GIMME A BREAK - Preferably March Break.
And 5 more sandals to pack.
That’s right, we’re talking about Spring Break 2019. The countdown has never felt so close - and boy, have we earned it! Tick tock tick tock.
March Break is quickly approaching, so whether you’re travelling to a faraway destination or planning the staycation of a lifetime, it’s going to be a busy week of bucket list #goals. Relax, chill out, and laugh lots. Beat the winter blues and get sandy toes, salty hair, and bubble baths galore.
Our motto this break? The words we’re currently living by?
It’s time to trade in your snow boots for sandals and get your toes polished. After all, cute outfits always start from the ground up. MALVADOS loves a good vacay. Tag us in your pics and mention us in your posts. We live for a good sandal selfie.
Stay warm and keep cool! We’ll be thinking about you!
With 2018 in the past, we can forget about that unused gym membership, the healthy living diet we planned on sticking to, and the good intentions we had in being money conscious. The motivation you had last January quickly turns into snoozing your alarm and spending 10 more minutes in bed from February onwards.
No more feeling sorry for ourselves: we’re declaring 2019 the year to dream big and run wild. With 365 new days filled with unlimited opportunities, our 2019 adventure will be free of regret and full of YOLO moments!
This year MALVADOS is all about keeping things real, being spontaneous in our adventures, and staying true to ourselves. Instead of simply talking about the road trip of your dreams, MALVADOS will be watching and waiting for you to book the motels and hop in the driver’s seat. Rather than dreaming of going to Coachella with your besties, MALVADOS will be snug in your suitcase ready to attend the oncein-a-lifetime outdoor festival. This year, MALVADOS is taking control of life and living it to the fullest.
Welcome to October: a month where candy sales soar, horror flicks play on repeat, and you find yourself ordering pumpkin flavoured everything. A month where spiderwebs and skulls are the “it” home accessory, where blood is the sought after makeup, and where people get the chance to dress up as someone they’re not.
Beware: MALVADOS is taking on a new approach to the fright-night fun. Join us in embracing the whimsical side while looking chillingly chic. We’re keeping it real, and making the candy hunt one to remember. Bow down, witches. Let’s get this party startled.
MALVADOS knows, dressing up as a celeb and taking on their persona for a couple of hours makes for an epic #OOTD on insta. We get the Halloween hype - it’s fun, it’s scary, and there’s a constant thrill and adrenaline rush. It’s the perfect chance to find your boo and put on your resting witch face. But, getting kissed by a vampire is a pain in the neck, and so is trying to be someone you’re not. Rather than becoming someone so completely unrecognizable, throw on a pair of MALVADOS with your costume to keep the inner you alive.
With everyone so dressed up, be the you that you’ve always wanted to be. Show the world the free-spirited, adventurer, born-to-be-wild side. Halloween is the holiday of all things frightening, so what better time to face your fears and be the you you’ve always wanted to let out? You’re boo-tiful inside and out, so no nerves necessary. Take a deep breath, keep calm and carry a wand.
MALVADOS encourages exploration and expression. After all, the best costume is the one you’re most confident in! Trick or treat yo’self to a pair of MALVADOS this Halloween for the ultimate fashion statement. If the broom fits, fly it. Oops, I mean: if the shoe fits, wear it. Happy Halloween!
What do you get when thousands of people travel to be in a desert full of music, fashion, parties, and food over a 2 weekend span? One of the most popular festivals for the wild at heart, adventure-chasing gypsies: Coachella.
It’s that time of the year again, and festival season has officially arrived. With a killer lineup and meticulously crafted outfits, anything goes. The ultimate boho chic playground with Instagram pics like never before - on a scale from 0 to 100, how “Coachella” are you?! MALVADOS has put together an epic Coachella bucket list to make this festival season off the charts!
A Ride Of Passage The ferris wheel is an iconic site that gives festival goers #views of everything. The Coachella carnival ride is legendary. Whether you go for a ride or a take a pic with the fully functional ferris wheel in the background - you’re making history.
Paparazzi Pics This slice of paradise wouldn’t be complete without some celeb stalking, which isn’t hard to do at star-studded Coachella. Have your camera ready to snap some shots, but remember to keep it cool. Ask to take their pics rather than being a total creeper. Stars, they’re just like us…right?
Beyond The Festival Grab your flamingo float and make a splash at one of the many Coachella pool parties! With a drink in hand and a DJ spinning nearby, this mini festival will have you living the Coachella dream at a discounted admission fee. Advice: remember your inflatables! Whatever it may be; swan, unicorn, flamingo - it’s your most important accessory.
Squad Goals If you didn’t post to Instagram and story on Snapchat, were you really even there? MALVADOS is giving you permission to be that person who #cantstop #wontstop posting! You Only Live Once, so grab your squad, take some pics, and let your friends at home live vicariously through you and your #squadgoals group.
Every festival has a story, and MALVADOS wants to hear yours!

What is the most embarrassing thing / moment you’ve ever experienced on set or at a shoot? Wow, I feel like there has been so many haha. I think the worst is when someone knows who you are and they start asking you personal questions and when you start answering their flash goes off when trying to record a video without my knowledge.
Hmm naughty confession ?! I think the best would have to be, well, let's just say that epic scene in ‘Wolf of Wallstreet’ with Leo & Margrot laying on the bed of cash. Did that.
Favorite Tragic pick up line?
What's the name of a reality show about your life?
Don’t know any musicians with reality shows so I’m gonna have to go with ‘Keeping up with the Kardashians’ because my family and I have no filter but are all really close and under a spotlight in our own way.
What's more important, looks or lols?
definitely not looks. my parents always make fun of me because of any guy I date. I'm really attracted to creativity. I don’t find looks intriguing.
What's your anthem at the moment?
If I’m at a bar and don’t have much going on the next day ill definitely just drink Old Fashioned's all night. Not much a cocktail drinker. Probably the South African in me haha.
Who inspires your music? Do you have a rock ICON that you channel?
Skrillex 100% . He’s the most down to earth, inspiring, hard working man I have ever met.
Where are you dying to go for your next adventure?
I really want to go to Amsterdam and check out their nightlife. However, I really wanna go to Greece and just escape for a week in the sun.
Fingers for eyelashes or eyelashes for fingers?
Eyelashes for fingers seems less aggressive and more butterfly like.
