I get asked on a regular basis from overseas visitors where are the best and most affordable places in Melbourne to shop as a tourist.
Here is something that dropped in my inbox yesterday:
Hi, Lady Melbourne,
I’m from Malaysia, I’m going to Australia next week and I’ll be in Melbourne for two weeks. I would like to know where are good places to shop. Could you help? I would like to know some places with clothes, shoes, bags, accessories (basically everything!) that are, well, relatively cheap because I’m on a budget. It would be great if you could help out!
I’ve put together 5 places I think you could shop and get some great pieces that are really affordable, but as usual I’ll put a call out to my readers that if you have anything to contribute please feel free to leave a comment!
Happy shopping!

Amazing and cheap accessories from jewellery to handbags. I pretty much never leave this shop empty handed!

It’s on from about 6am until 1pm sharp and you will find plenty of affordable vintage treasures, plus great hot dogs and doughnuts!
