I've made a couple of purchases over the last month...

- Sylvain Semi circle barrette - from colette.fr the one I gauked over a couple of months ago
- Cheap Monday Katherine Belt - from shopbop
- Van Rolt - Silk Maxi Dress - from LOOKK

Another song showcasing a lovely seventh in the melody. This song along with Clare the artist was showcased on Offspring, an epic Melbourne TV series. My favourite tv show period. 
Clare Bowditch - You make me happy

we are a dime in a well


I was ambushed by a thunderstorm after shopping at Salvos where I found a... Canon Canonet QL17 + a UV filter attached + the leather case for $40! serious find! Going to get it checked out by a camera doctor first before I use it, see if it needs any replacing or cleaning. Hopefully it's in working order, because it's quite an upgrade from my Yamasheta 35mm toy camera which is just a point and shoot. It wasn't too exciting. The thing with film cameras is that I like the idea of not knowing how a picture turns out until you develop it. But I like being able to adjust the aperture and shutter speed etc on dslrs. So this Canonet is a great compromise. That is if it works. 

The tune to this song is so heartbreakingly beautiful.
