mEN'S sUMMER eSSENTIALS - iTS A sHOE iN PART 1





It's being a while since my last post and I have to admit I've being extremely busy working on a couple of different projects from co-designing and making a new range of denim and leather bags, working on 2 new food and wine projects and finishing a new dance track I helped co-write and sing on.

Now I haven't had time to even think about prepping my Spring/Summer wardrobe until I had to take a private styling client shopping last Saturday. I spent the week sourcing items for her wardrobe and amidst my frantic sourcing trips took note of my must haves for Summer.

This is my first pick for my Spring/Summer wardrobe a staple must have item that'll keep me going all Summer.From Country Road comes this beige, leather and canvas - tennis style shoe. The sole is a thinner one to most similar shoes and the beige sets it apart from the more common white ones. teamed with a pair of rolled up chino's or dark blue denims they work as both a night alternative or daytime wear.
So head in before they go, at the steal price of $49.95 they're sure to disappear quickly.

Plenty to do with Dukkah @ The Souk

The 3 different Dukkah flavours

On a cold and rainy day last week I had the pleasure of being invited by the lovely folk at http://www.markcomms.com.au/ to attend a food product launch at the beautiful Souk in The City. Table of Plenty an Australian company that makes a range of beautiful Dukkah products put on a delicious lunch to bring more awareness to the range. I must admit prior to the lunch I hadn't realised I could purchase yummy Australian made Dukkah in the supermarket.
The lovely owner of Souk in The City demonstrated 3 different entrees using the 3 different Dukkah's, and lunch served was absolutely delicous. Considering I'm on a fitness regime the products fit right in to my diet healthy, delicous, easy to use and easily accesible.
It was definitely a nice change to attend a Sydney product launch that was all about the product in the truest sense of the word. So next time in your local Coles or Woolworths pick up a packet of Dukkah, 
hop on line @ www.tableofplenty.com.au for recipes and enjoy because I've definitely had fun experimenting with my products.
