And yet here you are, salivating over my every word, eating it up with your stainless steel soup spoon. Maybe try Corn Flakes tomorrow, the Weetbix seem to make you bitter.

Hmm. I responded directly to your (projectile) comment (stream) upon first reading, versus you waking up next day with the resonance of content you had already read 15 hours ago and starting a fresh new day gnashing over it's basis in truth.

Same!!!

My partner says "Bib, don't look! Don't look!!!!" Because he knows once I do, the wallet opens.

I just feel so sorry for them. Particularly when it is a hot day.

Lol! I just saw it autocorrected to postured my car. Not sure how that works... Anyway.

Are these markets every day? How busy would they get mid-week in non holidays?

Woohoo, Zara has some great kids stuff, I'd love to see some of the pieces if you have time! Did the parents love it? Kids clothes though very pricey for such a limited wear time. Witchery has beautiful stuff, but the quality, for what you pay, I refuse to go there now, all knits I got have lost their shape after a wash etc. H&M and cottonon kids great for daily wear too. You could be a child stylist :D

Yes I love Zara, I had only been into the Australisn store a couple of times years ago as it was sooo different to the overseas ones, but they seem to hsve improved. I'll find stock pics kited today if I can, I briefly attempted a photoshoot yesterday but one tired toddler meant that was never happening. But yes, one happy mama yesterday. If there was even a chance someone would ever pay money for a child stylist I'd so do it, although I'd probably still be outsourcing to you.

What were the prices like in H&M?

Oh my God, the side stall spruiker!

As soon as you make the mistake of locking eyes, you know your $5 is gone.

I have never even used my potato peeler extraordinaire, which is sad since the spruiker convinced me that it would be both economical and time saving for me to buy the second one half price, which resulted in me buying two.

Oh yeah I just remembered a peeler thingy from there that I got decent use out of. It came free with another diced type of implement that I may have used once. I am a sucker for infomercials, so a live action one where it's some poor buggers bread and butter and they are getting ignored... well let's just say that I am the suckers they dream of.

Oh I had a pretty good banana smoothie at Eumundi once. Actually I'm not remembering all the food I ate there, so much of it and so good but not good for me.

I have to say compared to OS Zara australia is SO over priced its not funny, and their mens range is VERY limited, but quality wise is good, I got a beautiful camel trench there this winter, love it!

tbh, (every time I post that I feel like a Kardashian) I have no idea. I have never been on a Wednesday, only Saturdays.

Anyway I have bigger problems atm (ooooh Kardashian coolness...).

(that is your cue to ask me what's wrong)

Yeah I was disappointed when it first came out for all the reasons you stated. I saw some decent jeans yesterday for just $20, I can't get too excited about jeans even though I wear them a lot.

Totally, next stop is the stars. This mum actually did go to school with Nicole Kidman so maybe she'll recommend me to her and I'll be set. Haha seems plausible... right?

Did you see Zara Home opening in pitt street?
Watch out Sunday Roast, Jessy coming for you
 
jessy_girl said:
No I didn't! Is that what I think it is?? The interior design stuff of everyone's collective dream?

And haha yep - watch this space.

Yep, but I had a look at their international stuff, didn't love, but makes sense with West Elm etc coming into Australia and H&M home range that they would bring it here now too

Well since you asked, I am in the midst of a worst hair day ever frenzy!

Fucking stupid GHD, not morphing me into the 50 Shades of Hotness I was genuinely expecting. I have the opposite of body dysmorphia. I am like a super hot babe trapped inside an ordinary middle aged face and body.

Ah yes of course. Exciting times ahead. Whatever happened to Pottery Barn coming here? Is that still happening?
