Dollar dollar bills

So as you know, the Aussie dollar is particularly amazing at the moment. And to make the most of it, we feel it is the ideal time to invest in overseas apparel. So, get shopping girls and boys!

We have been doing a little o'seas shopping of our own. Last week a particularly exciting delivery arrived on B's doorstep (perfect timing - the day she handed in her thesis!); at last our Forever 21 order had arrived! We were so so happy with absolutely everything we bought; our only regret was that we didn't buy more. It worked out to be super cheap, and another bonus: no-one else has the same items as us (except we bought the same skirt as each other... but it was too cute to resist! Plus now we have two colours to choose from).


B's mini black knot skirt and ruched grey number.
They are so versatile, cute and comfortable - perfect for summer

B's two skirts plus a sweet lace panelled tee

A's khaki ruched skirt plus a navy + white striped bandeau skirt (with folder over option to shorten)... which was $6 ! Ridiculous!

A's nude wedges

Also from the US - the amazing 'N' brought home an exciting array of goodies! He became a regular in Sephora and Urban Outfitters, and even stopped in at Victoria's Secret on his own accord... proving you can teach a man how to love to shop, and even be great at it



Going in on overseas orders with friends is definitely the way to do it; it cuts your shipping costs right down and you get the excitement of trying on all your goodies together. Sharing items can even be a good idea if you are hesitant about the investment or you both want the same item in the same colour

So why not help the US out by boosting their economy and investing in some of their lovely merch. You'll be helping them out whilst grabbing yourself an amazing bargain.
It's win-win.

Happy shopping!

P.S. alittany. accepts no responsibility for encouraging you to shop ;) ... we just want to spread the joy with you all! Remember to always shop within your budget, double check sizing charts and make sure you love it before clicking the delicious 'buy' button!
