[Melbourne] My buys

Did you have a good weekend? Let's continue with the Melbourne series! I hope you are enjoying it. During this trip, I bought some rad items, many of them from markets and thrift shops. Big thanks to my lovely friend, Angela from Three Buttons, who pointed me to her favourite haunts. They were excellent suggestions!!
These are some of my buys. I had to exercise a great amount of self control!

This is a vintage photo jacket. I love the graphics and text!

These are actually book ends made from bricks. Yes, bricks. Don't ask me how I lugged them home. I love them so much and got to choose from several titles.

As you can see, I obviously have intense feelings towards old things :p
