My mum recommended this website to me over a year ago and I gave it a go mid-year and WOW! Exceptional service, really prompt communication and delivery and SOOO much cheaper than Hairhouse or similar stores here in Melborune. Really happy Catwalk, thank you so much for providing such a great website and such a great service!

Approximate cost: $20

After seeing the reviews on this site I gave the website a go and WOW - exceptional service! Good range - you seriously need to give it a go no matter where you live.

While visiting family we came across this little gem, which is growingly popular with the locals - all the bread had sold out by the time we'd gotten there. One of the best pies I have ever eaten, honestly! If you're a local or in Melton you HAVE to give it a try.

I only recently found this little one doing some Chrisie shopping - seriously fun gifts that are really reasonably priced.

Approximate cost: $20

Stewart's beautiful textile designs range from lifestyle products to a fantastic seven way dress to cubed modular soft-furniture. Being an artist and designer the range is constantly evolving and is certainly one of my absolute favorite stores in Melbourne, the staff are open and honest and the pieces just speak for themselves.

Super funky clothing for women and men - or should I say adolescent girls and boys :)
I really struggled to find anything that would fit me and I'm not a very large girl so beware - don't get too disappointed if there aren't any items that fit you either! REALLY liked their jewelery though - again a little, mmm 'emo'?, but certainly cool.

Beautiful lighting products and some nice giftware - really worth a look if you are remodeling - the staff a very knowledgeable.

I did a short cooking course here and had a ball! Normally I don't like cooking classes, not to boast but I rarely learn anything new, this time I was really challenged - it was awesome!

A great little shop for presies - really reasonably priced but beautiful pieces with open and honest service, great gift-wrapping and lovely community feel in-store.

Approximate cost: $25

If you are into French styled antiques and homewares, as am I, you will enjoy this range. Cote Provence has been one of my first choices for inspiration or antique pieces I know won't be everywhere.
