A beautiful pair of suede black flats - total necessity. The lady who looked after me was lovely and totally made me feel better about my splurge by admitting that she had bought the same pair in leopard earlier in the day.

The women's section has all the usuals; Roxy, Billabong, Ripcurl etc. you can find some pretty beach dresses and summery tops. They also do a good range of summer hats and sarongs. There is a good selection of guys boardies, it's good for those forgetful fellas who didn't pack there's for the beach (been there a few times).
