STEEL MAGNOLIA A small business with a beautiful backstory, Steel Magnolia was founded on the idea that the beauty of being a woman lies in the juxtaposition of our soft and sentimental side, with the hard and resilient opposite. The name Steel Magnolia, obviously inspired by the classic film, was a perfect fit for the clay earrings that Marcel Swart makes by hand, with love. These clay earrings are unlike any other. The flower drops dangle and dance above your collarbone – delicate, yet edgy – and each style is named after an inspiring woman known to Marcel. The accessories are available in Windhoek at Family Care Pharmacy and Ostora in Omaruru, or by getting in touch with Marcel. Tel: +264 81 230 3677

Besides having a ridiculously aesthetic Instagram profile, Silver & Olive candles are trendy without trying too hard. They are minimalistic hand-poured soy wax candles packaged to perfection in reusable glass containers. Most recently they’ve added a gemstone range to the repertoire (for the chakras and such) while the cereal candle is understandably all the rage! Oh, and if you thought you did not need technicolour matchstick heads in your life, you thought wrong. Silver & Olive is here to make every moment a little more aesthetically pleasing. @silverandolive
