O.live


O.live has been a favourite Cape Town lifestyle and homes store for a good few years now, with shops previously in Observatory and in Muizenberg.

Now proprietor Rupert Smith has given O.live an urban revamp, opening a glammed up new-look store at the recently-revitalized bottom end of Kloof Street, just before Buitensingel.
The stylish mix of new treasures and vintage finds makes it a pretty good bet that here's where to find a gift or home accessory that's far from run-of-the-mill. And if you're in line for a gold lame sofa, you've come to the right spot too!


Oh and (cue shameless plug of my own work) don’t forget to pick up some Skinny laMinx teatowels while you’re there (see below). Rupert tells me they’re selling like hotcakes!

Will definitely put this on my "Places I have to Visit" list when I am next in Cape Town!

They always have such amazing pieces there! I once bought a giant porcelain clamshell at the branch in Muizenberg. I wish I could visit the new store... -X
