Morning Tea with Times Square Claremont

Combine sweet treats with anything, and you have the recipe (pardon the pun) for a successful morning.  Even better if the 'anything' is fashion of the finest kind.  Times Square Claremont did just that this morning at a lovely morning tea they hosted for a group of pretty girls bloggers, during which we waltzed around the shopping strip causing mental credit card damage & trying to restrain ourselves.

We began in SIMA Art Gallery with treats from Littlesweet baking.

After some chatting, a dose of caffeine & a lot of sugar, we headed out to take a look at the shops that Times Square has to offer.  It was strange that even I, a Perth resident for nearly 23 years and Claremont-frequenter-extraordinaire, hadn't noticed some of the stores before.  Get out from under that rock, S!

Lost Souls (above) is such a dangerous shop full of goodies that stocks local labels like Tindale & Wild Horses.  It also houses what remains of Recollections, a consignment store that my Mum & I loved, but has sadly shut down!
Some financial damage was done at this shop, but you won't be able to see it for a while ;)

Sana - home to a lot of quality designers like Bec & Bridge, Equipment & Anna Excell.  Definitely the place to go if you deserve a treat / need something for an occasion / need to stock up on fluffy jumpers.

Lastly, what would a trip to Times Square Claremont be without popping into the the King & Queen of glamour?  That is, Alvin Fernandez of Ae'lkemi (who was actually there and is so lovely & welcoming!) & Ruth Tarvydas.  (top 2 photos & bottom 2 photos respectively)


All in all, a great morning!  Sadly T was busy at uni & couldn't come, but her camera kept me company ;)

  5. I spy chunky knits! I really need to stock up on said knits, as I'm fairly certain I'll be living in them come winter. Love the photos, but not that they make me want to buy EVERYTHING! Thanks a lot S.

    1. I too saw Steph's shots and decided I needed to go to Sana to get my knit-fix. Darn, ignorance was bliss.
