When in Sydney, I was excited to be able to visit a few vintage shops that were on my list, however we came across this one purely by accident. Surry Hills is another suburb of Sydney which has some fab vintage shops, and we were heading down Crown Street, when I happened to look up […]
Those of us in the southern hemisphere are now heading into the cooler months of Autumn. I much prefer the warmer months, but there is some initial love for the change of seasons, as new outfits are sorted out….any excuse to go shopping!

By pure luck, when I booked our accommodation in Sydney, we ended up not far from the vintage mecca that is Newtown.
