T
his has been an amazing year for me, made special by out-of-the-blue invitations to travel to far-flung places. The thing about moving into an unfamiliar space where the culture, language, climate and currency is foreign is that I inevitably compare it to my own reality. Sitting at a sidewalk café in Paris a few months ago, wearing a summer dress and sandals while reading emails from family and friends in chilly Cape Town, it was hard not to envy the glamorous big-city lifestyle I don’t have. The thing is, by the time I leave whatever destination I’m at, I’m always raring to go home: I suddenly remember that I find concrete jungles claustrophobic and physically crave SA’s wide open spaces, clear light and clean air. By the time I land in Cape Town, I can’t wait to hug my husband and hear my kids’ delighted giggles. As much as I love travelling, it always makes me realise that I’m the lucky one, and that I wouldn’t change my life, or the country I call home, for all the champagne in France. I hope you too are celebrating the end of a wonderful year and that we all enjoy a peaceful and prosperous 2013. Happy shopping!

all that glitters Give your going-out make-up look a new twist with a dash of sparkle. Here are four easy ways to wear metallic tones by lameez hendricks photography vivian de waal
burnished metals
Apply a creamy eyeshadow to the entire lid, working it in with your ring finger so that the colour melts into your skin, avoiding harsh lines. Spread a burnt orange lipstick onto the lips and add a little sparkle by lightly brushing on a gold eyeshadow or lip gloss.

power pout
Prep the eyelids with concealer: it serves as a primer for the creamy gold eyeshadow, ensuring that it won’t smudge or crease. Next, apply a bold red lip colour and then add extra glitz with a light layer of the gold eyeshadow. Finish with lashings of black mascara.

silver siren
Swap your black liquid liner for striking silver, applying layers to your upper lash line until it’s the desired thickness. (To draw a precise line, use a folded tissue as a ruler.) Balance the look by dusting highlighting powder onto your cheekbones and the bridge of your nose.
