MORE ON SOWETO FASHION WEEK

As you all know we went to the Soweto Fashion Week last weekend, here are more designers that caught our eye at the runway :-)

Funeka and Dejavu Designs was on. This show was good. We were wowed by the sexy women’s wear and the ok men's wear though we suggest this designer should stick to womens wear as she nailed it. The dresses were vibrantly gorgeous, playfully cheeky and colourful. 

Egnitious Designs. This urban wear collection was one with a strong youthful edge. Visually and intellectually stimulating, Egnitious described his collection as being “vibrant, with a mixture of art”, and it worked.

IT’S WHO WORE IT BEST WEDNESDAY!!!

Who rocked this dress better? Vanessa (black) or Julianne (pink)? Both colors are cute! Give us your comments! :)

SOWETO FASHION WEEK

As promised this weekend VeeDee went and experienced a fashion show in one of the biggest townships in South Africa :SOWETO: Wow what an amazing experience... If  you were wondering where all the Vibe went.. Well I can be sure to tell you it’s all stuck in Soweto! We loved every second of it!!!

Young Designers from different townships showcased their labels and we chose our favourite ones to share with all of you, and boy was it hard to choose only a few…Every single garment was done in its own unique and exciting way!

Now for our 1st designers from the Soweto fashion week:

PERFECT DELUXE DESIGNS:  A Bridal Range collection with a touch of Africa!!

The Perfect Deluxe outfits comprised mainly of African bridal wear, ruffles and leopard prints. The designs were not immaculately constructed. Perfect Deluxe is on its way up. Their creativity was well executed in their collection, particularly in a gold bottle-top tube dress that got quite a round of applause from the audience.

Let us know what you think of these designs ;)

Lots of Love

LOVE JESSICA ALBA!!!



31 year old actress, wife and mother of two and one of our favorite style stars!! Whether she’s walking on the red carpet for a movie premiere or doing shopping we always love the way she looks. One of my favorite things about her is that she dresses for herself and refuses to pick any outfit to please someone else.

We love the way she doesn’t take herself too seriously and dress cute, hot and fashionable at the same time. In the below pictures she is rocking an Escada bag...! The bag every girl dreams about….! Won’t you just love to have one of these bags...? Jessica is famous for having a whole load of different printed scarfs and these two below are some of my favorite ones. (Especially the purple printed one in the 2^nd pic)

And now!! For some of her best dresses this year:

In the below photo Jessica is wearing a gold Michael Kors dress at the Institute gala..Wow don’t you just love the one shoulder cut and the tight waist giving her the perfect hour glass shape.



The next dress is the one that left a lot of people speechless; this dress was done by Gucci and worn to the Golden Globes. Love the color, detail and everything else about this dress!! This is definitely one of my favorites dresses worn at the Golden Globes so far.

The below outfit is soooo cute and we just had to share it with you!!! To get the below outfit you just need:

1.       Denim Jacket

2.       Black/White shoulder dress

3.       Black Stockings

4.       Ankle booties

5.       Big black hand bag



Thanks for stopping by!!!!

WHAT TO WEAR IN THE OFFICE THIS WINTER

We all love to dress up when going to work, however its not always easy to just put together an outfit that will look hot and professional.  Then  at the same time you don’t want to stick to wearing the same things over and over again, so here are a few tips on how you can play around with your formal wear this winter:

***Black Pants (a must have for the winter)

These are awesome because you can wear them with anything and your outfit will still look fab,

Pair them with a nice shirt, short sleeve or long sleeve and a liltle detailed belt and heels to make it look bold! Because as we all know black and white will never be out of fashion.

***Winter knit dresses

How hot are these, personally  we are suckers for dresses, whether summer/spring or winter give us a dress and we’ll  work it for you.

Pair the dresses  with stockings, warm legging, high open heels, nice long boots or even crepe boots! And a buckle waist belt will be a show stopper….. almost anything goes with these dresses. Love them!!!!

***The thing you should go for this winter is Color!

We love this blue theme for the below outfit especially the cute blue bag...

**Go fot Stripes like the below stripe dress and wear it with tight fit jeans and those cute ankle booties and you’ll be knocked into the looking fab and profesional look!

**Winter coats, look hot and feel warm!



** And then the Pencil Skirt…….O my but the below skirt is Hot!! Love it! This is something every working lady NEEDS!

And then some of Ellie Saabs Winter/Fall 2012-2013 items.. These are sooooo fab, creative and hot!

Now ladies im sure you can't wait to dress for success..!!! ;)
