I love Camberwell market, it’s a great place to shop in Melbourne, or just visit if you’d like to see where the locals shop.
You can buy almost anything but the main focus is clothes, jewellery, antiques and home wares. Over the years I’ve picked up some amazing accessories, only yesterday I saw an original YSL handbag from the 1970s on sale for $35.
Next week is the last market for the year if you are thinking about visiting, it will then start up again in the new year.
I bought this print for 10c.
I bought this little trinket box, I thought it would be perfect for kris kringle. The bracelet is by a Melbourne label and I met one of the designers, Kara who was selling them only at Camberwell.
They are all semi-precious stones with either gold or silver trinkets, but the sweetest part is that they are all of $18. She will be there next week, or you can email fambrod@optusnet.com.au for all other enquiries.
You can’t tell in the light, but this silk top is a really pale peach colour. It is so soft and feminine, perfect addition to my summer wardrobe. The painting in the background was $5 and I LOVE it!. His Lordship has banished it to the basement, but as you know I love all things kitsch and am planning a wall of kitschy paintings, this being the first edition.
I really love 70’s glass wear, it reminds me of my childhood and how I used to visit our neighbours, Beat and Brian. She would let my brother and I choose from what seems like a cavernous tin of Arnotts Family Assorted, and naturally we always chose the choc ripple.
Then she would give us some cordial in glasses just like these. I loved the champagne ones too.
I took a friend from the States with me who is really into health and fitness. She was HORRIFIED that I was going to devour this bratwurst(devour I did) and insisted on taking a photo. Nothing can stand between me and a bratwurst.
