V Day D Day It's that mushy time of year, so better prepare yourself for an onslaught of both sweet and sappy. We jump aboard the horse-drawn love carriage with an amorously inspired newsletter this week. Cari checks out the sexy fashion and action and the recent J&B Met, I experience the romance of the lovely Laborie Wine Farm, and Henri reviews the sassy Volkswagen Up! If you're still looking for V day plans than perhaps either the Valentines Concert at Hillcrest Quarry, The Valentine under the Stars open-air concert at the Castle of Good Hope or Love Swings at The Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City will peak your interest. And, 'cause we're so fond of you, we've got two tickets to give away to next Sunday's Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concert featuring the Cape Town Folk n Acoustic Music Festival! Happy Valentine weekend, go spread some hugs! Ruth Cooper, Lifestyle Co-editor & Production Manager (@Biz_Lounge)
