Tebazile LifeStyle

Not only is the Fall/Holiday issue of Lifestyle Magazine a gem because the ever so sexy Kris Jenner graces the cover but because Tebi Jewels has an eye popping spread in the fashion shoot pages!

With rings like these who needs anything else?

The bold colours and simplicity of the rings make them versatile and a beautifully unique add on to any outfit.

With a wide range of shapes, colours and sizes Tebazile has a ring for everybody’s fingers!

All in your Head

We all own a piece of headgear.

Whether it’s a cap to imitate Cara Develigne, a turban to hide our roots, a floppy hat to do 70’s retro chic, a bandana to wear on throwback Thursday or a fascinator at the ready for when the next wedding bells ring we all have something at the back of our wardrobes to fashionably decorate our head!

Possibly one of the most useful items within the fashion industry, headgear, has been considered an ever changing but never fading fashion staple.

From celebrities to us mere mortals, we have utilized different headgear for different occasions, moods and purposes.

Fashion helps us identify and showcase our individuality to the world and accessories are the extras that make it fun.

Tebazile has created a one off silvery silk piece of heaven that would make anyone want to have a bad hair day!

A Man with a Plan

Tebazile has been renowned for carefully designing, creating and offering a beautifully bespoke jewellery collection for women.

With a growing celebrity fan base and taking the American press by storm it is slowly but surely making its mark in the jewellery world in a truly international fashion.

With the best quality products, unbeatable prices and inimitable nature that is envied by many Tebazile is one of the most sought after jewellery brands of its time.

However with the limelight on its stunning collections for women, the jewellery lines made for men with as much love and passion have been overlooked.

Tebazile has put a focus on mens jewellery to highlight the lack of it in the fashion industry at the moment.

With bold but simple pendants on long chains, crucifixes that make up the core of the mens line in different sizes and shades, exclusive cuffs and plain rings there is no denying that mens jewellery is as hot as womens.

To celebrate the introduction of Tebazile in Kenya, the fashion show featured earlier on the blog, used the opportunity to embrace mens jewellery and fashion by including pieces on the catwalk and ensuring appreciation for the need to accessorize male fashion.

With the simplest of ensembles the very attractive male models paced the runway with an air of confidence, appeal and charm, all adorned with Tebazile jewels.

Picture Perfect

In recent months Tebazile has gained some fabulous coverage in the US press that has portrayed the jewellery in such a way that it is the main focus of each image.

The boldness of the brand is so palpable in these pictures because they manage to bring Tebazile to life, showcasing it in different settings and proving that this is a brand that can be worn to suit a variety of styles.

Bello mag used a simple backdrop with the focal shade being the dreamy azure of the sky on a rooftop capturing the soul of the neck pieces and ensuring all attention are on them.

The structured, unique and lavishly outstanding pieces were the key in each photograph with the eye instantly drawn toward the necklaces and their appeal.

In another shot they focused on simple backdrop yet again with the model elegantly sitting on a chair and a window view cascading light into the shot.

The gold jewels, necklace and bracelets, adorned her and completed the simple yet sophisticated attire smoothly.

The fall edition of the amazing online fashion magazine, Fantastics, featured samples by Tebazile that they expertly draped over a cute male model proving that accessories are not just a womens game.

  The styles chosen were extremely simple and resonated the core of every Tebazile piece: quality plain gold.

The July/August edition of Industry Magazine ensured that they thought outside the box to deliver an edition that stood out from the other summer editions.

Yes they did include a typical swimwear shoot with gorgeous models making us all wish we had the discipline to ditch the chocolate and vodka, in eye wateringly stunning  swimsuits and bikinis topped off with perfect understated yet fun jewels of bright earrings and tough cuffs for the perfect beach look.

However they also delivered a daringly different shoot filled with an edgy, rocky and distinctive energy that was the unexpected surprise in a July issue.

The pieces with a robust personality really shone in this shoot with the mixed materials, strings, layers, chains all making a statement.

The OTT nature of the pieces can really be admired and the oomph that the shoot conveys to the audience is so strong it makes you want to get your best rock gear on and do jumping jacks!

