DESIGNER SHOPPING TRAVEL SOUTH AFRICA

I live up to my promises ladies this is just for you.  Shopping in South Africa.  Let's start off with some amazing products featured by Carla Antoni, and the super cool thing about Carla is; she "gives back" to the community.  A portion of the proceeds go directly to The Lunch Box Fund  This fund is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing a daily meal for extremely poor and at-risk school children in South Africa.  These children, if properly nourished in body and mind, have the potential to change their lives for the better.

A fragrance by Tammy Frazer, Size: 65 x 65 x 142 mm.  A primal and confidently sexual scent containing “Afro”disiac properties and mysterious undertones. Beware, it could lead to thrillingly dangerous temptations. 

More about Tammy Frazer; she is the granddaughter of Graham Wulff, inventor of Oil of Olay, Frazer follows in his footsteps single-handedly launching her personally handmade perfumes in haute parfumeries in London, Amsterdam, Rome, Toronto, and Cape Town.



The following three bracelet cuffs were all made by Philippa Green; who found her Inspiration through the ancient craft of jewellery design in the village of Taxco on a trip to Mexico. Philippa's passion for her craft has lead her to become one of South Africa’s most highly respected contemporary jewellery designers.
