August is coming to a close, and after some freezing weather, which included hail and frost, I am excited to say that Spring is now in the air! Here is my Taking Stock list for this month…. Making : an effort with my outfits, something I have never really done before! I now have a […]
During our recent visit to Ballarat, we discovered the most fabulous vintage shop….called appropriately That Little Vintage Shop! As soon as we walked in the door, I knew this was my kind of shop, and I can safely say I could spend a few very happy hours exploring all the wonderful treasures! The shop is […]
I love it when the stars align…this time it was because I discovered that there was a vintage fair being held in Ballarat the very same weekend we were in town! Frock Up Ballarat is run by the same group who did The Way We Wear Winter Fair in Williamstown that we went to last […]

What an absolutely perfect venue for all things vintage…the art deco style of hall just adds to the whole atmosphere! Plus all the beautifully dressed ladies […]
