Weekend Special


For all you Capetonian Fashion lovers, you MUST MUST MUST go and check out David Wests new store 'Weekend Special' at 304 Albert Street, Woodstock. The changing room is uber trendy and the decor so unique.
MY fav's are a Pink structured jacket and his crisp white shirt with chain detailing on the collar - so yummy!

My favourite outfit for the day

When i was in London last , I fell in love with a fully slashed LBD I saw a woman wearing in Topshop - it was ammaaazing- anyway I was too shy to ask her where it was from (she was hectic) but on my last day I had a quick run around Selfridges for OPI nail varnishes and there it was! AAAAh Pity I'de run out of money - biggest shopping regret eveeer!

Stylish Power Couple

God I love their style - Model/rockstar Power Couple Sean Lennon (son of Yoko and the late John Lennon) and Charlotte Kemp Muhl definitely love the camera as much as it loves them. High flyer's of what i like to call the Boom Boom Party generation this hippy-chic team has to be my absolute favourite in the fierce competition for the It Couple on the It scene!

Style Muse Leigh Lezark









Uber seriouse, Uber stylish IT girl Leigh Lezark ( D.J from MisShapes) has been making major waves in the fashion industry of late. Always spotted front row and centre - whether with celebs or at fashion week - she has been compared to the likes of a young Anna Wintour - often equipt with oversized sunnies, never smiling and devoid of even the slightest turn of the head down the runway.


P.S - Did I mention she is Matthew Williamsons muse - I just love her attitude- so young, so angry... so chic!

Keeping it in the family


The Gorgeouse Georgia May Jagger appears to be on a winning ticket right now. She has just been confirmed, via her rep, as the new face of Versace's spring 2010 campaign - oo I just love her!

"We are delighted that Georgia is following the foot steps of her mother who did Versace with Avedon. She was thrilled to be working with Donatella and Mario [Testino] and to be bringing it through to a new generation".

Love Love Love


If you’d have told us a year ago we’d be channeling the style of Vivian in Pretty Woman, we’d have laughed our heads off. But it’s official; the over-the-knee boot is the hero shoe of the season.

Rule of...Toe


Ok so Tomorrow is the launch of Jimmy Choo's line for H & M and we can only BEGIN to imagine the madness that will ensue when those doors open tomorrow morning - biting, scratching, hair pulling uuuh i don't want to think about it. Well to avoid such mayhem - here's a laugh for you - there are rules! so funny... yet soo necessary. Here it is - I had to chuckle.


WHAT DO I DO IF I ARRIVE BEFORE OPENING HOURS?
If there is a line, please wait in line and H&M store staff will
inform you about how to shop.

HOW DOES THE QUEUING SYSTEM WORK?
The first 160 people in line will receive a bracelet; on the bracelet you will be given a specific time for shopping in our designated area. When your time has come, we will let you into the designated area to shop.


After about two hours we will also open up the designated area for all of our customers.

To make sure as many customers as possible are able to buy from the Jimmy Choo for H&M collection, we have a limitation. Every customer has a limitation of buying maximum one per product, i.e. not more than one size (shoes/garments) or piece (accessories) per product per customer.

If you cant afford Chanel.... make your own

On street - New York City


Its In the Bag


mmm - Now thats my kind of girl!
