Give us a quick introduction to Carmi Wilmans?
I am a young Pharmacology honors student at the University of Pretoria. I always try to make time for promotions and shoots to keep a balance between work and play.

What are you passionate about?
I am passionate about many things, but top of the list would be animals. I love volunteering at the SPCA and have three lovely pets of my own. Taking care of a furry friend is a top priority for me in life.  I’m also very passionate about music and have Grade 7 in piano. Nothing relaxes me like creating art from sound.

What does being an Indian Motorcycle Vixen mean to you?
Being an Indian Motorcycle Vixen means I have a great opportunity to be a face of the brand, creating awareness and promoting their beautiful products. Its an honor to have been chosen to represent Indian Motorcycle and I am excited for all future activations for the brand.

What do you like most about the Indian Motorcycle brand?
The sense of style and class it brings to the table is what I like most. Indian Motorcycle is nothing but quality all around.

What sense of emotion do you feel when walking into the Indian Motorcycle store?
The atmosphere in the shop is very invigorating, I always feel exhilarated walking into Indian Motorcycle Melrose Arch.

Why should motorcycle fans visit the Indian Motorcycle stand at this year’s South Africa Bike Festival?
The fans should obviously visit the stand to come meet the Vixens! There are some nice wheels there too [wink].

What can fans expect from the Indian Motorcycle Vixens at this year’s South Africa Bike Festival?
The Vixens will be bringing a whole new dimension to the stand by creating an energy that only we can. Indian Motorcycle Vixens are where fun and class meet.

Which was your favorite scene in our shoot for this feature?
My favorite scene was shooting against the window of the shop. It entails everything that Indian Motorcycles consists of; beautiful bikes and babes.

If you could have an Indian Motorcycle named after you, what would it be called and why?
A bike named after me would have to be – The Nine-Tailed Fox. Since I am a Vixen and my favorite League of Legends character is also a fox with nine tails!

Tell us something most people don’t know about you? 
I just did, despite being outgoing and super social, I am a gamer girl. I love League of Legends and Fortnite. I might just be better than a few gamer guys out there.

Our kryptonite? Tattooed babes! Spend some time with the sexy Jessica Enslin as our LW Babe of the Week.

Full name: Jessica marié Enslin

Nickname: Jess

Age: 26

Hometown: West Rand

Day job: Tattoo apprentice

Likes: Lots please [laughs]. Chilled time with my people, laughing, and any avo and feta combo

Dislikes: Empty wine bottles, but seriously I hate judgement, people who pretend, fakeness in general, people who go out their way to be ugly little souls. I also don’t like sugar

Special talents: Creating a positive atmosphere and, well I can swallow my tongue

How would you best explain who Jessica Enslin is?
Different, genuine and real. You need to be alone for a little while and embrace it. Get to know yourself, and be true to that. Like I always say, wear it like armour so it can’t be used to hurt you (quote from game of thrones), in today’s world it’s so easy to get influenced by social media, and people, and things around you. I aspire to stay true to who I am, my personality, dreams and goals. Everything happens to you in your life to teach you something, even if it hurts. That’s how I grow, so I embrace my flaws and I hope others will too.

What era in history do you think best fits your personality?
I have quite a thing for 1950’s era, the fashion the sexiness. I think it will best suit my personality because things where a little less complicated with technology and so on.

What is your outlook on life?
That’s quite a question [laughs]. I like to be different, real. I’m very proud of who I am and still becoming. I think if you don’t get out of the box you grew up in you will never see how big the world is. My outlook is big, I love learning and experiencing new things, positivity is a big part of me. People shouldn’t be caged. You are your world so if you change, the world changes with you.

If you could be any one thing for a day, what would it be and why? 
My moms king of a cat. He’s a Maine Coon, is spoiled and has a bad ass attitude.

Take us through a day in the life of Jessica?
My life is crazy at the moment. I love the excitement of not knowing what’s next. If I’m not working, I’m shooting or drawing. I hop around a lot so I have to plan things [laughs].

What excites you?
Art in all forms, whether poetry or theater. Photo shoots to express emotion. Obviously seeing my favourite people.

In your opinion, which part of the body if the most painful to get tattooed?
It all depends on the person. My latest painful one was my hand, but lower back and calf are also eina.

How would you best explain the pain of getting tattooed?
Like getting burnt [laughs]. Sometimes linings are quite sharp, but some places are not as sensitive as others.

