This Christmas, we’re steering away from garish red and gold palettes and gaudy smiling Santas (don’t get us wrong, these are fun too) and trying something a little different in the bush. We’ve looked at inspiration from all over the world, and it’s wonderful to see how many foreign style elements work so well in an African setting.
Whether it’s sweets or savouries, carrot cake or koeksisters, some of Africa’s safari lodges have a knack for putting on the most delicious high tea spreads in the wildest locations. If you love high tea is much as we do, you’ll want to know which lodges do it best.
We’re thrilled to be collaborating with Kim Gray this month. Kim is a South African who runs her own fashion, decor, travel and lifestyle blog.
As our Guest Editor, she handpicks her safari inspired favourites throughout September.
