left until the wedding, it was time to go on a little roadtrip with the girls to just relax and enjoy the calm before all of the craziness hit. When looking for the perfect spot – I knew that I wanted a place that had beautiful interior, as well as an outdoor area that would work for entertaining. When I stumbled upon Shiraz Estate Guest House in Riebeek-Kasteel, I immediately knew it was exactly where we needed to be. We booked months in advance, and as I told Kristine ..read more

There’s nothing quite like stumbling upon new brands and then finding out that they are local. There’s a little happy dance that begins stirring inside of me. And this is EXACTLY what happened when I heard about Beagle & Basset – a new Cape Town based eco-conscious company. I first heard about them about a month ago, and fell in love with not only their napkins, dresses and hair scrunchies – but also what they stand for, and how they go about creating their products. In short, they’re literally saving our beautiful planet one napkin and hair scrunchie at a time! How? Well they are pass ..read more
