Costliest retail strip in Australia..

South Yarra's Chapel Street has been outed as the most expensive retail strip in the country. A report by realestate groups found shopkeepers pay an average of $1,400-$1,500 a square metre per site. The rate is in stark contrast with that of surrounding areas, with Toorak Rd leasees paying 50 per cent less . Burke Road, Camberwell follows closely behind with rents between $800-$1,200 per square metre.

Belle de Jour

I have been a fan of Kate Winslet since her Titanic days. Here she poses for Vanity Fair magazine, taken in Los Angeles. She looks amazing!!

In the magazine she talks about the inability to be viewed as just another mum at school. She says "the mothers at school will read this article, and I know when I walk into the classroom in the morning , at some point I'll be checked out...and some of them will even say to me, O.K...what's the secret with the skin?"

I say thank god for make up and possibly a little bit of photo shop...not that I don't give her any credit. Well done Kate...you look beautiful!!

High School Musical 3 Mania!!

The High School Musical 3 Premiere was on in Melbourne on Wednesday 12th November at the Jam Factory in South Yarra. There was no way of getting out of attending, as my 7 year old daughter & 9 year old niece had heard about the Live appearance of the HSM3 cast earlier in the week.

Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens & Ashley Tisdale appeared at the red carpet event to promote their new movie. There were around 3,000 screaming fans ...

We waited approximately 2 hours in sweltering heat for the cast to arrive. We were standing just behind the media, so the girls had a great view... mind you my daughter was on my shoulders and my niece on her mums.

Wondering if any other crazy mums took their kids out to the premiere?

The movie comes out in cinemas next month on 4 December. You can book your tickets online at http://villagecinemas.com.au/Movies/High-School-Musical-3.htm
