It’s time to get ready for Spring and Summer (SS)… BRING IT ON!

The summer months are approaching fast. Getting ready to strut your little black dress or a cute swimsuit starts early. Now is the time to think about your new season wardrobe and how to get yourself styled for the warmer weather!

 

Here are my top 5 tips for SS trends and being SS ready >

1. NEON

By now you all know that we are huge fans of Neon here at Melbourne Girl! Last month, Bec ran us through her tips on how to wear fluorescent party dresses, coloured jeans and bright blazers this SS. Check out her 3-step Neon Trend Guide here for more tips! Loving the Bluejuice Neon Crossing dress (pictured below).

 

 

 

2. Leather Shorts

If you can wear them short… Do it! Loving leather shorts big time for SS.

Wear them by day and night for a seriously sharp look. Check out these gorgeous styles available now online at The Iconic:

 

 

3. Tees and Tanks

You probably love the feel of a good old summer tee or tank, but have it drilled into your head that they just look a bit blah, right? Well, scrap that thought, because they are officially the new black! Tees and tanks with real style are out there… Here are 3 ways to rock the look: (Lara Bingle wearing Bassike Tank, Christine Centenera and the ultimate Celine tee).

 

 

 

4. Shades

This SS in particular, there’s infinite cool to be added with the right pair of shades. Be it polarized lenses or pastel frames – think every shape and size under the sun – just make sure you bolt a pair on! Loving the RUNAWAYS style by Le Specs right now!

Le Specs designer Hamish Tame explains “Our success this season has really come with experimenting with colours and prints. For the past few seasons dark colours have really dominated the sunglass market, but it now feels like everyone is ready for some bright action this summer. The key look for Le Specs SS is washed out brights and whites mixed with palm prints and bright mirrored lenses.”

 

 

 

5. Summer Legs

You can have Summer ready pins, thanks to the fabulous new Veet EasyWax Electrical Roll-On Kit.

The kit allows you to achieve impeccably smooth skin and salon professional results in the comfort of your own home (without the effort or cost of going to the salon). The new Veet EasyWax Electrical Roll-On Kit is a unique and innovative hot wax system from Australia’s leading depilatories expert, Veet. The Veet Kit not only minimises the cost of regular in-salon waxing, it also helps you to achieve salon wax results so you have the confidence to put your ‘best leg’ forward all season through.

Innovatively created to provide the ultimate at-home waxing device the EasyWax Electrical Roll-On Kit comes with a handy wax cartridge that clicks into a self-heating applicator, which warms the wax to the right temperature every time.

Thanks to the clever design of the EasyWax Roll-On applicator, you can be assured of clean, thin layers of wax for total and even coverage with every application. Once applied, you simply remove wax in a swift and fluid motion using the Veet reusable strips provided. Then simply remove any wax residue with a perfect finish wipe provided.

 

 

 

On Friday 14th of September, I headed into Miss Fox (at 285 Little Collins Street) for a Fashion Blogger Cocktail Party. A celebration of all things girly – cocktails and canapés; bunny rabbits and flamingos; manicures and make overs; the evening was in honour of the fabulous new Veet EasyWax Electrical Roll-On Kit.

I had the pleasure of meeting lots of new blogger and Nuffnang faces, as well as catching up with some old friends (like Cecylia from cecylia.com). I was treated to a fab mini hair session (nothing like a blow wave to get your stylish night started) and also watched as other girls were spoilt with manicures and make up sessions…

Michelle Vamvas

As a mum of three aged 8 and under
“Me” time is scarce, is it any wonder?!
Trips to the salon are a thing of the past
I just shave in the shower, but the results don’t last.
So this revolutionary Roll-On Kit by Veet
Would make my pre-outing prep complete!
It ensures that the process will be fuss-free
No more stray hairs, or nasty nicks to the knee
The results are long-lasting which is just what I need
And it’s simple application means even I can succeed!
The added bonus is it won’t break the bank
So for smooth, fuzz-free pins, I’ll have Veet to thank!!!

