2. Fluoro Fun
 |
| Neon street style |
The current cold and windy Australian temperatures have yet to put a
stop to the Northern Hemisphere’s summer vibes, with neon colours showing up
everywhere. Designed in the form of shirts, skirts, accessories and more, these
crazy colours brighten up any outfit and look great paired with dark colours to
really make them pop. Try some detailed neon prints with solid colours for a
fun and flirty look, or only wear a couple of neon accessories so as to not
overdo on the fluorescent hues.

3. The Hemsworth Babes
 |
| Chris Hemsworth |
The Hemsworth brothers are two up and comers who are not to be messed
with. Liam, 22, and Chris, 28, have both recently starred in some of the
biggest movies in the world right now. Liam plays Gale in the exciting Hunger
Games trilogy, in which the first movie came out at the end of March. Chris, on
the other hand, plays Thor in the epic superhero movie, The Avengers, and also plays
the huntsman in the incredible remake of the popular classic, Snow White and
The Huntsman. Not only are they talented; these boys are hot! With their
muscular bodies, great smiles and beautiful eyes, the boys do of course attract
plenty of female attention. Unfortunately the brothers are in fact taken, with
Liam recently engaged to Miley Cyrus, and Chris married to Elsa Pataky, with 2-month-old
daughter, India Rose.

4. The Best Beaches
Australian beaches have been loved and favored for decades; with their beautiful white sand, blue oceans and a variety of fun water sports for all ages. With hundreds of beaches, such as Bondi and Manly, and hundreds of people there each day, Australia’s beaches are the perfect places to relax, enjoy your surroundings and meet new people. In the summer, the sun and sand are perfect for tanning and playing games along the beach such as volleyball or cricket. Those a bit wilder can dare the cool waters to go swimming among the waves. These waves can get pretty big, but are a whole lot of fun to swim under and wade over. They also attract water sports lovers, especially surfers, which can be a great activity to have a go at or just watch. As it’s winter now, most are reluctant to even approach the ocean. However, if you can brave it, the beach can also just be fun for taking beautiful photos or playing games on the sand. Also, for something even more adventurous and unforgettable, head over to The Great Barrier Reef to scuba dive or snorkel among the beautiful coral reef. Australian beaches have been rated among the best in the world, and are certainly worth visiting to escape the freezing winters in your country come December!

5. Boost Juice Bars
This delicious juice bar has shops all over Australia and Asia. They
make healthy and completely natural drinks, like juices, smoothies and crushes.
Perfect for cooling down in the heat, or just for a refresher after a long day
of shopping (which has been happening to me a lot recently), Boost juices come
in all flavours and appeal to all ages. The drinks come in different sizes for
the best possible size for you, and are definitely worth their relatively cheap
cost (often between $4 - $7.) A personal favourite of mine is Berry Crush; a
cold and sweet smoothie minus the yoghurt/milk for a slightly healthier option
(less fat as there are no dairy products.) Boost also has a variety of even
healthier options, such as wheatgrass shots. These are only small, yet
effectively target areas of your body, for example your immune system, to keep
you fit and healthy all day. Juices and smoothies are a tasty way to keep
yourself hydrated, and Boost excels at this!
6. Bambi Northwood-Blyth
Bambi is one model you surely will have seen before. With her signature eyebrows and grungy style, she is a uniquely stunning girl. Originally from Melbourne,
this 21–year-old has walked on catwalks worldwide and starred in numerous
campaigns. What makes Bambi stand out in particular is her chameleon-like ability to transform into all sorts of personalities. She can stay true to her rock n' roll side and be daring, or she can appear sweet and girly whilst frolicking in gardens or the ocean for photoshoots. Bambi has a great body too, standing at 5'7" with a fabulously slim figure. Her career took off in Australia in 2010, when she walked in several runway shows and appeared on a few magazine covers. Now Bambi is working in the USA for Elite modelling agency, continuing to blossom in the fashion world as an "it" model.

7. Knit Tops/Sweaters
Sweaters have been seen all over Australia this winter, both in stores and in street style. What better way to keep yourself nice and toasty than with woven cottons and wools? Paired with jeans or tights, these comfy tops look effortlessly cool and laid back. They can, however, also look chic with a nice blazer or jacket and some dazzling jewelry. There are hundreds of different knits among Australian stores right now, and hundreds more being worn by everyday Australian girls. They look great on all ages and skin tones, as you can get them chunky or slim fit, neon or monochrome. It's also lots of fun to wear these in demand tops that have patterns, prints or slogans on them to bring a little more youth to the look. To make your outfit a little more chic, wear them on top of sheer shirts for a very British style. Even the boys down under are in love with these sweaters, pairing them with jeans and some sneakers. Perfect for the wintertime, these knits go with almost anything and are very popular in Australia right now.
8. Hamish & Andy
There's no doubt that these two guys are hilarious. If you haven't already heard them on 2day FM (the best radio station in Sydney!) in their own segment of the Hamish & Andy Show, or watched them in their hit show, Hamish & Andy Gap Year, LOOK THEM UP NOW. Amongst my favourite entertainers, Hamish Blake, 30, and Andy Lee, 28, are comic geniuses. Their radio show covers a variety of funny topics, all discussed and mingled with some of Australia's best songs. They'll comment on current events worldwide and also make parodies out them, in particular making their own funny little songs to entertain people of all ages. Their show also works well to bring out their great senses of humor. Half way through season two, they're currently filming all over Europe. The show is hosted in London, and then broadcasted in Australia on Thursdays by the two comedians in a talk-show manner, replaying back what funny things they did and filmed throughout that past week. In an attempt to not give away too much (in case you do in fact take my recommendation of watching the show yourself! [episodes can be found on youtube]), the show also has similar segments each week. Most weeks they'll have a "Hamish vs. Andy" challenge, in which the two men go head to head in all sorts of bizarre competitions, including kissing and translation races. They will also often film "The Ultimate Wingman" segment, in which Hamish attempts to hook Andy up with dozens of women in silly and quirky ways. These guys are great, and are definitely worth at the very least looking up on Youtube!
I hope you liked finding a little bit more out about Australia! These are just a select few things that make my home country a truly amazing place, and I'm sure you'll agree with me when I say, what's not to love!?
