FAV NEIGHBOURHOOD SHOPPING

melbstyle: said this on Friday 17 July 2009, 10:45 AM; I love Chapel St.
Chap and I have had an 'on/off' relationship since I first learnt to shop :)
Yes, it's a bit mainstream and definitely had a bit of pretentiousness about it, but it does have a great mix of shops from boutique right down to op shops. I'm loving all the new bars that are popping up too.
It really sets the standard.

It always had vintage shops, but now has some good independent designer boutiques too. Plus, it has great fabric stores for when I feel like sewing my own creations!
If you want to make a whole day of it, it has the best restaurants for dinner, some cool bars & the Hopetoun for live music too! Ooo and Bourke Street Bakery!

You could spend all day shopping to your heart’s content and the best part is you’re guaranteed to leave the shopping strip with your hands full! Don’t worry, you won’t feel guilty cos’ all items are at an affordable price plus there are fab cafes if you have a minute to grab lunch :)

The people who work/own the shops are also very friendly, and across from there is a nice park with a creek, and has plenty of shops to grab lunch etc etc.

I also know of some on Murray st in the heart of Perth but on the other side to where all the main shops are, its kinda like down a laneway.

Mostly shop in the city though....
North of the river has better shops!
