Life is opening up once more and freedom is just around the corner. The thought of outfit planning again can be totally daunting but don’t worry babes we’ve got you! Here’s a few handy tips to help you ditch the ‘cute shirt up top, PJ’s on the bottom’ zoom meeting look and get back to slaying in the office.

Feeling Admired

Plan ahead 

Take the stress out of your morning routine by pre-planning your work wardrobe. Not only will this save time and give you an extra few mins in bed, you’ll be sure to be feeling confident in your look too. We recommend planning the night before or, for the prolific planners among you, why not get the whole weeks looks nailed on Sunday eve ready to kill it all week.

Nothing To Wear

Capsule Collection

The key to an easy and wearable workwear wardrobe is versatility. Focus on collecting staples and statements which you can mix and match to create loads of different looks. The two absolute musts are blazers and bodysuits. We have loads of lush blazers so once you find your fit the styling possibilities will be endless. Go effortlessly cool with a bodysuit and cycling shorts underneath or full power mode with matching tailored trousers and heels.

Comfort is key

 Transitioning from loose and elasticated to tight and tailored is going to be a shock to the system, so make sure your outfits are comfy as well as cute. Nothing distracts you more than a waistband digging in or heels that give you blisters. Ease yourself in gently with a block heel like our classic Gracen Block Heels. These beauties are available in multiple colours so there’s a pair for every outfit!

Whether you’re a dress kinda gal or slaying in suits is more your boss babe vibe, we’ve got tonnes of gorj workwear pieces to get you in the back to the office mood. Go on, check them out hun!

Don’t worry babes we’ve got you!

Swan Slippers

Tip 1: Don’t go too high too soon.

We don’t want to send any of our PB babes’ home with broken ankles so shelf the stilettos for now and start with a shorter kitten heel, like our gorg ‘Party Gal’ barely there’s or perhaps a sturdy block like our best selling ‘Rock Steady’ studded heels.

Nude Kitten Heels

Tips 2: Start training now.

You have until April 12th to prep for your first post lockdown day drinks so take advantage of this time! Start walking around the house in heels for at least half an hour a day – remember huns, hard work pays off! Your feet may be hurting now but you’ll thank us after that first night back on the dancefloor!

via GIPHY

Tip 3: Teach yourself to walk again.

Posture is everything when walking in heels so shoulders back and down with your arms relaxed so they can slightly swing with your walk to help balance you.

Loosen up – don’t lock your legs, have a slight bend in the knee and your legs close together as you walk.

Heel to toe, heel to toe. Remember walk heel first then to toe, with toes pointed directly ahead.  

Finally, don’t rush – slow and steady wins the race!

via GIPHY

Now you should be ready to strut your stuff but if all else fails, stock up on blister plasters and if you fall – fall in style and get back up with grace!

Celebs and influencers always have us crushin' on their style! It's easier than you think to copy their fashion, even without the big bucks. If your wardrobe is in need of a refresh, then you're going to want to grab these celeb inspired garms before they're gone.

Celebrities Wearing Tracksuits

Tracksuits and loungewear have now become our whole entire life. Comfort is key, but that doesn't mean we can't still look stylish. Celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez, Chloe Sims and Sofia Richie love rocking a casual tracksuit while they're off-duty. Rack up those insta likes by pairing your tracksuit with sock trainers and oversize sunglasses - total influencer vibes.

 Celebrity Knitwear

Olivia Attwood and Michelle Keegan love keeping it simple with nude knitwear. Get the layered look by wearing a neutral jumper under a longline coat. Accessorise with a designer style cross-body bag to give your outfit an expensive touch.

 Celebrity Style Blazers

A chic blazer is the ultimate way to transform into a total boss babe! And guess what - they're timeless, meaning your bangin' blazer is always going to be right on trend. Courtney Smith makes any outfit look expensive by draping a designer blazer over her shoulders. But who wants to pay designer prices when you can add a stunning Sydney blazer to your basket!?

Molly brought great drama, great style, but most importantly… great hair.

