The lazy, hazy days of summer can seem never ending - that is until you have to leave the beach and return to work!
After the delicious anticipation of sun, surf and sleep-ins, going back to work can be hard when January-itis hits and you can’t be bothered doing much at all.
All we can say is thank god for the internet! In between checking out nzgirl, extended lunch-breaks, long coffee mornings and early finishes, you can waste away the hours surfing the web. After a quick survey of my workmates to see what they like to look at when their in-tray is empty, I’ve compiled a fail-safe list of entertainment.
You’ll find all of your friends on this super addictive site. You can upload your summer snaps and get all the gossip from your mates about their Christmas and summer holidays.
This site is guaranteed to make you laugh out loud. Who can resist a cute kitty dressed up in a chicken suit?! This site has some of the funniest, cutest and craziest pictures you’ll see. If you aren’t a cat lover there’s also the sister site stuffonmymutt.com
Having a stylist doesn’t always mean you look the part and this site pokes fun at celebrities who can get it oh so wrong. The ribbing is done in a good-natured way and it’s refreshing to know that even money doesn’t guarantee a good outfit.
For your daily dose of celebrity gossip and photos, this site is one of the best around. You get 16 new photos of celebs out and about every day and the latest news from Hollywood. Usmagazine.com is also jam packed with photos and news from the rich and famous.
I was introduced to this site by a workmate and it’s fast becoming a favourite of mine. The Sartorialist is a former fashion retailer turned photographer who spends the days snapping people in fantastic outfits on the streets of New York. You’ll see some divine outfits and get plenty of inspiration. The site’s also been named by Time Magazine as one of the top 100 design influences.
Already planning your next holiday? Before you book it, check out what other travellers have to say about your planned destination and accommodation. These reviews are honest and you're likely to get a much better perspective than booking straight from brochures or websites.
