Fairlady & Stuttafords  Fashion Preview – with host Bonang Matheba

Smooth Jazz and a glass of bubbly to set the mood - great fashion and some fabulous tips is what the Fairlady & Stuttafords Fashion Preview was all about! The very beautiful Bonang Matheba played host to this amazing event and Chu Fashion Editor for Fairlady gave some of his top tips to ensure that you have a perfect party wardrobe this summer.

Chu explained that the hottest trend right now is “clash of the prints” and developing a unique style that resonate your personality – “don’t think about other people, when you chose what to wear concentrate on what makes you feel good”

Make sure to have some basic piece in your wardrobe like the iconic “little black dress” and then invest in statement pieces and accessories to complete the look!

A few lucky people got spoiled by Fairlady & Stuttafords with some amazing designer giveaways.

It’s the season to be giving!

Prints are HUGE this season – paired with a neutral belt or some shell accessories and your bang on trend!

Walk on the edge – shoe fashion this season is all about statement pieces that reflect your daring side. Leather studded heels are a must for every fashion forward wardrobe.

Dress it up – invest in some neutral accessories. Focus this season is on leather and all things natural!

Smell divine – complete your outfit with a perfume that compliments your look or mood.

Best Dressed!!

I caught up with FAB friends: Noelani Nel & Melissa Jane Somerset looking amazing!!

Hot Men Friday

 Jon Stewart

 Sexy, smart, funny, great hair, short, nice, family dude, Jewish, love him.

I could watch the Jon Stewart channel all the time if there were such a thing. And I kinda love that a certain demographic (not sayin') thinks he is the news. Love that! That's okay. Maybe he is.

 

 

 

 

This is long, but sooooo worth a watch.

Within You, Without You

Every Thought That Crosses My Mind
I know a woman that said, not necessarily to me, but to the world at large,

"Why would anyone blog? Who needs to publish their every thought"?

I internalized this, as I do everything, and gave it a place in my brain.

Which immediately made me realize if I published every thought that ran through my brain I would never leave my desk, I'd have to buy a Jimmi-Jane for over-caffinated days, have my meals brought to me, and I would lose the use of my limbs from nonuse.

I'm dangerously close as it is, but my pointy-point is writers do not write their every thought. But I'm here to guess that bloggers/writers have more than the average amount of thoughts running through their heads.

I'm also aware that I can have two (maybe more, who can pay attention?) thought-threads running around in my brain at the same time. This bugs me to no end.

Just one thought for one day from one woman.

I'm a Blurter
At times I will say out loud the thing that is in my head, maybe not fully formed, maybe not ready for prime time, maybe not appropriate.

At times the blurts are amusing. At times insulting. At times conversational. At times confrontational.  At times thought provoking. At times simply annoying (told ya).

If ever I would consider a mood-leveling drug, it would be to stop the blurts.

So - are blurts a type of truth serum? Are they simply done to self-promote? Done to self-sabatoge? Done to draw attention - wanted and unwanted?

Falls right in with the extroverted introvert thing. Draw attention to the fact that you're uncomfortable and not wanting attention.

Figure that one out and I'll kiss you full on the lips! Even if you don't want that kind of attention.

Are you a blurter? Are you thoughtful or thoughtless? I'd love some thoughts on this! Ha! Seriously, I would. Let's get inside each other's head for a hot second.

Schweppes Royalty Party

 

Schweppes hosted an exclusive invite only party at the ultra-swanky Taboo in Sandton. The Fashiondaba  duo attended the chic “Schweppes Royalty Party” where we rubbed shoulders with SA celebs.

With a range of fabulous mixes to choose from like Indian Tonic Water, Ginger Ale, Bitter Lemon, Dry Lemon, Soda Water, Lemonade, Cranberry and Tomato juices, we were spoilt for choice and had a magnificent time.
