It’s been years in the making but the time has come for the mother of all European labels to hit our shores. . . Zara! The Spanish brand has become a part of every travellers suitcase and now we won't have to use an aeroplane to get those fabulous designs. No one knows if Sydney or Melbourne will be the lucky location but all we know is who cares???? ITS COMING TO AUS!!!!!! 

Local Melbourne jewellery designer Nicole Fendel has made her mark on the fashion world. Her signature pieces being seen on the women of The Circle, in Vogue, Instyle, and Madison magazine, just to name a few of her followers. Each necklace, earring or bracelet has a soft and feminine design, which can take you from day to night. Some pieces have meaningful inscriptions such as “Never live in the past but always learn from it”. These words so deep, yet so fashion forward. Stocked in Husk stores around Melbourne you will be sure to find that special piece to make a statement. 

American Apparel has just launched their new range of nail polishes. Coming in a variety of colours we are sure that you will be able to find something to match your American Apparel lycra bodysuit!

The once famed Candy bar in Greville St Prahran has undergone a delicious transformation! Now known as Ladro, the new modern Italian pizza joint is the place to see and be seen. With a contemporary interior this place still has the warm feel of an authentic Italian restaurant that you would find in Carlton. Open for both lunch and dinner we recommend the Scout and the Boscaiola thin-based pizzas! It is also worth leaving room for the Bomboloni- Italian doughnuts with vanilla ice cream and blood orange syrup!.....Salivation is at a whole new level!

The trench coat made famous by Burberry, Humphrey Bogart and Inspector gadget appears every winter in Melbourne. In an array or colours, shapes and sizes it is the original beige colour, which remains the classic piece year after year. So why is that it doesn’t date?  I guess it is the classic cut which seems to flatter most shapes and sizes. The lining of the coat appears to be just as important as the outer. Burberry’s classic plaid lining is what makes it distinct from all the copycats! But at the end of the day no matter what brand of trench you choose to buy pairing it with big black heels, the coat will always scream effortlessly chic.

Love them or loath them, one of the seasons hottest trends is the clog. From Chanel to Sportsgirl everyone is putting their wooden foot forward. I’m not sure if it’s possible to rock a blazer and tight black pants with a pair of clogs- too heavy no? What are your thoughts?

Looking for a groovy mode of transportation? Well I think we have just found it! Jelly Bean Bikes are the latest creation rolling around the streets of Melbourne.

It's a great way to shed some flab and be kinder to the environment! Those professional, lycra wearing cyclists, who yell out "passing" are sure to be jealous that they are no longer the cycling trendsetters!
