FAIRLADY is a modern, glossy grown-up magazine that offers great stories and inspired solutions to the busy South African woman.

ED’S LETTER

What I’m loving

letters • Write to flmag@fairlady.com - and remember to put the word ‘letters’ in the subject line!

THIS MONTH’S FABULOUS PRIZE • A Collagen Lift® Paris Luminous Gold hamper, worth R2900!

what we love THIS MONTH • FOR THE FAIRLADY TEAM, THIS LAST BIT OF WINTER HAS BEEN ALL ABOUT SMALL COMFORTS: WATCHING A PLANT FLOURISH (SOMETIMES AGAINST ALL THE ODDS), SOOTHING WORDS FROM THE ‘TWITTER MONK’, STEAMING CUPS OF COFFEE AND SOME CBD TREATS.

GOOD HAIR DAYS

style icons • Dang! That girl’s got style. After some intensive Insta-stalking, we narrowed our list of fashion mavens down to five – and then got them to show us how to put together a killer ensemble.

ask the experts • While we had their ear, we just had to pick their brains as well! We asked our five fashionistas to share their tips, tricks and style inspo.

LIVING LA VIDA LOCAL • With Heritage Day coming up, we got to thinking: what can we do to celebrate? Have a braai? Wave a flag? We landed on something far more impactful: shop local, as often as you can. These entrepreneurs make it very easy to do just that.

EXPERT ADVICE • We asked Santam for some advice on how to mitigate the effects of Covid-19 on your business

Stop, IN THE NAME OF love! • It’s sad but true: people fall for scams every day, and it’s not just the gullible few who click on a dodgy ‘You-have-won-the-lottery link; doctors, lawyers, CEOs and successful businesspeople across the world have fallen prey to targeted scams. We take a look at the tactics of romance scammers, and how to protect yourself and the ones you love.

Nadya’s red f lags

the age of MARGOT • She started her own production company at 24, can count Scorcese and Tarantino among her fans, and Charlize Theron finds her intimidating. Here’s how Margot Robbie went from being a girl in the Australian outback to Hollywood powerhouse.

Pain KILLERS • In our May issue, we unpacked the dangers of abusing popular over-the-counter (OTC) painkiller powders. This month, we look at opiates – especially those that contain codeine, which are among the most-abused painkillers worldwide. And many are sold OTC here in South Africa.

YOU COULD HAVE A CODEINE ABUSE PROBLEM IF:

TAKE STEPS TO OVERCOME DEPENDENCE:

HOME HORROR STORIES • Buying a property is a milestone occasion for most of us, but sometimes that dream house comes with a few skeletons in the closet! We asked people to share their ‘what the hell is happening here?’ experiences with us. They’ll make you chuckle, sympathise… or rethink your offer.

combat-trained and COOKING • Kate Liquorish is having her moment in the spotlight. The local actress tells us about her meteoric rise to fame (after years of struggling), her passion for food (and wine – we can relate!) and what’s next.

Quick-fire questions for Kate

life’s A drag and so it should be... • Mama Ru says it best: ‘If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else – can I get an amen up in here?’

a whole NEW WORLD • THERE’S BEEN A LOT OF TALK ABOUT WHAT OUR WORLD WILL LOOK LIKE POST-LOCKDOWN. WE ASKED SIX SOUTH AFRICAN ARTISTS TO IMAGINE LIFE AFTER COVID-19… here’s what they envision.

THE OF LAGUAGE FLOWERS • Hitting midlife can be daunting, but it can also be inspiring; a time for change and growth. And what better way to embrace it than by learning a new skill?

The Victorian era

SOME OF CARYN’S FAVOURITE FLOWERS, AND THEIR MEANINGS

the queen OF change • JULIA CAMERON WANTS YOU TO DO YOUR MORNING PAGES.
