How to get polished beach waves
Sponsored by Schwarzkopf Australia. Messy beach waves look amazing with a pair of cut-off Ksubi’s, but they’re not always suitable for every occasion or every outfit. I’ve got a few weddings coming up, so I’ve been looking for a style that’s polished enough to pair with a cocktail dress while still staying true to my ...
Soap from the ocean
There’s a reason why you come back from a beach holiday glowing, and it’s not just down to your newly bronzed skin. One of the best things about spending time in the ocean is the effect that salt water has on your skin. We can’t all live on the beach or spend our days island ...

Hair, style and roller-skates
Earlier this year, TONI&GUY partnered up with 20 of Australia’s most influential fashion bloggers to explore the relationship between hair and style through their Hair Meet Wardrobe project.

Create perfect beach hair
Being half Greek has its benefits, but smooth, effortless hair is not one of them. Along with the olive skin, I also got thick, curly and frizzy high-maintenance locks. Which is why when the Brazilian Hair Straightening treatments hit Sydney salons a few years back, I was quick to jump on board. Unfortunately, I didn’t ...
The two-toned hair trend
Dip-dyed, two-toned, sun-kissed, top-deck, re-growth – whatever you want to call it, there’s no disputing that balayage has quickly become one of the most talked about hair colouring techniques in the world. From fashionable aussies like Lara Bingle, Pip Edwards, Elle Macpherson and Isabel Lucas, to American trendsetters like Rachel Bilson, Erin Wasson and Lily ...

The 10-piece sunglass collection features your classic aviator shapes, as well ...
New Season Balayage
I don’t care how much of a girl crush you have on Pip Edwards, I don’t care if you carry a passport sized photo of her in your wallet (you know who you are); the top-deck balayage look she became famous for that was coined ‘The Pip’ is well and truly dead. But don’t go ...
Vintage Kate Moss
Editorials don’t get much hotter than this vintage castaway shoot featuring the fabulous Kate Moss, so I’m going to make this brief. Shot back in 2002 for UK Vogue, photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott captured Miss Moss at what I think was the peak of her hotness. Faded colours and salvaged materials were combined ...
Balayage
Just when you thought you’d seen the last of dumpster chic, the derelict look is back with recession ready regrowth. Look around people, times are tough. We’re now cutting back on basics like trips to the salon. But from this new way of life, a ‘recessionista’ has been born: one who’s not afraid of change ...