Ever since we have been lusting after her long, blonde, healthy locks and wondering how she kept it in such great condition in the villa. We at Sydney have found the best hair extension tips for you lovely readers.

Never forget to brush! 

Brushing your hair is so important when it comes to hair extensions. Matted hair is not a vibe! Invest in a hair extension brush for smooth and sleek locks. We have linked a brush that will be perfect for all your extension needs. Thank us later girls! 


Say no to sulphates!

Shampoo with sulphates is so damaging for your extensions. Opt for a natural shampoo without any nasties for a silky finish. This is one of our favorites for extensions that are soft as silk   


At night

Never sleep with wet hair! Dry it out before bed and tie in a low ponytail. This saves your hair from getting tangled in the night and you can wake up with princess hair – just like Molly!

Styling

The key to get the Molly-Mae look is definitely styling. We are so envious of her gorgeous pin curls! Using a curling wand and some clips it is so easy to get the look. Just make sure you use heat protection girls! (P.S Molly-Mae herself has posted a range of YouTube tutorials on how to recreate her styles!)


Pamper your hair!

Make sure to apply a luxurious conditioning treatment once a week. You can even leave it in for a few hours whilst you do a work-out or binge watch Netflix. Your hair will thank you girls!

Well there we have it! Our five easy steps to care for your hair extensions and get the Molly-Mae look! Hope this helps girls! We are so excited for you all to have gorgeous locks.

The summer sun can cause extra oiliness, creases and smudging – basically not the look we’re going for, we prefer glowing not greasy.

The current heatwave in the UK means we need to nail our hot weather makeup routine, and we need to do it fast, before this glorious sun disappears again.

So how do you keep your makeup from melting in hot weather? If you prefer a full-face glam kinda vibe or you’re a more natural gal, we’ve got the best hot weather makeup hacks that will seriously save your face this summer.  

Weather-Proof Makeup Tips

Prime, Prime, Prime

You’ve heard it before and we’re telling you again, you need to use a primer to achieve flawless makeup!

There’s no way your makeup is making it past 20 degrees without a decent primer as your base. Once you’ve cleansed and moisturised, apply primer with your fingertips (don’t rub it in too much) and your beauty base is ready.

For dry skin, Too Faced Hangover Primer is super dewy and keeps your skin feeling hydrated – without being greasy!

If your skin is oily, Benefit The Porefessional Primer holds your makeup all day long, plus it’s oil free.

Powder Under Foundation Makeup Hack

Powder Under Foundation

Powder first, then foundation. Yeah, we’re serious.

This is an industry secret that’s been circulating online for some time. Beauty guru Jackie Aina has been doing this for years honey!

After priming your skin, apply a light layer of translucent powder all over your face with a brush. Then apply foundation on top with a brush, sponge or however you like. Trust us, this creates the most flawless base that won’t budge all day, even in extreme heat.

Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder is your best bet to get the perfect powder before foundation results.

Stop Mascara From Smudging Hack

Powder Your Mascara

If you didn't already appreciate the powers of a good powder, check out this powder and mascara hack.

Using your fingertips, dust a small amount of translucent powder on your lower lashes after applying mascara. This prevents mascara smudging under your eyes when things are heating up!

Summer Makeup Tips & Tricks

Setting Spray

Glam look complete? Time to lock it in with a setting spray.

Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray is the OG of setting sprays and ensures your makeup is completely weather-proof and won’t budge. For a drugstore option, NYX Matte Makeup Setting Spray is a great dupe.

Sweat-proof Makeup for Summer

Lip Balm Instead of Lipstick

Lip liner and lipstick are a recipe for disaster in hot climates. No one wants to be touching up their lippy every 15 mins when it’s roasting outside. Leave your lipstick at home and opt for an effortless lip balm instead.

If you’re colour obsessed, pick a balm that has a bit of tint, like Vaseline Rosy Lips. This way your lips still look kissable without all the effort of a lipstick.