The more one sees images like all of the above, the more Tebazile speaks. 

A Story In The Making

This month has seen the debut of the much anticipated Los Angeles Fashion Magazine.

The issue, featuring the gorgeous and feisty Lisa Vanderpump on the cover, is a little pot of gold with the magazine delving into all things fashion, men and womens as well as beauty and celeb interview.

All in all an incredibly prestigious debut of a magazine that is sure to go a long way.

Tebazile was picked as a story for this first issue and features the director and creator, Elizabeth Dankaro, who offers and insight into the brand and the world of Tebazile.

With a celebrity fan base established and the brand rapidly growing both within the US as well as Africa, its popularity as well as its success is also growing and developing.

The brand to watch is definitely tebazile so make sure you log on to http://issuu.com/thelafashion/docs/thelafashionoctobersmall/51?e=4309737/5159477 and read a gem of a story!

A Showroom Dream

A showroom of any type is possibly one of the most important ingredients for a brands recipe for success.

It is a go to point for customers, an attraction pool for potential new clientele, proof of progress for the fan base as well as being the visual epitome of the brand values.

With Tebazile it has been said that the hand crafted, individual, uniquely different pieces are not just part of a mere jewellery collection. Instead each necklace, bracelet, anklet, ring, chocker that has been created with painstaking attention to detail, handpicked stones, quality materials and a love and passion that not only means the collections are always strong but that each jewel is a piece of art within its own right.

The idea is that Tebazile dresses you in strong, bold, daring pieces that ooze confidence and strength; they dress you not only in jewels but in art.

With this in the showroom in Accra, Ghana had to be set up so that the essence of the brand is not lost but proudly displayed.

The dark wooden furniture to display the jewellery is resilient, simple yet eye catching, just like the jewels that carefully and magically adorn it.

The dark tiled floor is a shocking contrast to the pure white walls, giving the room a monochrome edge to it and enveloping the whole atmosphere in a stylish, sophisticated and rich spirit.

The photographs that can be admired embellishing the white walls in dark frames to match the furniture are the pinch of salt always needed in any recipe.

Not only do they effortlessly give a personal touch which makes it welcoming and and warm but it also showcases Tebazile on a whole different dimension than just as pieces of jewellery in a shop.

It gives the brand the credibility, authority and sincerity it has earnt by displaying its versatility on the walls and by doing so naturally attracting more customers.

However the main ingredient, the spice that gives the whole recipe the kick is of course the collection.

Tebazile can be admired all round as it prettifies, embellishes, decorates, adorns and completes the showroom.

It gives it life with colourful beads, statement rings in different shapes and sizes, earrings for any and every occasion, necklaces in a multitude of styles, shades and lengths.

There really is something for everyone and with each piece being one of a kind it is no surprise that Tebazile has made a name for itself as the go to brand for something truly unique and beautiful.

Catwalk Ready

There is one thing that every brand aspires to with each collection they present to the world, pieces that are so fabulous they could be mistaken for being stolen from the catwalk.

When designers unveil their much awaited SS and AW collections at fashion shows around the world a frenzy of new lust lists, must haves and trends unfolds.

In the midst of the mayhem brands making a name for themselves fight to design something that will title them a groundbreaking, unique and memorable brand.

There are names that copy catwalk looks so much so that they look identical except for the exact materials sourced and used in their creation which as catwalk copies are by far the best but as for making their name worthy as a jewellery/clothing or shoe brand within its own right perhaps they fall a bit short.

Their momentum is short lived as their pieces sell out at high street prices because us mere mortals want to look like the models that have graced he recent Milan,Paris,NY and London stages but once a new trend looms the items are discarded into our closet and the name of the brand temporarily forgotten until they produce yet another fashion mimic.

That is something that is quite remarkable about Tebazile.

Here is a brand that not only ensures the best possible materials are used but creates collections that resemble the trends that have taken the fashion world by storm but keeps its signature style making them pieces that are catwalk worthy but with their personal signature.

