Where else will you be but The WKND Social?

THE WKND SOCIAL is on again and this time The Other Girls, hosts of this monthly event, are inviting you to Come and Play with Sunglass Hut at THE WKND SOCIAL in association with ABSOLUT Vodka. Taking place for the first time on a Sunday (29th September), this event promises to have a twist. Think savoury macaroons, craft soft serve ice cream, delicious bottomless cocktails, self expression, fashion and a 90s soundtrack to add to the fun. Good Food, Good People and Good Music just got better!

Tickets available online at Quicket.

Styla Gang x STR CRD

If you've read my Philosophy of Style interview with Guy Stylez of Styla Gang, then you'll have some idea of the philosophy, the background, behind the crew itself and its super cool designs. Well, Styla Gang Original Designs, or S.G.O.D for short, has just released a new five-panel dog pound cap. And this not just any cap...

Besides the obvious trillness of the cap, there are only 100 units of the cap available through pre-order (by emailing your name, cell number, city, and address to www.sgodorder@gmail.com) for R300 for nationwide shipment from the 8th to the 22nd of September.

And if you're one of the first 50 people to secure purchase of the cap through 50% deposit of the R300, you also get yourself a double ticket to STR CRD 2013. Now this year, there are no STR CRD tickets for sale, so only people who are invited (by registering on the website) get to attend the event. Good things only.

(And the boys from Street Etiquette will be there - Travis Gumbs! *faints*)

For more info on the pre order process, visit Styla Gang's Tumblr page.

New York Fashion Week gets me

So New York hosted the first round of the Spring '14 Ready-to-wear collections, and it was good to see that I'm not the only one still obsessed with monochrome, or all black, or all white. Some of my favourite collections - Hood by Air, Diesel Black Gold, and Alexander Wang - and even the fashionistas on the street, were all into the black/white game. There's just something about the simplicity of black/white/black and white that is so chic. In fact, these looks were my favourite from all of these collections.

I have visions of wearing all red though. Can we get some all-red ensembles at London Fashion Week ?

And in the September issue of True Love

Me! Haha. No jokes. I am in the September issue of True Love magazine. The gorgeous actress Terry Pheto's on the cover, and I'm on pg 54 talking street style and dressed in - you already know - monochrome! My favourite. Get it.

Out at Sprite

So on the 25th of August, we hit up Zone 6 Venue in Soweto, Johannesburg for the finals of the Sprite Uncontainable event. What an awesome event it was. A major shout out to my Philosophy buddy Tony for winning the MC category and an all-round fly, talented chic, Tarryn for winning the dancing category.

And my outfit - monochrome all day baby! Those leather dungarees are it! I'm in love.

And the winner of the Levi's Curve ID competition is...

After weeks of your interest in the competition, and days of your votes for your favourite, we have our winner.

Congratulations are most certainly in order to Kate Nokwe, the winner of the R5000 shopping spree in the Levi's Curve ID competition! Kate has also won a R2000 shopping spree for one of her friends, and they will both attend a VIP champagne-and-snacks-filled shopping experience at the Levi's store in Sandton City on the 16th of September, where they will enjoy their prize. As a winner, Kate also stands a chance to win an additional R10 000 Levi's voucher on the night of the event. Good news all round.

Thank you to everyone who entered the competition and to everyone who voted for his/her favourite. And even though this competition has ended, what hasn't ended is the opportunity to find out exactly what your Curve ID is and of course, find your perfect pair of (Levi's!) jeans.

Eclectic - that's how I would describe myself. From fashion, to music, to philosophy, to sport, to haute cuisine, my interests are wide and varied. I'm a 19-year-old journalism student who dreams of days in a plush, east-facing office, signing off the latest issue of a top fashion mag. Days of walking through the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in my gorgeous Maison Martin Margiela boots. My heart is South African but my soul is French. Onwards and upwards - that's where I'm going.
