The Best Airport Fashion

You are packed and ready for your amazing trip, now just one more thing...what an earth do you wear to the airport? It's always a slight dilemma dressing for the airport, especially if your starting your journey in a cold climate and will end up in 35 degree heat. A puffer jacket just doesn't cut it, so we have brought you some of the most stylish airport looks so you can start your next adventure with bothstyle and practicality! 

Hot weather! If you're lucky enough to be jet setting into the heat, then here are some looks that cater to your destination. Although all airports are similar temperature form air-conditioning, its important that you don't pack a big bulky jacket or pants purely for the airport trip. Layering is key! Bring one jacket and wear that on the plane, as any more and you are compromising shopping! A key trick to avoid a squished sun hat, is to wear it on the plane! I took my floppy hat across Europe and it has still remained its flop! This is because I wore it in airports so it didn't get squashed in the bottom of my suitcase. 




Cold weather! Are you arriving to a winter wonderland in Switzerland? Christmas in New York? Or maybe just Tasmanian summer… wherever your headed make sure you wear your biggest winter jacket on the plane. This will save room in your suitcase and can double up as a blanket on those long night flights. It's good to wear scalves as they add that bit of extra warmth and can be used as a head wrap to keep light out when trying to sleep.



Comfort! Make sure you're comfortable for your flight, it can often take three days of flying to even arrive at your destination so be prepared to be seriously jet lagged and don't take it out on the jeans that won't stay up right or the itchy Chanel sweater. Comfort is key for airport style. If you can rock a onesie like Rhianna then hell, go for it! Wear shoes that your feet will thank you for and clothes your prepared to live in for a couple of days. But remember, comfortable doesn't mean ugly. It means ultimate chic, effortless style to start your adventure with a bang!

The Man Bun: Has it gone too far?

In today's society, some would say men are taking more pride in their appearance than women. Gone are the days of the scruffy Aussie bloke, instead we're seeing primed, proper 'indie' alternative lads or Stereosonic gym junkies. Although the later is a questionable species of male, there are no complaints here from the stylish 'indie' guy and more importantly, the man bun that's paired with it.

I'm just going to go ahead and say it, I'm all about the man bun. There's something sexy about a guy with long hair. It portrays a laid back kind of guy even though in reality he's probably spent more time perfecting that mun (man bun) than a girl trying to nail a 'messy bun'. Yep, we've been there. 

There's only one thing that can melt a woman's ovaries faster than Chris Hemsworth wearing a man bun: it's Chris Hemsworth holding a baby wearing a man bun. 



But gone are the days of the scruffy long haired man bun, there's a new man bun in town. It's unusual, it's odd and it's very in. Behold, the Top Knot or the Undercut Man bun. Whatever you want to call it, its the new craze of fashionable men. Now the question presents itself, has the man bun gone too far? Not only would this be a hard hairstyle to maintain, but it completely defeats the look of a scruffy, carefree man bun. Either or, there is an undeniable appeal to the look.

                                             
Give us your opinion on the new mun - The term is going to catch on, i'm sure of it.

FESTIVAL SEASON

All hail the festival season! It's the time for sun, drinks, tunes and all round good vibes! There's nothing better than finishing up a three day bender knowing that although your form may not always have been on par, your outfits certainly were. I'm loving the natural 'hippy' look this season, with gems, flower crows and crop tops. Im inspired to bring out my inner hippy and rock The Falls Festival in style.

Cara and Jourdan's DD's

With social media Queen Cara Delevingne posting a photo of yet another of her trademark small yet stylish tattoos; A matching ‘DD’ symbol with her bud and fellow supermodel Jourdan Dunn. It appears that the days of tattoos symbolising strength and brutality are gone. Sitting through hours of needle poking, skin burning pain is about as heroic as spending two months pay on the latest Marc Jacobs bag. With designers sticking fake tattoo’s on their models in the runway, the latest fashion fad has one crucial element that none of its counterparts can match. It’s permanent. No matter how extravagant the pink, shaven hair can be, or rocking a double denim couple outfit to the American Music Awards (Yes JT and Brit, we are still bringing it up) these fashion foes are temporary. There is no denying the fact that the fashion world has a severe case of bipolar, with a new trend hitting the media every week. So how can we justify this new craze? And the question is, will it stand the test of time, or will the next biggest celeb trend be laser tattoo removal.
