Solange Knowles gets hitched

This year alone the Knowles family has been surrounded by controversy, from Mathew Knowles fathering another child, to Beyonce and JayZ`S divorce rumors and not forgetting the elevator fight between Solange and Jay. Hopefully the event that took place the past weekend will make people forget about what happened.

+Solange Knowles  tied the knot with longtime lover Alan Ferguson in New Orleans in front of her sister +Beyoncé , her 10 year old son from the previous marriage , Daniel Julez Smith Jr, her mother Tina who came with her boo and Brother in law Jay Z, +Janel Monae  and other guests.

 But Beyonce and Jay Z looked more in love than ever on Sunday as they partied the night away in New Orleans to celebrate her sister Solange's nuptials.

Seemingly inspired by the romantic occasion, Bey and Jay couldn't keep their hands off each other and positively beamed with happiness throughout the festivities

 At one point they delightedly chatted to Solange's 10-year-old son, Daniel Julez Smith Jr. embracing each other as they pulled the young boy in for a hug.

ELLE Rising Star Design Award 2014

It’s the first and last article of the month and it’s all thanks to the exams which started at the beginning of the month, they kept me so occupied that I could not attend any functions that I can write about. I have since written four of the exams and I’m left with two which I will write on the 5^th and 6^th of November. I took a break on Wednesday to attend an event hosted by +ELLEMagazineSA.

So, me and a fashionista friend of mine took a Gautrain to Melrose Arch to attend the Annual ELLE RISING STAR DESIGN AWARD in association with +Mr Price / MRP  presented by Africa Fashion International

The event which is hosted annually by ELLE Magazine gives an opportunity to young designers to showcase their designs and compete for the award, the event also attracts a number of designers, fashionista, bloggers and of course celebrities who dressed to the nines for the occasion.

This year`s winner is Tamara Chérie Dyson who sent her #Geometrics SS15 collection down the African Fashion International (AFI) runway. 

Although he did not win the award +Nick Coutts`s beautiful coats also caught my attention
