Remedy
published on 19th October, 2009

Shopping in Perth is not always easy, unless you know where to look.

Perhaps my favourite of all Perth’s secret stores is Remedy. Owners Melanie and Jo trudge from the back streets of Hong Kong to top of the highest towers in New York sniffing out pieces of designer wonder. When they’re not physically travelling, they surf the net to continuously unearth hidden gems.

I’ve been shopping at Remedy since it opened its doors five years ago. My most loved purchases include Carrie Chau purse, which was stolen in Vietnam and, surprisingly, returned in tact. We were obviously meant to be.
Remedy stocks Carrie Chau exclusively in Australia, along with a huge range of Aesop and accessories. A particular favourite is my ‘Love’ jewellery and trailer trash necklace – but it’s not just about me! Remedy works wonders for friends and even kids. The best things in Perth might be hard to find, but Remedy proves that they are worth it.
