View PostWith the Sun Met fever slowly but surely catching on, it’s only fair we write up on the Do’s and Don’ts of race course events. I’ve seen the most when it comes to race course events, from the fashion mishaps to the impractical outfits (considering there’s grass everywhere); it’s easy to fall into the trap of being beautiful but very uncomfortable.
Let’s start with the Do’s:

Cultural appropriation can be defined as ““cherry picking” or selecting of certain aspects of a culture, and ignoring their original significance for the purpose of belittling it as a trend.

A friend of mine went to Durban not so long ago and she came back with the horrific story of how her wig almost blow away with the wind. She was by the sea and it almost went with the tides. Another lady on Twitter shared a story of how her wig fell off while on baecation and her boyfriend laughed like he had never laughed before. Ahead of the holiday season, one of the things I’m stressing about is which hairstyle to go with. I’m traveling with a group to Durban in a few days and they will not let me forget if my wig …