Narelle Rock

hubby is always using my razors so they are blunt when I go to use them…but he is too scared of waxing so I know that he won’t take this away from me..smooth legs here I come!

Angie Boylan

Between school, work, being a mum and wife, I can never find time to visit salons for waxing, so would be great to be successfully be able to do it myself at home – the Roll On Kit by Veet looks simple and easy to use!

Sue

When a change if plans requires a little black dress instead of the pants you had planned on wearing it’s Veet to the rescue and the night out saved.

Grace Wagon

I always forget to buy razors so I’m always in a mad panic to get to the shops before a night out. Plus waxing would mean that I wouldn’t have to worry about shaving again the next day – perfect for summer as well!

Michelle Gray

With the EasyWax from Veet,
night out preparations are a small feat.
The wax is at the perfect heat,
not hard like concrete.
It’s so easy I feel like I’m a cheat,
in no time hair free is complete,
and I’m ready to hit the streets!!!

Sue Bou

Sometimes I get very lax,
And leave my legs ’til last,
It’d be so much easier with Veet EasyWax,
Then onlookers wouldn’t be aghast,
As I step out all dressed to tease,
But my legs hairs are blowing in the breeze!!!!!!

Linda

No one wants hairy arms and legs to spoil a night of fun!
Imagine a hairy spider doing the spider web dance on the dance floor!

Fatima Shah

I’m no good at poetry so basically I have wrecked a few tshirts and pants and carpets! trying to wax with a wax pot by dripping wax on them so at least I might save them using the easywax system!

Jodie Taylor

I usually shave but lately my legs have caused my sheets to have pilling!!! Veet help me

Rebecca Blackmore

I dont shave very often during the winter months and when i do, It’s an incredibly scary sight to see more hair on my legs then my husband. It then takes me ages to finally get it all off and looking nice. With the Veet wax, I would have my legs done in half the time and they would look twice as good with no painful, bleeding cuts on my legs.

Anita Black

Using the Easywax kit will leave my legs in better condition….good enough to bare! As with shavers I always nick and cut myself and it also irritates my skin and it gets itchy!!! The Easywax way is the ideal way!!!

Judith Senese

Easy to use, with no messy residue. One less thing I have to worry about making a mess, not unlike my three sons.

gemmie

Face is complete with lipstick that’s sweet
But what I really need’s a bit of Veet!
Help me get legs to finish my style,
So I can be silky smooth and rock out for a while!

Melanie Farrugia

This would be perfect for my teenage daughter who tried waxing for the first time last weekend this would be less messy and easy application for her

Laura Jilka

No longer do you need a night in,
Just wax on and off and into the bin!
No showers, then waxing followed by a bath,
I can just get out and have a laugh!

Becky S

No more excuses for hairy anything, easy to use for instant silky results!

Jodie F

I would love to win some Veet
So i can feel sexy when i step onto the street
No more missing spots or jagged cuts
Veets waxing kits are really no fuss

Veets Easywax is what i need
So i can be ready and do it with speed
I’ll even have time to fix my curls
To give me more time to hang out with my girls

Izzy Brown

This Veet Easy Wax Kit really would be just that! EASY and really, NO MESS! Perfect for keeping calm, cool and looking good for a perfect night out.

Renee Robinson

Instead of leaving blood running down my legs before I go out I can have silky leg wax with Veets Easy Wax Kit

Kirsten W

Waxing (standard pre-night out last minute routine) whilst trying to dance to Beyonce (standard pre-night out music) and holding a champers in one hand (standard pre-night out drink) has always been a challenge. Veet EasyWax would remove some of that difficulty, with legs getting waxed better and quicker. Which of cause leaves more time that can be dedicated to the pre-night out drinking!

Kerryanne B

Nice and easy application? yes
less pain and frustration? yes
is veet easy wax my solution? YES

I’m frustrated with the mess and extensive pain looking for a better solution… veet has always come through in the past and im sure this will allow me more time to have a blast!
