The Audra - Do We Love It?

While I'm back to my full time bag obsession, I found one I'd like to share with you.

My regular readers know I'm a big time GoldenBleu fan, so much so, I've made Tiger Tem their first African stockist. Bold move to stock another brand of handbags but the proof was in the pudding as we sold over 85% of our GoldenBleu stock the day we launched it.

So new collection, new dilemmas on what to choose.

Ladies and Gentlemen I present, The Audra.






Its cute and perfectly formed with quilting reminiscent of Chanel (and Marc Jacobs), the signature gold finishings add a touch of bling and this raspberry colour patent leather and fuchsia suede lining looks good enough to eat.

The chainlink shoulder strap is detachable so it has the versatility to be used as a shoulder bag or a clutch depending on your preference. And the little coin purse bit at the front is detachable which is fabulous (and yes it attaches very securely, I've checked) as if you decide to separate them you've got a cute little coin purse too.



Your opinions please.

Tiger Tem Launches GoldenBleu this SATURDAY!

Hey people, Its been a ridiculously busy week for me so sorry for not updating. And naturally when you don't have time for these things is when something like the internet packing up happens. Anyway today its working so let me not jinx myself by complaining!


The GoldenBleu launch is tomorrow and I am officially EXCITED! There's a bit of a buzz going so I'm sure we'll get a good turnout and the bags are so absolutely fabulous they definitely sell themselves.


GoldenBleu is the hottest handbag brand from California.

Launched in 2004, GoldenBleu quickly distinguished itself with its striking designs and luxurious Italian leathers in bold, unique colours…and they continue to seduce shoppers the world over.

Since the company’s launch, celebrity trendsetters have sought out their little pieces of GoldenBleu. The bags have been spotted with Cameron Diaz, Rachel Bilson, Eva Longoria, Lucy Liu, Halle Berry, Nicole Richie, Amerie, Beyonce, Jessica Alba…to name a few.

The accessories brand is sold in over 300 boutiques and high end department stores such as Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom, across America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

And Tiger Tem is ecstatic to be their first AFRICAN stockist!

The collection will hit the shop floor on Saturday 22nd March. From 12 noon onwards.
Tiger Tem, 22 Musa Yaradua Street, Off Idowu Martins, VI.

See you there.

Its All About The Shoes

I always love the turn of the fashion season. Usually after we've gotten bored of the increasingly monotonous red carpet events...they give us the good stuff that is the Spring/Summer collections.

A few trends I've noticed and I'm loving are the bold bright candy coloured hues, the safari inspired clothes and er, gold. I used to hate gold accessories but now I love them so that works for me too.

Shoes - United Nude
I'm in love with their shoes. I think I'm going to get these. They're so unusual aren't they?

Earrings - Roberta Chiarella
Fabulous. And I'm very pleased to be their first African stockist.

Bag - GoldenBleu
Soon to be found in a Tiger Tem near you....LOVE IT!

Sunglasses - Tiger Tem
The rather sexy Carrie's are just so cute when they're worn. If I was really greedy, I'd keep them for myself.

Ring - Tiger Tem
Yep, I keep using this ring because I love it, I have it and I really do wear it all the time.

Dress - Old Navy
Check them out as they have the BEST safari inspired collection I've seen on the high street.

Speaking of which...you sooo have to buy these shoes!

Women: Women's Canvas Wedges - Red They're a "shoe-in" to become the season's most stylish footwear! Sturdy washed canvas and strappy details give the upper a sizzling tropic vibe, while the stacked wooden wedge keeps you standing tall. - Criss-cross adjustable straps with faux-leather trim Rounded toe 4" stacked wooden wedge Textured outsole

$35? Is that a joke (I'm used to pounds ...or as my friend Renaissance Man said, the only currency so hard it has a surname - sterling). They come in this divine bordeaux, khaki and black....oh, I'm getting distracted. Seen shoes, must buy...ciao!

Tiger Tem says Vote Or Die

Now that I've got your attention.

GoldenBleu is a new Californian handbag brand I've become a little obsessed with. More than a little obsessed actually. Its the first time pretty much since I started Tiger Tem I've actually cheated and bought a bag from another brand. That's loyalty I know but I am my own best PR. But they really had me at hello.


This is the Luella. LOVE IT!

What colour would you get it in?

And while I'm asking the questions....

And the last question...Choose as many as apply to you.
