Vogues new Girl for their Eyewear!

Vogue has found a new muse for their well known and sophisticated eyewear, for the new range (drummmmmmmm rooooooollllllllll) : Ms. Eva Mendes and believe me, she's doing a fantastic job.

 

 

 

 

Eva is a fashion goddess and an internationally-claimed actress. Beautiful “biets” and I must say also very talented. I just love the way she’s working the different frames and shapes of these babies. She makes it look so effortless (the modeling of course, lol).

 

Inspired by the trends seen on the runway and the feminine frames have strong personality and are totally sophisticated as well and fantastically showed off by Eva. What Ms. Mendes had to say about the range: “I really love glasses. Whether they are prescription glasses or sunglasses, they are an extension of your personality and such a fantastic accessory I love to mix and match and play with different looks, depending on my mood and my outfit. My favourites are frames that have a slightly retro feel, and I feel comfortable in this range...” 

 

 

 

 

Eva is a 39 year old actress, model, singer and she's even got her fingers in homeware designing, quite busy if you ask me...

Please do yourself a favour and go see the following movies: Once upon a time in Mexico, Out of time and Girl in Progress if you haven't seen it before and if you have, it's fantastic movies to watch again, lol (that's what I do)...

 

Some behind the scenes pics, how I wished that I could've taken the pics myself...

 

 

 

 

I must say, well done Ms. Mendes, another project well expedited and great work.

 

Till next time chickas.

 

Mwah!!!

When does one start a count down?

Oh well, it's been tough and hectic, everything has just been going kakkies my side, but I can atleast celebrate a few things.

Haven't posted a review of 2012 as yet even, because I've been trying to write it for the past 2 months I think. Keep on erasing and replacing and re-typing stuff, but that is still coming, lol. (Is it late, well, not to me, it's still gonna be my review, lol).

Well, this post is about everything that happened over the past 2/3 weeks and sommer also about everything in general, lol. Damn, crazy, I know, but bare with me, lol.

Anyhoo, the count down started officially for when I will be done here in the current department. I don't really know whether there is a criteria or specific requirement or specification as to when one can start a count down, but well, mine started today and it's gonna last a month, lol.

Time for new adventures and new experiences. I will be back, I guess sooner then later, but for now, I need a breather. Yes, its 2013 and time for new experiences and a lot more sacrafices in order to achieve that. Will be starting a new job on then 2nd of April 2013, but my count down started today till the 21st of March 2013 (Namibia's Independence day), because that's the day that I will be done in this office... sad, but time to move on...

Then I am overly excited to see my friend (Nafeesa) coming on the 3rd of March, lol, will be picking her up at the airport!!!! (Jump for joy, lol)... I smell a road trip by the end of March, lol.

Nafee

Oh boy, can you guys remember how nail bitting crazy my exam's were, I think I've mentioned it somewhere here!!! Well, I am glad to tell you that I've passed all my modules, am so happy about that, with everything I went through at the time, but yeah, hardwork do pay off hey? We should just never give up, never ever in our lives.

I wonder what the problem is with the weather in Namibia, god dammit, it's hot and we haven't really received any rain thus far, hope that things will get better soonest.

And then we heard about Oscar Pistorius, quite sad though, but well, let's hear and see what the judges/law have to say about that, neither of us were there and worst of all Reeva also can't testify to say what really happened, so it's OP and evidence.

Well chickas, it's 2013 and a wonderful year with so many opportunities and so many good things with a lot of challenges though, but nothing is worth it, if we didn't work hard for it, so let's do this: "Vamos dar o ano por os chifres."

Mwah!!!
Till later chickas...

Kanye & Kim are expecting!!!

They both confirmed it on different occasions, and Kim confirmed it on her blog here.

They look so happy and so inlove, this is so beautiful.

Yes, they are expecting and are very happy. Kim says that she feels blessed... I am quite excited and can't wait, lol. I've literally glowed with excitement when I heard the news, lol, dramatic I know, but all should know how I love my Kim.

Love birds:

 

 

She definately looks very good with that leather skirt. Love her glasses as well...

It's definately still in it's very early stages, as this is a picture of her on New Year's Eve in Las Vegas hosting a party, and one can still not see anything.

You can follow this beauty on a lot of different social networks: @KimKardashian (Twitter), http://kimkardashian.celebuzz.com/ (Blog)!!!

TIll next time chikas...

Mwah!!!

Style, Fashion & Wardrobe: Odile Muller (Gertze)

Following an urge and desire and taking a chance: (What's life without taking risks hey, lol?)

A quote by Mark Houlahan:

"If you want your life to be a magnificent story, then begin by realizing that you are the author and everyday you have the opportunity to write a new page."

So, here goes. I love this lady, her style, her beauty, her passion and her drive. She is one small pettite woman, yet with so much flare and attitude (positive)!!!

Been searching and scrutinizing to see who I want to feature first for this chapter of my blog and well, well, well, our former Miss Namibia (2010), Odile Muller (Gertze) made the cut.

So, let's start:

Odile is a beauty queen born in Windhoek, 1988. Miss Namibia 2010 and made it to the top 25 at the Miss World beauty pageant as well in the same year. Proud Namibian moments, lol.

I've asked her to share a few detail with me and I am so happy to share it with you my chikas, so here goes:

Which trend will you working this Summer?

