Boys Issue fashion shoot
Our latest mag, the Boys Issue, has hit shelves this month, so we made this video of what went down for the fashion spread. We love it and we're sure you will too!
The Diski Dance
Have you got your moves down for the Diski Dance? No? Well lucky for you we've put up this little vid to help you out for the World Cup this month! :)
Printed Sunnies
Now that winter has fluffed its fur, the days seem to be clearer and almost sunny everyday. We think this trend is a definite must all year round. From pastels to pretty floral's we LOVE printed sunnies.
Miley Cyrus
This look is THE look right now!
Here's how to master the effect in 4 easy steps: 1. Ripped torn denim shorts are a must have in 2010, wear them always 2. Add the Twilight inspired drab grey oversized tee 3. Pair up with an Orlando Bloom lookalike beanie 4. Lastly, slip into a pair of lace up boots, Dr Martens if you can get your hands on some!
Stack It
Stacked bangles are big news in the accessories department.
The deal is to try and wear as many bangles as one. Try 1 signature bangle with smaller less detailed versions of it to complete the look.
Photoshoots are fun and exciting, that's why we love them! Check out the video we made of behind the scenes footage of our May Issue fashion shoot, the theme being "Music." :)
Pretty Grunge
The rock star grunge look is super hot right now. But if you feeling a little too girly to pull it off, then you have to go "pretty grunge".
The trick is to mix it up. Try a leather jacket with a ditsy floral dress. Skinny denim and boots with a fitted corset top. Bleached denim with a lace detail top. Don't be afraid to throw your looks together and accessorise with feminine pieces.
Photo Shoots
SWG did a photo shoot last month for the Love Your World issue, on sale the 31st of March, here are two videos we made with behind the scenes looks of what went into the mag, enjoy!
ZIGZAG PHOTO JOURNAL
You don't have to be a surfer to enjoy the goods of Zigzagmagazines' latest photo journal.
Available at selected surf stores and news agents country wide get ready to sink your teeth into some good old fashioned perve material. Boys get full on swimsuit editions and there's no way they browsing through the bikini's. Play them at their own game and brush up on your surf lingo for the next time you bump into a surfer hottie.
CUTE-ASS KIDS
Finding cute-ass kids hitting the big time...there's nothing sweeter! There is nothing more inspiring and cool to watch than kids with huge dreams and uber talent!
With the power of that giant interweb machine, sites like Youtube made sure that artists from all over the globe are getting their big breaks without leaving their living rooms.
These little 12 year old twins, Darius and Demetrice are no different. They have already been on Ellen twice. Their resemblance to the Jackson 5 would bring any die hard Jackson fan to a screech, they are that good.
Johnny Depp is amazing as the hatter. Mia Wasikowska as Alice is awe inspiring, Helna Bonham Carter as the Queen of hearts is hysterically good and Anne Hathaway is well, her usual self.
The costume design is incredible. The script is intelligent, Tim Burton has done an amazing job of telling an age old story that still keeps you guessing. SWG definitely suggests watching it in 3D, all your favourite characters come to life and it feels like you are really in wonderland. SWG loves it, loves it, loves it, yes that much we had to say it 3 times!
Go and see it now....also check out the Candice In the City blog for some pics from the premiere.

Old School Cool
When I played house about 100 years ago my sister was always married to Axel Rose and I was always stuck with Slash. Although Slash (the lead guitarist) always had the MOST amazing leather pants and hats I was always secretly jealous because I was really in love with Axel.
Grunge is coming back in a big way this winter, with the return of Dr Maartens, plaid, hi top sneakers and bleached denims. Get into the swing of things with Guns and Roses, coz they are what real rockstars are made of!
Endless Summer
Although it's nearing its final curtain call, we Saffas have had some splendid fun in the sun lately. Make sure you get your fair share and don't be put off by too much of a good thing coz the chilly season is just around the corner. Yup, that means thermal undies, sexy socks and flannel pj's. Milk your flirty florals, ditsy skirts and OTT sunnies while you still have the chance.
We Love: Before and After
As a true recession-ista you'll love doing DIY tasks at home. It's so rewarding to take something that nobody loves and shower it with a bit TLC to create a brand new masterpiece! Even better news is that, whatever you do yourself will usually cost you far less than if you buy the finished product in a store.
