Seriously, do we need to share a disclaimer? Because we're about to get mushy.
Ok let's get it out there ... We just LOVE our store.
We love the space, we love our customers (that's you), our incredible collections, hearing stories, sharing stories ... and all the creativity that harnesses the whole Dwell experience.
We love that Dwell Store is a space to do life together.
This week, we thought we'd CONNECT in with the Dwell team and ask our Gift Stylists what their favourite experiences have been in store this season ... and of course what it means to them to #DwellWell in Winter.
GEORGIA
"If I had to choose I'd definately say Aesop is my favourite in store collection. I've had problems with my skin in the past and find it's a really beautiful and effective product. Aside from their skincare focus, I love the design side of their bottles and concept store interiors. We've also just completed our training on the new In Two Minds collection. I'm really excited for it to arrive. It has some really interesting ingredients in comparision to the rest of the collection and will be perfect for combination skin."
How do you #DwellWell in Winter?
"I'm studying a Bachelor of Economics and Property Development so I've been reading excessively. My favourite product in the Aesop collection is the Blue Chamomile Facial Hydration mask. My treat is to put that on at night and tuck in to my new In Bed Duvet cover."
JANELLE
"Slip has become a long-term favourite of mine and is now a permanent part of my beauty regime. I use the pillowcases every night and will never go back to cotton! Each pillowcase is made from the highest grade silk, even the eye masks are filled with silk - so luxurious. Not only is it great for your skin but it is amazing for getting an extra day out of your hairstyles. I love recommending something tried and true as gifts, especially for that special someone who wouldn't normally treat themselves!"
How do you #DwellWell in Winter?
"Cold Winter weather is the perfect excuse to rug up, brew some tea and get lost in a good book - and this is my favourite way to unwind and recharge. This Winter I also made an investment in a new Kawai piano and have been reconnecting with a fond passion of mine. Looking after your mind is so important now more than ever and setting time aside for myself is just one of the ways I like to #DwellWell."
EMMA
"Being the buyer for Dwell, my head is always a season or two in advance. The Spring & Summer collections are looking exceptional and we can't wait to receive the new edit of gifting and lifestyle goodies in store. S'well bottles are a particular favourite of mine - I won't leave home without one and keep spares at the store, just in case. I've even incorporated the stunning Swarovski limited edition bottle into my home décor and given it it's own place on my bedside table. And... I've just has a sneak peek at the Spring / Summer collection... it's amazing!"
How do I #DwellWell in Winter?
"I seem to be totally nesting this Winter ... doing big cupboard clean outs, wardrobe edits, etc. And I've got my creative on ... keep me away from Spotlight - there's so much inspiration and not nearly enough time to get the sewing machine out!"
MARY
"Elk the Label has been incredibly well received in store this season. I'm so glad because it's a beautiful collection with so much integrity. I especially enjoy the hand bag designs - the coloured leathers are gorgeous and such good quality. The travel collection has also been amazing this Winter. I've been really noticing how many people are heading off shore this season. I love hearing stories of where people are adventuring to."
How do you #DwellWell in Winter?
"Winter does not mean inside to me. Any mornings (or evenings) I'm able, you'll find me taking a super early walk along the Broadwater. The ocean is so glassy, it's incredible. And of course it's nice to warm up afterwards with a home brewed coffee. I've got a little girl so Winter has meant extra snuggles in bed and on the couch. Priceless!"
SARAH
"I know the whole point of the Frank Green cups is to have one and reuse it but seriously, the colours ... Can I have two? Ha. The new stainless steel Frank Green collection has been flying this season. The new thermal feature is a must (especially for Winter). Grabbing my Frank Green coffee cup wraps up my everyday morning routine. I take it to work, for a walk, I brew tea and drink it before my yoga classes, the list goes on. Oh, and the discount I get at cafes for using a reusable cup is the cherry on top!"
How do I #DwellWell in Winter?
"Winter can too easily make me unmotivated to get to the gym, so I decided to sign up to H.I.I.T. (High Intensity Internal Training) group classes. The team there have welcomed and inspired me and I have been getting myself to class every day, even before the sun rises! Anyone that knows me knows that I am not a morning person, so this is a big turn around. Waking up early, staying healthy, staying fit and kicking goals. My summer six pack is coming to a beach near you!"
