Gilles Street Markets

So I decided to make this blog because I wanted to post my clothing finds and things that I'm planning on creating because I am getting a sewing machine for Christmas, and it is going to become my life.  So a little bit about me: My name is Kate, and I'm into all things arty and creative.  I want to be a journalist one day, and move to England. I currently live in Adelaide, and I'm only just finished year ten.  I have a lot of time before I'm going to be making myself a name.  I also really like clothes and fashion, and I tend to like unique clothes and looks, and I like cardigans, scarfs, and floral things.  I have too many shoes and I like shorts with tights and long socks.

Yesterday was the last Gilles Street Markets for the year and I wanted to post what I bought and stuff.  I also really need a new camera, so sorry for the dodgy quality and when I have the time to save up for a new one I shall start using lookbook, but for now we can go on with my mobile quality.

I bought this jacket from one of the second hand stall where everything was either $5 or $10, and they were selling these cute white boots for about $2 but with my mother's advice I shall never buy second hand shoes in case of diseases and such. This jacket was only $5 and I thought it was amazing, cause when I was on holiday in England I saw a jacket like this in new look and they were selling it for around $50 and I just thought this was an amazing buy. 

The brand was something I had never heard of something like "Sisely's" but it could be a well known brand.

I  also bought a cardigan for $15 dollars, and I really liked the stall that I bought it from but the guy there was giving me dodgy looks so I didn't really feel like he deserved to be given money. I really wanted a plain white cardigan but I think this is better.
It was from target and it had a little bit of a stain on the collar, but I fell in love with it and could not put it down.  The photo on the left is pretty bad quality but I just wanted to show what the pattern was like.  I would wear this with denim shorts over the top of tights, and maybe a scarf but I don't have a scarf that would go with this.
I think it's also really funny that i bought wintry things and it's nearly the middle of summer although that it was raining yesterday and me and Monique were waiting for the tram and got rained on.  So I bought this top from the same stall as the first jacket for again  only $5. I didn't fall in love with it like the other two tops but I just needed something I would like with the left over money I had, but I really like the pattern, because you know florals are like my thing and the jumper from target is also florals.

I also bought this necklace for $3 and I just thought it was amazing and I could not put it down.  You can't exactly see with the photo but it has got old coins and crystal-like stones on it. I love things like this, just because it is so unique and everything.

I cannot wait for Christmas for my sewing machine and all my new clothes, I cannot wait!  Merry Christmas and thanks for reading xx
