Products That Rocked 2012! Ray-Ban Aviators

The sunglass style that will never go out of style! This year, I’ve practically lived in my Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses! They are both so easy to wear and match every kind of style and outfit. I change between these two styles; the classic Metal Frame Aviators, which I took with me on my trip Greece/ Dubai, and then my most recent pair, the Semi-Rimless Aviators. I love both of them equally, and although they are both “aviators”, they look completely different! One of the things I have really enjoyed with my Aviators besides having top quality lenses to protect my eyes, is that Ray-Ban aviators come with super small, flat and compact cases, which fit so easily into handbags or the centre console in your car etc! The Metal Frame Aviators with gold frames and brown lenses were my first pair of Ray-Ban Aviators. These are very retro – and I love the look. I almost feel like Michael Knight from Knight Rider – remember that show? Or Tom Cruise in Top Gun… YUM! In case you’d like to try on this style, just ask for the code 3025 001/51 55014. I had to try on a few pairs to find a style…

Products That Rocked 2012! Shellac

Once you’ve been Shellac-ed, there is just no going back! This amazing nail colour system has got to be one of my most fabulous finds this entire year! I was hooked on it from the very first application, which was  grey shade called Asphalt. I have since enjoyed wearing a few different colour variations including; Gotcha, Rock Royalty and Cocoa as well as Tropix and Rubble that are not featured in the images below. My favourite shade has got to be Tropix for summer. I’m actually sporting it on my feet right now! Then, for an every day, every mood, every season kinda colour, Cocoa is my number one pick! This amazing nail colour system has not only ensured that my colour stays close to perfect for up to two weeks, but because it’s a pore-less system – meaning that oxygen can get through to your nail bed – the health of my nails has also been improved. I am quite hard on my poor nails and without Shellac, I could kiss growing them goodbye! To read my full review on how Shellac lasted, how it was applied and how it was removed, with before and after pictures check out this blog post. I can’t…

Products That Rocked 2012! TUMI Tegra-Lite Luggage

I’ve done my fair share of air travel this year, and one thing that has really made it so much better, has been travelling with my TUMI TEGRA-LITE Carry on bag. It is such a great bag that is very, very light and has a really cool design. Plus, because it is a hard case, all my stuff stays exactly how I had packed it before getting on the plane. I’ve taken my TUMI with me on local trips to Cape Town and Jo’burg, and of course, it came with me on my trip to Greece and Dubai in August this year. I love how this bag glides through the airport, and I can wheel it behind me, next to me, or in front of me – which is a real bonus when trying to get through those narrow aeroplane isles! The fact that it is so lightweight means I can pack in more “stuff” on my travels. My makeup and beauty products alone tend to weigh me down on most trips, and let’s not forget the shoes – a girls’ gotta have options you know! When you have a bag that allows you to use the weight on your items and not…
