HOT – Urban Bloom Floral Delivery Service

By CazM ⋅ February 7, 2012 ⋅ One comment

Here’s something a little different – no coffees, no cakes, no booze or burgers. Instead, it’s a review on a local, home grown subscription based floral delivery service. Urban Bloom is bringing sexy back to homes and boardrooms alike in the Brisbane city and surrounding suburban areas; from small arrangements as a beautiful centre piece [...]

HOT – Hamptons Home Living – 180 La Trobe Terrace, Paddington.

By CazM ⋅ January 20, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

This is without a doubt the best venue in Brisbane that I’ve been to when it comes to enjoying a view, in conjunction with my first and favourite meal of the day . Not only is the outlook exceptional at Hamptons Home Living, but so too the food, the coffee, the service….the whole lot was [...]

HOT – Max Brenner – Shop 1.1 and 1.2, Stanley St Plaza, Southbank

By CazM ⋅ September 23, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Ok, so Max Brenner and his wicked stores don’t need much by the way of introduction, so I’m just gonna tell it how it is. There’s always a queue, if not 10 or so deep it’s well out the door, particularly in the evenings. There’s a general lack of order and grace in the whole [...]

HOT – Jan Powers Farmers Markets – Logan Rd, Stones Corner.

By CazM ⋅ September 14, 2011 ⋅ 2 comments

Jan Powers has taken a leap of faith and brought her farmers markets to the quirky Logan Rd strip in Stones Corner – otherwise home to a few hit ‘n miss cafes and clothing shops alike, plenty of empty run down stores and a mish-mash of people from all walks of life. Stones Corner reeks [...]

HOT – Home Store & Cafe – 20 Stewart Rd, Ashgrove.

By CazM ⋅ August 4, 2011 ⋅ 2 comments

With only a vague idea of where we were heading, and a small battle with the street directory, MM and I had worked ourselves into a state of reluctance and mild anxiety as we made the trip to Home Store & Cafe in Ashgrove – a side of town we’re not too familiar with. Good [...]

HOT: The French Corner – 240 Enogerra Rd, Newmarket

By CazM ⋅ November 22, 2010 ⋅ 5 comments

When it comes to interior decorating, I haven’t got a creative bone in my body and am useless at visualising how colours palettes of walls, floors, furniture etc can be harmonious. One thing I know however, is that MM and I are in need of a kick-arse, bold, make-a-statement mirror for the dining room in [...]

HOT: Little Jane St – 5C Winn St, Fortitude Valley

By Kylie ⋅ November 2, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Little Jane St is brainchild of the lovely Alarna Zinn. Having spent the last few years selling her gorgeous paper wares through her online store as well as third-party stores around the country, shoppers can now get their hands on Alarna’s lovely products at her very own Brisbane store. Alarna has packed a huge [...]

HOT: Nook, 19 Browning Street, West End

By Kylie ⋅ June 4, 2010 ⋅ One comment

Tucked away next to an old boarding house in Browning Street, West End, is the delightful Nook, which opened in August 2009. Mid last year, hop owner Michelle Gillies very creatively set about turning the front room of her home into her very own ‘treasure trove of handmade, eco and indie finds’ (in Michelle’s own [...]

HOT: IKEA

By Jetsetting Joyce ⋅ April 6, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

So it’s Easter long weekend, what are your plans? Facebook tells me that ‘Jane is going to Paris’, ‘Michael is heading to Munchen’, ‘Ev is eating mochi in Japan’ ‘Caroline is getting ready for Stockholm’ and ‘Isabelle is in the Alps’. And Jetsetting Joyce? She is going to IKEA. I’ve officially checked out of Life. [...]
