Inspiration from our trip to Melbourne - Still looking at every photo from different angles and see new colours and arrangements. Feeling somewhat refreshed mentally. Hope you do too...

a spot over here

One Saturday morning, when we couldn't do what we normally do due to no gas = no showers or cooking, we decided to have a coffee and breakfast at a little spot we had eyed off less than 5 mins from home. Campos coffee and enthusiastic baristas meant our main priority was covered... however the atmosphere here was what had me enthralled!

Quirky, eclectic, random, this place had it all. Too much? Hard to say, when you are so busy trying not to miss something gorgeous or delightful in every nook, do you think you would really care? Being vintage obsessed, I was just happy to be sitting in an old cool chair (albeit we sat at a kids table for max so was a little squashy hehe our choice!) with a funky 70's coffee table surrounded by lamps and lighting from an era ago, watching my son discover typewriters, deer heads, forgotten children's trikes bikes cars and toys!

 

 

 

Baby-cino face :-P

It's serious business people.

Sunny Day

Good day to you! It is a gorgeous day here on the Mornington Peninsula. The kind that makes you wish it would stay like this forever. We went for an afternoon jaunt down to Mornington this afternoon and I wore some of my latest Op shop finds so thought I'd share a few snaps.

Scored these Veronica Maine pants at a great Salvo's store.
I love Veronica Maine and in addition they have useless zips on the sides, of which I'm rather fond.
I found the zig-zaggy wedges in the same shop as well as a 70's maxi skirt which I will show you all
once I get it hemmed.

The top is vintage Witchery which I think I bought for the ludicrous sum of $2 a few years ago. Head scarf and bracelets are thrifted also.

Cheesy grins with my fave guy.

Also, here is a friendly shark.

Gypsy Dreams

 Happy Sunday good people! Its finally Autumn here in Adelaide! Yay for long sleeves, comforting cups of tea and blankets at night! 

I know I hardly ever share outfit photos anymore. Truth is I rarely look blog worthy and have lost my Vintage mo-jo somewhat. My line of work strictly requires dark plain clothes and for the rest of the time comfort inevitably trumps style. Recently though I bought this very lovely Vintage skirt which I thought was worth sharing.

The top is a Sportsgirl/Op shop find as was the necklace-come-belt. Bracelets are from Witchery and my gorgeous earrings were handmade in Portugal and were a gift from my dear mum.

For those of you who don't know yet, we will be moving to Melbourne in 9 weeks!! Very exciting stuff. But also stressful. Who else hates moving? Stupid question. EVERYBODY hates moving.

This is what my house looks like nowadays...

I do hate the moving process but I LOVE un-packing. Can't wait to decorate a new home! 

We have a lot of loose ends to tie up, including making changes and improvements to some paintings in the hope of selling them before we go. I'm making huge discounts on some of my paintings including these two once they're done. If you're interested in having a snoop you can see the rest here.

Also slowly wading through my clothing and will be selling some Vintage pieces here.

Amongst all the mayhem and mess there is always some beauty and peace to be found...

Lisianthus from my man and a much appreciated letter from B have kept my sane.

On that note, I'm off to have another cup of tea. Coz I can.
