the lutwyche vinnies is closing down. i was up there today doing a bit of thrift shopping and apparently they close on the 3rd of next month. even worse, they had 50% off all clothing but somebody had obviously beat me to it and i bet they hadn't even been going there for the best part of a decade. what suburb were those other stores i liked in? hendra?
anyway, i managed to find a wonderfully ugly pair of boots, a couple of shirts and some jeans that i've hacked up and "distressed" into a pair of shorts a la alexander wang. i doubt i'll ever wear them though.
i went to david jones and they're having a sale that involves 30% off bags and they're all so beautiful and soft and uhhh i'm going to go look at them tomorrow night before my date and try not to buy one. i have to head into the city to hand a resume into this store that would be a dream to work at.
anyway, i fell in love with these shoes today. luckily i already own them and have worn them a bunch of times but just today i had a "god i'm so happy with these shoes" moment. i bought them on sale so i haven't really thought of them as special or looked after them and just kind of chuck them on whenever. but they're pretty versatile but not boring. so yeah.
i'm just about ready to retire my robot keyring, he's lost a lot of colour and only had one hand left on his clock. how's yours holding up?
see that shiny blue key, i got my key cut so i could have a spare one. i gave one to theo too so i don't have to get up to let him in or remember to bring keys when we go out to eat. it's heaps convenient not to mention kind of nice being able to be all "oh here's a key to my door(/heart hahah). i wish you could meet him. you'd probably get along.
do you want to buy me a tiffany and co bracelet for christmas? it's pretty.
love,
beth

i cannot believe vinnies is closing down - that's a landmark - and what a blow to find interlopers had ducked in and grabbed all the specials. the other places are in geebung. they are easy to find, go right at chermside shops (that's hamilton road) left at the lights into newman rd (like yr going to kohanga) and keep going up newman til you get to the geebung shops.
LOVE those shoes, u could wear them anywhere - everyday. we are tidying up a bit today, delcie and michael arrive tomorrow to stay overnight before they go skiing. you and theo should find some spare cash and come over one day, i can put you on to a cheap car hire - even the little touring wagons with beds in the back are quite cheap (cheaper than hotel rooms) you could go on an adventure. bring those shoes. my robot is okay, but i think you are hard on your key rings - remember the sparkly one? and how i had to take back my old one that you broke and give you my new one? i don't have many accessories and i'm only allowed broken stuff. that's why you have a fashion blog and my blog is about mud and creeks and ducks xxxx
