We offer a simple love it or return it guarantee on all full priced items within 30 days of your order being placed. If for whatever reason you don't LOVE it, just send it back to us for a refund, store credit or exchange. Please contact us first and ensure the items/s are back in the post to us within the 30 day period.

Make your mama proud! Please send your items back to us carefully folded and with all buttons done up again, the way you received your piece. Please do not just 'shove' the item into a bag, as it will be returned to us severely creased. We are a small business and if your item needs ironing or other attention to be able to resell it, we will charge a $10.00 fee (taken from your refund or credit voucher). This takes up our precious time, and we have no problem charging this fee from now on.

* We offer credit notes only on sale items. Items tagged 'Final Sale' cannot be returned unless faulty.

Full Priced Items

  • If your piece is faulty, we will either replace it asap or offer a refund (your choice). We will pay all postage.
  • If your garment does not fit you we will replace or refund, however we ask that you pay the postage. Item must be returned within 30 days of placing the order, and in original condition, or a $10 fee will be applied.
  • If you simply do not like your item, that is fine of course. We ask that you pay the return postage and that the item be returned within 30 days of placing the order. The item/s must be in original condition, or a $10 fee will be applied.
  • We are not responsible for Australia Post or affiliated International postal agencies losing or delaying parcels, or theft or damage. All items are sent with tracking ID, but please advise us if you wish to have your parcel insured. This will be at extra cost to you.
  • We are not responsible for incorrect address advice. If your parcel is returned to us you will need to pay postage again.
  • If the colour of your item is different to what you thought it would be, an exchange is possible however we ask that you pay postage. We are not responsible for variances in computer screens or perception. Even though some colours may have the same colour label (name), they may be slightly different shades of the colour.
  • Worn or damaged items will not be exchanged or refunded. This includes perfume scented clothing - we consider this as 'worn' and it will not be accepted as a return. You will receive a store credit voucher only, and less $10.00 for damage.
  • Due to hygiene standards, we are unable to accept returns on earrings.
  • Any exchange / return must be completed within 30 days of placing the order.
  • If, on the rare occasion that your item is out of stock, you will be offered an alternative, refund or raincheck.
  • If you send an item back to us, and the returned item is severely creased, smelling of perfume or otherwise needing attention to be able to resell, we charge a $10.00 restocking fee taken from your refund or store credit.
  • If a return is placed under fraudulent conditions and takes us an unusually longer time to complete than usual, we charge a pro rata fee of $100 per hour. This will be taken from your refund or credit note. Example: you fraudulently claim the piece doesn't match the size guide and we spend half an hour measuring all the others as a replacement. (Please note - we have only had to do this once in 15 years.)

Sale Items

  • We do not offer refunds or exchanges on sale items, only store credit vouchers (unless the item is faulty). * Faulty does not include perceived colour differences, or sizing issues.
  • If you exchanged your item for a full priced item (or received store credit and then purchased a full priced item), and would like a refund on the full priced item, you will receive a refund on the cash paid only. The remainder of the total (from the sale item/s) will be a store credit voucher only.

Final Sale Items

  • We do not offer any returns on items marked 'Final Sale' unless the item is faulty. (* Faulty does not include perceived colour differences, or sizing issues. Please email us immediately, and with a picture of the problem.)
