Unforgettable Moments – Girl in Red Shines Bright in Sydney Concert – Backseat Mafia
Norwegian singer-songwriter Girl in Red (Marie Ulven Ringheim,) is appearing at the Hordern Pavilion tonight. It’s a cold, clear winter evening outside, but inside, the venue buzzes with warmth and anticipation. A diverse crowd, waving LGBTQ+ flags and signs, eagerly awaits her arrival, belting out songs from the venue playlist with fervour, their voices blending into a powerful chorus. A particularly hearty rendition of Chappell Roan’s ‘Good Luck, Babe!’ fills the air, followed by an ear-splitting scream-along to Billie Eilish’s ‘Chihiro.’ Suddenly, she’s there, stepping into the spotlight, dressed in a sharp suit and bathed in red light. The crowd erupts in a crescendo of ear-splitting screams, their energy matching…

Can Botox Preserve Your Edges?
You might think of Botox for nothing more than wrinkle softening or forehead freezing, but did you know that the popular neuromodulator can also potentially stop the sweating in your head, which in turn, can make your edges last longer?

23 September Birth Flower Tattoos
Birth flower tattoos are becoming increasingly popular among ink enthusiasts, and it’s not hard to see why. While it’s perfectly fine to get a tattoo for purely aesthetic purposes, the design holds a deeper significance if it represents something uniquely personal to the wearer. Tattoos inspired by birth flowers somehow fit both categories. Each month corresponds to a designated set of birth flowers that encapsulate the core qualities of those born in that particular month. In addition to being meaningful, birth flowers are visually refreshing and timeless, making them an excellent choice for a tattoo. Whether you’re a Virgo or Libra, your birth flowers are morning glory and aster if…

What to Know Before Getting a Tragus Piercing
Piercings have become somewhat of a rite of passage for many people. From some getting their first set of earlobe piercings as children to others adding to their collections as they go through different milestones, getting a piercing is no longer deemed a concerning act of teenage rebellion but rather a fashionable, trendy form of self-expression. Though more untraditional piercing locations have surfaced over the years (looking at you, dermal piercings), sometimes you may just want to add a bit of flair to the place that started it all: the ear. As piecing culture has evolved, nontraditional ear piercings like snug, helix, and stacked-lobe piercings have become extremely popular alternatives…

Box Bob Haircut Trend For 2024
While each product featured is independently selected by our editors, we may include paid promotion. If you buy something through our links, we may earn commission. Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. It would be incorrect to say bob haircuts went out of style (they never have and never will) but over the past few years, they certainly weren’t favored as heavily as long hairstyles. Most of last year was ruled by flowy ’90s blowouts and cascading heatless curls, but after allowing that to play out for some time, many people are itching for a change and willing to chop it all off, leaving room for the latest…