Now your makeup is totally sweat-proof and weather-proof, you can enjoy the summer sun whilst still staying glam. All you need now is a cute summer outfit and a cocktail!

But let’s get real for a second – tan can go wrong, like, really wrong. Whether you’re an at home fake tanner or prefer a salon spray, there’s always a chance of a tanning nightmare, and when this happens YOU GOTTA GET IT OFF QUICK.

It’s not just in cases of tan tragedies that you need to remove your bronze. After a week or so, your fake tan will be fading and needs refreshed. We all know it’s best to start with a clean slate by getting that old tan off and prepping for your golden weekend glow.

We’ve tried some crazy things to remove tan over the years (honestly, crazy), so we can confidently say these methods are tried, tested and Sydney approved! Save yourself from fake tan misery with the best ways to get rid of fake tan.


BODY SCRUB

For times when “it’s not that bad”, a good body scrub will remove fake tan perfectly well.

Apply when your skin is damp and work in circular motions to exfoliate away unwanted dry skin and tan. Rinse off then apply your favourite moisturiser for sleek ‘n’ soft skin.

Using a gentle body scrub every day after tanning also helps it fade evenly and prevent those weird patches from forming. Trust us, a little exfoliation can avoid a total tan disaster!

Some of our top scrubs for maintaining a glowy tan are Soap and Glory Flake Away and Palmer's Cocoa Butter Body Scrub. Both are absolute bargains btw.


OIL

Baby oil, coconut oil, olive oil – seriously, whatever you have lying around the house. Oil is a great way to deeply moisturise and lift those patchy bits of fake tan right off.

Lather on the oil and leave on your skin for between 15-30 mins then soak it off in the bath. Having a bath works best as the combo of steam and oil lifts even the blotchiest areas of tan with little effort. Finish by gently exfoliating with a scrub or mitt and your skin will be feeling super smooth and tan free!


FAKE TAN REMOVER

Work smarter not harder by investing in a decent fake tan remover - they really do make your life easier.

One of our absolute faves is the Bondi Sands Self Tan Eraser. Simply rub on to dry skin, wait, then rinse. Instructions say to leave on for 5 minutes before showering, but we find 10-15 mins is what does the trick. For any pesky patches that won’t budge, scrub gently with an exfoliating mitt in the shower after you’ve applied the self-tan remover.

Now your tan is looking sleek, you just need some glowy makeup and a hot new outfit to see you through this summer in style.]]>

Want to hit the reset button on your interiors, but don’t know where to start?
Slow down and pace yourself girl! Take baby steps and start small. Redecorating is no easy task, but making subtle tweaks to a small area of your home can take your mood from 0 to 100, real quick!

We recommend starting with your dressing area – an important space in any gal’s routine.
Let’s face it, we spend most of our time here. Whether we’re getting glam for a night out, cleansing and pampering, or taking those all-important selfies for the gram! Your dedicated pamper station should serve a functional purpose whilst also being aesthetically pleasing.

We’ve pulled together some handy tricks to achieve your dream dressing room. Follow these top tips and dreamy pics for ultimate dressing room inspo.

Invest in a chic table


Every glam station will require a tabletop. We recommend a chic and simple dressing table where you can put your make-up on and take it off.

If you’re after some extra storage space, why not opt for a chest of drawers? Choosing a chest of drawers at the right height can double up as a dressing table and even a desk.
You can pick up this exact table from IKEA!

Make a statement


Add a statement chair to match your chic make-up table. Go grand with a cocktail chair or save space by choosing a stool which you can tuck away under your dresser.

Play around with the texture and colour to really pop in your room. We recommend a velvet chair like the picture above to add some luxe to your dressing space.

Have a place for everything


It’s time to stop cluttering our dressing tables with endless bottles of lotions and potions. Have a spring clear-out and refresh your old make-up and skincare. Try adding more shelves to help you stay organised with more space.

Why not try getting creative using metallic jars to store your make-up brushes or use marbled and mirrored trays to display your favourite products.

Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all


Invest in a big statement mirror and never miss a photo op again!

