004. Easter is almost here!

Now if you are like me you absolutely lovveeee Easter and of course the only reason you secretly like it is because of all the CHOCOLATE! Yum. If you haven't noticed I've changed my blog background to a lovely Easter theme of eggs. Unfortunately I haven't got much fashion news for you today (sad face), but I have got something! Yay. Yesterday international clothing line Zara hit our shores with the first ever Australian store opening in Sydney. Now, you must be thinking 'Awww why Sydney? Melbourne is way better' but hopefully in time we will get our very own Zara store right here in Melbourne. The store is a three-level giant, 1830m squared concept store in the $1.2B world-class retail precinct of Westfield Sydney! 
So I leave you with a photo of the new store:

 

Happy Easter!

003. What a Bargain!

Today I'm writing about getting great buys for less than $20.00.
Places like Big W, Kmart and Target are excellent places to shop for bargains. If you are anything like me you love your fashion, but don't always have enough money in the bank to buy that lovely dress in Myer, so with that this blog post is aimed to get you great things that won't break the bank. When shopping for bargains you don't want to get crap quality items, so you have to be careful when choosing because even though it only costs $10.00 doesn't mean it will last you years, it might only be a couple of months till it breaks.

So here are some of the things I've bought and the shops I bought them from:

Floral Canvas Shoes
Kmart
$5.00
I absolutely love this shoes, they're soooo comfy. I could live in them. 
 Double ended eyeliner
Sportsgirl
On sale for $4.95
Great colours for the season.

 Mid-Drift top with lace shoulders
Cotton On
$10.00
Great top, cute pattern and sits just right. Looks great with high waisted shorts.
 Black peep-toe flats
Rubi shoes (not sure if they are there any more. Sorry)
$10.00 but %50 off so I payed only $5.00
Great for any dress and super comfy.

 Nail rock, Furry Cheetah
Sportsgirl
On sale for $9.95
One word. Crap. They took me about an hour to put on and I only did one hand, then they basically peeled them selves off. Waste of money.
Comment if you have bought these before and have a different opinion.


I hope you got inspired.

002. Op Shops

This is officially my first blog post, so I thought i would enlighten you on ONE of my favorite places to shop in Melbourne, drum roll please... Op Shops! Yay! 
Op Shops are great for bargains and vintage clothing. When shopping in an Op Shop always look for new trends that have a real vintage feel. 
Styles that are in right now that you may, depending on your luck, find in Op Shops are: Fur vests, Printed leggings, Festival boots, High waisted skirts, etc.
Some of my fortunate finds:

Fur Vest

Tapestry Bag

 And where I found these heavenly items is a hidden gem:

Address- 1226 Glen Huntly Rd, Glen Huntly, VIC, 3163

I suggest you go and check out this beauty.
