We always have a ball in Melbourne. So when a couple of our friends suggested we took advantage of the long weekend to fly to Melbourne. We jumped at it.
Shopping in Melbourne is great. It is just something about the grided city, the proximity of the shops, the accessibility, the style in which boutiques are fashioned, and the friendly sales assistance that makes shopping in Melbourne so rewarding and enjoyable.
I always make an effort to eye out things I could not find in Sydney.
Here are a few I love:
Hannii – Her pieces have a good fusion of orient with provocative modernism. I bought myself a lovely over- the- need-length skirt and a couple of tops from her Melbourne Central boutique. The fabrics used are tweed and beautiful china silk. The same team flowed through with her tops and coats. Very chic.
Metalicus – They have stockist in Sydney. However, the boutique is the only one that carries the full range. Perfect for layering and under jacket camisole.
GPO Melbourne – Be prepared to do some serious shopping. This mall house high end fashion labels like Belinda, Fat, Karen Miller, Harrolds, Akira, Zimmermann, Lisa Ho and the likes. Very very pricy.
Cactus Jam – Located in the heart of the QV mall has collections from designers like Willow, Karen Miller, Indigo and _____. Beautiful fabrics, soft drapes, luxurious and timeless pieces.
Snag – You will find very independent and unique pieces in here. The buyer goes round the world collecting buys that fancies her and it really gives the shop a sense of individuality. Perfect for little finds. It’s located in the heart of the city.
