What to wear: This weekend

Rebecca Volpe — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 23:52:05 +0000

A breezy floral blouse teamed with an above-the-knee (but not too short) skirt says 'hello weekend' like no tomorrow.

The weekend is a glorious time to express your individuality, especially if you’re [...]

Clear skin doctor: The best treatments and prodz to cure your skin woes

Kristina Ioannou — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 22:11:13 +0000

Ah, if only drinking tons of water really gave us that squeaky clean, blemish-free skin we desire and if only banishing wrinkles were as easy as splashing our faces with cold water. Sadly, like winning the $6 million lotto, the quest for flawless skin is more of a journey than a conquerable feat. Until now. [...]

Switched on: Lamps to light up your life

Larissa Thorne — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 00:52:22 +0000

By now you're probably well aware of my lighting obsession, but for once I'm not talking about my love affair with pendant lights. Now I'm thinking smaller and much more practical: lamps.

Sometimes winter needs the middle finger, am I right ladies? Trudging to work early in the morning when it's fa-reeeezing cold is not anyone's idea of fun and seeing bright clothes get the flick in exchange for dark, dreary garment shades can be a bit of a downer. But don't let Jack Frost win! Lighten [...]

Web Want: A house inside the house

Larissa Thorne — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 00:50:33 +0000

Reader Q&A: What’s the best beauty advice you’ve ever received?

Kristie Giblin — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 00:25:12 +0000

I used to be (and still mostly am) pretty uninitiated when it comes to a huge beauty routine, and would die for someone to just list out what exactly I need and when to use it so it's simple. The best advice I was given was to regularly moisturise and exfoliate and hey, without all the [...]

Larissa Thorne — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 00:24:44 +0000

There's something about the photography over at Love & Lemons that gets my tummy rumbling. It could just be the incredible photography or the juxtaposition (I've been waiting to use that word since year ten art class!) of brightly coloured food against an all-white background. Or it could be the mouth-watering ingredients in combinations I'd [...]

terri_berri — Sat, 15 Jun 2013 00:22:49 +0000

When it comes to lip colours, I am a sucker for anything that is pink, peach or nude. So with the launch of the new Bobbi Brown Sheer Lip Colors (mind you I am a die-hard Bobbi Brown fan), I knew that these were lippies I needed to try. A surprise came in the mail [...]
