There was a time when everything seemed to be going right for Amara . She was a beautiful woman, not only in appearance but in the way she carried herself. She grew up in a loving home, surrounded by parents who worked hard and believed that their children should never lack opportunities. Her father was a respected man who worked tirelessly to provide for the family, while her mother was equally hardworking. They raised their daughters with discipline, kindness, and the belief that education and hard work were the keys to a good life. Amara was the elder daughter. Her younger sister, Nadia , was also intelligent and ambitious. The two sisters grew up watching their parents work together, and they learned an important lesson from them: nothing worthwhile comes without sacrifice. As the years passed, both sisters became successful in their own ways. Amara worked hard, saved her money, and eventually achieved something she had dreamed about since she was young. She bought a beauti...

Actress, singer and chef ditch day jobs to walk fashion runway
Johannesburg – Singer Busiswa Gqulu, actress Celeste Ntuli and chef Mogau Seshoene (Lazy Makoti) have ditched their day jobs to walk on the ramp as models for the new bridal clothing line Plus Fab Bridal.
Plus-Fab was founded by businesswoman and creative Ouma Tema 10 years ago to cater to women with a fuller and curvaceous figure.
“As a plus-size woman, I struggled all my life to find clothes that looked good on me and that suited my body type. I was either always squashing myself in uncomfortable dresses or wearing clothing that was not necessarily fashionable or trendy.”
In 2011, Ouma started her clothing line for women who struggled with the same issue. On 21 March 2021, she celebrates 10 years of existence and launches Plus-Fab Bridal.
“For a decade now, women have trusted us to take them to weddings as a guest. Now we can finally take them to the altar,” Ouma says.

Actress and comedian Celeste Ntuli says, “it’s about time plus size women are represented in the fashion industry.”

“Just because we are plus size, does not mean we cannot be fashionable or look good. Everyone knows that a good outfit can do a lot for your self-esteem.”
Singer Busiswa, a proud African woman has helped many women overcome their insecurities through her music. “Every bride should feel special on their wedding day; big, small, tall or short, a wedding is about,” she says.
“In my music, I’ve always preached independent, strong women who accept their uniqueness,” she adds.

The speedy LAR-01's automotive interior adds comfort and luxury. Plus: The wings detach, so the jet can be stored in a home garage. By MICHAEL VERDON Courtesy Flaris The Flaris LAR-01 has a number of striking stats, including being a ton lighter (literally) than its competitors, along with an unusually short-field landing capability, and detachable wings. But its most impressive number is the 250-knot true air speed, which its designers say makes it the world’s fastest business jet among single-engine very light jets and turboprop aircraft. Flaris says recent tests “confirmed the assumptions made previously” about the effectiveness of multiple systems, including its Garmin G600 avionics and Flaris Flight Assistance System flight computer, as well as the landing gear and emergency parachute system. But it also claims more impressive stats like the 250-knot TSA at 10,000 feet. Its 6,000-feet-per-minute climb rate, adds the compan...
Here's the story: We sat down with a man who had a harrowing journey with addiction. He began by telling us about his early days in tertiary education, where he would occasionally smoke dagga with friends. However, his focus remained on his studies, and he worked hard to graduate and secure a qualification. After landing a job, he started building a life for himself. He got married, bought a property, and even splurged on a car. Life was good, and he felt like he was on top of the world. But one fateful night, while out with friends, he was introduced to heavier narcotics. At first, the experience was exhilarating. He described it as an elevation from the mild high of dagga to a level 5 high, where he felt invincible and euphoric. The effects would last for days, allowing him to party from Friday to Sunday without sleep. The problem, however, began to manifest on Mondays and Tuesdays every week, when the withdrawal symptoms would kick in, and he'd struggle to function at work....
Home > News > Renderings It's easy to understand why a muscle car or a Ferrari is cool - the big engine and cool body. But car culture is also influenced by television, rarity, or simply a generation growing up with a particular vehicle. The Volkswagen Bus is a perfect example of this because it's slow, not sporty-looking, yet it can cost a lot of money. 16 photos The Bus is perhaps one of the least understood collectibles, right up there with bubble cars. You see them grabbing huge money at auctions, making it difficult to visualize why somebody wouldn't rather have a Ferrari or some 1960s Mustang. Comedian Gabriel Iglesias is known as the VW Bus King, as his collection of Vdubs is reportedly worth in excess of $3 million. The Hoonigan crew recently did a feature video, but we still had trouble picturing the value of these vehicles. Fortunately, there's a set of renderings that takes the visuals of the Microbus to the level where everybody...
