Tuesday Thrills - Genevieve Motley Jewellery

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am always proud to feature South African designers on my blog. Especially when they are as talented as <i>Genevieve Motley</i>. This Durban-based jewellery designer has a flair for modern and unusual designs. She creates enchanting and unique earrings, brooches, pendants and rings, all handcrafted using materials like Jacaranda wood and perspex. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I like that she provides jewellery lovers with an alternative to flashy and more ostentatious pieces. Her whimsical pieces define 'simple beauty', and are inspired by elements of nature, such as flowers, rabbits, hearts and birds. Genevieve's swallow motif has become somewhat of a signature piece amongst local fashion fans. These are some of my favourite pieces from her extensive collection.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWmN5KL1HuXRzRvapZz1gxmY7FHWCuZXcEJOznD8uELhrfX2qecxLV6yuynR7Voy538Njc7uGPoZxOVETagJa-MgMUp2CXm_KlXwkZGa0cMbrDikcLe7eiPdxUJYjeScFKaFZL-7U9FWHB/s1600/motley.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWmN5KL1HuXRzRvapZz1gxmY7FHWCuZXcEJOznD8uELhrfX2qecxLV6yuynR7Voy538Njc7uGPoZxOVETagJa-MgMUp2CXm_KlXwkZGa0cMbrDikcLe7eiPdxUJYjeScFKaFZL-7U9FWHB/s640/motley.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1.

Billowing halter neck gowns were seen in several colours at Habits.

Colours at Cape Town Fashion Week 2011

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Colour Trends</span></span></span></b><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">Cape Town Fashion Week 2011<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><br /><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Times;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"></span></span></span></b></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For me, trends always begin with colour. They are the building blocks of any collection, a palette upon which a design is inspired. Cape Town Fashion Week showed off a multitude of striking shades for Spring/Summer 2011/2012. From brights to whites and all that's in between, here are the biggest colour trends for the next season.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">Brights</span></span></b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu-jlwz5n4gFWarmm3yKY2ytEplME9vgtX7_ISTkzRge5NB2CUab9eJUPSWyiLrHnF9HdmUkvhz498fSuvLOYeWsBHVH7OjIjrf1xNnuL0O7IMEyzX2pRzjqmDHzWKIBpGppEgaYQMOtk/s1600/colour+ctfw.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="442" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu-jlwz5n4gFWarmm3yKY2ytEplME9vgtX7_ISTkzRge5NB2CUab9eJUPSWyiLrHnF9HdmUkvhz498fSuvLOYeWsBHVH7OjIjrf1xNnuL0O7IMEyzX2pRzjqmDHzWKIBpGppEgaYQMOtk/s640/colour+ctfw.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A rainbow of eye-catching colours sizzled on the runway. Orange and navy reigned supreme, falling in with overseas trends. I don't really like orange but I do love the ruffled <i>Stephania Morland</i> dress (pictured fourth on the top row). Yellow was seen in lemon, lime, chartreuse and gold. Cerise pink and bright violet made a bold appearance. Blues were popular, from aqua to royal blue and indigo. I like the combination of blues in the stunning chiffon gown by <i>Danielle</i> <i>Margaux</i> (pictured fifth on the bottom row).</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">Black and White</span></span></b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgDhqzX0T3uSiZZ0dqFZ1Pfqm297-5LzkxDWd9YywIqj5PSVbiTGyi3ZwYyDSeYa7f-w8cRAQKmlCQmUlEYclbHpdsYt-G-5iNOiUQdpgx3TFvM1Y0Z1NgY8vFhwwvYoykOcwHoZgIuJE/s1600/colour+ctfw+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgDhqzX0T3uSiZZ0dqFZ1Pfqm297-5LzkxDWd9YywIqj5PSVbiTGyi3ZwYyDSeYa7f-w8cRAQKmlCQmUlEYclbHpdsYt-G-5iNOiUQdpgx3TFvM1Y0Z1NgY8vFhwwvYoykOcwHoZgIuJE/s640/colour+ctfw+2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Black and white are timeless as well as seasonless. Although many of the designers displayed <i>their </i>version of a long white dress; round and v-necks, slits and flowing fabrics were a common denominator. Black dresses were shown from short to long lengths. <i>Lisp</i> showed a chic black catsuit with floppy hat. The silhouette of the <i>Abigail Betz</i> gown with bateau neck (fifth on bottom row) is very 'Elie Saab' like. </span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">Neutrals</span></span></span></b></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQtvKkauUN_qrTPERnKo31VpuY7WiLBz_gsaU2vOHgeVxYciJEOJKkEmSYkDcB0QatPxbVfm1bb_gpV3Ejgh9AN0Tw2FBNfMwoeD46jvqepHWkzme91-UkurODULv8dTantTMbqHfoA18/s1600/colour+ctfw+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQtvKkauUN_qrTPERnKo31VpuY7WiLBz_gsaU2vOHgeVxYciJEOJKkEmSYkDcB0QatPxbVfm1bb_gpV3Ejgh9AN0Tw2FBNfMwoeD46jvqepHWkzme91-UkurODULv8dTantTMbqHfoA18/s640/colour+ctfw+3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">An earthy-inspired palette of colours ran across all collections.
