This week we're loving a rare glimpse behind the scenes at Vogue (and giving tickets away), a super cute new tee and a brand spanking new chocolate bar (and yip, you can win it for yourself!)... The September Issue The Devil Wears Prada has nothing on The September Issue. This real life documentary follows the creation of the September 2007 issue of Vogue magazine – the single largest issue of a magazine ever published, and the key personalities that pulled that issue together – including the original ‘ice queen’ herself, Anna Wintour. I loved getting this rare glimpse behind the scenes of Vogue. Instead of being portrayed as all glitz and glamour, it’s shown in a light that’s gritty and raw – the people at Vogue work incredibly hard and take their work painstakingly seriously. Very inspiring - a total must-see for any fashion lover!

Veet Spray On Hair Removal Cream You may be in denial ladies, but I’m afraid it’s time your legs came out of hibernation and welcomed the gorgeous summery weather we’ve been enjoying. If you’re not a fan of the messiness that comes with shaving, the new Veet Spray On Creams may just be your new best friend. Simply spray onto your legs, leave on for a few minutes (perhaps while deciding what to wear that day), then remove the cream with the included spatula before rinsing with water! The idea is that the hair is removed without cutting it, so it grows back softer while leaving skin feeling moisturised. With the results lasting up to twice as long as shaving, we think this is a definite summer essential! RRP $16.99 from supermarket, pharmacies and selected department stores. – Shannon Slade

FinePix F70EXR Right now I’m lusting after the new Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR, the world’s smallest 10x zoom digital camera. Not only is it chic, sexy and very handbag friendly (at only 22.7mm thick!) but it’s packed with award-wining technology, that you’ll actually use. The 10x zoom guarantees you crisp, high res pictures – whether you’re shooting action shots or something from a distance. And if you're the kinda girl who never knows which setting to turn your camera to, you'll love EXR Auto – which automatically sets the camera to the correct setting - how clever! Although this camera looks super slick, it’s also one tough cookie thanks to the specially crafted shell with a double-coated lacquer finish to protect from accidental knocks. This baby has everything you need to take beautiful photos, no matter the conditions; add it to your wishlist now! RRP$699 from Harvey Norman and other photographic retailers.
