Temo Mpodi is the Fashion and Beauty Editor for Inbound SA, Babys and Beyond, and Rove SA. She's never been one to follow the crowd - her style has always been unapologetically her own, which is exactly how she fell head over heels for fashion. As for beauty? That one snuck up on her. Temo's personality is as bold as her obsession for a classic red lip on a summer's day. Effortlessly chic and always fabulous.
