Classic Challenge Day 1: Simplicity sometimes is perfect.

Today marks the first day of "The Classic's Challenge" ( click here ) which you will see me pulling outfit looks from only 7 basic items that I believe every person should have in their wardrobes. While waiting for our friend Mandiso to come out at work, Athi and I walked around the CBD as we had nothing to do and decided to get some cones while at it. Remembering the days when we were still young, nothing to worry about, no image to look out for, basically not giving a damn about anything or anyone in the world. When I told Athi, lets get some ice cream cones and walk to Mandiso's work he gave me a look that I know too familiar and replying "I will not walk around town eating an ice cream cone. Have you seen how a grown as man looks when he be licking and sucking an ice cream cone in public?" I could not stop laughing as I imagined it, well, I imagined a fourty-something year old man in a suit, licking a cone at the most busiest time in the CBD and that just cracked me up in stitches. I finally got him to say yes and as we passed Riebeek street, and before my cone started melting I asked Athi to take my first basic look outfit.

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...
