I don't manage to get into Perth very often for a bit of shopping, but whenever I do I like to take a wander down King Street. The street has a very European feel with lovely architecture and restored shop fronts. Known locally as the 'West End' or the 'Designer District' this narrow street is home to many High-End stores - beautiful shops full of absolutely gorgeous merchandise.

Well-known names such as Gucci, Prada, Tiffany & Co., Sass and Bide and Wheels and Dollbaby have amazing stores in this street and Chanel is set to open one here in the next few months. Just off King Street, on Hay Street there are other high-end retailers like Burberry, Emporio Armani, Canali, Hugo Boss and Apple.

Follow the Walk of Fame up King Street and you will find such names as Kookai, Bally, Georg Jensen, Zomp, Dilettante, Longchamp and many other designer stores intermingled with friendly cafés.

The merchandise in these shops is stunning and of course expensive, nothing has a price tag, but as the saying goes – 'If you need to ask the price, you can't afford it'.

If you can afford to shop in these very classy stores that's great (and good for you), but if you can't afford to buy Designer labels it is quite acceptable to browse and window shop.

So, if you do find yourself in Perth with a bit of time on your hands, make your way down to King Street and indulge in a little retail therapy with designer style.
