Homewares and Jewellery Boutique Pinky's Is Melbourne's New Pastel Land of Nice Things
Jewellery designer Emily Green and stylist Beckie Littler have teamed up to open Preston's newest addition.
If you're into the feeling you get when two of your favourite singers collaborate on a track — or when Chris Pratt, Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth are all in a movie together — we guarantee you'll be pretty happy about this news. Jewellery designer Emily Green and stylist Beckie Littler have joined their substantial forces to open a store in Preston in Melbourne's north: Pinky's.
Pinky's is a pastel-coloured, light-filled, dreamily large space filled with ceramics, homewares and jewellery, with its array of wares all sandwiched together between bright floral walls. The pink-hued space features greenery and light wood, decor-wise — and it's not just a playground for adult eyes. The store also has a little cubby house especially for children to rollick about in while parents are busy shopping or just having a couple of minutes of peace. With both Emily and Beckie being mums, their knowledge and experience of both retail and motherhood have perhaps given the space just what a mum might need. Well, apart from coffee and a nap.
Products range along the same cute, happy and pastel lines, including brands such as Emily's own line of jewellery, Leah Jackson ceramics, candles by Frankie Gusti, kids wares from Halcyon Nights and arty offerings from Shuturp. There's just as much garb for little ones as there is for bigger customers, meaning that your birthday present solutions will be taken care of across the board — and your "treat yourself" options for you too, of course.
Emily's studio is situated behind the shop, alongside additional studios and a hireable multi-purpose space for workshops, shoots, or if you just want to stay at Pinky's forever and never leave. Given what's on offer, wanting to hang around is a completely understandable response.
Find Pinky's at 28 Gilbert Road, Preston. The store is open 930am–4pm Wednesday to Saturday, and 930am–2pm on Sundays.
