love BLOGgER We are 20 year old twins born in Middlesbrough, England but originate from Lesotho (Southern Africa) and are now living in Southampton, England. We started our blog in the Visit BLOG summer of 2011. It started off as a mini page linked to Nyane’s tumblr page where she posted pictures of us. It then catapulted into a blog due to the response we were receiving. People were intrigued with our personal style and the fact that we were twins, however our styles showed differentiation from one another. Nyane would wear more structure based clothing with an 80’s influence whereas Mpho was more into oversized and layering clothing. We’ve always been interested in fashion from a young age, we’d save lunch money given to us by our parents for at least 3 weeks before going shopping to find the latest bargains. Around the time we started our blog we were very into vintage clothing, so we basically lived in vintage and thrift stores, searching for one-off intricate pieces. The fact that everything we came across was cheap also had us addicted.
