Charlotte O’Connor is taking time out from recording her debut album, to embark on an experience of a lifetime, a tour of the UK with her acoustic band in a 1970’s VW campervan, playing a mixture of Quiksilver stores, and music venues.

At only 18, Charlotte has already laid the foundations of what will no doubt be a long and successful career in the music industry. The beautiful, confident and often too modest singer songwriter from Blackburn has, since signing with The Mel Bush Organisation (Led Zeppelin, Queen, Sir Elton John, David Bowie, David Essex, Vanessa Mae) in 2007, built a cult internet fan base of well over 1,000,000 already. This attracted the brand ‘Quiksilver’, whom Charlotte now works closely with as an official ambassador. In December 2008, Charlotte signed a worldwide record deal with Columbia Records, and is currently putting together her debut album.

Charlotte will be releasing her debut single ‘Headrush’ this Autumn. Ahead of this, she will spend most of August travelling the UK in a VW campervan on a tour sponsored by Quiksilver, she will perform with her two acoustic band members .

She will be selling her debut EP entitled ‘The First Five’ at her shows, along with some self designed t-shirts and a limited edition necklace’s produced by Quiksilver. The tour will also be documented through weekly videos uploaded to her sites, daily tweets, and regular blogs.

All shows are free entry.

International Surfing Star Johanne Defay Joins Roxy Invitational 2010

admin — Wed, 19 May 2010 08:17:36 +0000

South Africa – Talented Reunion surfer Johanne Defay is the final girl to be invited to surf in the 2010 Roxy Invitational Mozambique. Johanne, who placed third in last year’s seminal event, will be looking to improve her performance at the newly chosen venue of Tofinho, Tofo. Johanne was also the youngest surfer to claim the ASP European Women’s Junior title when she won it aged 15 in 2009. She will be replacing Alice Mcgregor, who had to pull out of the event due to previous commitments. The fast and stylish natural-footer could quite easily set the cat amongst the pigeons in this highly-competitive arena that the Roxy Invitational has become.

Roxy Marketing Manager Tamara Westbrook was upbeat about her inclusion. “Obviously we’re very excited to have Johanne in the mix once again,” said Westbrook. “It’s a bit disappointing that Alice couldn’t make it as she’s a great girl and an unreal surfer, but with Johanne replacing her, we have a line-up of red-hot surfers. Having international flavour in such an event is going to lift everyone’s game. It’s quite exciting. We’re going to see some top-end surfing.”

The waiting period for the event is from 25 May – 30 May, and the event is set to run at the idyllic location of Tofinho, Tofo. A perfect, sand-bottom right-hand pointbreak with endless rides in front of a secluded beach is what awaits the girls, along with a first prize of a cool ten grand. Only one day within the previously mentioned waiting period is what is needed to run the event off to conclusion, and with it being prime swell period, that day will reveal itself.

The contestants are going to be housed at the wondrous Turtle Cove Resort in Tofo (www.turtlecovetofo.com) and there are all sorts of activities for the girls when they’re not out amongst the waves. Yoga, horse riding and skin diving are just a few of these activities, as well as swimming with whale sharks for those that are brave enough. This the fourth edition of the event and it looks like it’s going to be another great tournament.

The final list of surfers, in no particular order, are:

Kirsty Delport (ZAF)
Chantelle Rautenbach (ZAF)
Sarah Baum (ZAF)
Philippa Anderson (AUS)
Heidi Palmboom (ZAF)
Tarryn Chudleigh (ZAF)
Johanne Defay (REU)
Holly Armstrong (ZAF)
Paige Haggerston (AUS)
Faye Zoetmulder (ZAF)

Any woman will tell you how important it is to accessories any outfit that you might be wearing and it only takes a little bit of imagination to get some inspiration for whatever you might be wearing.

There are a whole host of accessories that you can choose from when it comes to Roxy. They know how important it is to look cool, stylish and fashionable particularly when you are at college or university. You want to impress your friends with how you look and how you have styled yourself.

Summer macs from Roxy

Eddie — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 11:12:46 +0000

As temperamental as the weather in the UK can be, you need to be fully prepared for all types of weather. It isn’t uncommon to have an unusually warm spring but a cold summer with very little sunshine and plenty of rain. Although it might be good for the garden, it’s not great when you want to be out and about enjoying yourself.

This is why you need to have a mac from Roxy at your disposal should the weather turn colder and wetter. There is a fabulous collection of Roxy Summer Macs available for the spring summer season. One that really stood out for me was the Roxy Makaha Stone mac.

The Roxy Makaha Stone mac is made from 100% cotton and has a gorgeous yard dyed plaid lining. There is 400mm inside of PU coating and it is also water resistant so you can escape the April showers without getting wet. With a drawstring at the waist, you can style your new mac from Roxy to go with any outfit you may have put together. It can work well as a casual coat or something smarter for when you are heading to the office or out with your friends on a night out.

Checked walkshorts

It is definitely the weather for getting your shorts out and sitting in the garden. We are used to the adverse weather when it comes to summer in Great Britain so we have learnt to make the most of any sunshine that comes our way.

This is why Quiksilver have such a wide range of walkshorts which are suitable for wearing both at home and abroad. Their walkshorts come in an array of different styles and colours so you can be sure to find the right pair that is perfect for you and your needs.

A pair that really stands out from the spring summer collection is the Quiksilver Superbad Raven walk short. They are made from 100% cotton and are a yarn dyed cotton poplin in a check pattern. They are a regular fit in a cargo style with pockets which is useful for keeping your mobile phone and keys.

You will need to team these gorgeous shorts with your favourite Quiksilver tee shirt and you are ready to hit the beach or visit a local attraction in addition to your skate shoes from Quiksilver.

Boardies for boys

All boys like to take after their dads and wear similar clothing. Young children are very impressionable and they want to feel just as trendy as their dad when they are out and about or on holiday. With Quiksilver it is really easy to kit your children out in a funky tee shirt, cool pair of boardies and a hoodie just like their dad.

The collection of clothing from the Boy’s Quiksilver range is really something special. You can find almost any type of clothing that a young lad could ever want or need as well as ensuring that they look super cool and trendy.

A pair of really cool boardies that look trendy enough to be seen on the beach from Bondi to Brighton is the Quiksilver Pulse Youth Costa Azul board shorts. They are made from 100% polyester and have a wicked print all over them. The super suede fabric is really quick to dry and has a side pocket which is handy for keeping money for an ice cream safe. Your kid will look super cool as well as having a very practical pair of shorts for when you are on holiday.

Coloured skinny trousers from Roxy

If you are fed up of wearing the standard blue or black jeans when you are hanging out at the skate park or going to college, then you need to take a look at the fabulous range of coloured jeans that are on offer from Roxy.

Roxy have really stepped up to the mark when it comes to fashionable pieces of clothing for their spring summer collection and they have filled it with some seriously funky pieces for you to wear to your hearts content.

The Roxy Side Step Flat Papaya skinny fit trousers are made from 99% cotton with 1% elastine which makes them very comfortable to wear as well as being a little bit stretchy. These gorgeous trousers are designed to be a skinny fit with a low rise waist. In addition you will find belt loops which are great if you want to style your new trousers with a Roxy belt.

These pants also come with front and back pockets for storing your loose change or your MP3 player. The funky colour will certainly make you stand out from the crowds when you are out on your skate board or going to a festival this summer.

Metallic canvas trainers from Roxy

Pumps are always a fantastic staple piece to have in your shoe collection for when you are going out with your mates or heading to the cinema with your boyfriend. Pumps look absolutely fantastic with a pair of jeans and a simple tee shirt for the perfect casual day look.
