My friend Kristin is opening up her very own Black Betty jewellery store in the Bryanston Shopping Centre, Cnr William Nicol/ Ballyclaire Drive. Her stuff is so so pretty and delicate and pretty and I just want everything. I’m not sure it’s a good thing that she now has a shop I can visit anytime. I have blogged about her stuff before, just click here to have a bit of a online drool.

So it’s nearly Christmas time, nearly time for everyone to shutdown their work computer, say good bye to all their work colleagues and get the flip out of the office for a few weeks. I love this time of year, you can feel the air change and the spirit of the holiday season giddy-up into town, I love it.

GIVEAWAY: It’s Christmas Bonanza tiiiiimmmme on Lucky Pony #LuckyBonanza

December 5, 2013

1-gift

So it is nearly Christmas time, it’s nearly time for all of us (hopefully most of us) to go on holiday and forget about all work related responsibilities and just eat as much food as humanly possible. Well, this is at least what I plan on doing in the the next couple of weeks, for a couple of weeks.

But before I stock up on elasticated waist pants for the holidays, I thought I would host one final bonanza of a giveaway on my blog just to say thanks to all the awesome support that you have shown this Lucky Pony over the years AND to showcase some of my most favourite favourite LOCAL designers, whose stuff I think is beyond awesome and would all be very welcome in my present stash.

Black Betty who I have blogged about in the past has just come out with some brand new designs called The Polki Diamond range, which contains super pretty pieces all designed using uncut and unpolished diamonds, which gives this jewellery such a different and unique look. Love how dainty and precious looking each thing is, I can only imagine that they look as delicate on as they do in these photos. I think the bangles are my most favourite things.

1954: Behind the scenes of Creature From the Black Lagoon

A friend of mine called Verushka pinned the image below of the skeleton riders, which I thought was just so cool, so I went in search of the site that it came from. It wasn’t too hard to find, but that is besides the point. What I did find is a plethora of amazing vintage photos like this one, some with famous people in them, some not, some of well known moments in time, some just random shots of super cool things, spaces and places.
