Sleep it off: The Darling Point Pad
No excuse needed for treating yourself to a few zzz’s in this glamorous, privately rented penthouse. The pimping pad spans the entire top floor of a 1930’s mansion so you can watch over the rest of the city.

Eat Together: Duke Bistro
This laid-back bistro is the latest hangout for the fashion-forward hipsters of the Eastern Suburbs. Take a seat on one of the communal tables and order some of its famous food/booze concoctions like the kingfish gin & tonic.

 Dive Drinking: Sticky
It’s amazing this clandestine haunt has managed to stay under the radar for so long. Of course, getting there (down a deserted laneway, press a door buzzer and cross your fingers) might have something to do with it. Once inside, it’s worth the wait.

Caffeine Fix: Allpress Roastery
If you don’t already know about Allpress, it is possible you have been living under a rock. Sydneysiders who take their brews seriously can be found lining up around the block to grab a rich flat white.

Dance Queen: Slide
If this opulent club can in human form, she would be Liza Minelli. This Art Deco building offers up cabaret, burlesque and over-the-top entertainment to keep you dancing until dawn.

Cleaning your leather shoes

by Joelyne

I’ve found that my shoes get dirty quite quickly – so I’ve decided to polish my shoes at least once or twice a week. And after each use I like to brush them to get rid of the dirt build up, which helps protect the leather and lengthen your shoe life. For normal leather, like these, get yourself a soft cloth, shoe brush & a commercial shoe polish.

It doesn’t take long – I like to do it on a Saturday in my free time. Just brush the dust off them first, then use a damp soft cloth with soap and clean off the dirt. Get your shoe polish, blot the polish all over, and then rub it in evenly. I like using the sponge polishes for easy application.

Favourites

These Mollini patent leather boots, are one of my favourites for Autumn/Winter. I wore them into a shoe store a few weeks ago, and was trying on a pair of shoes. So they were sitting beside me, and I was ready to put them back on, when a girl pointed at them and asked the shop assistant, “Do you have those in size 9?” – the ultimate compliment.

Weekend

ph. by me
This weekend has been quite a pleasure, I must say! It has been filled with lots of delights, including these macaroons. Went to a Lingerie Party, very much like a Tupperware Party, except with lingerie of course. Didn’t buy anything but was very impressed with the tips and tricks for looking after your lingerie. At the party, these macaroons were presented and I had to take a photo.
