SUMMER ISSUE OF WHAT’S
#ALLTOGETHERNEW
Summer’s here! Time to round up your mates, spin your favourite tunes and celebrate endless sunny days! If you’ve ever wanted to start a band, scribble a blog or give your closet a makeover, now is the time to do it! Tie-dye your tees, distress your jeans and hit the beach in our new-season faves. Here’s a taste of fun to get you into the swing of summer (as if you need help with that!)
rock the crop
Crop tops are making a major comeback! They’ll keep you cool, while looking cool! Pair a cropped tee with shorts for a day at the beach, or channel the 90’s in a bustier and high-waisted skirt. No matter how you wear this trend, you’re sure to be cream of the crop this summer!

JIMMY
CHINOS
Cape Town’s Jimmy Nevis is going places! Earlier this year, the twenty-one year old poprocker signed an exclusive deal with top American record label, Ultra Records, joining the likes of Benny Benassi and DeadMau5!
Jimmy, this year must have felt like a rollercoaster ride! How does it feel to go from writing songs in your bedroom, to becoming an internationally signed artist?
His journey to stardom began last year when he sent his first single, Elephant Shoes to local radio stations. The song instantly became a national hit.When asked what inspired him to chase after his dream, Jimmy says,
It’s crazy to think that this is all real. It still feels too good to be true. I’m just grateful for the team of people that have been with me thus far.
NEVIS
there was a hole in my stomach that no food, love or person could fill. i became desperate for people to hear my music. i was hungry for my dreams.
What inspired your debut album, Subliminal? The title is a reference to the various layers and depth in the lyrics. I wanted to almost, force people to think beyond the surface of the catchy beats and lyrical content. Tell us about your personal style. I like anything that is simple and clean. I don’t like it when things get too busy. Whose style do you admire? Kanye West is really trendy and fashion forward. What do you like to wear on stage? Well, I always wear the hat, the gloves and boots. I think that’s how people recognise me. Describe your perfect summer. A clear beach, close friends and family…a yacht in Italy... just everything! I want it all! What will you be wearing this summer? Lots of flip-flops, buttoned up short sleeve shirts and comfortable shorts. Do you have a favourite pair of shorts? Yes, grey trainer shorts. You can dress them up for a beach party or down for the gym. What would you pack for a summer holiday? Food, toiletries, a book, great music and a camera. No laptops and phones allowed!
the chino short We dig them bright! Take your pick from a range of colours.
Out of the Mr Price shorts you wore in our shoot, which are your favourites and why? I liked the black denim shorts. They are really trendy and made me feel like I was in a summer music video. And that’s a good thing!
i love that pop music is for everybody. i can be a part of somebody’s memory. pop music has that power. i’ve been wanting this for so long, i have to embrace it.
the fleece short Ultra comfy, these are great for lounging about this summer!
the denim short Do it all in can’t-live-without black denims.
