A Fashion Night







Last week we had our in store fashion parade showcasing this seasons winter fashions at Lily-G. Before the rooms filled with people we were able to take a few shots of guests arriving, friends socializing and lots of fun and laughter. The gorgeous models from Vivien's Model Management showed off our winter fashion beautifully with most of the pieces selling out on the night! It was such a great night and loads of fun and I hope to share lots more photos through the week.
Great food from "In a pickle' our local favorite cafe provided us great food and wonderful service!


Friends and customers gathered together for a night of fashion and shopping, the night was photographed by Quest Newspapers and all social shots will be featured in our local paper this week.



Michelle and Sandy enjoying the fashion parade and catching up!



My gorgeous friends Claudine, Shannon, Mel and Sharon - they looked picture perfect on my antique sofa!
Last week my brother Mike spent the entire week analyzing my business, going through my systems and basically organising my entire business. I'm a decorator, love buying gorgeous pieces, styling, merchandising and selling but shocking at the paper work, I hate that part! But believe it or not I am now proud to say that I'm the Queen of Systems and goals!
All thanks to my brother who is always my greatest supporter, I must say he really enjoyed the fashion parade too : )

A successful business means great staff and over the years I have had such wonderful girls. Lauren who has been with me for years has always shown me loyalty and friendship. She is studying interior sesign but is also a qualified decorator and florist and is hugely talented and will have a great future. I'm just enjoying having her at Lily-G until she is famous!
Jo was one of my best customers and now one of my amazing sales girl and friend. We can talk for hours on decorating and hopefully oneday she will let me blog about her gorgeous home on the Gold Coast decorated in her favorite black and white theme. I have had a sneak peak and its gorgeous! She is also our Lily-G 'Social Queen' and a beautiful motivated person inside and out.
