I didn't actually buy that much during the Boxing Day sales but given I wasn't intending on doing ANY shopping I guess I did shop a bit.
I visited Bourke St Mall, DFO Southbank, Melbourne Central and Chapel St. I'm taking the following with me back to Sydney:
Top left: Marcs 3/4 blazer in hot pink
Tracked down the last size 4 in Melbourne and trekked out to Chapel St to get it. So glad Marcs does a size 4. Shame on you Cue for making huge size 6s and no size 4s.
$159 down from $250
Top right: Forever New grey marle tank with fuchsia piping
Again, thanks Forever New for making size 4s. Clings nicely but not too tight.
$5 down from $20
Bottom left: Peter Alexander bunny jumper
Bought for my animal fanatic sister. It's made of merino wool which will keep her nice and warm in winter.
$39.98 down from $140
Bottom right: Pilgrim lace skirt
Size 6 as Pilgrim hasn't adopted vanity sizing yet, which is nice to see. Long enough that I can wear this skirt to work, but fancy enough that I can wear casually. I love the lace print as it's quite unique, and the way the bottom layer peeks out is really cute.
$50 down from $120
All up I spent $255 when retail for these items was $530 so very happy with myself.
It got unexpectedly cold last night in Melbourne so I had to wear the Marcs blazer when we went out for dinner. The only footwear options I had were Havaianas or Dunlop Volleys (for Falls) so I wore thongs with a nice blazer haha.
The pink piping on the tank matches the pink blazer really well:
Signing out for now, about to drive down to Lorne. See you next year everyone!!
