Highlight of the ELLE shoot in our August issue?

Working with Richard Keppel-Smith. It was my first time shooting with him, and I was looking forward to it.

Leaving my family, friends and boyfriend for long periods of time.

Best part of your job?

It’s what comes out of every model’s mouth but it’s true: I get to see the world!

Favourite local designer?

Suzaan Heyns.

Describe your style.

I’m a complete tomboy, so it’s grunge with the occasional dress.

Sarah

Has modelling influenced your personal style?

Yes, definitely. I am surrounded my beautiful pieces and interesting looks, so it definitely rubs off.

What trend are you working this season?

Adding colour to my wardrobe. Colour is big this season so injecting some boldness into my wardrobe will work.

Key item for winter?

It might not be on-trend but a beanie or hat to me is key.

Heels or flats?

Flats for me, there is no question about it!

Sling bag or shopper?

Sling, it’s more me.

Beauty secret?

Cleanse well and don’t forget to moisturise.

Three things we don’t know about you?

I will be at every trance party when I’m home. I have been an aunt since I was 11 and I can be very OCD.
