Market Day.

I have been utterly lazy and there is no excuse. But I will say in my defence the lack of posting was mostly due in part to a lost camera chip (possible hiding somewhere in the depths of my room just waiting to be vacuumed). 
And then it was just a train-wreck from there onwards. Let us never speak of this again and move on. 

Sydney bought an amazing day on Sunday, all sunny blue skies and cool breezes. Perfect for an outing! Started the day with an amazing breakfast at the Four Points Sheraton (the hashbrowns were to die for) and then it was off to the Star to try out luck. 

And lucky we were ;) 


Always quit while you're ahead here kids. 

Then I dragged Mr. K all the way to the Rocks for the markets! They happen every weekend from about 10am to 5pm and I always love going. I totally recommend you check it out and even if you come away with nothing, there's just no fun like the fun of walking through a market as charming as this one, I just wish Sydney had more for those of us who will never tire of acquiring little nick nacks we really dont need... 


Granted though you may have to look out for stalls which sell things you can find at any other market but at double or triple the prices, but it's the unique, handmade, quirky and one of a kind things which make this market famous. You'll find a lot of small local labels and designers with some amazing things, not the mention the chocolate covered strawberries. I'll give you a second to drool. 



I literally squealed when I saw these...




Aren't they freaking adorable???? They are hands down the most cutest ugly little monsters I've ever seen. That little one in the left corner kind of reminds me of me during exam time, sleepless nights, dilated pupils, unkempt hair and high on coffee wearing the most ridiculous ensembles you've ever seen. But I am no where near as cute. 

Get a load of the lips! 
Each one is hand stitched and unique, no two monsters will be the same, which makes it even better!

Meet Louie 
I had to take this little guy home, the polka dots ant button eyes were just too much. He's going to hand very nicely on my handbags. 

Definitely a good day, and I'll be back again for sure!! 

In other news, look what finally came for me. 

Behold. 

Although you can't see in this picture because I am simply not capable of that much flexibility, the have little spikes around the back of the cuff and although I have stabbed my finger on them numerous times already, I love that they are there. 

Right???? Aren't they just out of this world. You have no idea the trials and tribulations I went through to try and find the perfect cap-toe shoe. I wanted them to be flat just so I could wear them comfortably with everything but most of all I wanted the toe to be metal and not just gold material. Finally stumbled upon these on a cute little website and after many second thoughts and lengthy consultations with Mr. K, I made them mine. They were definitely way more expensive than I was planning to spend (international shipping you kill my life) but now that they are in my possession, I have no regrets.  

Way past my bed time now! Night!
