With the insane amount of rain Melbourne has received over the last few days, my feet have been getting a little on the cold side. Somehow over the past couple of months I’ve managed to destroy all my flats! My (rather large) shoe collection at the moment contains flipflops/thongs, boots and heels. I don’t really have anything very suitable or comfortable enough for every day wear.
With this in mind I went shopping today. I love DFO! Factory outlets and clearance centres are an awesome (and cost effective) way to shop.
I bought three pairs of flats for under AUD$25 at a place called Rubi Shoes. I wouldn’t call them top quality… but for an average price of just above AUD$8, who cares! I certainly don’t! They’re absolutely adorable! I got cute little blue, red and white tartan ones (pictured), a pair of tan ones and some plain black ones to wear to and from work.
As well as shoes, I bought a dress from Table 8 (AUD$15) which I plan to wear to a wedding in November. I also bought a few things in Dotti; a cute top (AUD$5) and a cute dark grey cardigan (AUD$10). Shopping on a budget here! Amanda should be proud!
Thanks for your comment on my blog, it made me laugh!
Those shoes look really cute and were defo a nice bargain. I love flat shoes, they don’t kill your feet like high heels do! :)
I think Amanda would be proud of your budgeting skills. haha :D
Nice shoes, they’re adorable! And wow, they were really cheap too, I wish I had your budgeting skills. :P
Factory outlets are definitly awesome. Those shoes are really cute! And really cheap. Your budgeting skills are awesome : )
I love the feeling of buying inexpensive things… except last time I went to a factory outlet and bought clothes, I found them cheaper at a normal store! It was only a couple of days later, too, so it wasn’t like the prices had a chance to change.
Kaylee! That sucks! :(
DFO Melbourne rocks over Canberra’s any day. I’ll be hitting it again in Nov :) (we’re down the last weekend from wed-mon 1st dec) if you’re in town, we shall have to eat
<3 Much love! :P
As much as I hate to admit it, I actually like…. LOVE shopping for shoes hahaha! Those are nice bargains! Man I feel like going to the mall now hahaha
PHONNNNNNNNNNNNA! Lunch? And shopping? :D Of course I’ll be in town! :)
Cute shoes! My flats are about to fall apart — I can’t wait until I can afford some more. I always wanted a brown pair. :|
Cute flats!! Def worth the price!
OMG those flats are sooo cute! I need a new pair. I always get fashion advice from my mom, and she insists I should be buying heels instead of flats though.
Kim! I love heels! I just can’t wear them every day! :)
