> Frost

Yoghurt. Hard to spell. Easy to eat. So easy in fact, that all you have to do is mosey on down to Frost Yoghurt Bar.

This new kid on the block serves 98% fat free frozen yoghurt. Pick from four base flavours including Original, Passionfruit, Berry & Green Tee and add three toppings of your choice.

If you’ve lost your teeth, or the ability to chew, blend all your fave ingredients up and drink them in a smoothie.

And for all you tech heads who can’t handle a arvo snack without your laptop, never fear, they have free wireless Internet. I’ve fallen in love. You will too.

Frost Yoghurt Bar, 164 Chapel Street Windsor, 9510 4525.

> Man-gift of the week

Has your man got an iPhone? Well if he hasn’t then maybe you should consider getting him one. Otherwise, if he does I found a few interesting iPhone applications.

Tee Shot, a golf scoring application at $23.99. Sudoku, to keep his mind sharp and your pockets full (it’s free). Spore Origins, a taste of the infamous evolutionary game to satisfy the sci-fi geek in every man at $12.99. If none of these suit, just buy him a beer (free as well) or do your own effing research. There are loads.

Just type these names into your iTunes store search engine and they pop up. Otherwise grab a gift card and shoot it his way.

> Scarf Solution

Wasn’t the weekend wonderful! A warm Saturday night. The kind of night that shooting stars would be seen, if it wasn’t for the city lights.

But I wasn’t ready for the pleasant temperature. Everything I had to wear was too warm. My body was too white. My legs hairy. And most of all it was too hot to wear a scarf. Devastating.

‘Fear not’ I said to myself. There’s a solution to every problem. And I found it. Include your favourite scarf into your summer outfit by wearing it around your wrist! Like a super big bangle.

It’s like tying them on to your handbag. But better. Try it.

> I Heart Huffer

Everytime I think of New Zealand I think of below youtube clip.

But now I will think of Huffer.

Because they’re ACE, and they have a funky website with wacked out pictures behind certain words.

On a more serious note, these guys believe that you should be able to move in your clothes and have created a collection to reflect their feelings. Cotton Tees and stretchy jeans that make you feel skinny.

STRETCH = LESS MUFFIN TOP = HOTTER. Yes please.

They’re just beginning to make waves over here so jump on before the rest of the world drops in on you.

Available at Plane and The Lab.

> Summer smarts

Have you seen this pic from The Sartorialist? Apart from the fact that her legs seriously depress me, I LOVE her outfit. Smart. Sexy. Sizzling. A great combo to move from aircon office to sun-struck streets.

If it’s too hot for a shirt, or you’re going to be working on your tan in a business meeting sipping lattes in the sun try it with a Bonds Tee ($19.95), or even an American Apparel singlet. Alternatively I’ve seen some great singlets from Lucky 13 (see website for stockists).

I popped into Lee over the weekend and the have an A+ range of denim minis for the summer. Light denim, dark, yellow and pink. V. Cute. And if you’re after a summery blazer try General Pants & Co.

Over and out.
