Local Melbourne jeweller Lucy Folk is the brain behind this gorgeous accessory. Her three collections are called Seafood, Pasta and Nibbles - who knows what food group will be next? The food inspiration comes from hanging around her father’s café from when she was knee high to a grasshopper. Her jewellery is stocked at Alice Euphemia in Melbourne’s CBD and Arabella Ramsay in Armadale. Ahh what a clever cookie! 

Melbourne is known for good coffee. Since most of us have two or more coffees per day the non-recyclable cups contribute to an enormous amount of landfill. So as a means to maintain coffee drinking standards and save the environment, Abigail and Jamie Forsyth created the KeepCup. The KeepCup is reusable and colours can be mixed and matched to your liking! Baristas all over Melbourne are happy to put your coffee in your own eco-to-go cup! Stylish and reusable - Loves it!   

Has anyone notice this hideous winter trend of socks and open toe shoes? I think comes close to being as tragic as crocs! As you can see above, Burberry tried to make it work, but it is just looks like a 1940’s wannabe housewife! Thoughts?

Ahh Melbourne, the city that sleeps with one eye open! Now I know we are famous for our city hideaway bars and restaurants but what good is having a restaurant so hidden that it can’t be shared? My point exactly! So I wish to expose an underground and delicious secret! It’s called Coda- Asian inspired, modern and fresh seems to come to mind when I think of my meal. The presentation of the food makes each meal look like a piece of artwork. To match your meal they even have Travis the Sommelier to help you chose from a long list of beverages or if you’re feeling gutsy he will whip you up any surprise cocktail! Crack the code and discover the hidden gem’s of Melbourne’s laneways, you never know what scrumptious things you might find! 

It really is hard when you go and visit your chic friends overseas and don't know what souvenir to get them! The days of daggy opals, pencil size clip on koalas and boring books on Melbourne have now been thankfully replaced by the Melbourne scarves!! These gorgeous silk scarves have prints of various historic Melbourne buildings, which are sure to impress, even the most internationally stylish of friends!

It’s that time of year again where the who is who of Melbourne come together to celebrate fashion at Melbourne Spring Fashion Week! From the 30^th of August till the 5^th of September Melbourne will be covered from head to toe with designer clothing and accessories. Girls get ready to strut your stuff coz the models are in town! oohh I smell a walk off! 

Shag, I'm not talking about the British term for getting it on, but rather my favourite vintage shop! Located all around Melbourne each store feels like you have stepped back in time and fallen deep into your grandmother's closet! Eye-popping colours from the 60's, big fur coats from the 70's and shoulder pads straight out of the 80's there isn't one fad they have missed out! Different types of shoes line the bottom of the racks and glass cabinets are packed with large faux diamond rings and oversizes necklaces. So the next time you feel like having a bit of fun with fashion, or you simply have decade dress up party head to Shag for some inspiration!

We all love a pair of Ray-Bans, but you are going to love them even more now that you can frame them! Ray-Ban has teamed up with a bunch of creative designers to produce Rare prints. Artists such as Matt W. Moore and Paul Reilly have signed and numbered these limited edition posters, making any art collector feel at ease. Who knew a fashion icon cold be immortalised in such a grovvy way?! 

Today is the opening of the musical West Side Story in Melbourne!
