Scorpio: Positive Heroes Fashion Show

Here in South Africa, one of my favourite South African labels Scorpio, showcased their designs at the Positive Heroes Fashion Show for charity in Cape Town last November. I regret having made this post so, so late but here it is now! 

I just love the direction this label takes and I am yet to be disappointed. The colours are ripe, the fit precise and the pricing quite fair. Their clothes are alwayr contemporary and always fun. Just in case you forgot, find their merchandise in South African YDE stores nationwide.

Ruald Rheeder Live Dream Desire

 My dear readers, please pardon the last couple slow weeks! I have always been dedicated to this sexy little space of mine on the internet and nothing will ever change that! And PS. I have checked out the stats and I am more surprised than ever before -- just under a thousand visits in a month! Let's get it! To the visitors, please please please subscribe to follow. Your support is greatly appreciated and highly coveted. 

 Now that's out of the way, during my earlier days of launching this blog, I went on and on in a post about how much I admire Ruald Rheeder's designer eye and it's that much more perfect just because he addresses the style of my personal taste -- casual, street-smart, urban, contemporary looks. He delivered once again in this ready-to-wear Live Dream Desire 2011 summer collection for YDE. All home grown, baby. South African through and through. 

 Pay attention to the impeccable fit, the colour palette although not the most vibrant for the typical and contemporary menswear summer still delivers, I find, and the craftsmanship from here really looks quite thorough.

GQ South Africa's Best Dressed Reader Competition 2011

Driven by some force of nature, my friends and I decided I should enter the GQ South Africa's Best Dressed Reader Competition 2011. I did not just enter but I made it through to the first 15 finalists out of the whole country! Can you believe that? I'm so stoked and still kinda shocked. Whether I take it all, come out first -- or not -- I'm still really grateful for the support of my family and friends and also grateful to the people over at GQ South Africa for considering me! Super! Whoop, whoop!
