What a G8 thread

... Yeh, I find Supre & espesh Cotton On an absolute nightmare 2 fit my stroller thru & I jst simply don't shop in there 4 that reason

For myslf I shop Ebay & Oztion (websites) - sometimes 4 vintage stuff & current fashion & accessories (some things from Europe, Asia & USA)

Also Glassons, Jeanswest, Westco, Jayjays, Target, Very very, Dangerfield, some surf shops & some Asian fashion shops in Melb & Sydney

Leather jackets & handbags from Sirrocco in Sth Yarra. Some handbags from Strandbags in Bourke St, Mall.

Leather boots from ZOMP in Melb or Sth Yarra when they av stocktake sales. Purchased a pair of boots once that were $450 & got em on sale 4 $110. There is one in Sydney too !!

... Luckily 4 me DP wrks 4 company he can get most shoe brands that r in Myers 50% off (like Sachi, Pierre Fonte, Merrells, etc...). And also Berlei lingerie 50% off

*** As 4 my 22mth old daughter I can't justify the 'Pumpkin Patch' prices, espesh seein she is in her size clothes 4 a short time. So, I find them sometimes in Op shops. I buy her clothes from Op shops, Target wen on special, Best & Less and on rare occasion from Big W as their quality of clothes av gotten worst ova the yrs, kmart specials, & a little kids clothes shop in the Walkers Arcade in Melb that sells heap of Kaboosh label (av specials there 2). Also buy off eBay & OZtion

I buy all my clothes from op shops. Having said that, I only get things that look new or very little wear. The same with Bub's clothes. If anything has a mark on it, I try to figure out if I think it would come out in the wash, if yes, then I buy it.
I can't justify to myself buying one top for $25, when I could get four or five for the same money. Or jeans for up to $80 or $100, when I buy them for $7 or $8, if that. The only thing I don't get from op shops is underwear and sometimes shoes.
Clothes for the Man or Boy usually don't come from the op shop, purely for the reason that I don't look for clothes for them as much as for myself and Bubs. A bit selfish of me really.
So, any new clothes they (or I & bubs) get come from BigW, Best and Less, Kmart, or Target, when they are on sale. Last week I bought an outfit (pair jeans, shirt, and jumper) for the Boy from Best and Less and it cost over $100. I couldn't believe it, since I normally op shop. However, if I do buy something 'new' its usually only one thing at a time. Last week I also bought I pair of high heels from BigW (primarily to go to my Dad's wedding) for $5, which I thought was terrific.
Anyway, I get complimented on how I dress, and also Bubs, so I don't think I'll change my ways yet. Its an individual thing though.

I shop online a lot. I love babysgotstyle, frockshop and bebeonline for bub's clothing but only for sale items. I'm a bargain hunter lol. If I go shopping, I love Country Road, Seed, Cotton On Kids, Myer and David Jones for bub. I also go to Kmart, Target and Big W for Bonds stuff.

For me, I love the overseas internet sites like Net-a-Porter, Revolve Clothing, Shopbop etc. esp. since the dollar is so strong against the US dollar. I occassionally go into Country Road, Alannah Hill, Zimmermann, Bracewell and the many boutiques in Chadstone - i love Chadstone for clothes shopping (and also Chapel St, and DFO).

for me anywhere from Kmart to Cue and a few independent boutiquey places near me. But I want to start sewing because, let's face it, everything's overpriced. But being a SAHM currently, means I have lots more time on my hands to shop so I'm pretty picky about what I buy and end up spending nowhere near as much as I used to because I'll scout around more for something I really want/need rather than buying something I don't really want/need just to have my retail fix.

For DD - again a real mixture. I try to stock up on her next size in the sales so I don't think I've bought a full-price item yet. We've been lucky to get hand-me-downs from a friend and I also buy lots of her stuff from Kmart/Target then splurge a bit on a few things (sale or eBay) from Fred Bare, Sprout and Moppit.
