Australia is home to some of the world's most talked about fashion bloggers and style icons. These women (and men) have turned their love of fashion (and travel!) into multi-million dollar businesses - and set out to design the sort of lifestyle one can only dream about.
What starts out as a hobby side project documenting style snaps, reviews and diary style entries has the potential to turn into an empire. Traveling the world, sitting front row on the fashion week circuit for the major designers, collaborating on capsule collections, working alongside brands... It's a fashion lover's dream come true. And we can see why!
Scroll on to meet the top female Australian fashion bloggers shaping the industry right now and a snapshot of the eye-candy content being dished out for us to marvel at.