What type of guy does it for you?
Mmmm, well muscles is never a bad thing but as I have learned, looks honestly don’t mean shit. Green eyes and tattoos do it for me. Also a man, not a boy.

What’s the first thing you take into consideration when meeting a guy?
What he says and talks about says a lot about him as a person and what type of human he is. His likes and dislikes, if he’s materialistic and so on.

Naughty or nice – explain?
Naughty, doesn’t need an explanation. I’d like to think I’m a nice person though [laughs].

Where do you see yourself in five years time?
Watching ballet in Venice and opera in St. Petersburg. I also want a pug [laughs].

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Alternative? A choice from the ordinary.

Music? Is life.

Sexy? Tall, green eyes, tattooed. Sexual energy and humour.

Turn on? Men, not boys.

Turn off? Childish grown ups.

Fetish? Does your life insurance know you like to be choked during sex?

I am a BCom Informatics graduate from Tuks and currently working as a Data Analyst. I was a semi finalist for Miss SA 2017. I also do part-time modeling.

What are you passionate about?
Education, I truly believe that education is the key to economic emancipation. Although it is not the only key to economic emancipation, it does however play a major role.

What does being an Indian Motorcycle Vixen mean to you?
Having launched the store in January, it’s an absolute honour to work with such a remarkable brand. The Indian Motorcycle resembles everything that I am about, style, class and of course power!

What do you like most about the Indian Motorcycle brand?
I love how they hold themselves to highest standards of quality.

What sense of emotion do you feel when walking into the Indian Motorcycle store?
It’s absolutely impossible not to take note of the modern, distinctive styling and build of the bikes. You know that you’re not just purchasing a bike, it’s a lifestyle.

Which was your favorite scene in our shoot for this feature?
Definitely the one where I was kneeling down on the floor against the bike and there’s another bike in the background with the chains as a backdrop. I love it because I wasn’t sure if I would be able to pull it off as I was still going through physiotherapy for a damaged ligament. I was on crutches and a knee brace for a bit…let’s not ask how I damaged the ligament [laughs].

If you could have an Indian Motorcycle named after you, what would it be called and why?
Blondie, it was my dads nickname.

Tell us something most people don’t know about you?

Intriguing? Indeed. Sexy? Absolutely.
Get to know Cape Town based Julia Soderlund as our LW Babe of the Week.

Full name: Julia Sarah Spencer Soderlund

Nickname: Ju

Age: 18

Hometown: Pietermaritzburg/ Stellenbosch

Day job: Student

Likes: Travel, the beach, summer, adventure sports and dogs

Dislikes: Brussels sprouts, sand where it shouldn’t be, and cold weather

Special talents: I can ride a unicycle

How would you best introduce yourself to our readers?
I’m playful, adventurous and friendly. I like meeting new people and experiencing new things. Adrenaline rushes make me feel alive, and I’m always down to explore.

What are your pros and cons about being a Cape Town girl?
I have access to such stunning beaches and mountains. There’s always an adventure around the corner, but the cold winters and the wind aren’t my thing.

What do you like to do for fun?
I love hiking, trips to the beach, and road trips along the coast with mates.

If you could live in any city in the world, which would it be and why?
I’d live in Madagascar because of its natural beauty and exotic nature. If I had to live in a big city it would be Sydney or Bondi, so I could wake up to the beach every morning.

Where do you find inspiration?
I find inspiration in role models on Social Media and the role models in my everyday life. My friends and family inspire me to push myself and to follow my dreams. I also find inspiration in setting goals and challenging myself to achieve them, knowing that the rewards will be worth the grind.

What would you describe your lifestyle?
My lifestyle is centered around balance and achieving personal health through a vegan diet as well as lots of exercise.

What are you looking forward to most this winter?
Staying in bed 24/7, and maybe a bit of hiking and indoor activities.

When it comes to guys, what’s attractive in your eyes?
Physically: Hands and eyes. A strong body, but not a big one. It’s attractive when he’s adventurous and playful. He mustn’t be too dependent or controlling. I need my space and I want him to have his own. A slight chase is a good thing.

What are your tell-tale signs when you are interested in a guy?
He’ll be the first thing my mind thinks of when I’m not preoccupied or focused on something specific. I’ll make an effort to see him and to get to know him.

What is one of the wildest things you have ever done, and would you do it again?
Probably riding trolleys in a shopping mall, at midnight, at unreasonable speeds. No, I wouldn’t because I got arrested for it.

