There are some big (and small) cities across South Africa. And, along with different accents, each one has its own signature style. With influencers being tastemakers, it makes sense to look to local content creators to see what’s trending when it comes to style in their area.
Want winter style advice? Here’s what these influencers in five cities will be wearing this season.
1. Cape Town: @leah.degois
The Mother City is known for its famous mountain and laid-back approach to life. So it’s no surprise that influencers in Cape Town are fully embracing flower power and a chilled-out bohemian style. Make a chic nod to nature by adding floral features to your outfit through accessories, such as these daisy charm earrings from Pina Jewels.
Dress, jacket and ring from Cotton On; boots from Aldo; bag from H&M.

2. Joburg: @kimjayde
If you want to stand out in the City of Gold, you’ve got to look on point. And you can do it by making brave, bold outfit choices. A two-piece satin ensemble in a bright, trending shade is sleek and sexy and will ensure you stand out. We recommend going bold in this green satin suit from The Fix.
Heels and Louis Vuitton bag from The FLIPP.
3. Durban: @taylalerena
With nice weather all year round and a phenomenal coastline, the people of Durban like to keep things casual. Because you never know when you’ll be hitting the beach! Colour denims in playful shades and a relaxed fit can be dressed up or down to suit any occasion. Be a pastel dream in these lilac jeans from Cotton On.

4. Pretoria: @juss_stella
More lowkey than the big city, influencers in Pretoria know that you don’t need to go full glam to make a style statement. Rock the suburban chill look by combining a t-shirt, mini skirt and a grungy overshirt with some high-end boots and a shoulder bag, like these green knee-high boots from Aldo.
Shirt from Foschini; skirt from MRP; bag from The FLIPP.
5. Port Elizabeth: @sayladean
Known for being both windy and friendly, the people of PE aren’t as extra as their bigger city counterparts. This is probably why their influencers have perfected back-to-basics looks. We’re talking a simple shirt dress paired with knee-high boots, elevated with carefully-curated accessories. Get a one-piece look with this oversized shirt from The FLIPP.
