Bought! Typo and Sportsgirl
So now I have brought my loot home it dawns on me that I didn't really bargain hunt, but as previous posts will tell you I have a soft spot for the odd, and love to fill my house with conversational pieces. Even my laundry.
How cute is this! It's not like the same old retro style laundry buckets that you see in all the fancy-pants home stores (hell, even Aldi has cottoned on with their own range out this week ...) The miniature washing washing design won me over, and you can quickly see how much powder is in there without needing to take off the lid. Perfect. (There is also a handle, but you can't really see it with my awesome photography efforts)
Secondly, I caved in and bought the glitter booties from Sportsgirl, no, not the imitation Miu Miu's but the black ankle boots with the little heel, it's love!

Perfect amount of heel to get about it all day without pain, they go with the mountain of black opaques I get about in in Winter, Work and play appropriate, (they're used to me and my strange outfits.) And they're covered in glitter!
Have you bought anything awesome in the mid season sales? What did you get?

Mid Season Sales!
Well after this morning's erroneous mistake of walking to the shops only to discover the entire damn complex is closed, (Yeah, that's my daft nature for you.) I guess what I'll be doing tomorrow instead will be checking out some of the many mid season sales that are about. stacks of shops are doing them, and with more then 30% off the stock that you want for winter it's worth going and seeing what's out there.
Alannah Hill: Has an extra 20% off sale stock until Monday the 9th.
Myer: I much prefer the bricks and mortar store to the online one. Always a goodie to check out, I never go in with a real objective because you won't often find whatever is in your head, but you will find something!
Portmans: Huge amount of stock marked down, plus $50 off all coats, Excellent Brit girl inspired styles in store now.
Sportgirl: Heaps of winter stock on sale, and receive a $25 voucher for every purchase over $100.
Dotti: Lots of cute 60's style gear on sale, and their awesomely priced outlet shop now online.
Mimco: Only gets more and more appealing as the prices drop, good chance to either earn or use up loyalty vouchers!
Review: Up to 50% off, with 20% off new styles.
Typo: 30% off storewide, in store only until the 9th of April, much prefer this store in the flesh then online too.
So ... what are you doing tomorrow??

Etsy Wednesdays: BZRshop
I love tights, not quite as much as some of my friends do, but they're still an essential fashion item in Queensland where it hardly ever gets truly cold enough to wear pants. (In fact I have a local friend who never actually wears trousers at all!)
Tights can make an outfit, they can take a dress that is on the verge of being too short to be reasonable into wearable territory and can make your legs go for miles. So I guess this post is for my fellow tights appreciators, check these out!

Dip dyed Ombre tights! Tiffany Ju hand-makes these to order through her Etsy Shop, Check out her range at BZRshop.
