i dont follow celebs much but this dress deserves to be on my blog !!
my baby is almost here!!!
So once again, been out of the blog for a while - am sure you'll will understand - pregnancy has its own demands and quite frankly the demand has been hectic with this my third child - still carried well and enjoyed it but physically been quite a drain - its all good, survived it.
While all this pregnancy is going on there has been quite a few changes in our lives as well - with our 2kids changing schools to attend one private, christian school which is by far the best thing that could happen - its hard to find spaces in private school so easily but I guess faith in God and speaking what you want to see really worked!
Anyway, my dear friends had a surprise baby shower for me at our apartments in sandton so it was a lovely time, lovely food, lovely people and really gorgeous gifts!! The gifts are still trickling in and am really thankful of all the love - a special mention of my dearest friend Shyline who was not at the shower but has just blessed us with a beautiful white wooden baby cot ! how awesome !!

what a beautiful day!
so the day that i have planned for the past few weeks finally came to pass - what a beautiful day it was.....more so because it was shared with 40 beautiful people very close to our heart..... Our 10th year marriage anniversary was according to our wish - I must admit, planning it drained me a little especially considering my 5month foetus growing inside me .... but when the day finally came - somehow i pulled through - now i understand when the bible says that a glad heart is makes the bones strong - when you are happy, even sickness runs away from you !!! I felt strong, fresh and vibrant - a feeling that I have missed.
So we asked all ladies attending to wear red dresses, gents to wear black shirts and denim blue jeans - it gave this look: Man with a rough edge accompanied by a beautiful classy woman ! Just the way most of us like it right? I dont know about most of you but i really prefer that a little Rugged look on my man opposed to a sleek all matchy matchy dressing - as long as they smell good and are well-shaven - i dont mind the masculine look thats a little rough !
Kids were not invited except of-course our 2 little ones - the boy (8) wore same colours as the men, and little Miss angel (4) wore a beautiful red princess dress - they looked simply cute....
SO I thought of all different colours that would break nicely into all these colours - wearing red was not an option because I had to look outstanding, any other colour would probably have clushed badly with the reds so the best colour for me was white - oh that dress looked good on me and my protruding belly - it was not a snow - white but winter white dress - i wont say much about it - will post a few pics when i have them ready -
Our beautiful cake was white with Silver hearts scattered all over and a bit of red to pick on the theme - .... The table linen was a beautiful black and white zebra print and white runners - i added a long row of little red candles on the table - oh the set up was a looong T table where everyone was sitting side to side and opposite each other. Me, hubby and the kids were sitting on the T-end so we could be in everyone's view...
I had guys from my Dress For Success show just outside the entrance - interviewing the guests - you know like they do at the "Oscars" Mmm - that made some people feel special !
The food was just as great - it was especially for meat lovers "carnivores" We ate all types of game, from zebras to impalas to crocodiles etc.....different types of salads and great desserts !
The Speech my husband gave made me want to cry , but i didnt because i dont like runny mascara "hehehe" - i did pretty well delivering mine too **blush!
Anyway, in a nutshell - everything went perfectly well and as always I always give THE GLORY TO GOD ALMIGHTY !

10years of Goodness!!!
I mentioned earlier how blessed I am to be reaching 10years in my marriage....its true that it gets better.....I will keep you updated of the ideas I have for my anniversary dinner but for now - a quick glimpse of the man who comes second to God......my master, my better half and all that mncwa darlin.......and the two cute nookies we have been blessed with thus far....
Summer "heats" africa - excuse the Pan
hi all....so we are out of the miserable winter - our September spring was not typical - actually some days were much colder than the winter days - October brings with it the heat that we are used to herein SA - so we bring out our light clothing - exactly what I need. So I havent really been doing that great (for a reason still yet to be revealed though am sure some of you have guessed by now :-)) but soon enough I will be starting on my ITai Collection - I love the classic look and a bit of retro so these will be incoorporated - my idea is to have a few items by the end of this year and start showcasing ...
I think I got married quite early now that I look at it - I cannot believe that in November me and hubby will be 10years into it and though it has become almost a "cliche" I will still say it - we are truly really still very happy - but without the Lord we wouldnt be. Please drop an idea or two on how to make our dinner party special....we will probably have a private room at a big restaurant to entertain about 40 guests... God is great....Lots of Love - keep your head high.....
Pics from our shoot this week were focused - coincidentally - on a lady who was looking for a decent outfit for an Engangement Dinner outfit...our stylist put her in seperates - gorgeous colours and really really very decent - see her before and after looks below......
Thats our girl, Sindi,.....before the transformation - yes i had to wear a wig for this shoot....my natural hair is still very much alive ...
Our guest stylist for the night was Bongie....fun girl, bubbly and cute... i should keep quiet sometimes...
My hair looked absolutely horrible here - but hey it happens
Below is the transformed Sindi, ready to face her in-laws as they celebrate at their Engagement Dinner...
A glimpse of my Crew in Action - never mind the clutter - just a typical studio....hehehe !
