It’s summertime and all your friends are busy having fun in the sun while you are stuck at work. What’s a girl to do?
Well, it is time to be transported from your desk into a world of fashion and style! After an exhaustive hunt, I have come up with a list of must-browse sites for every nzgirl currently trapped at work this summer...
www.nzgirl.co.nz This one is just plain obvious, but it wouldn’t be a true fashion and style Top Five without it!
www.fashionz.co.nz “FashioNZ - taking New Zealand fashion to the world.” This site is a definite must see, from ‘Swimwear’ and ‘Lingerie’ to ‘Brides & Grooms’ – they have all bases covered. There are local designers galore, so you have the chance to see exactly what is on offer in this fine country of ours. Be warned though, the shopping section is highly addictive! Yet, dreams are free so see if luck is on your side by entering their amazing competitions.
www.elle.com/magazine The home of Elle Magazine is a place of inspiration. The online content of the magazine is infused with a huge range of fashion, shopping and beauty related articles. If you're in the mood for a little enlightenment, you could always check out the Astrology section and find out if summer love is on the air.
www.instyle.com/instyle This site is great for catching up on the latest trends, celebrity hairstyles and fashion. Once you have your look sorted, you can strut your way over to “Parties” and find out about some of the hottest celebrity haunts.
www.eonline.com This one may seem a little off topic, but believe me – it relates. Delve into the world of celebrity, and find out what is really going on with your favourite stars. Then, check out the numerous photos throughout the site. Learn exactly what works and what doesn’t. Study other people's fashion faux-pas, so you don't make them yourself! Maybe even enjoy a few giggles on the path to discovery.
Care of these sites, those long days spent at work won’t be a waste... you will most definitely be looking your best this summer.
