London's hottest new artist Sophie Tea breaks away from her former Instagram sales and launches her very first solo gallery in Manly. Housing a collection of nudes, hearts and abstracts, Sophie doubles the space as a working studio also. Visitors can be lucky enough to watch the trendy artist in action as she divides her time between the Sydney shop and her London studio.

I've never really liked shopping in stores and have always preferred to order things online, avoiding human interaction at all costs, HOWEVER after visiting the Budgy Smuggler store in Manly, its become one of my fave places and also made me like instore shopping way more! My pet hate is persistent staff, but Milly and the team in the store are really welcoming and let you browse, ask questions, try on lots of options (sorry, sometimes too many!) but are not pushy with their customers. They are also really helpful if you need any advice on the style, shape or design to suit each individual. I really enjoy visiting the store every time I go, and I would highly recommend to any one who is considering buying some budgy smugglers or smugglettes to pop in and "try before you buy"! Happy shopping!

I haven't been to Manly at the weekend for some years but always liked it. On a visit today we had time to kill so wandered the market. I was surprised that it has tripled in size and not only that but there was no junk. I am very cynical about the usual crappy market but Manly was actually pretty good. The usual artwork, glass, leather, phone cases, clothes, jewellery and so on. Not too much Australiana but even that was decent souvenir level. Also a couple of enterprising cafes in the street had put tables out in the sun. And the far end from The Corso had a farm stall with fresh vegetables. Most markets are just commercial made in Asia bits and pieces but not here, I am guessing the market operators must have a selection process to exclude all that. I am a local but if you are visiting Sydney and feel like a nice ferry ride down The Harbour you would not be disappointed to come here. I was fairly impressed on today's showing.
