The $269 Bluebell dress is made from 100 percent cotton with blue floral embroidery and will have you dreaming of a sunny vacation.

The big discovery of dinosaurs

If you need school holiday activities to keep the kids entertained, check out Cockburn Gateway’s dinosaur-themed Kids Zone, open from 24 September to 9 October.

Kids can unleash their inner archaeologist in the large dig area to find dinosaur bones, dinosaur eggs and meet animatronic creatures from the Cretaceous period, from Velociraptor to Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus Rex.

SIX Musical

Produced by Tony Award-winning musical phenomenon Toby Marlowe and Lucy Moss, SIX will bring the Australian production to the Crown Theater in November.

The captivating performance remixes the stories of the six wives of Britain’s famed Tudor King Henry VIII – Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr – as they transform into pop princesses and sing their rebellious tales.

Tickets are already on sale sixthemusical.com and if its record 15-week run at the Sydney Opera House is anything to go by, the show should be an exciting addition to Perth’s theater scene.

Dare to do it

If you’re a Escape to the Chateau fan like us (if not, you should put the series on your watch list), you’ll be delighted to hear that the inspirational Dick and Angel Strawbridge are coming to Perth for their Dare To Do It Tour.
