The end of winter is finally upon us and I’m excited for springtime to give us warmer weather, frillier dresses and more time outdoors. As per usual I’ve been testing a broad range of products this month, from one of the most ergonomic office chairs on the market to a pair of ballet flats that feel like you’re walking on a cloud, and I’m proud to present the top hits for the month of August. If you haven’t yet booked into Franca — a brasserie in Potts Point — don’t wait for another month to go by.
I had the most delicious steak of my life there, coupled with a side of oysters and “French onion” potato pavé. Know the news with the 7NEWS app: Download today August also heralded the drop of Glossier at MECCA , a pair of silky trousers from Viktoria and Woods going viral and the beginning of my love affair with Dometic’s brand new cooler bag backpack. Whether you’re looking for upcoming birthday (or Father’s Day) gifts, or you’re just in the mood to see some hot favourites that have just hit the shelves, allow my list to be your guiding path.
It might seem like an eyebrow-raising first choice — an office chair? First out of the gate? — but this particular option from Officeworks, which is available in five different colourways, is un real. I wasn’t being particularly ergonomic with my previous chair which was probably more suited around a dining table than in an office but my back has been screaming at me to make a change for quite some time no.
