Next week Cara will start a week long pop-up restaurant inspired by Epping market with Hannerie Visser. So this week I helped Cara style the space for their dinner celebration! Cara declared her love for the Epping Market before but this time she can act on that love and you can join her and experience a bit of Epping Market, without having to wake up at 4am. Please join them for a unusual evening filled with creative quirks and great food. 

Bookings can be made: hannerie@thepresident.co.za

Milla's Batmitzvah


This was the delightful celebration of a young girl turning 13 years old. The theme for the event was Rock Chic with a palette of cerise, soft pink and punk black with a touch of sparkle. We transformed the family home into a party venue with hot pink tent as focal point, shabby chic comfy lounge spaces, piƱatas filled with sweets and gifts for the girls, pompoms, origami chandelier, butterflies and pink orchids. I decided to give this girl a wishing balloon tree (3m high) that was displayed in the garden. She wrote her wishes onto her wishing notes, attached them to the balloons and let them disappear into the sky! The dessert table, which was to die for, was styled as a tiered skirt, with customised sweets, designer cake pops and pink lemonade by Cara.
