IT'S Tuesday evening in Shanghai and I'm on my way to watch some cricket. This is no search for an illicit gambling den, however. It is a meeting with the potential foundation of the first national Chinese women's cricket team.
 
Life Style
Fashion
  • Summer splashes of femininity
    THE secret of a secure sense of individual style, defining the fashionable woman of today, can be a simple one: freedom of choice, not bowing to fashion dictates, not being a slave to trends.
  • Dressed creativity
    MIUCCIA Prada: Art and Creativity will be held in the Peace Hotel from May 18 to 31. The exhibition will show more than 100 classical dresses and skirts styled by Prada from 1988 to today.
Travel
  • Hunt for the `Big Five'
    BOASTING the world's largest nature reserves and the tallest mountain in Africa, Kilimanjaro, Kenya has long been an irresistible temptation for those who want to indulge in the beauty of nature. Thanks to the "authorized destination status" (ADS) agreement, Kenya has now become fully available to visitors from the Chinese mainland.
