Muse Magazine - Muse 24

In this issue

As the air turns crisp and we swap our linen for cashmere, there is a distinct shift in how we inhabit our spaces. Winter isn’t just a season; it’s an invitation to slow down, cocoon, and curate a life that feels as good as it looks. Welcome to our Winter Warmer edition – a collection of stories designed to spark inspiration while you’re tucked away from the chill. In REVIEW, we showcase the trends shaping our homes and wardrobes, we get insight from functional doctor, Dr Rav, regarding the vital role progesterone plays in women’s health, and we’ve selected some great new products and BB creams that the Muse team is currently obsessed with. We are also thrilled to introduce you to BeautyandBains, a stunning new skincare range crafted with love specifically for the unique needs of South Africans. Our DESIGN features take us to the rugged beauty of the Garden Route, we celebrate local talent, and for the art lovers, we explore the nuances of collecting art by chatting with both a gallery owner and an online art shop curator. If the cold has you dreaming of an escape, our WANDERLUST section offers plenty of fuel for your travel fire. We explore the expanded offerings of the magnificent Kubili House in the Greater Kruger, head to AfriCamps for a family glamping getaway, and follow our hearts into the wild adventure of Groot Winterhoek. Meanwhile, back in the city, we pull up a chair at Hugh’s, the sultry new jazz bar making waves in Joburg. And, for the family, we introduce the impressive new Stadio Campus in Durbanville, and discuss why pet insurance has become an absolute must for any modern furry family. There is so much to intrigue, inform, and entertain in these pages. Grab a cup of something steaming, find a patch of winter sunlight, and enjoy the read.
