George Calombaris dazzles at Salt&Pepper Homewares’ first Launch

Posted by & filed under Thoughts.

In case you have not heard, George Calombaris is now Salt&Pepper Homewares’ cookware ambassador! A personal fan of the ranges and very close friend of the S&P family, George is delighted to be representing the brand.

Last Friday saw the Autumn/Winter 2012 media launch for Salt&Pepper, which, believe it or not, was their first ever!  George entertained guests with an incredible cooking demonstration, replete with delicious and generous tastings.

George gave the latest collections a great work out, focusing heavily on the new Cuisiner, Milan and Soho ranges, and boy did they perform! The white enamel on the inside of the Soho pots and pans has been a real hit with everyone. George gushed over them on The Circle yesterday morning explaining how he loved that you could see every little ingredient being cooked up.

We are expecting to see big things from George and Salt&Pepper in 2012, so keep a lookout!  ’Like’ the Salt&Pepper Facebook page so you don’t miss a trick and to absorb George’s helpful kitchen tips Facebook.com/SaltandPepperHome.

 

Skechers GOrun is go!

Posted by & filed under Thoughts.

Skechers have once again cemented their place as a global footwear giant with the eagerly anticipated launch of Skechers GOrun – their first technical running shoe.  Using unique mid-foot strike technology, the shoe encourages a more natural ‘barefoot’ stride.

US Olympic marathon runner Meb Keflezighi recently won his Olympic trial in his Skechers GOruns and cannot speak highly enough about them.

We presented the Australian launch last Wednesday in the beautiful Botanic Gardens in Sydney alongside marathon runner and health and fitness expert, Amelia Burton. Amelia is also a recent convert to Skechers GOrun and gave the audience of health, fitness, running and fashion experts her thoughts on the ‘minimal running shoe’ trend and its benefits and gave some great tips on correct running form.

If the initial response is anything to go by, Skechers GOrun will be on every runner’s shopping list very soon if they’re not already.

See a few snaps from the launch below.  And read up on Skechers GOrun at www.skechersfitness.com.au.

The precinct looked incredible and the party was buzzing.  Keep your eye out for other special events at South Melbourne Market’s SO:ME Space and support YOUR local designers.
