Ladies Luncheon
We decided to celebrate the Melbourne Cup with our favourite ladies, cannoli, meringues, fascinators, vanilla slice, delicious crudités, headbands, quiche, and Riley (the best dog ever).
Also thoroughly enjoying Thea's velvety sandals from Betts and B's amazing necklace (100 brownie points if you guess where it's from...).
All of the deliciousness made us a little delirious. Introducing the newest lip wear by Creme de la Creme

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!

Spring Cleaning
It is the perfect time of year to give your wardrobe a complete makeover!
Yes, we'll admit - it is an extremely painful chore. You spend hours inside, going through everything and asking yourself; "Will I ever wear this again?" And no, there is no point saving a pleated skirt and matching 2004 edition Maurie & Eve decorated singlet (you know the ones...) even if that was your favourite outfit in year 10 because let's be honest, nobody really needs those things. Ever.
It's like saying goodbye to old lovers who you have spent alot of money on but that you no longer have feelings for. Hold onto the things that you are still in love with (not love's annoying sister, lust) - because you love them for a reason and one day you will thank yourself for holding onto them.
But in the end, after the pain and heartbreak of the farewell - the beautiful result is a wardrobe full of things you will ACTUALLY wear. Not only will you be able to see everything you own, but you will see the holes where things you need (need, want... same thing) must take place.
And this is the most exciting part of all! The shopping that must take place afterwards, both as a reward for all of your hard work and as a necessity - to buy and build the perfect wardrobe.
If you clean reallly reallllly well your wardrobe may look like this:
Now to find a Mr. Big who will build you one...
Whether you donate your clothes to charity, chuck the ones that have no hope of resurrection and even sell those pieces which you invested heavily in - you will feel a whole lot better. So don't put it off.. cleanse your wardrobe today and you will feel amazingly revitalised and ready for the summer!

Crystal coveting
They say diamonds are a girls best friend. But crystals are something we can afford so we will go with these rocks instead.
Loving the raw, edgy look of these crystals for spring/summer - they'll add colour and a hippy vibe whilst being a bit different to the usual silver/gold accessories. These babies reflect the most beautiful light and apparently have healing properties... still unsure about the last part but why the hell not
