I have a collection of clothing in my wardrobe that is beautiful, unique and quality. Some pieces…read morehave been in my wardrobe for over five years and still I would never give them up. Each and every piece in this collection is from Entity. A boutique like no other in Sydney set in Chastwood Chase, this is the place to shop if you're looking for something standout with a long life. The racks are bursting with labels like Zambesi, Nom D, Nolita, Rare, Marnie Skillings, Kate Sylvester, Camilla & Marc, Cohen & Sabine...the list goes on. The shop is owned and often manned by Fiona who does all the buying and has an excellent eye. She is an enthusiastic sales person but if you're willing to accept her help she really will pull something fantastic for you. She won't ever try to sell you in to something that doesn't look good on you. The store is pricy, but trust me the investment is always well worth it. Tip to grab a bargain? Entity has excellent sales at sale time, so hit it up at tax time or post Christmas.

I've been shopping at Entity for many years. There is no other shop like it, Fiona has a wonderful…read moreeye and chooses exquisite pieces that last many years. Fiona will help you pick out something that makes you look current and beautiful. It's expensive but it's an investment you won't regret.

Man I wish I bought an apartment in this area 10 years ago, I'd be Australia's richest man right now. With Zara, Uniqlo, Top Shop and now H&M there's global fashion up the wazoo down Chatty way these days. This H&M is big, there's no homewares section but if you're looking for clothes you're well and truly covered, we're talking stumble-out-with-16-outfits type shopping, and they've kept the price points hella cheap (unlike, say, Sephora. Oh yes, we know about you, Sephora. For shame). Go. Splurge. There's even some limited edition shopping bags for the true believers.

Long considered the fiefdom of fifteen year old sluts, I have recently rediscovered Supre. I'm not…read moresure if it's because I myself am embracing the inner skanky teen, the clothes are becoming nicer or the trend of the day is sluzza. Regardless, I find myself drawn to the neon lights and glitter that is Supre. And it's not half bad! For the price you must pay, you get a helluva lot more than you would at most other shops in Chatswood Westfield. The easy sizing system (XXXS - XXXL) means that most people can find what they like in their size ASAP, and not feel too offended by what the label says. The other great thing about Supre is that it allows us to be trendy, not spendy (geddit?) For a fraction of what you'd pay for on-trend items elsewhere, Supre has them - in all the colours of the rainbow. Not mad about the top in pink? Go the black option. Prefer the shorts in faux denim? Also possible. However, with cheapness comes... cheapness. Supre is not built to last, nor is it built to make you look classy. After all, the top that's $50 elsewhere comes out of Supre for $35. But then, Supre never pretended to be all hand-made organic cotton - then fell to pieces. It was never the shop that sold rare, handcrafted lace pieces - that can't be washes. No, Supre is the place to go to give your wardrobe a cheeky update, a quick shot of this season fashion, without breaking the bank. Call it what you will, but Supre has endured and even grown in an incredibly tough retain climate.

I've never been a huge Supre fan. Cheap and cheerful it is, particularly for those who have a very…read morelimited budget. Tops my be $5 a piece but they fall apart after a few washes and you'd end up spending as much if not more than if you'd bought a quality made garment. The thing about this store is that it's small. So unlike the warehouse size versions I've seen elsewhere, where your more likely to find something a little more unique than a plain singlet, this one is pretty anti-variety. If you are a Supre fan I wouldn't make a special trip to this store.

Of course, this is just like any other Witchery, a brand which I really like. I like the fabrics…read morethat they use, the the cuts of the tons are generally very flattering. I have to say that that staff here are a bit snooty and don't even try to help you, even if you are obviously looking a bit lost. I went into the dressing room with about 10 items and not once did someone come to ask me if perhaps I wanted a different size or anything at all. I found that a bit amazing since I was one of the only people in the store. I always thought the prices are a bit high, but hey, that's what sales racks are good for. In the sales rack, good tops go for about $35. I like Witchery so definitely try it out if you're looking for some good quality, simple clothing. But don't expect any service here.

I don't know how much stuff costs from this place, and frankly I don't want to. I know it is a…read moremore expensive lingerie shop. So I am writing this to say they got some nice items and I am always happy when my wife decides to buy some stuff from this store. I would include photos (for science of course), but I'm pretty sure the wife would not approve.

This is a high end lingerie shop in Neutral Bay, the appareil is very classy and glamorous. You…read morewould want to be seen walking around in your under garments when you buy something from here. The fabrics and prints are spectacular and you will feel 100% sexy in this attire. If you are going to buy yourself a once a year treat and something to make you feel like a princess, then come to Moda Intima on Military Rd - you will definitely find something to suit you. It is not cheap, a bra on average is over $50 - but for an occasion like an engagement, anniversary, special birthday milestone, it could be just what you need to help make it a special night.

I came across the lovely Peruvian Esly at the North Sydney Markets where she had a stall with…read moreimported alpaca clothing. I've spend a bit of time in Peru so was instantly drawn to her stall for nostalgia's sake initially but then I saw, and more importantly felt, the fine fabrics of the Alpa clothes. The most sweet and simple little girl's alpaca top was too much to resist until I saw the organic cotton crochet dresses for women (and then I completely forgot about my daughter's upcoming 1st birthday and the alpaca top I could buy her as a gift). The material was so soft I tried two dresses on there and then and subsequently bought one. $60 is an outstanding price for an organic dress of this quality. Quite the greeny myself I enjoyed talking to Esly and hearing about her journey of discovering the debilitating impact the textile industry has had on our environment. Environmentalism is a relatively new concept for many South American's who have seen nature as a way out of economic slump but there are a lot of young people like Esly who are working at contributing to trade with eco credentials in check. Alpa clothing also do jumpers, cardigans, scarves, slippers, singlets, men's clothing and hand made jewellery. Keep an eye on their website for their retail store opening soon.

I like this woman's clothing store a lot as long as you can turn one blind (just one because…read moreotherwise you're not going to be able to see) eye to the price. The clothes are smart, structured and fit for a woman. They have silk and cotton tops, skirts, dresses, trousers, and scarves as well as sunglasses and they will suit if you are a conservative or a classic dresser. I have a beautiful cream cotton and silk top with black stripes that I bought here which I love. I also bought some great dark blue straight-leg trouser pants here which have served me really well. So yes, the prices are more on the expensive side but there's no need to empty out the store - a couple of pieces from here will benefit your wardrobe nicely. Also, if you think you've seen this store before take note that it's the more cool-casual twin of Max Mara which looks and feel more corporate.

Clothes at Max & Co suit my style and preference for quality and I don't want to stretch my budget…read moreto shop at Chanel even though I'm tempted. I shop at the Sydney Chifley Square store and with the help of "my stylist" also known as the store manager (Pam ?? ) I walk away with a divine mix of clothes that I never could have put together myself. Initially I think "that's not me" but I'm asked to try on a few pieces and to my surprise they make me feel that I would be at home in Paris or Milan. Ok, Ok, my friends at least tell me I look chic, I guess it's the confidence that is inspired by "my stylist" and the suggestions of which classic pieces that I could add and also accessories that Max & Co may not sell. This limits my impulse buying of clothes that I regret and may not even wear. I should add that you may not initially appreciate that being told "that does not suit you" or "try this size" but at the end of the day you are not told that you look "great" in something that does not suit you or fit you properly. Get a "stylist" or use mine at Chifley Plaza, I call it "no regret" shopping and is cheaper in the long run.
