Win Tickets to Decorex Cape Town

This Competition Has Ended

There are lots of amazing events due to be happening in Cape Town and one which I am particularly looking forward to is Decorex! We are planning a few renovations for later in the year and Decorex is the perfect place to find heaps of décor and design inspiration!

This highly anticipated décor, design and lifestyle exhibition, will be happening at the CTICC
Cape Town, between 25th and 28th April 2014.

Decorex Cape Town will include everything from fine home finishes, to beautiful décor accessories, bathroom, appliance, garden and kitchen findings all under one roof.

I am excited to announce that 5 lucky readers can each win a set of double tickets, valued at R150 per set, to attend Decorex Cape Town. {See how enter below the post}

Below are a few of the events and exhibit you can look forward to at this year’s Decorex:

You can look forward to the Design & Trend Forecast, sponsored by Caesarstone, which will take place on 25^th April alongside Decorex Cape Town. The Design and Trend Forecast lineup includes:Local trends forecaster and analyst Dion Chang, emerging interior design trends by London trend consultancy FranklinTill and Design trends fresh from the top international kitchen design fair Eurocucina, presented by Caesarstone.

Quirky design duo Liezel Fourie and Bartel van Vuuren of Sobeit Studios have been invited to create a feature installation at Decorex Cape Town depicting the Design Your Life theme. They will curate and style a show-stopping space that will show off an unlikely concept of ‘uncomfortable beauty’.

Topping the bill at Decorex Cape Town is designer Greg Mellor in association with fabric house St Leger & Viney, who will design and curate the highly anticipated Decorex Designer Spotlight. Greg’s idea for the space is to show how to layer good design with a collection of personal objects, and block printed fabrics added to the mix.

The tongue in cheek “Manscape” project is inspired by the success of the Mancaves feature, in 2012, where some of South Africa’s most popular male celebrities and designers created the ultimate Mancave.

We’re inviting the boys back again – only this time they‘re being sent outside to create an outdoor living space that any South African man would aspire to and want to recreate. We’ve invited them to create a Manscape that reflects the latest trends as well as their own style in outdoor living. Look out for Manscapes designed by fashion designer Craig Port, and pro-surfer Dene Botha.

A new addition to the Decorex Cape Town line-up is the 100% Design South Africa preview pavilion. 100% Design South Africa is a showcase of contemporary local and international furniture, lighting, interiors and textiles. Part of the pavilion is the 100 Beautiful Things sshowcase, in celebration of World Design Capital’s theme of Beautiful Space, Beautiful Things. All the objects in the gallery have been selected by 100% Design South Africa Programmes Director, Cathy O’Clery, and are designed, made and in production in 2014.

The KWV Gourmet Market promises food and beverage pairings with a variety of delicious treats in a night market setting. Set to be a great day out for everyone with a variety of food offerings to suit most tastes. The KWV Gourmet Market will offer food market style frozen yoghurt, gourmet burgers, as well as Wine, Cocktails and Wine Spriters by KWV.

A luxurious bar where selected Graham Beck wines and sparkling wines can be enjoyed alongside food pairings within a comfortable, understated and classic space beautifully put together by Concreate & Forest Collection.

Emy Our Summer Makeover Winner

I recently shared our Summer Makeover Reveal, which you must admit was amazing! Well I asked Emy our summer makeover winner, if she would like to share a few words about her experience, here is what she had to say:

Firstly I headed off to Edge Hair Salon, in Cavendish Square and was met by Fiona and Ardila. Being the typical busy working mom that I am I have used box color on my hair for as long as I can remember. So before we would even start coloring my hair we had to remove all of that color which seemed to take forever. But Ardila worked a miracle and my hair came out looking and feeling amazing.

Kirsty then joined us and we went shopping for clothes and accessories for the shoot. This was by far the hardest part of the whole experience. I am super self conscious since having my daughter and never really losing all the weight. I tend to go for clothes that hide everything and trying on clothes that I would not normally try on, in front of Fiona and Kristy (who are 2 of the most gorgeous people) was really difficult. I don’t regret it though, I feel that being put in that position and out of my comfort zone was good for me. I know that I have more confidence now and my self-image is much better than it used to be. Thanks Ladies!!!

Next I was off to meet Dominique at the Hout Bay Manor (which is gorgeous!). We were joined by Fiona and drank champagne whilst I tried on clothes and went through my wardrobe. Ladies, I would suggest that you all contact Dominique, my whole outlook on clothes has changed. And even though we couldn’t go through my entire wardrobe, as I had to drive in from Paternoster, I got a very good idea of what works for me and what doesn’t. I will certainly be meeting up with her in the future, even if it’s just for a quick clothes shop.

Afterwards I was left to enjoy Hout Bay Manor. Let me just say (and my husband will back me up on this) that I am the fussiest person when it comes to accommodation. Being in the Guest House business has ruined me for life, as I have ridiculously high standards. I can honestly say that I could not find fault with anything at this Hotel. The staff were amazing, the room was to die for! If Dominique is reading this I took that long bubble bath, with champagne! And it was heavenly! As a mom I was so looking forward to a few hours of peace and quiet. Which I did enjoy, but must say that my bed felt really empty without my family there.

I was up early the following morning for some breakfast and a quick shower before everyone arrived. Kirsty was my makeup artist and stylist and what an amazing person. Not only did she transform me completely but she was so much fun to be around and was constantly giving me makeup tips. Fiona ran around making sure we all had enough coffee and carried my clothing changes, while we ran around taking photos.

I was so nervous about having my photo taken and was convinced I would look all stiff and fake in the photos. Alison has this way of capturing you and making you feel so at ease. The photos are truly amazing.

Thank you again Fiona, Ardila, Kirsty and Alison as well as all the sponsors.
