Today Misfits set up shop at the third Fash N Treasure market.
Shine on, you crazy diner waitress.
(It makes perfect sense in my head.)
 |
 |
| That crappy old orange vinyl step stool is one of my most treasured possessions. |
 | |
| I had the pleasure of these babes' company all day... |
That's the gorgeous Sara of 50 Foot Queenie there on the left...
Sara does absolutely incredible burlesque/vintage/pin up lingerie and swimwear -
all hand made and stunningly crafted in uber cute fabrics.
And the beautiful Susie of the Jade Pussycat...
Susie does amazing vintage jewellery and homewares -
I want one of everything!
 |
| I had to snap up this little treasure because I do not have enough faux fur. I won't be able to wear if for another six months but I shall pack it away with my winter woolies, forget all about it and have a lovely surprise next May. I'm looking quite Cruella DeVille! |
 |
| There's so much space at these markets - it's fabulous in the warmer months but freeeeezing in winter! |
One of my favourite customers of the day were two delightful ladies who were shopping for "lovely old things to help trigger happy memories" for the female dementia patients they spend their days nursing.
They said they have days where they dress in 1930s or 1940s and play the music of the day and even have a couple of old magazines to read and the patients always respond and happily chat about their memories.
I was very touched and thankful for the beautiful nurses taking care of the most vulnerable in the community.
 |
| You know there is no way in the world that I was going to pass up a divine HAND MADE leopard print bra, right? LOVELY MAKER/SELLER OF THESE BRAS - PLEASE CONTACT ME SO I CAN LINK - I LOST YOUR CARD! |
 |
| And I already had one of these... so delicate and feminine (very unlike me!). |
 | |
| One of my favourite finds of the day... |
The delightful Miss Eddie, of Pussyfoot Industries, whose tagline is 'Life's too short not to be cute!'.
Miss Eddie was selling some gorgeous accessories, including these earrings (above) and headbands (below).
I picked up a gorgeous snood, which I shall review later in the week.
 |
| Look at the details on these gorgeous headbands! |
 |
| Ladies, this is Brodie. Because you're worth it. I have no shame. You're welcome. |
In the interests of full disclosure: I paid full retail for every item and
was not asked to review or mention any sellers or items.
Oy - would you all hurry up and start offering me free stuff!

COVETING your faux fur purchase, WANT those earrings and you have some treasures in your stall!! [had a close-up look]
Age gracefully? No thanks. If ageing disgracefully means living life to the fullest and going out kicking... then I intend to be as disgraceful as possible.
can youtake my order? you look great ..bitching bangs..ooooh am I dreaming..leopard,cherries and ay I want those cute necklaces.
Gahh!! Silly work!!!! I hate not having a 9-5 job. That dress up idea for dementia paitents is such a good idea! Im sooo suggesting it at work. We usually have old music playing and a lot of our residents comment on my hair and stuff, they would go apeshit for a dress up day!
-Sam
Marta - Hi and welcome!
Helga - the leopard bra is FRICKIN AMAZING and so comfy and HOT! I need to get a boyfriend!!
Dusk - did you see anything you like? It was the brand new purple suede Steve Mmadden stilettos huh? (Size 9 Australia/US).I can't believe they didn't sell! But a repeat customer bought her FIFTH pair of shoes from me yesterday! I love my frequent buyers!
La Dama - Oh you would have loved everything - it was so much fun!
Sam - I was hoping you'd pop in yesterday - I missed you! Let me know if your work wants some special items for their dementia patients - I have a few things that I'd like to donate if so.
Ladies - you're all FABULOUS! xxx
You look absolutely wonderful in that fake fur hood, you gorgeous creature. I'd have joined you in snapping up a leopard print bra - mitchy matchy undies? No way!
I love those earrings soooo much. xxx
Ill ask tomorrow. We have like a mega compulsory work meeting tomorrow and if i dont attend ill be like scalped or written too or something. Were having a christmas thing in a few weeks so i might suggest a theme. Some of the residents have clothes i totally would wear. One 94 year old lady even sets her hair in pin curls every night. How frikin awesome is that!!
