MISSIBABA - COLOUR BLOCK CAPSULE COLLECTION








COLOUR BLOCK CAPSULE COLLECTION
Warm up this winter with a touch of sixties nostalgia, Cape Town, June 2014 - Missibaba designer Chloe Townsend and creative partner Lizel Strydom launch a capsule collection using autumnal inspired leathers sourced on South American travels.A true celebration of sixties inspired colour, the COLOUR BLOCK collection adds a pop of retro glamour to the dreary winter months. The use of on-trend dark navy leather to frame contrasting colours allows them to shine individually with a gold geometric edge. The introduction of exotic textures including patent, sheepskin, snake and crackled leather give the collection's clean aesthetic an alluring edge.









The collection boasts two new bag styles and a new jewellery piece alongside iconic Missibaba styles. Pieces within the collection are in keeping with the COLOUR BLOCK theme – single colour panes broken into interesting shapes and framed in matte navy.The San Telmo Hold All
is a unisex handheld carrier perfect for day or night. The bag is made of rich walnut leather with handles and trims in Cr
azy Horse tan - a vegetable tan leather with hardwearing qualities that ages beautifully. The style is also available with the option of different colours and textures in the middle panel.The Feria Clutch is a true festival of colour with the added benefit of thoughtful practicality.Credit card slots, room for essentials, a back zip pocket for valuables and quick, easy to open fastening make this piece a wardrobe necessity. 









The bag can be worn as a handheld clutch or over the shoulder as a small sling.The Daisy Chain is a double-sided neckpiece available in a variety of bold colour ways with the reverse in navy vegetable tan. Attached to a long brass chain, the statement piece can be easily adjusted by the wearer to fit their desired length.
Chloe and Lizel worked with photographer Lar Leslie on the dynamic COLOUR BLOCK campaign. Shot on Africa’s Next Top Model runner up Opeyemi, the campaign brings the collection’s retro Autumnal colour palette to life in an eye-catching and slightly offbeat way.


These are some of the products I adore from the collection. A must have for this A/W2014.

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...