Adding a mirror into your room can make your space look bigger than it is and provide a focal point.

Mix it up with a free-standing mirror or go for a mounted mirror hung above your dresser.

Lighting is key


Lighting is important, if not the most important aspect in any area of your home! This is definitely true when it comes to your dressing area.

Add some Hollywood glam by opting for a vanity mirror with LED lights or choose a lavish lamp for mood lighting to create a soothing atmosphere.

Make it unique


Your glam station is unique to you and should be a stress-free zone. Make it personal by adding subtle touches of things that make you happy!

Try adding some candles or diffusers of your favourite smells. Why not print out some pics of your fave moments with your BFFS or some motivational quotes from the gram and pop them in a frame? You could also try stacking some books or magazines to keep inspiration close by.

We can’t wait to reunite with our girl gang - the next girls' night out is sure to be one we won’t remember the morning after!

Just because you can’t physically see your besties at the moment, it doesn’t mean girls' night is cancelled. We're making the most of FaceTime and Zoom and bringing our girl's night out, in.

Grab your squad (virtually ofc), set a date and follow our top tips for the ultimate virtual girls' night in.

Virtual Pub Quiz

Whether you’ve done a pub quiz before or not, now is perfect time to play! Brush up on your general knowledge and put your besties to the test.

Take on the role of quizmaster and create your own quiz or find questions that are already online (click here for a great quiz question website).

Don’t forget your drinks for the ultimate pub quiz experience!

Play a girl’s night playlist

Nothing screams GIRLS' NIGHT more than strutting your stuff to your squad’s rendition of No Scrubs.

Create the most fierce girls' night playlist with feel-good classics from the sassiest female artists to get you and your girls hyped for the night.

If you’re stuck on what to include why not check out PB’s Positivity Playlist for some inspo!

Pamper session

Self-care is a hot topic right now and any girl’s night (virtual or IRL) would be incomplete without a pamper session.

Grab your fave face masks, hair masks and relax while you de-stress. Follow up with a DIY mani and pedi, we can guarantee you and your girls will be feelin’ fresh!

If you’re really missing your gals, why not show them some love and send them a self-care package before your big girl’s night in - we're sure a PB gift card would do the trick 😉

After all, self-care is the best kinda care.

Watch a chick flick

Missing your weekly dose of soppy rom-coms with your girls? Say no more! Thanks to Netflix party, hosting a virtual movie night has never been easier.

Create your Netflix party on Chrome with your gals and put on your go-to chick flick.

Take advantage of the chat function to message your BFFS and discuss all your favourite iconic moments.

Make cocktails

The best nights are the ones you don’t remember!

Keep that motto going and indulge in a cocktail making session with your girls via Zoom.

Get creative and try recreating your go-to cocktails. You can also add some friendly competition and have a prize up for grabs - the person with the best cocktail gets a free drink from the rest of the group on your next night out.

Sounds like a no-brainer to us!

If you’re living with your bae, you might be struggling to keep the spark going.

Are you asking yourself: how do I do date night at home?

Don’t stress! We’ve rounded up some fun date night ideas that you can do from the comfort of your own home.

 Cook a meal together

Get drunk and karaoke

What’s a fun date night without a little booze? Do an at-home karaoke night where you can belt out your fav tunes and dance like no one’s watching - literally, because no one is watching.

The best thing? There’s no crowd to please so you can pick all your cheesy guilty pleasures to sing to all night.

Have a deep convo

Okay this one is a little cheesy, but it’s a cute (and priceless) date night idea. What more could we want?

Ask yourself when was the last time you and your partner took the time out to ask each other questions and really listen? You may be stuck in the house, but use this time to slow down and discover new things about each other!

Create your own cinema experience

With Netflix, Amazon Prime and the launch of Disney+ this one is a no-brainer.

Use your imagination to re-create a classic date night activity! Grab some microwavable popcorn, a blanket, and turn the lights low to create your own cinema experience in your living room.

Take it a step further for the ultimate cinematic experience and turn your phones off for no distractions.

Bake together
