Spree Lookboard event

Last Thursday, Spreee.co.za invited everyone who is everyone in the fashion industry, celebrities, bloggers and fashion magazines to view their eagerly awaited S/S 2014 Spree Lookboard for their Spree Boutique which includes designers Marianne Fassler, Malcolm KLûK, Christiaan Gabriël du Toit, Gert-Johan Coetzee, Thula Sindi who where all in attendance. The event was in full force with the designers looks on live mannequins as we circles around them taking pictures and admiring the small details on each look.
As a big fan of Gert-Johan design aesthetic, I was not let down once again. The newspaper print on the skirt and the dress was fresh combined with the pattern of it. The cut was done to perfection giving you a new look at the print itself. from far it attracted you close and close up it made you want to touch it.
Kluk and CGDT gave us a new form of print on print. As they recently showcased their collection for MBFWCT at their new house it was great to see part of the collection as I was not able to attend the event prior. The use of solids subtle with the print on print gave me a belonging as the prints are rich in color and bold in pattern.
Marianne Fassler is the most down to earth woman I have ever met, so far. Her designs are a mixture of colors, pattern and cuts. Her range blasts with color injecting you with a playful harmony. The collection is as free-spirited as a bird.
Thula Sindi is such a gentleman. He knows exactly what a matured woman needs and not to say older but a woman that know what she wants in life. The collection is pure classic cuts, sixties inspired full skirts with princess a-line cuts. I was fascinated with the lace hem and details on the below looks. Pattern playing is one thing he is good at and I thoroughly enjoy from his designs.
I will be be updating once again on the event with a Q&A with the fashion director for Spree and some pictures I took at the event. Thank you to Spree for the invited and a fabulous event. Go to their website <> to start ordering your S/S 2014 looks. Picture Credit: SDR

Mai Thai Wellness Spa review.

Image
Last week PoseZA was invited to an escape to Paradise in The Heart of Cape Town at the Mai Thai wellness spa in Green Point. Been to quite a few Spa's in my lifetime, its always amazing to find one that takes you on a journey you have never been before. As I got out of the cab, I could see why it has been a jewel for Cape Town as it is a bit hidden but nonetheless when you enter the amazing wooden work door, you are transported to Thailand there and then. The interior is as authentic as Thailand, giving you a beach hotel Spa with an aroma of the sea and an eastern passage using Vuudh's Eastern collection, a very personal experience of travels and recollections of fragrances from each city and giving you an exquisite and exotic touch to enrich your lifestyle. You are then giving a tour to the garden space where you'll relax after your treatments which is beyond words especially when the sun sets and you have candle lights flouting around the main tree. I was given the opti
