Last Thursday night I went to the Forest Lake Instyle Boutique VIP Night. I had been meaning to go to one for a while and after having a pretty crazy week with the girls, I told Jacob I wanted to go and we had to be organized so that I could get there promptly for the 7pm start.
When I got to the boutique I was in love with all the clothes that were on offer. I am loving colour at the moment and have been slowly adding colourful pieces to my wardrobe. There were gorgeous kaftans, capes, maxi dresses and tops that I wished I could have bought had I had enough funds… but I ended up buying three kaftans (one will be a giveaway here soon) and two necklaces.
Instyle Boutique is located at my local shopping centre where I go to get my groceries. It’s only five minutes up the road and I love that I have the option of supporting a local shop when needing some retail therapy or a new outfit. I’m apart of their VIP program which means I get discounts after a few purchases and get emails about sales and invitations to their VIP nights.
It’s important to get to know your local boutique because your purchases support a small business and the boutique staff will help you make great styling choices. You can really build a rapport with the staff and I honestly believe this is what makes a great shopping experience. I have the same relationship with the Store Manager at my nearest Witchery store.
The VIP nights at Instyle Boutique are well worth the visit because there was 20% of all new stock and the shop was stocked with gorgeous, new items. There was bubbly and nibblies on offer, make-up tips, vouchers to try a local hair salon in the centre and each attendee received a special gift.
The brands Instyle Boutique offer include Caroline Morgan, Boho Australia, Ruby Yaya and many more. The accessories are from Adorne which would have to be one of my favourite accessory stores in Brisbane.
Instyle Boutique has stores at Forest Lake, Calamvale, Cannon Hill and the newly opened Garden City. They have a Facebook page which is worth following to keep up with new styles when they are added to their stores.
If you are looking for some summer updates for your wardrobe and you live in Brisbane, you need to head to Instyle Boutique. You will love the clothes and the prices.
Do you have a local boutique that you support when it comes to purchasing clothes?
