She wears the pants...

We absolutely adore pants at Miss Mouse....mens style pants....tight pants....pants slung on the hip....black pants....bright pants....cropped pants....loose pants....pants that make your butt look small....pants that make your legs look tall....you get the point...

Olive mens style pants from Secret Squirrel with the most beautiful shimmer through the fabric...

Sexy silk jodphurs from Morrison...

Cropped silk pants from Morrison...

Fabulous cargo pants from Lucette...

Beautiful draped tuxedo pants from Laurence Pasquier with leather trim...

Relaxed fit slouch pants from Laurence Pasquier with zip and knot cuff...

Lovely Gemma Degara high waist black silk pants with crinkle hem...

Pants can be such a difficult thing to find...they need to flattering but they also need to be a little bit different...problem solved!

Getaway + Miss Mouse = 15 minutes of fame!

A big thanks to the Getaway team for coming in yesterday to film our little shop! They were doing a feature on Woolloongabba as an up and coming area and phoned us on Wednesday to see if we'd like to be a part of it....hmmmm.....I think YES!

Dee chatting to the lovely presenter Kelly...

The beautiful team...

Why are cameramen always so cheeky?

Aaron and Chris couldn't resist!

We had an absolute blast....not sure how Dee felt about taping a microphone to her boobs!

We'll keep you posted as to when the episode goes to air

We want to do the Can-Can in Princess Tam Tam!

There is something very sexy when a tiny glimpse of your bra peeks out from underneath your dress...but not just any old thing! Leave it to the French to do it!

Gorgeous print on a very subtle black leopard background...

Beautiful silk cotton nude spot ruffle g-string and bra...

So sweet slips which look amazing as a little dress with a pair of ballet flats...available in Lavender, black and vintage rose...

Nude silk cotton spot ruffle slip....

Show me your knickers!

Knit one purl one...

We do adore beautiful hand made things at Miss Mouse and we love showcasing local artists....especially when they are made by Rose and her lovely mum Paula! Each scarf has been hand dyed, hand spun and lovingly knitted using wool, silk, cotton and suede...yummy!

Warm mustards, creams, charcoal and mocha...

Greens, purples, blues, orange intertwined with peach suede...we do live in Queensland!

Burnt ochre, mustard tweed and charcoal and cream mohair...

Thank you and good night...

Thank you so much to everyone for coming on Thursday night to the Winter preview showing! We had such a great time and it was fantastic to catch up with everyone at once. Our lovely photographer Dan broke down on Coronation Drive on the way to the event and just made it here in time to snap a few photos at the end of the evening...poor Dan! We gave him a well deserved beer upon arrival...







By the end of the night we went a little nuts!

I took his hand and followed...

My dishes went unwashed today,
I didn't make the bed,
I took his hand and followed
Where his eager footsteps led.

Oh yes, we went adventuring,
My little Boyy and I,
Exploring all the great outdoors
Beneath the Winter sky.

Oh yes...Boyy Bags have arrived!

This is usually the look I reserve for shoes... definitely a new love affair!

The super soft "Slash" bag in Classique and Python

The "Wally" wallet available in black, gibralter, sorbet and emerald with python/lizard contrast

The "Lucus" bag in water snake

The "Clyde" in pop red

The "Lenny" in gibralter

The "Clyde" in black

The "Lenny" in yellow bananas

All of the Boyy Bags can be worn a couple of different ways with the straps being removable.

These bags really do need to be seen in person as photos really can't show the detail. Most of the hardware has little poems or quotations on them!

Winter Lovelies and Mulled Wine!


Hi Everyone,

Just a little reminder about our Winter Preview night this Thursday, it will be so much fun! We look forward to seeing all of our beautiful customers and some of the lovely new ladies we have met over the last couple of weeks. We have been busily unpacking all of the new pieces for Thursday night and we can't wait for you to see them!

The frost that bites my nose and the turning blue of toes,

The rose, she snows she spills,

lost love and winter chills.


Miss Mouse invites you to a Winter preview...

Thursday 22nd April

5pm-8pm

We will be introducing some beautiful new labels to the store including Gemma Degara from Spain, Boyy bags from New York, In God We Trust jewellery, Lost Not Lonely shoes, and so many more...

Please join us for some mulled winter wine, home made leek and gruyere tarts, warm melt in your mouth apple crumble and a first peek at all the new Winter lovlies...

Dee, Rose & Taylor

180 degrees of separation..

We are very excited! Let's just say when Gemma Degara arrived we did a little happy dance! This is a girl who knows how to cut a piece of fabric and turn it into something wonderful. Her "180 degree" garments which can be worn back to front allow you to interpret the same garment in different ways...

The amazing cream silk trench dress which can be worn twisted and buttoned as shown or left loose as a jacket...
The open back detail is stunning...

The so soft " insect" tail tee...

Beautiful marble effect silk crushed tail blouse in salmon...

Sleeveless trench dress in steel blue silk...can also be worn open and loose...

Open back detail...

The double dress in cream silk has two dresses in one and can be worn twisted together as shown or worn over a contrasting colour...

Even when she does bodycon she manages to twist and drape the fabric over those areas we prefer untouched by jersey!

Marble effect cross over bodysuit...

The layered silk shirtdress is unbelievably comfy and easy to wear...

Is there anything the Spanish can't do!

L.A Confidential

You can always count on L.A labels to deliver beautifully soft and perfectly cut tees and basics...new pieces from Gypsy and Fluxus.

We've discovered this rusty coloured tie dye tank from Gypsy goes with everything..

Grey jersey tank with silk tie dye back..

The perfect grey marle sloppy joe from Fluxus...

Bell sleeve grey sheer top from Fluxus...no one does sheer better than Fluxus!

Burn out tee in Charcoal, also available in mulberry...The best cut tee in the world!

Fluxus is definitely one of those labels that fills all of the gaps in your wardrobe...we have become such fans of the label because the cuts are perfect and the fabrics are amazing...so beautiful to wear. Sometimes it really is the little things that make you happy.
