A rather evocative blend!

The statement, sculptural bottle translucent metallic golden glass adds to the appeal of I Want Choo Le Parfum ... a vibrant ode to empowering female friendships, evoking glamorous and memorable nights. From R1499 to R2799 from Edgars, Foschini, Truworths, Woolworths.

It’s that magical time of year when the cricket

It’s that magical time of year when the cricket calls take a back seat to jingle balls … and for Talita Wiegand, it’s a well-earned break.

Fresh off her return from the Indoor Cricket World Cup in Sri Lanka, SA Ladies Master captain Talita Wiegand is trading wickets for warm family moments and a slice (or three) of her family’s famous chocolate cake.

To date, she’s been the epitome of cricket queen goals, with a whopping five World Cups under her belt … Australia, Fourways, England, Cape Town, and now Sri Lanka. The cherry on top? Team SA snagged a podium finish this year, claiming third place. Not too shabby for a sport that still carries the stereotype of being a boys’ game.

But don’t let her calm, down-to-earth demeanour fool you. Talita believes she’s breaking barriers and paving the way for girls to shine in traditionally male-dominated sports. Such as, well, cricket.

‘It hasn’t been easy,’ she admits. ‘I’ve been shut down so many times because girls don’t play cricket. But that just made me work harder, to never be shut down again. I’m doing this for the next generation of girls. We can exist loudly, and we will.’

This passion for the underdog runs deep. Talita considers herself one, and she’s embraced every setback as a stepping stone to something better.

What a wonderful Time [Square] of the year! Time

What a wonderful Time [Square] of the year!

Time Square can't wait to bring the spirit of Christmas and dazzle their visitors with a marvellous line-up of festive season events and activities. And ... it's all starting tomorrow night.

What better way to kick it all off than a magical lights ceremony? Think a stunning light display that will be switched on for the first time, followed by a night of live entertainment. These festive lights will shine brightly and maintain a joyful atmosphere until January 2.

Sweetening the experience, Candylicious will offer free popcorn and slushies to children under 12 years old every day between 7.30pm and 9.30pm during this period.

Plus, you'll want to stock up on gifts at the Christmas Market, from November 29 to December 8. Get unique gifts, enjoy festive food, and absorb the holiday spirit.

On December 5, guests can join in on the carol singing tradition as Time Square will host the Spar Carols by Candlelight presented by Jacaranda FM. From 7pm.

The cherry on top of the gingerhouse bread? You don’t have to spend Christmas Day in the kitchen. Enjoy a festive feast with the Appetite Christmas Lunch Special, featuring a delectable menu that will make your holiday meal with family and friends extra special.

From the twinkling lights that will light up the sky to heart-warming carols and delish treats, there’s no better place to celebrate!

Sweet Symphony The Lotus Philharmonic Orchestra i

Sweet Symphony

The Lotus Philharmonic Orchestra is back for its second season, and it’s fabulous. Think esteemed works of Joseph Haydn, Alexander Borodin, and Edward Elgar.

A dynamic presentation of classical and romantic masterpieces, and a mesmerising performance that ends on a high note with Haydn’s Symphony No. 104 in D major, Hob.I:104 … paired with miniatures from the realms of Albion and Saint Petersburg. An afternoon of pure symphonic magic!

Looking for a school that’s more than just textbooks and tests? At Southdowns College, they’re all about shaping the future … one well-rounded learner at a time.

Tucked away in the idyllic Irene Valley in Centurion, Pretoria, Southdowns College started with a bold dream … to shape well-rounded individuals who'd go on to make a difference, not just in South Africa, but all around the world. It might’ve seemed like a big ambition at the time, especially with only a handful of learners in the beginning. But with a little faith and a lot of passion, the teachers and leadership team took on the challenge with open hearts and big ideas.

With a commitment to holistic education and the ideal of creating lifelong learners, the school invested in the creation of four main campuses on one beautiful property.

The journey begins at the pre-preparatory school, where their youngest learners (Grades 000 to 0) are lovingly guided by the ever-talented Ms Barbra Furness. She’s been with the school for years, and with her amazing team, does wonders with the college’s littlest family members.

From there, it’s on to the preparatory school (Grades 1 to 7). Which is led by the knowledgeable and energetic Ms Jessica Fritz, who’s backed by a team that knows the ins and outs of the school.

Then comes the high school (Grades 8 to 12), where Ms Suzan Thupane and her dynamic management team and teachers are carrying the school’s vision forward, preparing young adults to face the world. (Link in bio for more info)