If you had to compare yourself to any cartoon character, which would portray you best? 
Winnie the Pooh. He’s goofy and clumsy but loves good company and he keeps his friends close. He also like to explore.

What is your idea of success in life?
Success is reaching personal goals. For me success would be having balance in my life and spending every day doing things I am passionate about. I want a family and a warm and welcoming home. I want to be interested in my job and I want to be good at what I do.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Girl friends? Days spent under the sun in bikinis, skinny dipping and wine. Lots of giggles and unforgettable memories. Road trips and crazy adventures. I can call them up at any time with any problem and I know they’ll be by my side in no time.

Guy friends? A good laugh and lots of play. Skating, hiking and days at the beach or in the mountains. I know they’ll always be there for a good talk and they’ll lift my mood with jokes and bants.

Hot? Charly Jordan.

Early mornings? Waking up before the sun and starting the day by watching the sunrise.

Must have? A dog. I could never live without a dog.

Secret? If I told you it wouldn’t be a secret…

We delve into the life of Vianda van Deventer as she features as our LW Babe of the Week. Meet the sexy Capetonian here.

Full name: Vianda van Deventer

Nickname: Vee

Age: 26

Hometown: Durbanville

Day job: Full time model, promoter, social butterfly

Likes: Animals, sunny days, having fun, wine and good food

Dislikes: Rude people and drunk people

Special talents: Singing in the shower, a race car driver and I’m a comedian all the time

How would you best describe yourself in one sentence?
I am a passionate funny extrovert.

If we had to spend a day on your shoes, what would we experience? 
I stay busy and try to learn or see something new everyday. I do something new everyday and not one day is the same in my life. And ,of course fun, fun, fun, good food and wine.

Which day of the week is your favorite?
It’s obviously a Friday as I get to see my friends and family, and have a braai or go away for the weekend.

If you could choose to experience the lifestyle of any rockstar, who would it be and why?
Ruby Rose. She is passionate and always herself, saying and expressing exactly what she feels. I like her lifestyle of having fun and traveling the world.

Having the opportunity to travel to your dream holiday destination, where would you go and who would you take with?
Definitely Bora Bora or the Greek Islands, and I’d take my best friend.

What excites you?
Seeing new things, destinations and experiencing new cultures. I also love fast cars.

What features do you take into consideration when meeting a guy?
He has to be good looking. I see a lot of people every day, so he has to catch my eye and make me look again and again. Someone who can make me smile and blush at the same time – it doesn’t happen often. He has to be intelligent and not think the world owes him something. He must be humble and friendly.

What type of guy is sexy to you?
Someone who looks like a bad boy but isn’t one completely. Dark hair, any colour eyes and a cute smile. Someone who is neat, has good posture and a witty attitude but not arrogant.

What should first dates consist of? 
Nothing too romantic. Take me someplace you’ve always wanted to go like a Greek or Italian restaurant. Always be yourself and tell me your hobbies, likes and dislikes. Good conversations.

They say Afrikaans girls make the best partners. How true do you think this statement is?
Very true. Afrikaans girls make the best partners because we have good values, good manors and we know how to have fun and teach you something new everyday. We say what comes to mind, I always say “plain, plat op die aarde tiepe mense”.

Would you consider yourself more old-school or new-school?
I am a bit of both. Old-school meaning manors and always have respect for others. New-school would be accepting most things that happen in today’s world like traveling, spreading your wings and seeing new things.

Leave us with some word to live by?
Always be yourself. Leave a positive mark on peoples lives. My motto is life, love, laugh!

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Sensual? Sexy Victoria Secret lingerie.

Arousing? A man with a hot ass and a cute smile.

Legit? Original.

Sexy? Long boots and very little clothing.

Feelings? Happy and being in love.

Winter? Snuggled up in warm blankets, hot chocolate, movies, rain and cold weather.

Full name: Logan Coleman

Nickname: Logs

Age: 21

Hometown: Johannesburg

Day job: Trainer at Switch Playground GRS, freelance make-up artist and I also do online diets

Likes: Fitness, make-up and nutrition

Give us a quick introduction to Logan Coleman?
I am a hard working, outgoing and goal driven person. I Put my mind to every goal and I won’t stop until I achieve it, whether it is fitness or career. I am super passionate about everything I do and I love feeling and looking healthy. I wish to inspire people to be the best they can be, and remember, it doesn’t happen over night – as long as you’re working daily towards a better you for you.

