marie claire James Street Up Late

Fashion heaven!
That is my new name for James Street, Fortitude Valley in Brisbane.
Seriously, all of the most fabulous designers in one street!
Here is some of my fave shops on James Street


Camilla is my number one.

Ok, Camilla….the most beautiful kaftans, dresses & tops that I have even seen! The fabric that are used for this clothing line are simply stunning. They feel like liquid silk between your fingers. I could image slipping on one of these stunning kaftans & feeling like a million dollars. The colours are a range of vibrant, beautiful, eye catching to the more peaceful, serene pastels that I have ever seen.

And of course, bubbly & sushi!

There was street entertainment & even a Caribbean band.
Who doesn’t love to have a little boogie while shopping?

My favourite part of the night was meeting the ever fabulous & always beautiful Jackie Frank, Editor of marie claire magazine Australia.

When I got home & jumped online (as you do), I found that as she had promised, Jackie posted a photo on twitter that she took of us out the front of the marie claire pop up shop
