You may have seen a few Tweets about a recent event I attended hosted by Miles for Style, at L’Avenir Wine Estate in Stellenbosch. I thought I would share a bit about the event and what Miles for Style actually is.
Miles for Style is an South African, online shop, where you can earn SAA Voyager Miles when you spend, or if you are not a Voyager member, you can simply buy premium products. They offer an extensive variety of exclusive brands and quality offerings, such as wine, fashion and travel.
As part of a media initiative, we were invited to L’Avenir Wine Estate to find out more about Miles for Style{MFS} and about their brand offering.
Upon arrival at L’Avenir Wine Estate, we were greeted with a glass of L’Avenir’s Brut Rose and berries – much to my delight, as you may have guessed I love bubbly! We then had some time to mingle and have a look around the estate before we were asked to take a seat in the Alfresco Tasting Area.
Displays were set up around the main table to exhibit offerings from both MFS current and future partners. On show were detailed ceramics from Urchin Art, fashionable handbags from Red Oker, Blackcherry and Sakuma Africa as well as designer fashion pieces from Anna Moss.
To start proceedings, Melissa Delport, MFS Operations Manager, gave us a brief introduction to MFS and explained the driving force behind the event. Following which MFS Director, Sonja Delport, accredited the participating affiliates and thanked everyone for attending.
We were then treated to a tour of the L’Avenir Wine Cellar and Country Lodge, after which we enjoyed an array of canapés, pastries and cheese platters. All washed down with a glass or two of L’Avenir’s Chenin Blanc or Pinotage wine.
As with all good things, the event had to come to an end but we were all treated to an amazing goodie bag to take home! It contained a selection of products, which are available (or soon-to-be-available) from the MFS online shop. Along with all the wonderful products we received, were also treated to voucher to use on the MFS website.
Thank you to both Miles for Style and L’Avenir for a great event! If you would like to explore the online offering in more detail please visit the Miles For Style website.
