Ramblings of a rampant beauty editor…
Sigh… Remember that massive SACK of sweets, choccies and biccies that we got at the Maybelline launch? Well, because I’m a kind and wondrous colleague, I popped them into one of my art director’s ‘snack draw’. Now, a mere two working days later, I see our calorific bounty has been whittled down to almost nothing. […]

Read MoreLast night I attended the launch of one of Cape Town’s new hot spots, Sugar Hut… despite ending up a bloodied, tragedy-befallen trainwreck – and having my camera stolen – I actually had a rocking time. Alas, I now have zero piccies to show you, so you’ll just have to use your imagination in parts. […]
Read MoreI’m currently working on Woolworths’ summer campaign… for 20-freaken-12! Things are getting a bit intense at work ‘cos we’ve got to present a Big Idea on Wednesday next week and right now we’ve only got a bunch of little ideas that need seriyas cultivating… Anyhoo, due to all the champagne addled parties genius campaign ideas […]
Read MoreI’m sure I’ve told you all this, but on my ‘site stats’ page, I can see what words people googled in order to find my blog. And some perv with no aptitude for spelling just typed in ‘hors xx gerls’ to end up on my site. Hee hee hee! No clue how that resulted in […]
Read MoreHey girls! Last night I hit up the Maybelline bash. It took place in a fancy loft-type thing in town (v. NY, NY) and involved specially made-up models, a very busy bar and tray after tray of Lindt choccie. Took a zillion piccies to show you, so let’s jump right in shall we? Upon arrival, […]

Read MoreYesterday morning was particularly kak. My poor little car refused to start once more – and this time there weren’t any tall, dashing millionaire men hanging around to help me out.
