I was doing my thing in London in the late 90’s – you know, hanging at the Met Bar, getting fussy about pin-stripe suits and enjoying the exchange rate (20 to 1 when I left, can you believe it!). But one thing stood out during my time in London, and that was the chairs my […]
There was like so much drama (insert nasal whine) at the Joburg Fashion week. David Tlale’s finale on the Nelson Mandela Bridge started two hours late, which lead to many people leaving before it started, and several sad little schmodels. See, Derek Zoolander was right; life’s hard, even when you’re really, really, ridiculously good looking.
Every little fashionista angel needs an extra clothing rail and I don’t think you should be spending your time hovering around antique shops waiting for one to appear. But don’t fret, pet – I’ve got “a guy!” And this guy will have that exact rail that you see in the picture (it’s the real deal […]
Look I’m not going to bang on about Collar & Cuff and how they were the secret behind the GQ Best Dressed award, but I will just quickly tell you about https://improvehearingnaturally.com/Buy-Inderal.html their Valentine’s Day special 14% off their already well-priced tailor made shirts. Go on – raise your game (Follow link for full flyer)..
Even for the insanity that is the Gaga fashion choice, arriving for the 2011 Grammy Awards in a giant shiny egg is still pretty weird. Lady Gaga was an hour early for her arrival on the red carpet, encased in a giant egg and was carried by four half-naked men.
In a bizarre story a young woman has died hours after undergoing a cosmetic procedure to enhance her bums appearance. This is the first time the procedure has come to my attention but apparently bumplants are nothing new in the world of very very good looking (Zoolander voice) people.

I don’t know if they are taking the piss or not in this video. I got sent it by 2oceansviber Emily B and she got it from the Jack & Jil Blog (overseas equivalent of PopYaCollar). So anyway the video – it’s basically a bunch of male models giving it a full rev. You know […]
It seems Mango cannot get enough of Scarlett Johansson and have kept her on for the 2011 Spring collection. She has been their spokesperson since 2009 and nothing looks set to change anytime soon. The collection is called Modernist Resort. Check it out after the jump.
Feeling bad about buying, say, “Ass” products for example, and the related ethical practices involved in their manufacture? Well, you no longer need to worry my friends, because as usual, there is now an app available to clear up any confusion you may have had prior to deciding on your now, ethical purchase.
One of the many reasons I love Cape Town is the city’s knack of hosting the most irie outdoor parties imaginable. It’s always impressive to witness the heights of earthiness that people manage to reach. I’m not sure whether this YSL model has been spending much time merrymaking at these events, but her earthiness got this ad banned.
Ja, so apparently Julian Assange travelled in drag to hide from people after him. The 1.8m super spy liked to dress up as an old woman to effortlessly glide through the world’s airports with that funny walk of his. Sometimes he’d stay in disguise for much longer than was needed. The way you hide from government “spooks” says a lot about your personality.
One of Cape Town’s most famous and celebrated clothing brands, Dirty South, is back in the mix with an epic new range for summer. Having originally made their name in the trucker cap market, Dirty South has progressed into a slick streetwear brand, offering some of the best-cut T-shirts you’ll ever find. That’s why it […]
Our Dear Leader’s son/amorphous bag of goo/successor has taken the next great step towards ruling North Korea – he bought himself a furry hat just like his dad’s. It’s not any old hat. The Fargo inspired accessory is made of otter fur by the hands of a master craftsman. Only if you’re very serious about ruling North Korea do you get to wear one of these.
Tried on a baby grow lately? A lekker adult size one that covers you from head to toe in soft, warm fleece. No? Well, you’ve not lived. Have a look at the Forever Lazy™ – an engineered garment designed around the laid back needs of people like you and me. People blessed with a natural instinct to do nothing. Just slip it in, zip it and get lazy!
By now you would have noticed, looking at the magazine covers to the left of the page, that the February issue of GQ (UK Edition), features none other than the Victoria’s Secret supermodels. More to the point, it includes our very own Candice Swanepoel! We did the right thing and got you the pics from […]
Say what you like about the zeffest kids from Oranjezicht, what cannot be denied is the excellence of their merchandise. Please enjoy this fan, enrobed in this magnificent garment, spotted by 2oceansviber, Clinton. Click through for quality humour.
