On Tuesday I went to the Tom Ford what
what, yes what what! They are not paying us to do this. Ngiyadlala, it was a
fragrance launch at the Mall of Rosebank, Sturtterfords.

As you can expect, the venue was tiny, after registration you got a glass of bubbly as a welcome drink, I stuck to this DOP the whole night. There was a bar if you preferred other types of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Finger food was served throughout the night, mains were couscous and chicken curry.
When it comes to Tom Ford, the only thing I
own is the white patchouli perfume, which I treasure. I discovered that they
have a lipstick range, for R500.00 a pop, I’m definitely not their target
market, but if you can afford it, it’s a nice thing to own and chomela your friends
with while they are busy ngeMac. Oh, and bathi it has some healing properties
0_O. We tested the things that were on display, I particularly like the
Shanghai Lily perfume, because I prefer summery scents.
It
was a nice do with the who’s who of the jozi celebrity likers and bloggers. Eugene
and Boity arrived together, so the rumour might be true. Eugene is extremely
short bathong, I wonder if uyakwazi ukuKuka uBoity njengoba ethick kanje. Lerato
Kganyago was there wearing the Lamanche/Uncle Allie orange jumper. She was not wearing
a bra, she has nice boobs though but it looked unsightly because she kept on pulling
it to cover up. The make-up was too much, maybe that’s what they call night
make-up. If you asked me, I’d say she looked like a contestant on RuPaul’s
show but then again maybe it looks good on photos.
Don't ask, but I am sure there is a reason I took this pic. Damn alcohol |
Jen
Sue was also there looking all kinds of wrong in a shaddy outfit with a hat
that looked like a spoti. Pro and Wife were there, they are a cute couple, also
spotted Jerry the blogger, he wore jeans, doctor martins and a knitted top that
showed his man boobs, Yuk
A man bearing gifts!!!! |
The show started and some guy from Tom Ford
Paris made a speech, yawn! We were shown a video of the Tom Ford ranges, Fashion,
beauty and accessories. Thereafter there was a draw, if you had left your
business card at registration then you stood a chance to win a prize. Maps and
a guy by the name of Tinashe won the draws, there was also social media
competition where if you got a lot of hits on twitter or Insta you could also
win, Jen Sue won that one. Mxim! The network was so bad at the vanue for us MTN
customers, so there was no twitting for us. I left early, so I might have
missed some of the people worth talking about.
