Spar womans race 2012

This past weekend's adventures: SA's most beautiful road race with Spar 2012

This was my second Spar race (my previous one was last year). I am not a pro runner or do fun runs/walks often but I like taking part in this specific one because it's really fun. Over 25 000 woman and men running for fun and charity is always eventfull.

My boyfriend, a few friends and I took part this year. The atmosphere is always really awesome. Guy's dressing as ladies, shouting things like, "As jy buig, is jy myne" (If you bend, you're mine), made my day. The weather was perfect and I put tons of sunscreen on so didn't get an inch of sunburn. *YAY*

Here is my short gallery of the walk.

Moi at the finish line. I WIN! *I wish*
Medal and goodie bag, Check!
High five to the organisers of this race as it was another complete success. We appreciate your expertise in controlling 25000 people while still making it super fun and SA's biggest race!
Cant wait for next year's race!

I bake cupcakes!

I've gone into a venture with Sweet Heart Candy Buffets in assisting with making cupcakes for their candy buffets. Baking cupcakes became a hobby for me and I couldn't resist taking the opportunity to make cute cupcakes for weddings, birthday parties etc.

Here are cupcakes I did for a Bridal Shower two weeks ago :)






Sweet Heart Candy Buffets beautiful work!

Like 'Claire's cupcakes' on Facebook where I will be posting all the cupcake galleries.

Marilyn's Boutique

There's this little boutique in Brooklyn Mall (Pretoria) that I can never stay out of whenever I pass by. "Marilyns Boutique is more than just an ordinary store, it's your best friends' closet!"
Their fashion items are so up my ally! I usually try and stay away from boutiques because they tend to be rather pricey and their sales assistants are so rude but Marilyn's is really reasonable with their clothing and they have super friendly satff.

Here are some of their suggested looks: Winter/Spring 2012

Sometimes I'm tempted to slap the manaquins...they don't even realise how fantastic they look, its such a waste. I'd love to be their "live manaquin" :P *mental-breakdown-kinda-moment*

I picked up this uber-fluffy jersey/dress for R180

and some Pastel tights for R49!

If you're in the area, stop by and take a peak at what they have to offer!
Like their Facebook Page and follow them on Twitter for pics and sale news!

I'm sending some blogging love to Marilyn's Botique. Keep doing what you're doing!
