I got these wedges yesterday - wore them today and I

them, so comfortable

(although I was a bit paranoid carrying Em downstairs in them as they rock when I walk)

Love that snake headband, GP!

Minky, Witchery and Country Road are prob my most fave shops over here - though they're soooo expensive? I only ever shop at them in the sales. *tightwadsmilie*

I couldn't get over how expensive the clothes were in Australia!! Everything was expensive in general and we found that the people there had such a difference perception to value for money than what we had! My MIL was buying loads of baby clothes for us, and a teeny tiny basic vest from Country Road was something ridiculous like $25. I kept trying to stop her but she was having none of it

Me too

I needed a basic white vest and still had to pay loads more for it than I would have done at home - and it's not even that good quality.

Yep, it's totally crazy. The only cheap place to buy clothes are the chains like Target and Kmart, and they're certainly not "primark cheap".

Sorry for the hijack, as you were!

Love the boat shoes Dita and the dress is gorg Minky (I`m very tempted to get the skirt in the same print). I only popped into NL to change a dress but came out with a completely different one.

The fabric is a bit pants but its lovely and swingy, very 70s suburban house wife on me but I was thinking about wearing it with my old indigo skinny denim jacket & tan peeptoes / wedges and maybe even a navy blazer for work.
