We're busy packing and pricing in time for Perth Upmarket on Sunday. Perth Upmarket has moved location to Winthrop Hall at UWA. We think this new location will give some much needed elbow room to our customers. It was pretty cramped at the Town Hall.
Our new range will feature some butter-soft 100% leather handbags. Some of our all time faves have had a remake and they are looking good! Also, we've put in a microsuede lining into these bags which is a really nice luxurious feel and very durable as well!
Our new washed-velvet-silk scarves are ready to go. My favourite colour for this season has to be the green. It will look terrific with jeans on the weekend, or dressed up with greys. I'm going to pop on one of our new quirky brooches -- can't decide between the Adam and Eve or the Retro TV. Maybe I'll wear both!
See you on Sunday!
Photos will come online in about a week. If you can't make it to Upmarket, then Evolve Gifts will have a great range of bags and scarves as well!

What Magazines Do You Read?
I've been watching that excellent series on the ABC about Mags. Have you? It has burst the bubble on the truth about magazines and why they write (and photograph) what they do. But who is really leading who? Do we, the reader, determine the content, or is it the magazine editor?
The recent episode talked about the celebrity baby making epidemic, and how this could revive or extend a career. Photos of the baby bump, then the baby, then how quickly they get back into shape, then the diet and exercise video and so forth. Why are we so obsessed with looking at these 'famous' people?
When my Yr 9 daughter had to list world-famous Australians for her school homework this week, I was dismayed that the list was like a Hollywood who's who -- Heath Ledger, Mel Gibson, Nicole Kidman. When I pointed out some of our famous scientists and so forth -- Fiona Woods for example -- she had 'forgotten' them. Note to self: more talk around the dinner table about people who are changing our world (the real world, not the digital world).
Anyway, back to the magazines. "Girl in a Satchel" listed the content on February's magazines. Its alarming! Have a read of it at: http://girlwithasatchel.blogspot.com/
The good ole Australian Women's Weekly is top of the polls with a grand 32% content!
Are we losing the art of reading? Are we buying magazines for the glossy photos, rather than the content?
I buy Vogue, Instyle, Bazaar and Shop Til You Drop magazines for the photos, I'm not ashamed to say it. However, I buy them purely for business reasons, they provide inspirations behind some of our handbag designs. But when I'm just being me, I'm a "Delicious" magazine buyer, because it reminds me about the talented chefs in this world, and I dream about the dinner parties I used to have!
What magazines do you read? We'd love to know ...
