wearing: vintage leather leopard print top - garage sale, bag and skirt (seen before) and zu wedges - markets.

I must say I'm almost proud of my saving abilities lately. Sometimes holding back and waiting pays off!

I went shopping at king street in newtown on Saturday and also visited the newtown markets. I bought these wedges off a couple girls selling their wardrobes for needed cash and the girl said she only ever got to wear them once. Poor her but lucky me! Glad i didn't buy those lolo wedges for $150 cause i got these booties for $10!

Whilst there i met fellow blogger and vintage collector Brooke from re:new and bought this cute cropped velvet top (below). Can't wait to wear it under sleeveless dresses in winter.

I almost gave in at 'Cream on King', all their vintage dresses are so lovely, but i decided to make my own similar dress from a vintage dress I've been meaning to hem.
I wore this leather top i got from a garage sale. Its a little tight for me on the breastle area so I'm thinking of adding it to the store sometime soon.

Also like to say a BIG 'Thank you' to all my fans and followers (new&old) and those who've been leaving such nice comments lately =)

    would you believe i was in newtown on saturday for a Vanguarde gig and actually drove past the markets? small world. i didn't stop because i figured it would be out of my price range- i stand corrected!!

    Fabulous shoes and even more fabulous since you got it for a lot less. Great things happen to those who wait.

    I love your outfit. xoxo

    Um that leopard top is TO DIE FOR. Also, I loved how you said "breastle".

    I also can't believe what a score those boots are. Lucky lucky lucky find! I'm tempted to pay the full shebang for those though... we're seriously lacking in the wedged shoe area in Australia right now.

    ooo I love the shoes!! Score for $10, hopefully i come across someone selling their clothes for some extra cash! have you got into the girl with the dragon tattoo... I layed in bed reading it yesterday for 4 hours until I finished cause I just couldn't put it down. such a fantastic yet disturbing book. hope the movie is nearly as good!

    haha your comments always make me laugh, emma! If only we could invent dumpling rings, it would be amazing! and you know what, i actually really like the name 'dumpling' for the neacklace, seriously! it's genius and it just sticks :)

    oh glad you like GPP. it's so hard trying to find vintage jewellry, i'd been in a drought for a whole month! but i found all of these at my a random opshop i found up the coast, you should come up here one time, i think you would love.
