Spending Spree

I saved my little heart out so I could buy whatever I fancied whilst in Melbourne this last week, and I think I did good, my top pricey purchase was a $39 op-shop blouse, so I was still thrifty so there is no post-shopping guilt. Marvellous.

Matryoshka measuring cups. Purchased for display
means mainly, have seen them in NZ, but found some
cheap so I went for it!
Treat bags from Poppies for Grace. Too cute not to buy.
Ikea I love you.
Sets of cookie cutters & got some extras as gifts.
People should protest march for Ikea in Auckland.
Also from Ikea, indoor/outdoor lights.
Gah were so cheap, I'm serious about that protest.
For when I was resting my poor walking feet.
Hit the sales, nothing like a bit of mainstream Sportgirl purchasing.
Needed both, in a want more than need way.
Had spend 10mins earlier looking at Princess Tina fox pouch,
so at about 1/3 of the price combined, this wallet
and keyring just made more sense.
Plastic fantastic set of trays and cups. 6 each!
Loved the colour, had to have even though were an annoying
shape/size to get home. From Chapel St Bazaar, could have spent
the day in that one shop - fabric and trims galore, shame people
know vintage fabric is so coveted, too pricey for this girl.

Lovely op-shop blouse (could do with an iron) from new
place (couple of wks old) off alley on Centre Place.
Lotsa cute stuff.
Cute beanie/beret, cause I have an addiction.
& I finally got that Kikki K bag!

+ purchased a many cupcakes (cutest & loveliest place I found was Little Cupcakes on Degraves St), macarons from a handful of places, multiple snacks on cones of fries from Lord of the Fries and a cute afternoon tea High-Tea style at the NGV & we also went to Phillip Island to watch the Penguin Parade.
Have photos, will track them down, mainly graffiti and skylines though, I am a predictable tourist.
