Happy Birthday ELLE-gant Muse


We've come a long way together, from the days of being a maturing teen to the lady-in-progress I am today.
I still remember when we first met, how we were introduced by my sister Ingrid. She still reminds me every now and then.

I used to be so pedantic to an extent that no one had the right to touch, open and even read your articles until I did. The silly disputes with friends, simply because of how they used to mishandle you. Let's not touch on the doggy ears, they used to make me hysterical to no end. It just never made sense to me why they never understood how to handle a lady of your caliber. Never.

I still remember when Jackie stepped in to be your guardian in December 2006, I had no doubts about her and now loo, 3 years and 3months later, Ms Burger took you in for a well earned face lift and I still look at you the same way, if not with a bit more respect.

You have managed to remain indisputable without much effort and that's what kept me wondering 'what's next?' The Summer and Winter supplements sponsored by MasterCard, bliss!

Well my dear friend, here's to you and everyone else, your decision makers, Jackie Burger, the hard working team of assistants, contributors, sales and marketing team, Dion Chang (and his amazing photographer), features writers, and down to those that keep the magazine on the shelves, people like myself.
Most thanks goes to the key role players, Avusa Management Team, here's to more fabulous years of timeless style, Touche.

Also, thank you for always giving my handbags that extra spark and keeping me company while I waited for friends to arrive in restaurants. You will always be MY baby.

P.S. I love the Wek colourful cover

I Decided to Jump in Silent...


Its been months now since I've been planning to take this Jump...

Today, Tuesday 30th of March 2010 at 7am my alarm went off and 'Traveller' started playing and I knew I had to take that journey I had been anticipating all this time.

Let me tell you my story...

I'm a typical cancerian, planning and plotting is my thing...BUT execution usually is a whole new story. Procrastination. BUT! BUT! BUT! my ashram is up so I'm gradually working on it, so yeah...

I have an eye for clothes and an ear for music, that's me in a nutshell. I created this ashram to find balance with the two, and to grow these ever changing flows.

Show me yours and I'll show you mine. Deal.
