A regular customer for years now, I actually really love going in here and always find what I'm looking for. There's a great selection of products, and the staff are very friendly, approachable and always helpful in finding you the right product.
The cosmetics range is fabulous, great big name brands, and there's always loads in the specials baskets, not to mention they stock Bloom!

Great value I have to say. The restaurant itself is really nice and very friendly and welcoming, as are the staff.
The dishes are really nice, my favourites are the fresh warm bread with dips, saganaki, and the lamb is moist and tender and very flavoursome!

Fabulous food at a reasonable price, have been going here for years.
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly.
Again I would also advise a booking on most nights, and perhaps avoid Saturdays as it does get very busy and yes quite noisy.

Approximate cost: $18

They have some pretty up there brands, which is good to see in a local area, but some of it is a bit out of my price range. I usually see brands like Wish in there, which is a fave, and their sales rack holds great value with some actually pretty decent stuff!
You'll find everything from gorgeous, unique heels, to t-shirts, top jeans brands, dresses skirts and knits, even bags, jewelery and accessories.
Staff are generally friendly and welcoming.

Approximate cost: $25 - $300

This review is for Red Ginger Decor, Balwyn VIC

I always walk in and find at least a handful of things that I love. They have everything from picture frames to unique vases, fabulous books to real looking fake flowers, quirky little nick knacks to kitchen accessories and things for decorating your lounge room.
They have a range of inspirations from Chinese to Japanese to middle eastern and fantastic Australian products such as emu oil skincare and yummy Pamilli candles and soaps. But, if you're a fan of TROLLBEADS, this shop ALWAYS has a huge selection of beads, and they're really good at helping you find your perfect combination.

Approximate cost: $5-$450

This review is for Lemon Parade, Ivanhoe VIC

I have to disagree with some things. I actually find the staff bored, unenthusiastic and a little bit rude and dismissive.
However, I do agree they have some great brands, and PLENTY of gorgeous dressy dresses to choose from.
A minus though, their sales rack is always bursting at the seems with last seasons' gear and its never very exciting.

Approximate cost: $100+

This review is for Bisoux Bisoux, Ivanhoe VIC

The staff are always cheerful and friendly, and quite helpful in finding you what you need.
The clothes however, could be of better quality. Unfortunately their own branded clothes look a bit like they were made at home, which is a down-side.
On the other hand, they always have great accessories, jewelery, bags and wallets.
Occasionally you WILL find some great brands there, usually dresses. I have bought from here a few times now, either for myself or gorgeous gifts for girlfriends, and I always go home satisfied.
