So uneasy, lay your your head on these weary shoulders...

 Have you seen the new movie Avator: Way of Water?

That's the next thing we did on our Eden holiday. It was a long movie and we were in a little, squashy old movie theatre but we enjoyed the visuals. Turned out James Cameron (of 'Titanic'!!!) directed the film. The movie went for 3 hours so we ended up having a late lunch of kebabs at 4pm and then we popped into an art gallery and bookstore.


Outfit details:
Dress ($10) and shoes ($5): market finds.
Bag ($4) and sunglasses ($2): Opshop finds.
Turquoise pendant: A gift from my family friends.
An outfit for $21!



The next day, we went to Nethercote Falls. My boyfriend and I were fascinated by the river geodes (rocks) and tried to find some with crystals inside them. We found one with a white and light purple crystal inside!!





Then we went to Squeaky Beach (a place where the sand squeaks with each step you take), ate some oysters, prawns and pies for lunch. The seafood was delicious! We had fun walking up and down the beach, spotting crabs and tiny pink shells.







The night ended with my boyfriend and I making bolognese fettuccine for dinner and we ate in front of the cabin and watched the red/purple/pink sky. It was beautiful.

I'm getting towards the end of my holiday posts. I hope you stick around for the next one.

    What a wonderfully relaxing holiday you've had! I particularly love the sight (and sound!) of Squeaky Beach, and how wonderful to have found a river geode! You are looking fabulous in your $ 21 outfit! xxx

 Where do you buy your clothing from? Opshops? Online shops? Retail stores? For a while, I hadn't been buying much clothing as my wardrobe is absolutely full! From time to time, I sell pieces from my wardrobe on eBay to slowly thin out my collection. Although recently I fell into an eBay rabbit hole and have purchased quite a few nice dresses.  I bought this  Tree Of Life  dress on eBay after admiring the exact same one my mum has. I tried on her dress, so knew which size to buy. It popped up immediately when I looked it up online, and for less than $30 including postage, it was mine ! Leopard is always fabulous, I think. I enjoyed wearing it for a get-together with family friends at my uncle Arthur's house a little while ago. This cotton, brown and cream kaftan was also from Tree of Life. I wore it recently when going to see Simple Minds play at the Red Hot Summer Tour. And boy was it hot, at 35 °C     we were so sweaty, people were fainting around us...

After 11 weeks of term 2, preparing reports and completing parent-teacher interviews, I farewelled my grade 2 students, and began my two weeks of holidays. I was looking forward to spending time with my family, grandparents and boyfriend, as well as squeezing in some day trips. My mum and I returned to our favourite place, Daylesford. It was a cold, winter's day so we rugged up in big coats which kept us surprisingly toasty. I wore my tartan coat that I recently bought at a market. I had been looking for a big, long coat for some time as well as watching Gilmore Girls and admiring all of the beautiful coats worn on the show. So when I found this brand new coat, I was happy to hand over my $25. At Daylesford, we first roamed the Vintage Mills Market. It's always fun to have a look at the unique items. I found a vintage, leopard coat. It was a bit pricey, so I thought about it for some time and then decided to buy it as it was a dream item that I have been searching for, for prob...

  Last Thursday night, my mum, sister and I went to see Wicked: The Musical in the city!  We quickly dressed and rushed there after work and made it just in the nick of time before the 7pm start. We marvelled at the ceiling and Romeo and Juliet style balcony. I even spotted a handful of Australian TV personalities, walking through a roped off area, which is something I've never seen here in Melbourne. Usually, we all just walk through the same entrance!  I absolutely love  The Wizard of Oz  as you may have noticed  here  and  here  and quite enjoyed Wicked The Musical, with its perspective of two witches Elphaba and Glinda from the Land of Oz. The set was wonderful, with references to the Land of Oz such as the Emerald City, cornfield and a field of poppies. It was lovely to see so many beautifully dressed audience members, with many of them wearing the colour emerald. I loved the enchanting costumes and the singing was absolu...
