SA FASHION WEEK POP UP SHOP PREVIEW

The SA Fashion week pop up shop preview evening was amazing last night, beyond what I had expected. Most of the designers were there in person and they brought the good stuff with them. With 50 designers to choose from, there is something for everyone at the pop up shop. 
Thanks to Jameson the drinks were flowing all night.

I was invited by Faeeza Khan to the preview, her stand was my primary interest and I was not disappointed. The Faeeza Khan label has so much personality each piece is quirky, interesting and feminine plus she is an absolutely adorable person. I will share with you later the fabulous skirt I got from her line.
I wore a printed body con dress with Steven Madden heels and bright orange lips by Maybelline super stay colour 540.
If you want interesting statement pieces for your wardrobe then please make your way to Brooklyn mall in Pretoria between the 30th and the 2nd of September and enjoy a wonderful glimpse of what our local designers have to offer.

The Skip fashion exchange

This is what I wore to the Skip Fashion exchange at the Maslow hotel Friday night. It was such a great night of fashion sharing. I kept it casual chic with jeans and a blazer.

Zoom: The office court shoe with a gold tip. Love!

This Thula Sindi dress or the Maxi skirt (I haven't decided which one) is going to be my Summer statement piece.

My thrifted dress

I love getting a fashionable item at a bargain. This is so true for this dress; my sister bought  it for me from Hombakazi Vintage Cabin a.k.a. HVC in Port Elizabeth. I was so excited to wear it to the office, I felt very Mad men  like.. I shook my hips as I walked down the corridors...with my bright lipstick and drinking scotch...ok so there was no scotch and my lipstick was not that bright..but I still felt good.

The Skip Fashion Exchange

We live in very interesting and exciting times. Your close circle of friends and sisters are not the only people from who's wardrobes you can shop and swap clothes. Think of The Skip Fashion Exchange as your extended circle of fabulously fashionable friends...who are looking to find a loving home for clothing they no longer wear but still love and and you can be that welcoming home.

Here is what you need to do; Go through your cupboard and select three items that you value, but you no longer fit into or wear.Wash, clean and mend these items so that they are in the best condition and bring them along to the Fashion Exchange.

These items will be evaluated and given a "value", you will then be able to swap for clothing items of similar value.

If this sounds like your kind of thing; visit the Skip website Here
