Cinnamon Boutique – Yolanda Klopper Alazraki
Sitting Pretty
Many will know Yolande from The Daily Bread however her big love is fashion. She has recently opened a beautiful store called Cinnamon Boutique in Hermanus which has hand selected items of clothing and accessories from local designers and international fashion houses.
Her clothing ranges from sleepwear, swimwear, gymwear, footwear and day to day outfits in a multitude of colours, sizes and designs. Find her store in the upper level of the Village Square.
What made you decide to settle upon Hermanus?
I fell pregnant and Billy wanted a better life where we can spend more time with Alexi as our lifestyle in Cape Town was to busy for a child. Little did we know opening a restaurant in Hermanus will be more stressful. (LOL) we have however found a way to balance our lives here and to spend quality time with Alexi.

If you aren’t in the store what are you doing?
Working for Billy, my husband at the Daily Bread. I still have a small clothing section there for those who don’t feel like coming into town.
My fashion advice for women is…
Shop when you have had a glass of wine or two………you see better!
