Absolut Elyx Cocktail

By

Last week I received a  lovely gift of Mini Copper Pineapples from the lovely team at Absolutely . The Elyx Pineapple of Hospitality arrived as a set of three,  in the most beautiful packaging. I do a lot of on the road missions and these babies are perfectly compact and easy for me to travel with, making them the perfect addition as my “party starter” drinking vessels.  As part of the gift, I also received a booklet which unpacked some information I’d love to share with you. About the ABSOLUTE ELYX Pineapple of Hospitality:  The pineapple is said to be a symbol of hospitality, and has been for centuries. It began as a rare treat displayed by nobility at their most luxurious banquets to demonstrate that no expense had been spared. The pineapple meant that you were truly welcome and your presence was an honour. See why these make the…

H&M Conscious Exclusive 2018

By

I took to Wikipedia for a clearer phrasing for what sustainable fashion is, and what it means for the environment. Sustainable fashion, also called eco fashion, is a part of the growing design philosophy and trend of sustainability, the goal of which is to create a system which can be supported indefinitely in terms of human impact on the environment and social responsibility. I believe it’s important that we continue to have conversations around sustainable methods of production in all industries and impose laws to help enforce better practices. To see a brand as big as H&M begin to join the movement is very impressive, especially considering their standing in influence in the industry of fashion. H&M Conscious Exclusive 2018 brings together powerful femininity and sustainable fashion innovation with recycled silver and ECONYL®. They’ve combined the latest in sustainable fabric innovation with designs inspired by the creative home of the…

Sweet Fire

From fuchsia to magenta, we all know that pink is power! If there’s a piece I’d advise you invest in as we step into Autumn/Winter, it would definitely be this tailored suit by Fabrosanz. I first got a taste of the suits by Fabrosanz a year ago. They’ve managed to…

Lunch date look

By

If there’s one thing I love to accessorize with it’s a great pair of sunnies. They’re basically the statement maker to any look you’re trying to achieve. Plus, we survive some days of the week with Coffee and sunglasses right?! My selection is very often the blacks and other neutral tones. However, with this outfit in mind, I decided to throw on a pair of Gucci shades. These babies have the right amount of tint on the lenses, enough for me to still remain in my safe zone as well as remain “accessible” to those I’m engaging with. As you can tell, this is definitely a lunch with the girls kind of outfit – the perfect day time look. I purchased the top from The Fix, under their newly launched New Lust Haves campaign. Everything is quite “Eastern dreamy” from this range. With pieces ranging from luxe kimonos, embroidery denim,…
