Melbourne Birthday Shopping Haul

Yesterday my mum and I headed down to Melbourne to celebrate my birthday, after we had breakfast with a few of my friends we went and did a bit of shopping and well Melbourne... Your sales are on  point at the moment!.

(Sorry if the photos are tacky, my camera died mid shoot so I had to use my iPhone -.-)



First up, we headed to Topshop on Chapel St and I don't think I've ever made this many purchases at Topshop all in the one go!

Light Blue Topshop Boutique Tee 
(I lost the tag, sorry)
Was $60
Bought for $30

Topshop Petite Linen Mix Stripe Tee
Was $44
Bought for $22

Topshop Up All Night Tee
Was $32
Bought for $16

I've been waiting since before Christmas last year for this tee to come on sale, and I will admit I did fall in love with it because its reminds me of my favourite 5 boys.

Also at Topshop I bought this blush and eye duo in the shade 'Bitten Cherry'

Was $24
Then $12
Bought for $7

It's come up for brown on camera, I will try and get a better photo of it for you all to see it's lovely dewy purple colour.


Nicola and I found these whilst checking out all the little bins Topshop have in the cue, they're just so cute! 
Topshop Exclusive Halloween Character Nail Wrap
Was $12
Then $6
Bought for $3

I also bought these stockings, which have a knitted plait texture/pattern running up and down the legs. Again the photos haven't shown up very well so when I wear them I will add a photo in.


Was $24
Then $12
Bought for $3


Next we went to a little boutique on Chapel St that my friend's Lucii and Stella shop at that they thought I might like and boy were they right!!

I had been eyeing these two dresses off on two different Australian online boutiques for a couple of events I have coming up and each of them were between $70-$80 online so when I saw them in store it was just meant to be.


Brand: Blossom 
Bought in store for $49.95

This next dress was really difficult to get a picture of, but it will be on my Instagram in a few weeks when I wear it to my brothers 18th.


Brand: Luvalot 
Bought in store for: $55

Keeping in theme which is clothing, these are my purchases from the biggest discounted Cotton On Melbourne has and I am about to show you all my favourite item for the day!

This dress I was going to buy when Astrid (my best friend.. I'm sure I've mentioned her before) and I went to Melbourne together to do some shopping and I was just too upset that I'd bought so much already that I didn't buy it. I regretted it so much when we got back home.

Astrid if you're reading this, are you proud of me? I'm proud of me *blushes*

Jodi Acid Wash Denim Skater Dress
Was $39.95
Then $15
Bought for $10

Ella Quitted Pu Skirt
Was: $29.95
Bought for $10

Close up of the quitting

Now onto my favourite favourite FAVOURITE purchase...


Was $24.95
Bought for $10

I can't wait to put little holes in this dress, it's gonna go so well with thin black stockings with rips in them, the black Rubi Shoes, shoes I also bought (first pair under this next item) and a black leather jacket or a dark oversized denim jacket.

This skirt, I was "umming" and "ahhing" about and went into Dotti 3 times before buying it. It's black and leather so I figured I couldn't just leave it there... Could I? (no, no I couldn't, I tried)
Was $49.95
Then $29.95
Bought for 19.95


Moving away from clothing now, I only purchases 2 pairs of shoes yesterday. These I love dearly and when I showed my mum in store she just scrunched her nose, all I could do was laugh.

Was around $50 (the tag wasn't on my shoes when bought)
Then $20
Bought for $15


Amber Fisherman Boot
Was $49.95
Bought for $5



This next part is my favourite part, makeup.
There's this massive discounted beauty store in Melbourne I always make sure I stop by and this time I ended up spending around 80 dollars there but I bought so much!

I know these aren't make up, not even in the slightest. I was, again, going to buy these candles from Topshop online last year and they were about $20 each and I was most definitely not going to be paying that much for such a small candle!.
Was $9.95 (in this store) each
Bought for $6 each

These brushes didn't have original pricing on the stickers but they were written in store I just didn't pay too much attention, sorry.

Last but not least for my haul.


I made my very first MAC purchase! I was hesitant to buy MAC because of breakouts but after using Nicola's one a few weeks ago and wearing it to a gig, it passed the test.
