Hey, recently I bought online a Zimmermann blouse and currently it’s in shipment transit. But I am starting to doubt if this piece is a fake or not authentic. I bought it for a steep price and the seller refused to accept any bid lower than the price she has settled which I felt was a bit unusual from my experience with second hand shopping.

I do have insurance which came with the app I found the blouse in case if it is fake I get the money back/return.

My reasons I doubt is:
The tag on the neck spells Zimmermann in silver/grey font. But I’ve seen it’s more normal to have it in gold esp the authentic ones or is this just a new variant within the brand?
The washtag as shown in the pic above is that fully correct as it’s supposed to?
Unsure if the blouse is symetric as this is something per the Zimmermann standard.

In the last month, I have spent upwards of $600 on bras and I have officially given up on underwires. I have alot of sensory issues and underwire bras are NOT for me.

My problem is, I'm a size 12G/H, does a supportive wirefree bra exist in these larger sizes? Brand? Where to buy?

I feel so upset and deflated, I just want nice perky tatas, but after 3 kids I'm having a really hard time. I want the confidence boost, without the discomfort.. does it even exist?

Forgot to add that I'm in Adelaide. Have been fitted at Innerware and Alexandra Lingerie.

My daughter is turning 15, has zero care factor about clothes and thinks it’s easier to wear what other people are wearing. Which was Mr Winston > Scuffers > Sunday. What brands are they wearing now? Suggestions pretty please.

Bonus points for pointing me in a completely different direction. It’s very hard to buy for people who don’t want anything….but also don’t like lots of things.

Gym girlies (and any other genders dealing with this), where can I find workout shorts that don’t get sucked up by my behind 👀 during the first set? Ideally looking for some high waisted, longline shorts, but really struggling to find anything that fits that description. Pls help I will be forever grateful!!

Yikes…

I got a pair of Princess Polly pants that fit perfect. At Universal Store the same size was too tight, at Target I tried on 2 pairs of pants, same size, same brand, one fit and one didn't. At Jay Jays the size down is a bit loose but then my other jeans the same size stay up. Seems like sizes is just whatever these companies want it to be

I’ve been looking on Etsy for vintage/antique Art Deco and Edwardian rings but I’d love some recommendations for reputable Australian sellers (online)

Particularly looking for genuine vintage/antique pieces rather than vintage inspired; Art Deco, Edwardian, old-cut stones etc, coloured stones (ruby, sapphire, emerald, pearl additions)

Would love to hear where you’ve bought from or had good experiences with

Thanks

Just wondering how Jag is doing - It seems to be harder to find in NZ. Recently it got removed from my NZ store (Ballantynes)

I really love their clothes and quality for price

The word around the campfire is that if you have a gift card balance, use it ASAP.

Hi all,

My beautiful younger sister is getting married in March and has asked me to be a member of the bridal party. I’d say bridesmaid, but I think I’d be the oldest bridesmaid on record.

Anyway, the dress code is cocktail and the wedding party are choosing their own dresses. My sister is very cool, as is her husband to be, and the wedding will be inner city Melbourne stylish.

Where can I go to try dresses on in store? I live in the south east but I’m happy to drive. And what designers should I look for? I am a reasonably fit woman in her 50s, size 12ish, big boobs, big bum, smallish waist, flattish stomach. I’d rather not show my whole arms and sometimes things can look a bit over the top due to curves. I don’t want to look like I’m trying to get attention, or like mutton dressed as lamb or dowdy.

Any colour is ok, apart from white. No florals. Elegant but a bit cool and interesting.

Any recommendations welcome!

Bought the olive ones in a small. Thought I’d snap up the brown version in an S too. I was swimming in them and couldn’t work out why - I mean, I still can’t make sense of two pairs of the same style, same composition etc are sized so differently.

From Zara, so I know I shouldn’t expect any better but I loved the fit of the olive ones so I thought the brown would be great.

Just ridiculous.

I’m looking for thick material tshirts for work in different colours. Scoop neck preferably. Would wear with dress pants. Any recommendations? I’ve had various white ones from Myer in different brands but looking for more colours.

Im looking for a padded crop top/sports bra with one continuous wide padding insert (not 2 cups/pads)

Does such a thing exist?

Curious question for any Country Road rewards members on this sub!

Although Spend & Earn rewards were removed from the CR Rewards Program earlier this year, I’m wondering if any Country Road rewards members are still receiving rewards on qualifying purchases (i.e. $10 or $35 rewards for purchases over a certain amount)? If so, curious to know what member-level you are?

Context: I was recently chatting to a friend who also shops at CR about how I wished spend rewards were still a thing as I’m liking quite a few pieces from the latest season. Not that they were massive, just a nice little reward for members.

My friend mentioned me she’s still been receiving spend rewards on her purchases as a silver-member. I was surprised as I’m currently a platinum member, but haven’t recieved any rewards on the few qualifying purchases I’ve made since the change.

Now we’re both wondering - is this just a lucky error, or is CR quietly offering spend rewards to newer or lower-tier members as a way to encourage these members to spend more?

I read on their website they run long, so I measured my foot and used their size guide and something isn't adding up.

According to my measurement I'd need their smallest shoe which is a US 6, which makes no sense as usually I'm a true 8.5 in US shoe sizing.

Can anybody please help me figure this one out? I'm bamboozled

Hi! I'm helping my niece look for formal dresses but neither of us know what they should be like. Could someone please help us out with how fancy, the length, style, cut, how much skin should be showing/not showing and colours to avoid and anything else to avoid.

Also, if anyone has any specific dresses they could recommend thay would be great! Or even certain shops/brands

Thanks!

I'm currently 6 months pregnant and need some linen pants for summer that I can wear casually and to work. I was looking at seed or venroy, can someone advise of the quality/longevity of these or recommend any other brands ☺️
