We went away to the beach this past weekend. The ocean really is my happy place. For some, the mountains are their rock; for others, it’s the serenity of the open bushveld that keeps them grounded. But more me, it’s the water. I have always lived in a town near the sea and the thought of living inland is not particularly appealing. The sea soothes all the senses. From the saltiness of the sea breeze to the sound of crashing waves as they roll in with a calming predictability, set after set. The subtle crunch of the sand underfoot and the warmth of the arcing sun overhead as it makes its daily pilgrimage. Water is the anchor of my essence and the cornerstone of my calm.
The Toast October lookbook takes us on a serene escape with autumnal textures and layers. And water! Take a look at some of my favourite images…
