Australia Day! It's a unique holiday where we get together with friends and family, have bbqs and eat pavlova, go to the beach and enjoy the outdoors and all-in-all celebrate our identity.

We all have different experiences of being Australian. Some have lived here for generations and don't associate themselves with any other culture. Others see Australia as a land of the second chance, a place where they've been able to forge a new and more prosperous life. For others, Australia Day will always be associated with the arrival of white man on this wide brown land.

Regardless of when Australia Day is celebrated, it's important to have a day that is distinctly ours. It should be all encompassing day where we can celebrate our multicultural nation with its long and ancient history. A day where we can listen to the Triple J Hottest 100, or eat lamb or even make world records with giant inflatable thongs.

So whether you've been an Aussie for 5 minutes or 5 thousand years, Happy Australia Day! Don't drink too much, and throw another prawn on the barbie!

Being fashionable while exercising is something that I've never given a lot of thought to. I figure by the time I'm done, I'll be sporting a bright red red face and my clothes will be covered with sweat patches and a less than pleasant odour. Realistically, no one is going to look at me and think 'wow that is a particularly fetching t-shirt she's got on. I wonder where she got it?'.

However that's not how it works in the professional sporting arena. At the Australian Open this week there has been a lot of attention on the lovely lady players and their super cute tennis outfits. Maria Sharapova has been getting plenty of attention, and considering she got ousted in the first round, it's certainly not for her tennis. 

The tennis court has even become a sort of catwalk for the top fashion brands. They see centre court as a place where they can launch their latest apparel and colours trends before millions of worldwide viewers.

It's pretty clever, we admire these young athletes with their healthy, lithe bodies and think, 'I wish I could have what she has. With a bit of help from Nike or Reebok, maybe I can!'

Of course, sometimes outfits don't end up as planned, and there's a bit of a malfunction. Wouldn't want to be the brand responsible for this girl's lycra body suit at a world championship bobsleigh race in Switzerland!
