W R A P P E R L O V E !



Solange Knowles
Despite the fact that I wasn't born and bred in Africa, I feel and I am African inside out ! And I'm all crazy about African inspired looks. The beautiful prints, the touch of the fabric, I love everything ! One of my favourite items when it comes to these looks is the head wrap. Been loving head wraps since way back, I'm sure every African girl's mum use to rock these to church, most still do. But who would have thought our household wrap would become a fashion forward item. It can be wrapped in various styles, covering ur whole head or partially. Depends on the way you want it. The reason why I felt the head wrap should become a GdV item is because I got a lot of positive feedback from people on the streets when I rocked my head wrap. Mainly asking what shop I got it from and how much it cost etc.

C H A I N I T U P !

Been a while since we have updated  you guys on GdV items. We are still working hard on them and look forward to posting alot more of our items, so please bare with us.


This particular item is one I like alot ! As you can see, it is a layered necklace that comes in the colour gold. This type of  necklace is one I'm sure all of us have seen before, whether it be pearls or just normal chains. Its just one of those items u cant go wrong with.

With a necklace like this it is important to make sure that the rest of your look is lowkey, as it already draws alot of attention. Picture yourself with a tight hairbun, white tanktop and a bright coloured maxi skirt, adding this necklace to give the whole look a bit more character. Or even on a night out, rocking a daring black dress with this necklace to give your look a bit more ‘’umpf’’.  Either way you cant go wrong !
