Also, given their late Friday night opening hours, it's conceivable that you could pop in here to pick up some emergency fashions in the frustrating event that you are knocked back for being "too casual mate". I've often looked here for jeans because they really do have some of the best brands in stock -- labels like Wrangler, Lee, G-Start Raw Denim and Neuw. The salesperson was quite good at suggesting options that I might like based on my input and describing the more intricate nuances of each design. On a recent visit I noted that they've done a bit of a reshuffle to the layout of the place, creating more room and eliminating some of the clutter. I also really dig the music here -- it really gets me dancing in the change room!

I don't think the accessories here are of really high quality, but for random day-to-day use, it is worth buying up here. As trends change fast these days, so does the merchandise in this store. This is a good thing! They don't necessarily just get rid of the older stock, it will just fizzle and then there's a sale and then... BOOM! New hot smack bang in the front and centre of the store. Luring all who dare to get tempted, through its doors. I am more than happy for this store to tempt me. They have such a great range of dress-up accessories and best of all, they are cheap. Not cheap in an nasty way, far from it. The jewellery and bags sold here are of the latest trends and fashion, just done at wonderfully welcoming prices. Easy on the wallet and easy on the eye! I would describe this store a bit like a Topshop. It attracts a market of trendy, young and hip peeps. What I would hate to see happen is this store turn into a Diva. Ick. But I doubt that will happen. The store layout is great and ambience created by the dim lighting and the darker paint shades really sets it apart from the Diva's and other tacky accessories store.

I love following the…read morelatest trends but i find most stores to be over priced and cheap quality But with Colette Accessories i find it to be the complete opposite. They have great prices and great quality stuff. Out of all the times i have been here i dont think i have ever walked out empty handed. I only just the other day walked out with a fantastac large handbag and nice rope chain bracelet and only paid $35 all up. You tell me where you can go with a great bargain like that. Not only that but the girls that work there i find always to be really friendly and welcoming and never pushy. They are happy to help but if you just want to look on your own they let you be I love that in a store. I will continue going here. I love this store.

X-Heart is yet another Japanese import boutique shop in Elizabeth Arcade. And it is not the only…read morestore hear to have 'heart' in its name and be decorated with pink girly things. I kind of love this store though just because of its eccentricity in the items it does bring over. They stock everything from dresses to shoes and more but be warned that most of them are made for petite girls and come in mainly small sizes. There are some funky clothes here but I really love this place for its accessories. X-Heart stock a range of cosmetic contacts that are to die for. They are called Cosmeeyes Japanese Hyper Eye series that are like contacts on steroids. They are massively bigger than your average pupil and iris combined, making you look somewhat like an anime character when you wear them. And they come is a range of really cool colours. It is definitely worth wandering into X-Heart just to have a look at the cool and unique items they sell.

I heart X-Heart! For two very good reasons…read more.. The first and most important reason I love this store, is the clothes they stock perfectly fit my petite frame. HOORAY! It's challenging, particularly with dresses (especially maxi dresses!!), to find some that just fit right and for this reason, I'm grateful to find a boutique like this. The second reason I like this store, is they sell some really cute outfits. Their dresses, tops and skirts are very pretty, but extremely girly. That being said, I wouldn't come here to completely fill a wardrobe, otherwise I'd end up resembling a Japanese pop star all blinged up. But if you buy from here with moderation, you should be fine. This boutique sells items at moderate prices. For dresses and shoes it usually ranges from $50-$100, but other simple items, like tops and skirts are cheaper. They have a gorgeous collection of unique accessories which are also reasonably priced. So, if you are petite, girly and don't want to overspend, this little boutique would be the perfect place to shop!

I would strongly advise shopping in store rather then online. Their clothes rarely look the same as they appear on the internet and the quality is frequently far less then that of which it appears online.

The clothes on offer really are cute and well... sweet. There are lots of little dresses, the kind that make a girl look almost doll like in appearance. Most of what is on offer here is a little small (they mainly sell sizes for petite girls) and with hemlines that are too high for my personal taste. However, I can see how these sorts of clothes would look great on young teenage girls going for the innocent and cute factor. The prices are reasonable for what you are getting and the clothes really are just sweet. Snuggled in amongst many uber feminine fashion boutiques, Sweet does tend to just blend with the rest of them. I will say that the store layout is simplistic yet effective and the staff are friendly and kind. It is worth going and checking out all the stores in Elizabeth arcade, Sweet being one of many good ones for young female fashion.

Outwardly this store appears to be some sort of bizarro version of General Pants Co.

I found the shop to contain an odd assortment of clothing. The men's stuff was mainly casual; lots of t-shirts and jeans, while most of the women's clothes were more formal, a lot of dresses and tops ideal for nights out at a cocktail bar. The store claims to specialise in street wear which I'm not sure I agree with. Despite the confusion and the mish mosh of dress standards, they had great stuff.

They also occasionally sell some Sass & Bide. I was drawn in by the really distinctive skirts and dresses. You pretty much have your pick of styles here; if you need festival fashions, just ask to see their playsuits and shorts; if you want a cute weekend outfit, take your pick of the patterned dresses. Or go more casual and choose a cami with one of their remarkable jewellery pieces. Side Street is another great stop on a Paddington shopping day.
