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.

To make a home out of a rented house

Hello everybody! Wow, its been a long time since I've posted here!
Our move was successful, we are now living on the very lovely Mornington peninsula in Victoria. 
We are 5 minutes from the beach, a short drive to scenic wine regions with rolling green hills and a 45 minute drive to Melbourne city. Its pretty good!
I'd like to show you a few snippets of our new home.





Green isn't the first colour I would choose for our living area but I'm quite pleased with how well our things fit in here. It's a lovely little space with nice tallish ceilings and an abundance of sunshine.



 Our previous kitchen was dark, small and dingy so it is an absolute dream to have a nice big kitchen now with lots of cupboard and bench space!


We are mostly unpacked but I am yet to set up the spare bedroom/painting room.There is also a rather ugly red wall in the bedroom that I am hoping to paint soon. Will keep you posted :)
Love ~E xo
