Vintage white skirt, Thrifted Marks & Spencer Jumper, Jacket from Tokyo, Oxfords by Orbit, Vintage Satchel Bag
Wow, what a weekend. I arrived home later than planned last night after a little hiccup of a missed flight and a few extra hours waiting around the airport – I’m hopeless! Exploring the city with Luke, or any place for that matter, is an experience in itself. I like to plan everything out, know where we’re going and when, what we’re seeing and why, and I try to make the most of every second in a new place by seeing as much as I can. Luke on the other hand, is the polar opposite. He likes not booking accommodation, not knowing what he’s doing or where he’s going, he likes trying weird food and laughs it off when it’s.. Well, a little too weird, and just goes with the flow. We were laughing at how different we are sometimes yet we’re completely compatible. Over the years I’ve learned so much from Luke but at the top of my list is the fact that he pushes me out of my comfort zone and really opens my eyes to trying exciting new things. So I let my hair down, relaxed, and explored Melbourne Luke’s way. We caught the city tram around Melbourne making split decisions at the last second by jumping on and off at places that caught our eye. It’s how we ended up at these amazing stone steps and pillars in the late afternoon and I was feeling more in love than ever…
Like my afternoon, this outfit was not planned. Seeing as the weather decided to drop to freezing temperatures I had to improvise with what I had. I can’t even begin to tell you how soft this fluffy grey jumper is and I actually wear it to bed (I can’t believe i’m telling you this..) so I just layered it with the only jacket I brought with me which kept me incredibly warm all day. As for the bag, it’s one of three purchases I made over the entire weekend! I found it at a little opshop for a mere $10 and it kind of reminds me of a mix between the Mulberry Alexa and the classic Hermes bag, or is that just me? Either way, I’m utterly in love with this bag nearly as much as the day I spent frolicking around Melbourne with it and Luke. Vintage never ceases to amaze me. More photos are coming, I promise.
