{the birthday + CHRISTmas gift edition}

hello friendlkins!

happy happy joy joy to you all! hope y'all feeling fine n dandy. i am as i've been listening to CHRISTmassy tunes! sleeping at last + sufjan stevens. so as some of you may know already, it was my 24th birthday on sunday! woot! i'm getting old... what did i do on my handy dandy b'day i hear you ask. well, here's my day:

source

tommy + i slept in, which was quite lovely. we slowly made our way to lunch to our favourite burger shop for burgers + chippies. then we were in the car, listening to some sweet tunes on the way to carriageworks for the finders keepers markets! i was quite very excited, as i've always wanted to go but but have been sick or super busy! we perused the aisles of funky, indie, crafty stores full of lovely things mostly to look at, as they aren't cheap! BUT tommy bought me a lovely apple dress from alice nightingale. I'm getting one delivered, made to order - yay for packages!

source

josie joined us in out market adventures, perusing the aisles once more! then out into the gale force winds to find us some tasty tasty gelato! which was obviously from gelatomassi in newtown - its delish + my favourite place to get gelato. you should check it out - on king st newtown!
