There is a war going on at the Styling You beach shack. A war over something quite precious in our fun little abode … space. We don’t have much of it to spare at our place, so if someone or something takes up too much of it, it sure gets noticed. Team SY underwent a… Continue Reading
Editor’s note: Mr SY popped the question 10 years ago tonight, in his undies, down on one knee at the side of the bed. Too much information? Well, don’t read on because he reveals some of his other “endearing” traits. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. With it being International Love Day today, I thought it appropriate… Continue Reading
Sponsored by EA Mobile One of my favourite things about being a dad is being able to re-live my youth all over again by doing fun things with the kids. Surfing at the beach, cricket and footy in the backyard, Lego, chess and playing computer games are all on the menu as our youngest gets… Continue Reading
I suck at growing a mo. I’m very fair haired and even the hair I do have is not that thick.

This post is a discussion piece about the long-running battle between men and women for space in the wardrobe to store… Continue Reading

While we agreed about the horror of the return of such a despicable accessory, it quickly… Continue Reading
I am, you are, we are … Australiannnnn! With January 26 on my mind I’ve decided to have a bit of fun and create a hit list of crimes in Australian men’s fashion. You may not agree, and that’s fine but I’d love to know what you think. The flanno A nice chequered shirt should… Continue Reading
