Monochrome Days x Boys Through The Lens

Basically this is how wild fashionable boys roll when they're sent out in the city. These pictures were taken at Mxolisi Luke Mkhize's party which was both his birthday and the birthday of his label House of Saint Luke (HSL). The party was held at the warehouse kinda venue at Fuego. This party saw the launch of the fabSiya Ntini's first ever collection for his line named Ralph Tox (yes you are still to hear more about him and his line).

Here are just some of the pictures with your's truly all dressed in black, (and no! We did not plan the wide brimmed hats look) it was just as much of a surprise for each of us when we all bumped into each other. Trevor Ntombela of Rovertzn (in the glasses) opted for calling us the Jews for the night since we were already on our way there in all forms of fierce by the way.
These are just some of my favorite people in the fashion scene around DBN so in all honesty I totally didn't mind looking all so similar to them.

Versace Loves Gaga x Spring/Summer Campaign


A few weeks ago when Lady Gaga's latest album was leaked everyone got the taste of what was to be a rather bland offering from the Applause singer. With a few favorites from the fans in the lines of Gyspy, Venus and Do What U Want which features R&B legend R Kelly, it was hard to overlook Donatella. The track which is named after the creative dierctor of Versace just went to show how much Lady Gaga values her relationship with the brand. 
Soon after the official release of the singer's long awaited album, it was officially announced that Gaga would be posing for Versace on their spring/summer 2014 campaign. I must say this may be one of the few good things that might have come out of Artpop which doesn't seem to be doing quite well on the charts plus the reviews haven't been close to great either. 

Monday,my serving of whats hot online had to be the Versace Loves Gaga amongst her entrance at AMA's on a human horse in Versace, obviously. Lady Gaga channels the brand's creative director look on the campaign with long straightened blonde hair and minimum accessories. Personally I believe this campaign is enthralling in way, Mother Monster is known for her outrageous, avant-garde style as her everyday look but this campaign sees her in a very clean and elegant style. She looked super chic and uhm (healthy) on that tight bandage dress. This just goes to prove that sometimes less is more even for Mother Monster.

InstaFashion x Gert-Johan Coetzee Couture meets Kelly Rowland



There are moments which just evoke a sense of patriotism with everyone and international singing sensation Kelly Rowland brought just that to South African fashion lovers and followers of the brand Gert-Johan Coetzee Couture when she wore a super chic LBD to the Ms. Foundation for Women event, held in Beverly Hills on Tuesday night. Twitter and Instagram went crazy when Kelly Rowland posted a picture of herself in the garment on Instagram with the caption "My beautiful dress I wore last night to the Foundation for Women #GloriaSteinemEvent was by the South African designer @gertjohancoetzee AMAZING!" 

Kelly Rowland looked impeccable in this killer LBD finished with a up hairdo and just the right amount of make up. She was stunning and that not just my verdict other international bloggers and fashion columnists praised the Kisses Down Low singer for this Coetzee number. 
I personally believe she has just gone and showed us what a Gert-Johan girl looks like. Sophisticated, extremely elegant and super sexy. So if international superstars have recognize the genius which is Gert-Johan Coetzee what are you waiting for?
