Win with Trinket Trove

While at the Hair2Go launch last week, I bumped into the sisters of Trinket Trove. I fell in love with their jewellery the moment they showcased them.


I tend to think that all jewellery are the same but these ladies really offer some unique products. I was amazed by their Inspirational wraps. It’s a long chain of pendants with inspirational words on them that can be worn as a necklace, bracelet and even an anklet. How cool is it to look down at your wrist to see some beautiful inspirational words. Sometimes that’s all you need to cut through life’s stresses. The Inspirational wraps come in 3 different categories: Crystal Wraps (glass crystals with inspirational words), African Wraps (African charms with inspirational words) and Standard Wraps (Inspirational words with metal beads).


The next product I loved was a pair of earrings. It had that mismatched-yet-still-goes-together-type theme. The earrings I was given comprised of one earring being a hairdryer and the other a comb! How cute is that? I was ogling through their earring photos on Facebook and I found another pair I love – a wine bottle and a wine glass. If you like the normal matching earrings, don’t despair – most of their earrings are made like that.


Their latest product range introduces the small wraps and Love necklaces which will be in stores shortly.


You’re probably wondering what's the damage on these items and you’ll be surprised to know how affordable they are. The prices range from R30 (for certain earrings) to R150 (for the crystal wraps).


If you’re interested in their products, it is sold at Crafters Market Stores at Cradlestone Mall, Clearwater Mall, The Glen Shopping Centre, Woodlands Boulevard and The Grove Mall. Watch out for them as they’ll be expanding into more Crafters Markets Stores over the next few months.


If you absolutely can’t wait to get your hands on one, you can contact them on Twitter and Facebook.



And the best part is that ladies at Trinket Trove are giving away a hamper of some of their products worth over R700 to one of my lucky readers. Here's what you can win!
- 1 3-braid-with-chain bracelet
- 1 love bracelet

Hair2Go

Last week I was invited to the launch of Hair2Go at Blo Hairdressing Salon. Now, despite my long tresses, I don't frequent salons much but I loved Blo's look. I has such a young and vibey feel - I can definitely see myself getting my next haircut here.


Hair2Go is all about being able to style your hair differently for any occasion in only a few minutes. It's for busy woman who are always on the go. I'm blessed with long hair but my usual "styles" involve me leaving my hair loose or tying it up in a pony tail. I was amazed by the hairstyles that these ladies come out in. They modeled a day look for their hair and then in a few minutes, they completely transformed their hair into a night look...right in front of us and all by themselves. I was amazed by it!

Two of the transformed night looks

Blo is introducing Hair2Go courses to teach women how to do this on their own. Included in the course will be a bag with all the accessories need to create and transform these looks. Snacks and drinks will be served along with a step-by-step manual to take home so you'll never forget what's taught in the classes. I think I definitely need to go to one of these courses.

If you are interested in the Hair2Go classes, you can contact Blo Hairdressing Salon on Twitter, @blohairsalon.
