Vintage Fair

Following the post on events held at the Royal Exhibition Building, one that stays in my mind was the vintage fair. One was held again for the summer just recently on early October this year but sadly I had to passed on that. Still, I have faith that it was as marvelous as the fall's.

the array of pretty vintage dresses mostly from the sixties greeted us first thing. 
can't help trying on several of them. hee. 
the most interesting things I managed to find. scented candles in pretty teacups, isn't it brilliant?
The items offered in the fair was really well curated. My friend snatched this wonderful piece of vintage luggage and she decided to name it Teddy! Amazing thing about him, not only he serves as a luggage, he's also an emergency stool and a tres chic table top!

me sitting on Teddy *thank God it didn't fall apart* wearing vintage dress, blazer and bag with Forever New loafer heels.
Don't worry, I also did a teeny tiny bit of shopping. Hint: It is somewhere hidden in these pictures. Will post on that later!

Finders Keepers

The Royal Exhibition Building located right in Carlton Gardens - a World Heritage site - has been one of the places that held so much of my precious memories.
the passage to the Wonderland.

can fall be depicted any better?

the fountain in golden hours

autumn leaves.

majestic interior of the REB

dip-dyed sky.
One of the most exciting was Finders Keepers.  Simply put, it's where the indie and vintage item vendors gather. Think of the market as the center of the most original things to be found.



lockets. so romantic.

wooden brooches.

fluffies!

earphones-inspired jewelleries

more fluffies.

and more.

some hanging as well. FYI, these ones are made from socks.

gorgeous.

fluffy useless telephone. but it's cute!

pillows too cute not to buy.

And don't forget the fantastic food trucks around....

beatbox burger! try both the mushroom and the beef, equally fantastic.

taco truck that never fails to serve the most mouth-watering fish tacos.



... as well as camwhoring.

 maxi Bardot dress, chiffon Supre shirt as outerwear, ASOS keyhole sunnies and rose gold watch.

close up of the details. notice my lovely pink blush hued  sunnies? Yes, you've guessed it. I'm obsessed with them. Well, with most sunnies. Yeah.
The next Finders Keepers will be held very soon -19th October to be exact -in the same venue. Hope to see you there, I seriously can't wait!
