SAMW 2016 - South African Menswear Week 2016

The fourth installment of SA Menswear week SS16 was held from the 6th-9th July 2016 at Cape Town Stadium. Some of the countries top  designers strutted their stuff on the catwalk including Imprint, 2bop and Magents. I got the opportunity to report from the red carpet for a TV show called What's Happening CPT. From left: Kayeezi from GHFM and Craig Joshua from What's Happening CPT on Cape Town TV.  I really had too much fun interviewing celebrities and designers such as Jimmy Nevis and Chad Saaiman. Check out some of my favourite trends from SAMW SS16 collection! Wide-leg pants are a must. White is a definite staple colour this season. Ladies wear worn as menswear. Shorts are getting shorter. Flip-flops and socks are back. Dark denim jeans all the way. Cropped pants are getting shorter. If you got it, by all means flaunt it. Dare to be different? Go pink. Blazers are bolder. Sandals, yes please.

Tevin Campbell serenades fans at Grandwest Arena

Tevin Campbell serenades fans at Grandwest Arena Tevin Campbell doing what he does best on stage.  90s R&B star, Tevin Campbell performed to thousands of screaming fans at the Grandwest Arena in Cape Town on Friday, 22 July 2016. His performance forms part of “The return of Tevin Campbell Tour”. Accompanied by a stellar live band, which included local saxophonist, Donvino Prins, Tevin oozed charm and energy in bucket loads. He performed his popular hits such as Can We Talk , Brown Eyed Girl and Shhh . Fans also got a taste of his new music. Despite falling on stage during his rendition of Can We Talk , Tevin got right back up and said “Shit Happens”. He even laughed it off, looking super-embarrassed. “That’s my very first time falling on stage. It could have been a whole lot worse.  Anyway, gotta laugh at it right?" Tevin said. Tevin was supported by local acts which included The Black Ties and Lloyd Cele.     The Black Ties received a standing ovation .