Your passion lies within the fitness industry. How did you get into fitness and what does it mean to you?
I had always been sporty in school and once I left school I felt something was missing so I started training and decided to do a competition where I placed 3rd. I then I couldn’t get enough of the feeling of being on stage. It means that I can lead a healthy life and I can work hard to change my body to how I want to see it. I have such a love for the industry and how your body reacts to certain type of training and how you can fuel your body.

What have been some of your accomplishments in the industry so far?
I have achieved so many things that have humbled me so much. I’ve won my division and my line-up. I have been featured in the Fitness Magazine and the Fitness Hers Magazine. I won my pro card at Nabba/ WFF and won the pro line-up. I have had an amazing journey this far and I can’t wait to see what’s next.

What are some of your favorite workouts?
I enjoy training legs and glutes. I enjoy squatting because it works all parts of your legs. I also enjoy flute kick backs as it targets the glutes well. All in all my training consists of weight training and incline, and now and then I do a switch class to change it up. I feel this has given my body the results I’ve been wanting to achieve.

We have to admit that you have an amazing body. Which body part are you most proud of?
I’d say is my glutes and legs as they were one of my weak points. I’ve worked hard to get them to where they are now.

Where do you see yourself in five years time? 
I see myself very involved in the fitness industry, in nutrition ideally. Also incorporating my make-up world and fitness world all in one.

What can you normally be found doing on the weekends?
I work in the morning both Saturday and Sunday and then I use the days to relax and reflect from the week. I will also train and spend time with my family. Im a very holy person and enjoy spending time with my family, so thats where you’ll find me.

If you could tell us something that would surprise most people that know you, what would it be?
I used to hate the gym and I wasn’t a fan of eating clean, and now they’re my two favorite things. Funny how life works.

What type of guy are you attracted to? 
I’d say I just like someone that is healthy and lives a good, balanced lifestyle. I wouldn’t say I have a type, just a good genuine person and I’m happy.

What’s one of the first things you take into account when meeting a guy?
I always look at their hands, clean neat hands are a must.

What advice would you give to anyone too shy to approach you?
I Look very unapproachable (I’ve heard) and I promise I’m not. I’m probably more shy than anyone.

If you could live in any city in the world, which would it be?
Probably overseas, somewhere like Europe. I’m not 100% sure but definitely where it’s hot.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Hard Work? Fitness.

Wanderlust? I want to see the whole world with my person.

Sexy? Fit chicks.

The post LW Babe Logan Coleman appeared first on LW Mag.

Her fine-lined body is absolute perfection in our eyes! Karien van der Wal has obviously put the time in and the results show. Get to know her as our LW Babe of the Week. 

Full name: Karien van der Wal

Nickname: Liewe Heksie

Hometown: Middelburg

Day job: Personal Trainer

Likes: Ice cream, chocolate, Freddy jeans and friendly smiles

Dislikes: Fake people and broccoli

Special talents: I can tie a knot in a cherry stem using only my tongue. Does that count?

Give us a quick introduction to Karien van der Wal
I love the fitness industry and competing as a Bikini Athlete in the IFBB.

What does your average day consist of?
Clients in the morning till around 9, then I go to gym. After gym I shower, eat, do a bit of admin and check in with my online clients. Lunchtime is around 2pm after kids get back from school. In the afternoon I usually see clients again from around 4-7pm.

If you could compare your personalty to any movie character, who would best represent you?
Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality. I’m a bit of a tomboy, a little clumsy and I always find the strangest ways to embarrass myself…. but I’m a strong person nevertheless and I can handle almost anything and get myself out of a sticky situation with a bit of charm and a smile. I can be a lady when its required [laughs].

What is your definition of sex appeal?
It has absolutely nothing to do with the size or shape of your body, but rather your personality. If you think you’ve got it, you probably do.

When it comes to guys, which is more important to you – looks, personality or manners?
Personality first, manners you can teach them and looks we can work on [laughs].

What has been one of the most defining moments in your life?
Transforming my body.

You obviously know how to keep your body in perfect shape. What are your favorite parts of your body?
My bum, although I still want it bigger, and my legs. I just like the shape of it and it’s also my favourite to train.

Have you ever used your good looks to get yourself out of trouble?
Obviously, all women do it..[laughs] Even some guys I know do it. I got myself out of some speeding tickets before.

What do you like to do with your downtime?
Whats that? I don’t get much of that, but when I do, I love watching movies with my daughter or going for walks in the park with the dogs. We have a very nice park with big trees and a pond close to our house.

