Shop 'Til You Drop!

I just wanted to share some of the things I bought in Melbourne, namely stationery, books, and jewellery.

I might make this a regular feature, as I love shopping for pretty things!

Have a Happy Saturday!

Victoria St Markets and Madame Pompadour

The Victoria St Markets in Melbourne were HUGE, let me tell you, and I bought some great shoes from a man who had worked there for 41 years! I loved these red shoes so much, (they were so comfy and cute!)I went back, just before we caught the plane home, to buy a black pair the same!

Also, at the Markets, it was so chilly that I had to buy a grey scarf and slouch hat to keep me toasty.

Here I am wearing them, and my new red jacket from a shop in Docklands.

My favourite shop of all in Melbourne was at the markets, in one of the buildings along the side - 
Madame Pompadour! 
Appealing to the part of me that adores pinks, reds and florals, 
I could have happily bought every item in this shop! Teapots, roses and quilts, oh my!

As it was, I bought pyjamas, a skirt, rings, and a greeting card, but with more time and luggage space I could have really gone crazy!

Love, love, adore!

Pretty Shops - Chadstone

We went to a lot of shops in Melbourne. A lot. The city, the Victoria St Markets, Chadstone, DFO, Docklands, and Highpoint. One of the best things about those shops was all the pretty shop displays. 

So I thought I'd share them with you!

These first shops are all from Chadstone Shopping Centre - the biggest shopping centre in the southern hemisphere! 520 shops took us 6 hours to go through!

And there were some gorgeous window displays in The Block Arcade in the city centre, but, because there was no natural light, this was the only display I captured that wasn't blurry:

If you get the chance, go visit both of these shopping venues. You will find even more eye candy!
