CLOTHES THAT TRAVEL WITH YOU IT’S ALL IN THE FABRIC Exclusive, sophisticated and avant-garde - Urbbana Men’s Style Studio is at the forefront of worldwide fashion trends, and this season the focus is on the fabric. Pattern, print, colour, texture and quality all come into the equation when sourcing on-trend, seasonal fabrics. Urbbana owner Sam Abi has selected 80 new fabrics for the 2014 shirt collection, to keep the designs fresh. He uses only the highest quality two ply cotton and Italian linen in his shirts and the finest wool and silk in his suits, all year round. The latest collection certainly showcases Sam’s commitment to the brand’s distinctive style. While you will find a fantastic mix of popular winter fabrics and patterns in Urbbana’s eye catching autumn/winter collection, it is the rich, smooth, textured fabric - velvet - that is the hero of the season. Velvet made a subtle come back last year and it is popping up all over the runways - and on the racks at Urbbana - again this year. The velvet blazer is at the top of Sam’s list of must-have pieces, with cutting-edge designs that can be found in navy, black, brown and burgundy.
ANIMAL PRINT NEVER DIES
Luxurious, simple clothes with a philosophy of ‘less is more’ - Mela Purdie is a label for the modern woman and you can now find it at Marg K. Quality, well cut basics are the essentials in a busy woman’s wardrobe and that is what this brand is all about. For those that travel for business, or for pleasure, packing is always a hassle. What will the weather be like? Will I need to dress up for dinner or dress down for a relaxing afternoon? Before you know it, your entire summer, autumn, winter and spring wardrobe is being shoved into a suitcase. The Mela Purdi range helps you to shrink that travel bag. It’s comfortable in all climates, allows you to travel light and ensures the right look for effortless style on the move, meaning you can depart in comfort, arrive in style, and wrap and layer for a fast change.
Animal print - it comes and it goes and it comes back again. This sassy, sexy print is cyclical, there is no doubt about it and leopard print certainly remains ruler of the fashion jungle. Yes reds, blacks and greys are winter essentials but no-one can deny that there is something about leopard print that sets off an outfit and brings out that inner goddess - let’s face it, animal print has to be worn with confidence. Tracey Mathers Shoe Studio has not disappointed this year with an array of winter shoes and boots popping up on the shelves, including some playful yet tasteful leopard print boots, and we just love them.
GO SLEEK AND BOLD THIS WINTER The long bob and the asymmetric bob haircut is the hottest style for 2014 according to the creative stylists at Fadi’s Hair. For those that are looking for a style more striking, the short pixie look is also in this autumn/winter. These hairstyles are best accompanied by the latest fashion week’s runway ‘street style’. This latest trend embraces the individual within, keeping the look unique, fresh and endlessly imaginative. For a desirable overall stylish appearance, well manicured make-up with matte skin will certainly finish off an impressive look.

LIFESTYLE MODERATION IS THE KEY Easter is looming, which means family catch ups with drinks and tasty foods and of course... Easter eggs. There is no need to deprive yourself, but just remember, it is all about balance. Energy in over energy out.

But to make yourself feel a little better about it all, why not sign up to Jetts Fitness Hamilton and let Personal Trainer Jaimie Weaver take care of the ‘energy out’ part. Sign up now, before the end of April for a $0 joining fee PLUS receive two free group fitness sessions with every personal training session booked with Jaimie.
ELLA BACHE’S TIPS FOR THE PERFECT BROWS According to the team at Ella Bache Hamilton, perfectly groomed eyebrows do wonders to enhance a face – they balance features, frame your eyes and signal to the world that you’re polished and poised. But when it comes to eyebrow maintenance, there’s a very fine line between the perfect shape and that oh-soeasy, over-plucked look. Sometimes, a few seconds of well-intentioned, zealous tweezing can lead to a few agonising months of re-growth. It’s important to get to know your face shape - the lines and angles, before identifying where your eyebrows should ideally start, peak, and end. The peak, or the middle, is the highest point of your natural arch, which should sit parallel to the outside corner of your iris - make sure you line it up with a straight object, then use the object to measure diagonally from your nostril to the outside corner of your eye and continue the line up to what should ideally be the end point of your eyebrows. Wax, tweeze and snip any strays and finish off with a fast acting response cream to sooth the area. Youngblood Mineral Cosmetic’s Brow Artiste Kits are the chic handy kit equipped with all the tools you need to create perfectly groomed arches between waxes. The kits include a set of tweezers, two shades of colours to suit your brows, a lightly tinted wax and a dual-ended brush. If this is all too much, enlist the help of one of Ella Bache’s brow shaping specialists for just $55 for a full brow consultation, lash and brow tint, browshape and Youngblood mini makeover to determine the best possible shape to suit your face.

COUPLE DOUBLE-UP AS PORTSIDE WELCOMES MORE REPEAT BUYERS Portside Wharf residents-turned-savvy-investors have snapped up more than one apartment in Hamilton’s sophisticated riverfront precinct. With four complete residential buildings and two more under construction - Pinnacle and Link - Portside Wharf sold more than $83 million in apartments and penthouses in 2013 with more than $3 million sold to repeat purchasers.
“Once Pinnacle is complete in early 2015, we’ll move in and keep our Promenade apartment as an investment.” “We recognise that properties like this are limited and wanted to make the most of this opportunity while it lasted.”
Mrs Stephens AT said she and her husband looked into apartment FINAL THREE BEDROOM APARTMENTS PINNACLE living after the maintenance on their home became difficult. RELEASED TO THE MARKET “We were reluctant to lose our living spaces but our Portside One of Portside Wharf’s multi-property owners is Paul and Ellen
Stephens who have purchased a second apartment after just three months of living at Brookfield Residential Properties’ mixed use retail and residential development.
Wharf apartment is open plan with plenty of storage and we basically have a playground on our doorstep filled with restaurants, shopping and entertainment options,” she said.
The Stephens purchased their home in the completed Promenade building in August last year after they decided to downsize from their family home at The Gap.
“The level of amenity is second to none and now that we’ve become accustomed to the luxury lifestyle, we don’t know how we lived without everything at our fingertips.”
The couple have more recently purchased a two bedroom, river view apartment off-the-plan at the latest residential stage, Pinnacle at Portside Wharf.
“We also love the sense of community. We have made friends with many of the retailers and other residents so there is a real social side to living at Portside.”
“We fell in love with Portside Wharf immediately,” said Mrs Stephens.
“While we absolutely love living in Promenade, we are excited about the move to Pinnacle which will give us access to even more luxuries like a rooftop pool, gym and entertainment area.”
“We came across Portside while we were looking at an apartment in a different development in Hamilton and stopped in for lunch. We loved the precinct, visited the sales office and within three months, had sold our family home and moved into our river facing, two bedroom apartment in Promenade.”
The couple are looking forward to moving into Pinnacle when construction is complete in early 2015.
“Another three months on, we’ve purchased in the new Pinnacle building which will sit right on the river.“
