Classique Fashion Guru Here we feature the most amazing trends in fashion. We caught up with the queen of fashion aka fashion gruu Noms Who is Nompumelelo Mondlane? Well Nompumelelo Mondlane is a chic , creative , benevolent and cheerful 28 year old from eMalahleni Mpumalanga South Africa, fashionably known as Noble_Mpumie and Miss Chubby Cheeks . I am a God fearing , fashion fanatic who is determined to break boundaries and pave paths when it comes to style and fashion.

What inspires your looks? My looks are highly inspired by my favourite colours, which are yellow , pink , red , blue , stone / nude & black , I draw inspiration from people like Eleonora Sebastiani , magazines , tv shows , my mood also plays a role at times but most of the time the impression I want to give that day inspires my look.

Have you always been a fashion guru?

I know this will sound cliche but YES I've always been a fashion guru , since way back in sunday school hahaha. I didn't grow into fashion / style . I grew with it

Are you a stylist and if you are who have you worked with?

I'll soon be concluding my image consultation studies but yes I am working as a stylist and I give rousing fashion and style talks at events. I have been working with different fashion designers from my home town but I work closely with Affrodity & Captured Style, this season I'll be working with TagIn & Street Garage I love how they do street wear , because I'm a girly girl its so great to be exploring the hip & funky side of fashion , infusing my view of fashion with theirs to create incredible style and I'm super excited to be now working with Lindani Ndwandwa from Lindani Styling. What's the the top 3 must fall things that people wear Fish net stockings must fall booty shorts at the mall or restaurant ( beach wear must be worn at the beach ) , clothes that show way too much flesh must also fall ,yes show leg ,free the nipple , let’s see those thighs but please not all at once and sunglasses with colourful frames , colourful lenses are chic but overly busy frames are not , I gave my pair away after realising that they make me look like a clown things that people wear?

Any fashion advice? I believe that style affords you the opportunity to say who you are without uttering a word. As Gianni Versace said, don't be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you are and what you want to express , so wearing clothes because a certain person is wearing them but you are not comfortable in them or love them must fall , find your style and don't embrace it Nhlanhla Nciza or Bonang (fashion wise) No I can't choose between the two though most of the time I'm a bonang, I do have my Nhlanhla Nciza days

What should we expect from you before the end of the year? GREAT things , nothing but Great things. I would love to tell but I've learnt not to share things until they are written in stone
