Lifestyle & Entertainment

Fashion, music, wine

This week, we bring you a mixed platter of top stories: I interview fashion designer Palesa Mokubung for #YouthMonth as well as report back on a day of winter discoveries in Paarl; the initial international and local line-up is announced for Rocking the Daisies; and Anna-Bet reports on the trend of blue and orange wine in the #WeeklyWineWrap.

Also, a host of local artists have recently released music videos: Diamond Thug, Medicine Boy and Jesse Clegg. Check them out.

Keep warm all!