Well, I love my legs and showing them off. The main trend I would love to try is the new floral print dresses, shorts and skirts, especially the peplum. I also want to experiment with loud and colorful prints. (I believe you'll be able to pull that off, lol).

 

Describe your relationship with your wardrobe?

Right now it's a love and hate kind of relationship. Sometimes I find buried treasures, another occasion I never find anything to wear!!! (Lol, completely think that this is a woman's thing, gosh, hehehehe). But I enjoy experimenting and playing around with different textures and mixing old with new.

Favourite item in your wardrobe?

My SHOES and my accessories. These are the key items that make or break your wardrobe!!! I had to spring clean my closet and give away boxes of clothes and shoes so my collection is looking really thin. But like they say, out with the old, in with the new! (I also believe in that, and it's good, but surely think that some things you just can't give away, no matter how old or small they are, lol).

What's your fav go-to shop, and which pieces in-store do you gravitate to first?

It usually varies on budget (Oh sure, she also has a budget, lol). Mr. P and Edgars are always loyal to me and I rarely leave unsatisfied. But my fashion heart belongs to Anjo's and their beautiful selection on shoes. (Do yourself a favour and browse through their website, it is amazing).

Describe your best buy:

My best buy has to be something that I have been looking for forever. A recent best buy from Anjo's, a pair of black flare shorts that is a perfect fit for my small pair-shaped body type. What I'm searching for now, the perfect pencil skirt. I could make it myself, but what fun would that be if you can't go shopping??? (Lol, good one...)

Define your own style:

Classy, fun, eclectic. Not all at once though...



What's the one fashion trend you wish you have never worn?

Faded Acid Wash Jeans. EEK!!!

Do you have a dominating colour in your wardrobe and what is it?

Oddly enough, black and neutral tones. When you experiment with fashion, it's always safer to try it in a neutral tone, and if you rock it, then you can go crazy.

Who's your fashion icon/crush?

I have 3, Blake Lively for her ultra girly, fashion forward appeal, Kim Kardashian for her love for labels and Olivia Palmero, she has this amazing talent of wearing ANY trend and making it work. (I can imagine why these 3 woman are her top 3, just look at some glam).

 

Odile got married recently and she gladly shared a pic in her gown with me. She sounds very excited about the future and is also very patient, but boy-oh-boy if someone is busy with a lot of things at the same time, it's this lady!!!

 

Love the detail of this gown, beuatiful and classy indeed!!!

 

Till later chikas!!!

Mwah!!!

Wedding bells!!! Past weekend

It seems to me that I need a full bag of apologies for not blogging that much or rather for not been active for the past 2 months I guess, but I can explain.

First of all, as you all know I was busy with exams for some time and it was hectic, but I can say with a big smile, that it did pay off. Passed all my modules and am excited about 2013.

Then after exams, work kept me busy and believe me when I say that it was extremely hectic and with a big smile again and a lot of excitement about the project going live soon, all the hardwork and late nights will show soon. (Just hope a pay raise is in the pipe line as well, lol---- wishful thinking I guess).

Then it was my bday, but I had no celebration this year, just met up with a few friends and family for some cake and drinks and it was so much fun.

Then, it was the wedding, yes, Uda Magreth Eunice Shilomboleni got married last week Thursday. What an awesome party that was. And I am so happy for her even though I need to get used to so much now, but it is just great. She fell inlove some 9 months ago, they dated for purpose and decided to get married and well, she is officially Mrs. Greg Gordon Gawachab, lol. Well done my friend.

Some pics, not everything and also not the photographer's pics. These were some random pics we as friends took on our cellphones.

We just has so much fun... It was awesome and they looked beautiful and happy.

Till next time chikas and I promise that I am going to be active from now on. Will try and get a post out every single day!!!!

Mwah!!!

God Child's graduation from Pre-school!!!

Some time back I got an invite to my godchild's graduation from pre-school and I was so excited. It feels like yesterday that she was born, OMW, they grow up so fast, but so beautiful as well.

She was such a beauty in that white dress and she makes me so proud.

 

 

It was just amazing to see how these kids performed the night, because it was a combination of their christmas play and the graduation of the kids going to primary school. I know it takes time to teach these kids to memorise their verses and also to learn the songs that they need to perform and believe me, it was just amazing. I literally had tears in my eyes, but yeah, if you know me, am also a very dramatic and emotional person, lol. But it was just good.





They were only 5 kids that graduated this year, but they were all amazing...

What was quite amazing for me was the fact that these kids prayed a little prayer for God to bless them and to make their lives successsfull and for them to prosper in life, which was just a rare occurence to me.

And the fact that all 5 prayers were different and really touching. That was just amazing.

Well chickas, it's really amazing and good to enjoy every minute of your life and appreciate the lives God has given each and everyone of us. These kids made me realise that we as adults need to go back to basics again.

Till next time!!!

Mwah!!!

Exams again!!! Phew!

So, it's this time of the year again, exams. Everyone is tired and not really in the mood for late night's studying, but I mean, a man's got to do what a man's got to do or rather a student, lol.

Anyways, I just want to wish everyone all the best of luck with their exams, I am starting Monday and believe me, I don't even have the energy, but well, will have to pull myself together, 'cause I can't wait to pass, lol.

That's all we should do, keep calm!!!

Till later chikas!

Mwah!!!
