Shop Local: Part 4

Skirt: Queen
Belt: Jag

Yep, another item from Queen Clothing. I couldn't go past this skirt (which also comes in denim blue) partially because I have such a soft spot for the work of Ghost Patrol, and partially because it's such a lovely cut.
In essence it's your basic a-line skirt, but the scooped hem adds a bit of everyday glamour. Coupled with an oh-so practical hidden pocket at the front (like an apron!) and a little bit of pizazz at the back it all spells "winner!" in my eyes.
I'm not sure who the little dude on the front is - he's certainly not Ghost Patrol's most famous creation, CatRabbit - but there's something so wickedly "Where The Wild Things Are" about it that how is a kid's publishing rep supposed to resist?

Oh Queen is my all-time favourite clothing store/designer and I have spent far, far too much money there...! I own like 4 pairs of the Obi pants - most comfortable thing EVER. And two pairs of identical jeans - although one I got at the studio sale for $20 - they have the best sales, cheap, cheap.

Thanks Caroline!

Bec, I've been a Melbourne sales rep for, oh, 5 years now, and I still find new treats every so often! It's such a Melbourne thing!

Georgie Love, I tried the Obi pants on, and loved them, but I'd already bought SO MUCH!! LOL, must go back post-stimulus-package!

I LOVE that skirt too!!

Sadly, I'm a bit out of Queen's size range. But one day in the future I might not be. Then I'll be popping in and seeing what they have. :)

I love both the dress and the skirt. Thanks for including the link to the site. I can already see I am going to have to head down to Melb and spend my savings! My favourite ever pants come from Queen. The sailor ones...I cant recommend them enough.
