A couple of weeks ago I went to a launch at the store which
Missibaba and Kirsten Goss share on Bree Street, Cape Town. This unfortunately
was the same week I lost my camera, so all the pics I took were lost along with
the camera. When I got my new cam I went back and took a coupla pics, the ones
at the top, the rest are press pics from both Missibaba and Kirsten Goss. As
I’ve said before I am huge fan of Missibaba, and whilst I was never really a jewelry
person I’ve been converted by the clean geometric lines of Kirsten’s new “Urban Edge” range. Both
Kirsten and Chloe Townsend from Missibaba did a bit of a collaboration vibe.
Chloe with graphic designer Naomi Bossert and illustrator Mia Nolting to create
three limited edition prints for here “I see the sea and the sea sees me range”
of handbags.
Kirsten on the hand collaborated with graffiti artist Jack
Mantis to create an installation for the store, which you can see in the pic up
top and also the video at the bottom of this post. I’m a total sucker for
creative collaboration so I was quite excited by all this action. Pity I don’t
have pics to show you the full buzz at the actual launch event. Askies.
In other news, sorry for the sporadic posts, well not that
they’ve ever been anything but. I’ve been trying to get back into doing
skattieTV episodes and I’m the slowest amateur video editor ever, but you can
look forward to an episode or two in the next coupla weeks. Lots of pics coming
too. Yay, an entire post with no
swearwords, I’m getting better (or worse) at this, I’ll go and reward myself
with a tub of ice cream now.
