t’s hard to imagine that it’s only two short years ago that I was nervously writing my first ed’s letter for the new-look Club magazine.

I had spent the previous three months working with my team to transform the already-established publication into a fashion, beauty and lifestyle bible for women (with a quarterly magazine, Club MAN, for our guy shoppers).

The result? A Thula Sindi-clad model smouldering for the camera and the one million Club members who received the magazine that month.

This high-fashion image has set the tone for everything we have accomplished since then, from shooting in locations as exotic as Stone Town in Zanzibar and Mapenzi Beach in Kenya to gaining exclusive interview access to the likes of beauty moguls Aerin Lauder and Bobbi Brown; as well as Paralympic athletics champion and L’Oréal Paris beauty ambassador, Aimee Mullins.

And that’s just the magazine!

We’ve also tried to add extra value to your Club experience by publishing

“22 Issues of Club and still going strong.”

a host of free fashion and beauty supplements both with the magazine and online. This month’s Kids Summer 2013, which includes the cutest in minime threads, as well as much-needed advice on how to plan the coolest kids’ parties, is one of my favourites.

And if you haven’t yet found us on the newly relaunched edgarsclub.co.za, Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest, like, where have you been?

As for me, making this magazine brand work harder for you has, and continues to be, a creative outlet like no other. Plus, I get to eat, breathe and sleep fashion 24/7. What more could a girl ask for?

Happy shopping!

what’s hot BAG IT

Don’t miss the launch of B by Busby, an exciting new range of handbags. Expect en vogue, high-quality bags in a riot of colours and styles, inspired by the top international catwalks.

B by Busby prices start at R499.95 and the range is available at selected Edgars stores.

TOP MODEL

Taking the reins from supermodel Kate Moss would be intimidating for most of us but judging by Mango’s Spring/ Summer 2013 campaign, Miranda Kerr is taking it in her stride. The Australian beauty, who shot to fame as a Victoria’s Secret Angel, is the latest famous face to represent the Spanish brand. Miranda describes the new range as tailor-made for “strong, feminine and versatile women”. Find the collection, including the suit jacket worn above (R549.95), at selected Edgars stores.

Edgars is delighted to welcome the Beautiful Blue Tanzanite fine jewellery collection to its fold. Set in sterling silver, this rare and precious gemstone is brought to life in a luxe range of lust-worthy rings, necklaces, earring and bracelets that are surprisingly affordable. What’s more, each piece is covered by a one-year guarantee. The collection is exclusive to Edgars and available at selected stores.

BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND Known for their celebrity collaborations, M∤A∤C has now teamed up with Barbadian hit-maker Rihanna. The Riri Hearts M∤A∤C range is packed with shimmery bronzers, punchy lipstick colours and more in rose-gold-style packaging.

Our favourite is the retro matte red Riri Woo Lipstick (R210) – apparently it sold out online in the States on the very same day it was launched. But don’t worry, you’ll find it with the rest of the range at M∤A∤C counters in selected Edgars stores.

live smart down time R.I.P.D.

At Ster-Kinekor from 4 October Earth is about to be attacked by evil spirits from the afterlife who are on the run from final judgement. It’s up to Rest in Peace Police Department agents Nick Walker (Ryan Reynolds), and Roy Pulsipher (Jeff Bridges), to stop them dead in their tracks. With supernatural baddies galore – not to mention the delicious Mr Reynolds – this hilarious action-adventure film is far from your typical buddy-cop movie. Expect a whole lot of fun.

Grab the popcorn and get comfy with these great films and can’t-put-down reads rush

At Ster-Kinekor from 4 October Fasten your seat belt – you’re in for a ride. Based on real-life events and set in the ’70s, Rush is the story of the bitter rivalry between Formula One drivers, Niki Lauda (Daniel Brühl) and James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth). It chronicles their juxtaposing lifestyles as well as Lauda’s near-fatal accident. This film is the latest offering from director Ron Howard (Frost/Nixon, A Beautiful Mind), and also stars Olivia Wilde.

FUN FACTS ABOUT RYAN REYNOLDS

Diana

At Ster-Kinekor from 18 October Naomi Watts stars as Princess Diana in the biopic that takes us on an intimate journey of the two years leading up to her death.

The actress admitted to InStyle magazine that this role was scarier than filming The Impossible, the disaster movie she starred in last year. Look out for Naveen Andrew (Lost, The English Patient), who plays Dr Hasnat Khan, the heart and lung surgeon speculated to be the true love of Diana’s life.

• Ryan has no formal acting training. Brainyquote.com quotes him as saying, “I knew I could do it based on the skill with which I lied to my parents.”

• The 36-year-old Canadian is married to Blake Lively but he was once engaged to Alannis Morrisette and his ex-wife is bombshell Scarlett Johansson.

• He has written for the Huffington Post, covering subjects like running the NYC Marathon.

• He once had a close call while skydiving when his parachute malfunctioned. We’re eternally grateful for reserve parachutes!
