Helgastock2013 Part 4: Who loves ya, baby?


We spent yesterday with our gorgeous friend Catherine and her cute-as-a-button baby Rufus. 



Her house is full of gorgeous vintage stuff. I wanted to steal most of it but she didn't take her eyes off me for a second, 
the crafty wench. 


So went back to The Vegie Bar again for lunch 
and it was just as good the second day in a row.





I wore: 
1960s mod squad frock - Shitty service vintage shop
Coat - Market
Tights, sunnies, shoes - Retail 
Hair flowers - Gift and prize

Helga wore: 
Frock - Gift from Vanessa Squirrel 
Cardigan - Op shopped
Coat - Camberwell Market
Tights and sunnies - Retail
Shoes - Trade me
Hair bow - San Francisco





And now our Dee has joined us, we are off for more fabulous adventures today... if only I can bring myself to get out of my jarmies.

Helgastock2013 Part3: Get Your Filthy Fingers Out Of My Pie


I wore: 
1970s leather trench and dress - Enjoyit Vintage
Boa and sunnies - Op shopped 
Tights and shoes - Retail 

Helga wore: 
Coat - Camberwell Markets
Bag - Gift from G-Star
Shoes - trade me NZ
Tights - Retail
Belt - Op shopped
Hair flower, sunnies, beads and parasol - Borrowed from me
Silver plate necklace - San Francisco
Earrings - Gift from Louise













So today we were shooting these outfit pics in the laneway 
behind our B&B and an older man came into the lane and 
just stood a few metres away and stared...

and stared...

and stared...

And when I said "Please don't stare"

He replied "I only stare because you are so strange"


There was only one obvious reply to that...



Today we loved: 

We had lunch here today. I am a vegetarian coeliac who is allergic to capsaicin (found in capsicum) and I ordered straight off the menu and and the food was really, REALLY good. Like, seriously, so good that we have already planned what we will order when we return for lunch tomorrow and the next day. THAT good.


And for no reason at all this happened: 

The Hit List:
And nobody pissed us off, except for the rude fucker in the lane, but he's very  old and will probably be dead soon, so sucks to be him.

And for your viewing pleasure, 
please see Helga enjoying herself 
and hear me cackling like a banshee:

You're welcome.

Helgastock2013: Part 2: Flankly, my ovaries speak the language of love

This post is super image heavy. You're welcome. 


FRIDAY AM


We were lucky enough to spend a few hours at the 
Fossil Vintage warehouse with beautiful Jim and Nina...








FRIDAY PM

Blogger Dinner


This might be my all time favourite outfit ever in the history of the universe.

Friday night we were joined for dinner by beautiful Carli from Vintage Musings of a Modern Pinup (she was kind enough to bring her big spunk of a husband with her),  stunning Catherine from Audrey Scarlett Vintage and  exquisite Claire from Stitching Purple Blooms



And then, naturally, there was this...


SUNDAY AM

Camberwell Markets...




We made instant best friends with gorgeous Andrea from Enjoyit Vintage and now we love her long time!


Check out the incredible recycled vintage luggage turned into amps and speakers at Melbourne Vintage Audio. And if the blue one is still available, please buy it for me. Thank you.


We both scored some DIVINE frocks 
from Audrey Scarlett Vintage.

SUNDAY PM



MONDAY AM
 






MONDAY PM


This is possibly also my other all time favourite outfit ever.

Places we have loooved so far:

Fossil Vintage
Lost and Found Vintage Market
Vintage Garage
Camberwell Markets

Place from which I purchased some fab frocks but whose customer service left a lot to be desired: I won't name and shame but if you're interested email me and I'll let you know. Great stock, shite service.

Also our accommodation is spectacular. If you're looking for fabulous accommodation in Melbourne email me and I'm more than happy to recommend this gorgeous B&B.
