Durban Day 2014 - late post-

Durban Day 2014 was sizzling.
The heat was overwhelming and so were the artists.
However this event boasted a banging line-up which made the heat bearable.
Style of the day; cropped tops, denim shorts, Aztec printed dresses and high waisted leggings.

The Jazzman.

My father has been a guitarist for many years and along the way he has made many friends. Over the last few years his "best bro" (for the lack of a less young-kid thing to say) and him started a band together, 45th Avenue. Ravi Subramoney is a well known musician in and around Durban and is also a resident actor in the hilarious comedy shows The Dingalings.

Tonight my Dad came home from his weekly band practice and called me to his room. He had just showed me the best gift that he had (and ever will) receive. His  friend Ravi had handcrafted him a guitar and had named it Jazzman after a song my father had written.
What an amazing gift. I just had to post this up on the blog. Art and music is fashion. But friendship is always in style.

"What a journey of joy and mistakes...I built it for a wonderful friend and brilliant musician who penned the song by the same name and many have heard its distinct African beat...Hey Mr. Jazzman play me a tune. It's been so long since we heard you play." - Ravi

Saturday night life- 1 OAK

Night life in Durban is limited to the places we know, which is unfortunate in my opinion, as we boast the most beautiful weather and natural beauty in the country.
However every now and then a new hang out is opened and we all are eager to check  it out.

1 Oak is situated at the roof top above Roma Revolving Restaurant. The view as you can image is spectacular at night. The interior is chic, yet cosy. Even though the interior is all white with colour LEDs, it does not feel cold. Mini screens are placed on the interior walls, with a chic choice of Ftv.
Music played is all old school RnB and Hip Hop.  There is a small dance floor, if you want to dance you can, and if you don't there's enough seating for you to just chill with your drink.
The cover charge for the night is R100 and the wait staff is very friendly.
The only vice of this place is that it is neither a lounge nor club, so you sit there for hours, yet have nothing to eat because they don't offer any food at all.
Other than that I found 1 Oak extremely cool.

Song of the day- Crazy in Love

Everybody needs a song that just gets them in the mood for the weekend.
My pick of the week is Beyonce' - Crazy in love.

Earlier this week I came across this video:http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=624285880983966
on Best of Vines, of this fabulous guy dancing to Crazy in Love, he just made me fall in love with this song all over again. This dude doesn't miss a beat. The booty hop never goes out of fashion guys! Happy Friday.