Every lady has her wild side. When does yours come out to play?
Well I’m not the party type and I hardly ever go out for drinks, but when I do I tend to get a bit laud and cheerful. I prefer to stay at home though when friends come to visit.

What are your pet peeves?
When people are late. When people stand in my personal space in a queue. People chewing with their mouths open. When guys use the squat rack to do bicep curls.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Driven? Id like to think of myself as a driven person. It took me three years or so to get where I am today. It wasn’t easy all the time, but I feel proud of myself today. All I ever wanted to do was touch peoples lives and make them realise that they can also achieve a healthier and happier body, inside and outside.

Adrenaline? I actually love speed and fast cars, although I don’t own one, I do drive it very fast. I’ve done a few extreme things like bungee jumping and shark cage diving. I love things that makes you realise you’re alive.

Cheat meals? Theres no limit to this, but I have a soft spot for pastries, doughnuts and ice cream. Anything sweet.

Attraction? A naughty smile, wittiness, interesting conversations, respect and a caring heart.

Karma? Is a bitch, only if you are.

Flirting? Some people these days read friendliness as flirting. I think I have a flirtations side by nature and I don’t always realise that some people could read it wrong.

Take us through a day in your life?
Mornings always start with coffee. I head to gym as soon as I’m up and then go see my client’s for the day. Depending on the day, I would either be doing Microblading (semi-permanent eyebrow tattooing) or nails. I love working for myself and I’m completely mobile so I go to different areas in Durban but mainly work in the Upper Highway areas.

I love listening to the Violin.

I use to work on the Royal Caribbean Cruise liners and we docked in Mexico We went on a excursion to go swim with the Dolphins, they made me lay in the ocean water in a superman position (hands up and legs apart as if I was about to fly). I was super confused to why I was doing this, next moment there where two dolphins that lifted me up on the balls of my feet, I actually felt like superman flying out of the water into the air [laughs]. Oh wait, there’s something crazier I’ve experienced with my eyes – the Ping Pong show in Thailand!

Planned or Spontaneous? 
It depends on what you’re referring to. If I’m going on an overseas vacation I definitely would plan excursions and day to day things to see and do to make the most of my time there. A Spontaneous dinner is always a nice surprise outing.

What are your pros and cons of being a coastal girl?
Pro: The perfect holiday is on my doorstep.
Con: Mmm, I’m thinking really hard.

Do you consider yourself a beach babe?
Yes I do. I grew up at the beach, I love being tanned, feeling the sun on my skin and sand between my toes. I absolutely love the views of the ocean and the sound of kids in the background building sandcastles.

What’s the first thing you look at when meeting a guy?
How he carries himself, there is nothing more off putting than a man that has a huge ego. There is a difference between a huge ego and confidence.

What would be the first thing you’d do if you won the lotto? 
Buy property.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Adrenaline? Bungee Jumping

Scary? Spirits

Attractive? Tattoos

Messy? Oats.

Hot and sweaty? On the beach.

Meet Tyla Dee Nurden as our LW Babe of the Week. The fun-loving and passionate belter talks to us about her life, superstitions and more…

Full name: Tyla Dee Nurden

Nickname: Ty, TyD and TylzD

Age: 24

Hometown: Pietermaritzburg, KZN (originally). Now living in Cape Town.

Day job: Performer (actress, dancer, singer) and a Fitness Instructor/ Personal Trainer.

Likes: Going on adventures, eating healthy/ delicious foods, spending good quality time with friends or family

Dislikes: Tardiness, olives and getting frights

Special talents: Getting ready to go out really quickly (apparently most females take hours?!)

Give us a quick introduction into Tyla? 
I am a farm girl at heart (grew up on our beautiful Ingelsby farm in KZN), I have 6 brothers, and I’m fortunate to say that my passions are my jobs.

What does your daily routine normally consist of?
The beauty of my job is that not every day is the same, but on most days you’ll find me meditating, exercising, instructing, auditioning, performing, and seeking out quirky cafes or little adventures for some down time.

If you could ask your future self one question only, what would it be?
Will teleportation ever be a thing?

What have been some of your highlights of 2018 so far?
Going on holiday with my entire family for the first time in 6 years (there is usually always someone who can’t be there), and making the move to Cape Town in June.

Which day of the week do you look forward to most?
Sunday! It’s adventure day (if it’s a work-free day).

