#ECMeetUp guest speakers, Colours of You SA
One of my favorite things about the #ECMeetUp (or any of our national meet ups for that matter) is that it creates a cool opportunity for bloggers to learn from industry experts. I mean, sure we have Google, but sometimes we need our Google to have a face. With that said, meet the 5 (very good looking) faces belonging to meet up guest speakers, Colours of You SA. Instagram creative, COYSA, will be taking the stage to teach us how to get max benefit from the app. They will also share tips on how to take amazing pics for your blog and other photography related stuff. (Clue: there will be an…

#ECMeetUp: Hey EC Bloggers, check this out!
EC Bloggers, Ella and I are so excited! We’ve finally secured our guest speakers and venue and can now officially invite you to get your tickets for our next #ECMeetUp! Woohoo! Although this is a “mini meet” (think meet up, but like, Smurf version), it sometimes feels like we are basically planning another full on meet up. Bells and whistles included. We are trying to control ourselves, but alas. All the evidence shows that we are failing misrebly!

#ECMeetUp 2025 Photos
Hello. My name is Luchae and I am tired. Well, besides for the fact that my body still needs to rest after fighting that crazy throat infection; my babe is teething (it’s the back teeth and she is so not happy) and it seems that everyone and their dog has decided to take leave at work. Because of that and many other factors, I’ve chosen not to bore you with the extreme details of what I’d give to get a good night’s sleep right now. Instead, let me show you the wonderful #ECMeetUp 2025 photos taken at our recent get togetehr by the very talented Mo Firefly Photography. Elle has posted a…

#ECMeetUp: It actually happened! (&pics to prove it)
I’d just like to say that the reason why I had a throat infection the past few days might be because I’ve been “AAACKING” all the way from last week until Saturday afternoon. Why? Well, because we had just about the best #ECMeetUp, in the history of EC meet ups! (Probably, because it was the first one, I hear you say. Details, minor details).

Mother’s Day is for Mothers
Mother’s Day is around the corner (Sunday, 8th May, to be exact) and while I am aware that I am a mother (and have been one for a very long time) I have yet to earn the perks that come with a Mother’s Day. The simple reason is that my mom and Hubstopher’s mom is still around (and very much kicking) and so the Mother’s Day celebration quota gets evenly distributed between the two of them, leaving nothing but a Sunday school handmade gift for me (sniff sniff sob sob). Not that I mind. Those Sunday school gifts are usually very charming. But this year, I’m like, you know what?…

Creative journaling with the Inspire Bible {Review}
I love Easter time. I love that we get to celebrate the life of Jesus and how this period acknowledges his life and death to be real and not some fictitious story, made up and put into a book. There are so many cool ways you could celebrate this time with your kideos. I’ve recently spent some time celebrating with my Inspire Bible but I know many people opt for Easter egg hunts and chocolate parties (and hey, I love chocolate yo!). This is one of those times where I can’t wait for my girl to be a bit older so that I could explore the other ways of celebrating the cross.

#ecmeetup topics: the importance of social media
So as the 14th of May draws closer (yes, I am aware that it’s still March) Elle and I excitedly prep for our very first (and soon to be annual) Eastern Cape bloggers get together. The #ecmeetup has all kinds of wonderful things awaiting us such as the droolworthy brag bags and really awsome special giveaways (That I’m not allowed to win. Suddenly this job has lost it’s spark) thanks to our amazing sponsors. The #ecmeetup topics are also a great drawcard and we can’t wait to learn.