By creating cuffs, rings and necklaces that are similar in style to those on the likes of Cara Develigne but infusing the semi precious stones, colour injections and gold plated materials, Tebazile always keeps its identity.

We have seen that once again chunky jewels are the tastiest thing on the menu this autumn with cuffs (as mentioned in a precious blog) took the catwalks by storm with Christopher Kane unveiling a marvel of metal arm candy lusted after by many as well as a newly found love for adorning ones fingers with as many rings as possible to give the winter jacket an instant update.

The fall collections for Chloe as well as Dior are made up of cute, dainty and stone worked rings that make us remember why even just worn by themselves, rings can be an effortless fashion statement and should never be underestimated.

Tebazile introduces such a large collection of bracelets and cuffs that it is incredibly enviable.

With its signature outstandingly eye catching stones and remarkable hand work each piece is one of a kind and a beautiful nod to the arm candy trend.

Its rings are caged in gold plated settings and uniquely versatile with a pretty yet statement character to them. 

Lord Of The Rings

There are some things that women are just innately better than men at: talking about their feelings, cleaning and never being wrong. Then there are things that men are better than women at: watching football, forgetting an anniversary and parking.

But who would have thought that in the jewellery world the men would be taking centre stage along women and rocking jewels as well as we do...but that is indeed the case!

The SS14 mens fashion catwalks were filled with abundant accessories and jewels decorating the already handsome hotties wearing the latest collections from the top designers.

There were chunky chains, layered, simple yet effective watches as colour pops to outfits, metal hoop earrings, sophisticated badges and classy brooches.

All the accessories embellished the ensembles and brought them to life on a totally different dimension, they looked fierce.

One of the most notably recurring jewellery trend was that of simple chunky rings, Costume National, Saint Laurent, Astrid Anderson and Versace all jumped on the bandwagon and Tebazile has created a spectacular mens rings collection that will make any man go from drab to fab in a second!

Made To Model

There is usually one piece that from each catwalk show that steals the limelight.

In the case of the SS14 runways, there was one piece of jewellery that had everyone talking and mentally spending their yearly salary.

Dolce and Gabbanas coin inspired OTT gold and wooden necklace set the catwalk on fire.

Draped over a beautifully simple black dress the necklace did all the talking, styling and winning.

With its simplicity, ethnic edge and statement quality this necklace made everyone want to dig into their purse, find the biggest coins they owned and start making necklaces!

Tebi Jewels has of course created its personal interpretation of what an OTT necklace should be... and there is no denying that it would certainly turn heads.

By wisely using the art of layering chunky and more demure pieces from its collection Tebi Jewels shows us how its done on a budget recreating a look that is fashion forward and unique.

Tebazile and Tebi also offers an alternative take on the OTT necklace trend.

Sticking to what it is known for, Tebazile presents pieces that are mixing materials, stones and colours with intricate work creating necklaces like no other.

THE FACE BEHIND THE BRAND

A brand always has its core values and staple that make it recognizable, unique and exclusive.

Tebazile, as a celebrated jewellery brand, has always maintained its core grace and panache with each and every one of its collections.

It pushes the boundaries with the mixture of materials, colours and styles in order to upkeep its momentum, ensure to offer something revitalizing and exciting to existing customers and introduce a pinch of daring style to new ones.

With elegance, simplicity and originality at the heart of every piece one can’t help but wonder the beautiful brain behind such a fabulous brand.

Elizabeth Dankaro, creative director, is the individual behind such a passionate vision and belief that with effort, desire and ambition has established Tebazile as one of the must have jewellery brands around.

Elizabeth began creating pieces after noticing a gap in the market purely by coincidence.

Setting out to find unique jewellery with a twist to no avail as she found nothing appealed to her taste she began creating her own jewellery and this would mark the beginning of something life changing.

With soul and passion Tebazile was born and nurtured and Elizabeth has always maintained that it is not just a brand but a lifestyle filled with confidence, self-belief and conviction.

She has fulfilled an aspiration of bringing to life what was originally just a vision and making it something truly remarkable and beautiful.

She is not just the creative director of this astonishingly distinctive brand but  a strong woman who proves you can make dreams come true.
