Window Shopper by All4Women

The Perfect Excuse

On-line-shopping

All4Women.co.za, is one of the fastest growing online women’s magazine in South Africa, they offer their readers a wide range of articles on fashion, beauty, weight loss, health, decor and more, with over 400 articles being added each month.

All4Women recently launched a brilliant new feature on their website called Window Shopper. Window Shopper allows you to view and share images of clothing items available in South Africa’s leading women’s retail stores, without leaving the comfort of your chair! You can filter your search, either by store(s) and/or type(s) of clothing.

Loads of new pictures are added every day, so this way you’ll get to tour the mall without having to leave the comfort of your home or office. It is a one shop “fashion-finder,” which allows you the convenience of visiting one site, instead of having to trawl the mall or online stores to keep up to date, with all the hot new fashion items that have hit the shelves.

As a busy mom, I think this is a fantastic idea, especially if you are looking for something specific! At least you can do your research and legwork before you hit the shops or even better still order an item from a store on-line and have it delivered!

My October 2012 rubybox

October has been a rather busy month but one of my highlights each month is the arrival of my Rubybox, it is exciting to see what new products the Rubies have sent my way. My October 2012 rubybox included a how-to self-breast-examination, in aid of Breast Cancer Awareness month, something we all need to be more aware of!

My October rubybox Review:

  • African Extracts Rooibos Anti-Ageing Hand & Nail Cream – I am fairly besotted with hand-care and use hand cream religiously. I feel that you can really tell a person’s age by looking at the hands – so why not try to fool nature and keep them looking as young as possible! The cream is lovely and nourishing, it coats your hands well and almost acts as a barrier cream. It does have a slightly sticky feel to it once applied and a fairly strong fragrance but overall it does the job of moisturising your hands.
  • Gatineau Melatogenine AOX Probiotics – As I may have mentioned before I am rocking the big 40, so anti-aging is top off my priority list when it comes to buying skin care. This cream promises the whole she-bang, it is rich in antioxidants and probiotics, to slow down the visible signs of ageing. I love the feel of the cream on my skin although it is fairly thick and a tad greasy for me to use during the day but it left the skin on my face and neck silky smooth.
  • Kenzo Madly – first off let me say I am not a big Kenzo fan, I find their fragrances tend to be a bit overpowering and extremely floral and can give me a headache, when I wear them. I did however remain open-minded when trying the samples, out of the two Madly is definitely more me, it is floral with Jasmine notes but it also has a sensual musky element which is something I like in a fragrance.
  • Kenzo Flower – it has a lovely floral scent but this is not the fragrance for me, even though it has notes of vanilla which I love, I find the overall scent too sweet.
  • Kenzo Homme Sport – something for the man in your life! It is a rather musky fragrance, with notes of aromatic mint, ginger and cedarwood. My first thought was that it was quite a heavy fragrance but as the scent developed and it settled on Mr I decided that I quite liked it!
  • Rubybox Tools Eye Lash Curler – this is a new addition to Rubybox’s range of “tools”, I have never used an eye lash curler before and I must admit I was a bit nervous when trying it for the first time, scared that I would accidentally pull out all my eyelashes if I slipped. Thankfully I did not pull them out and I did notice a bit more of a up-swept curl, on my lashes but I think I still need to get the hang of using this beauty tool!
  • Zehra Age Beautifully – the last item in this months box is by far the most intriguing! It is an oral collagen supplement, to help you maintain youthful looking skin. I have not tried it yet and I am somewhat sceptical but hey best I try it and find out for myself. The Zehra supplement contains Peptan Collagen, to help stimulate collagen production, improve skin hydration and re-densify the dermis.

Lief South Africa Anniversary Giveaway

Lief is a typically Dutch brand, established in the Netherlands in 2005. It was set up as a small collection of high quality baby clothing with texts like ‘lief! and stoer!’ {Respectively meaning, sweet and cool} printed on them.

The brand has developed into a lifestyle concept, including baby articles such as cuddly toys, bedding and books. From day one, the concept was a success. Based on Dutch designs, it has flourished into a wide-ranging lifestyle brand. Not only does it  include high quality clothing for babies and toddlers, but also stationary, personal care products, window decoration, bags, bed and bath textiles, paint, soft toys, furniture, wallpaper, wall decoration and playroom accessories.

Within only six years, lief lifestyle has realized over 170 points of sale, including 17 flagship stores all over Europe, and is developing markets in the Middle East.

In June 2012, lief decided to introduce their stunning products, to the South African market and launched their online webshop.

It has also been a lifelong ambition of Lief, founder, Yvonne Woudsta, to give back to society and be able to do something for those less fortunate, especially babies and children, in need. Thanks to the success of Lief, her dream has been realized. Lief supports Orange Babies, a charity organization whose main goal is to help HIV-infected (pregnant) women and their babies in Africa. Lief also supports the project Hope Village, in Namibia, this orphanage, provides refuge to children up to the age of 18. (Lief provides 100% of the financing for the baby and toddler department).

To celebrate the 1st year anniversary of lief in South Africa, two lucky readers can each win a lief  T-shirt – one for a girl in fuchsia pink – with lief! (sweet) written on it and one for a boy, in turquoise – with stoer! (cool) written on it.
