Attend a fabulous soirée
Be inspired, indulged and empowered at Jackie Burger’s seventh Salon 58 soirée, Awaken: Grace. A beautiful lunch, a salon fashion show and a great conversation await all who attend on Saturday 13 August. The event takes place at P.J. Olivier Art Centre, Stellenbosch. Tickets are R650 pp and can be purchased here.
Get six-star style
Think gold floral embroidery and printed lace twinsets, and you’ll get an idea of why we’re obsessed with Ted Baker‘s delightful SS16 collection. Modern detailing, sporty accents and breathtaking patterns come to life in colours like fresh mint, bold orange and red, and new neutrals of navy and monochrome – guaranteeing six-star style this coming spring!
Buy one, get one free!
PUMA Select is where the party’s at this month! In celebration of their second birthday, they’re giving away a FREE pair of kicks with every sneaker purchase. That means twice the style, for half the price! This promo runs while stocks last, so get to a store now!
Be an early bird
That’s right – venues and dates have been confirmed, meaning that tickets are now on sale for Ultra South Africa 2017! Amped? You can purchase your tickets online at ultrasouthafrica.com.
How do VIP tickets to The MTV Africa Music Awards sound? Great? We thought so! Purchase a bottle of Absolut Vodka‘s limited edition Khuli Chana Bottle between 1 August and 10 October, and you could join Khuli himself at the stylish awards! Only 3 000 of these African-inspired bottles have been released, so be quick!
Escape to a Carribean island
The feeling of long relaxing days in the Carribean can be yours thanks to Crabtree & Evelyn‘s Caribbean Island Bath and Body Collection. Wild island flowers mingle with tropical citrus notes to create a fresh and enticing fragrance. Prices range from R400 – R1 400. The collection is now available in-store or online.
Join the Butterfly Revolution
In the spirit of Women’s Month, Towerkop Creations and Left Post Production have launched the #ButterflyRevolution campaign. South Africans are called to join in and take a stand opposing violence against women and children. All you need to do to join this movement is share a picture or video holding a piece of paper on which you write why you’re joining the campaign. Tag or nominate your friends and encourage them to do the same. For more information, visit www.alisonthemovie.com.