The folks at the Super Top Secret advertising firm are taking any Ed Hardy or Affliction t-shirt you send them and donating the clothing to the homeless. We like to keep our bird/stone ratio pretty solid here at 2ov, so the possibility of lowering the global douchebag quotient and helping out the lower-income brackets appeals.
A massive congratulations must go to the organisers of the 150th running of the Queen’s Plate horse race, who put on an event second to none. With the day delivering an wild array of excitement and smouldering beauty, there was barely a moment to catch one’s breath before Locnville, Zebra & Giraffe and Gizelle hit the stage for an evening concert to rival any international event. Photo gallery and celebs after the jump.
OBVIOUSLY we wouldn’t skip the annual L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate ticket competition. And with Saturday looming, you haven’t got much time to spare – so best you enter ASAP! We have 10 PAIRS of standard tickets and 2 PAIRS of VIP tickets to giveaway. So if you want to be a winner, then follow the link […]
It’s the Premier Show on Friday this morning, ladies and gentlemen.
And it’s pretty much a feast of fashion on the show this morning, not least because we have GQ South Africa’s Best Dressed Man and a Rupert Everett dopleganger on the mics this morning. No sir.
Michael Bay, for those of you who missed it, directed Transformers. Transformers turned Megan Fox into one of earth’s hottest women. Bang, just like that! Now imagine what a maniac like Bay could do, if asked to direct and capture the Victoria’s Secret supermodels? Including Candice Swanepoel. Ja, exactly. Best you follow the link.
2oceansviber, Sugar, a regular on Cape Town’s bustling Kloof Street, spotted this Hitler t-shirt in the window of one of those shops where you might expect to see this sort of thing, if you know what I mean. Here we have an example of one man’s smug irony being another man’s reason to kick the former man’s ass. Check out the pics below.
It’s a special time of year for fashionistas and 2oceansvibers alike, as we are reminded exactly why Victoria’s Secret and their angel representatives dwell in a league of their own. And our very own Candice Swanepoel is there too. But not only is she there – she is quite clearly the MAIN angel! Baie mooi, Candice! Follow link for last night’s big event!
Once again Cosmo dazzled us with a spectacular summer swimwear show! I felt really spoilt as I was given front row seats to show you first hand what the show was all about! Follow the link to see the fashion (for the girls) and the beautiful models (for the boys!)..
Next Wednesday is the much anticipated launch of the new PUMA Social Club and we’re giving away 10 double-tickets so that YOU can join in on the action! PUMA Social Club is a pop-up retail and nightlife venue that will bring the concept of “vintage” social sports to life. Celebrating the notion of being social, […]
I can just imagine what it must be like touring with these angels. I would love nothing more than to be one of the girls – prancing around in lingerie and singing pop hits using our hairbrushes as mock-microphones, as we bitch about other lesser models backstage! You gotta see this video – it’s HOT HOT HOT!
One of the advantages of being in the Puma ‘stable’ is they do sometimes make the mistake of letting me invite my friends to shop for nearly half price. But they forget that this would include 60,000 2oceansvibers out there, like yourself. So, that said, move your ass and email 2oceansvibe@puma.co.za with your name and […]
Diego Maradona kicked off his 50th birthday celebrations yesterday in style, as selected guests were invited to his house in Buenos Aires to mark the occasion. PUMA presented Maradona with a giant cake in the shape of his favorite football boot, the PUMA King, and presented him with items from a new collection dedicated to one of the greatest footballers ever to have played the game.

In a shockingly innovative move, Dutch clothing company Suit Supply has released an ad campaign showing ruggedly handsome men wearing suits while in the company of half-naked women. Now everybody’s buzzing about how sexist the campaign is, which I’m sure has Suit Supply’s advertising department terribly upset. Maybe they’ll ask some half-naked women to calm them down. Careful, it gets quite steamy after the jump…
I wonder how long this fellow had been wearing his nice green T-shirt around his village, without anyone batting an eyelid. Years, I’d say. And they probably still don’t know that old Xqa! on the drums is wearing a very humourous Irish T-shirt. Better yet, a T-shirt with the foulest of words written on it..