How would you best sum your shoot for this feature?
Body-Positivity: where one accepts, encourages, loves, adores and praises the body they have. Where one takes pride in their body and how they look at themselves.

What is your favorite social media platform?
Instagram, it’s quick and easy. I also love captivating images that come with interesting/ inspiring captions.

What two things can you not live without? 
I’m such a lamo but I can honestly only think of my water bottle, I always have water with me no matter what.

Do you have any superstitions?
Not really but I will never walk under a ladder only because of the song “Life” by Des’ree. I used to sing it all the time growing up, “Never walk under ladders, I keep a rabbit’s tail”.

What is your definition of sexy? 
Knowing who you are and fiercely, fearlessly and apologetically owning it.

First dates. What should they consist of?
Laughter, super delicious food and great conversation.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Adulting? That I need to contact my mom [laughs]!. She’s my live ‘How to to Adult’ manual. Moms always know the where’s, what’s, why’s, and how’s of adulting.

Curious? Wanting to know what the higher powers are keeping from us?! What have they discovered or witnessed that hasn’t been shared with the rest of the world. I am so C.U.R.I.O.U.S.

Attractive? Someone who is unafraid to be them-self.

Holiday? Camping somewhere amazing with my family.

Naked? A celebration of ones body no matter what phase of life they’re in. There is a unique beauty, vulnerability and story in nudity.

Flirtatious? Epic fail [laughs]! I cannot be flirtatious in real life to save my life.

Returning after taking a break from modelling, we’re extremely excited to introduce Chanade Andre as our LW Babe of the Week. Back in front of the camera and looking better than ever – we get to know the fun-loving, down-to-earth brunette below.

Full name: Chanade Andre

Nickname: Nades

Age: 26

Hometown: Johannesburg

Day job: Rental Estate Agent

Likes: The Beach, adventures , summer, food, Muay Thai , dogs , Greys Anatomy series , any good horror movie, hubbly, tattoos and socialising

Dislikes: Hot food, winter, cooking, grocery shopping and rock music

Special talents: No one is you and that is my power

Give us a quick introduction to Chanade?
I am a type of woman that doesn’t dream of success because I work for it, I set goals for myself that I take step by step to achieve. I’m very energetic, hardworking and I take pleasure in helping others. Whatever task is handed out to me, whether it be in my home life or work environment, I will always insure that it is carried out to the best of my abilities. I am a sanguine personality with my secondary personality being a choleric which makes me an extrovert that is self-motivated to achieve.

You’ve been out of the modeling game for a while, what was it like being in front of the camera again?
I was nervous at first, seeing as though it has been a few years out of modelling, but the moment I was in front of that camera it was the best feeling ever and it all came back so naturally. I loved it. I have also worked hard on my body through Muay Thai classes, so it felt great to finally stand in front of that camera.

Which scene from this shoot with was your favorite?
My favourite scene was most definitely my last scene, it was a real challenge to balance on that high ledge without having to hold onto the water feature, and at the same time be in heels balancing on a thin pebble platform, but on camera it looks like a piece of cake. I sure did get a work out from that scene, my legs were stiff the following day.

In your opinion, what are weekend’s made for?
Weekends are made for good company and spontaneous outings with great music.

What is your idea of the ultimate party?
That would be a party on a yacht with all my friends, traveling the Greek islands during summer.

What the first thing you do when you wake up and the last thing you do before going to sleep?
I thankfully am a morning person so I generally jump out of bed and get going for the day, I need one coffee in the morning to get me started. My ultimate first and last thing of my day is to kiss my baby girl.

What one thing can’t you live without?
My Hubbly.

If you could spend R10 Million on indulgences and fun things, what would you spend the money on?
My goal would be to run out of pages in my passport. Traveling is the only thing that you can buy that makes you richer. It’s money that you spend to give you memories of a life time.

What does your ultimate fantasy consist of?
My ultimate fantasy consists of everything a women dreams of, from just a little girl. I want to be a Princess in my own story called life.

What drives you?
Every morning I wake up I remind myself that it takes a really brave person to be a mother, someone strong to raise a child and someone special to love someone more than themselves. I have a fire in my soul and I wasn’t born mediocre, now with my daughter I have double that drive to make her proud and independent.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when we mention:

Sexy? Just enough confidence.

Turn on? M4.

Turn off? Arrogance.

Sweet tooth? I will choose desert over any meal.

Indulgence? Pizza.

Getting married, furnishing our newly built home and having cocktails all day everyday on our next holiday!
