By on 23 January 12    Comments: (25)

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 [...]

ManLand: getting up close and personal in the bathroom

By on 24 October 11    Comments: (7)

To shave wet or dry? It’s a personal decision near and dear to every man. Does he take the time and lather up for a traditional wet shave with a razor blade? Or does he go with the faster and more convenient dry shave using an electric razor? Traditionally I have stuck with the extra [...]

ManLand: The Father’s Day 2011 edition

By on 29 August 11    Comments: (4)

Editor’s note:  ManLand is a semi-regular post written by Mr Styling You.  He’s been a bit slack of late, (apparently) busy in his real-world job.  Not surprisingly he’s picked up his game in the lead up to Father’s Day. And, having been handed his wishlist for next Sunday, he’d better be on time for next [...]

ManLand: the Gillette Fusion Proglide Power report

By on 12 July 11    Comments: (2)

Editor’s note:  Mr Styling You is known to walk in the door at night time, not inquiring as to how my day was, instead asking whether any “product” had arrived for him.  Most days, I say, “no dear, I’m the blogger, remember”.  But on the day that this pack arrived, it was a different story.  [...]

Manland: Why men love women in tights

Ladies, listen up. Men love it when you wear stockings. With the onset of the winter, stockings are being pulled out of women’s undies draws all over the country and I have to admit.  I like them.  I just haven’t pinpointed why. I mean, what is it about a thin layer of nylon, or silk, [...]

Editor’s note: Late on the evening of March 19, I texted my husband from the Aussie Bloggers Conference dinner: “Babe, I’ve just danced on stage playing a Dyson like a guitar while singing Shania Twain – I feel like a Dyson – and I’ve won you an accessories kit.” Now most husbands would probably not [...]

Wow, what a month it has been. Mother Nature has continued to show she is certainly the boss in devastating fashion. The human race can’t help but feel very insignificant when the old girl decides it’s time to flex her muscles. With autumn now upon us, footy fever is back, the weather is starting to [...]

December. The final month of the year and summer is officially here. You beauty. And that also means November, and Movember, are over and it’s time to rid the world of those fantastic upper lip cultivations that so many of the boys have been working on.  Don’t think for a second that I don’t support [...]

This one’s for the bloke in your life: ManLand September 2010

Well… how are you all feeling after the last few weeks in sport? For a few minutes last Saturday afternoon I felt like a passenger from Oceanic Flight 815, who’d just touched down on a tropical island via a violent plane crash.    Stuck there in Grand Final purgatory, I didn’t know whether to laugh, [...]
