Heart Melbourne

I have always hearted Melbourne.

I get the rivalry between the two cities, but I can't deny that I love Melbourne. I have to say though I find most Melbournians that I have encountered find it hard to admit they like Sydney too. I always get a "Melbourne's better". They are just totally different cities.

Once in a Sydney nightclub, a guy from Melbourne ran up to our group just to tell us how Melbourne was better. That's nice, thanks mate.

I don't get it? but anyways...

My trip last weekend was fantastic, but freaking exhausting! I was not as much of a tourist this time or a good blogger in taking photos.. so I'll just do this post randomly...

 

We went out both nights and both were massive nights, from these nights I have learnt that in Melbourne "if an alleyway looks like the kind you get murdered in... it will have a good bar/club in it".

I have also learnt that Melbourne's chicken and cheese is $3 (McDonalds) - rort! and the value menu ends at midnight... how will this satisfy my drunken snacking?

So let's start the Melbourne randomness...


I now know how to fit as much as possible in at China Bar (I even got to eat Cheese this time woohoo).


My plane was significantly delayed on the way to Melbourne, but when I finally got to A's apartment this was waiting for me :) He had made me upside down lasagna and it was yummmy!


I bought these gold shoes for only $10!!!! I know they look tacky in the box, but on I think they are HOT HOT HOT.


Friday shopping outfit.
Top: Cotton on
Pants: Sportsgirl


Got this super cute dress from Dotti only $14!!

Lunching outfit. I only know the top is Ralph Lauren.


Read this tram and visit Sydney :)




We thought this place had awesome signs and questioned whether the loyaly program was like the coffee cards? 6th one free? :P


The two of us (A & I) drank this bottle of wine and vodka as PRE DRINKS! My liver hates me.


Baroq House with my gorgeous friend Bec.
Dress: Forever 21.

 

Nothing satisfies a hangover better than a delicious bowl of carbs, but this one in Crown was especially good!

That sums up my Melbourne weekend.

Next trip is a week long one wahhooooo, but for now this weekend.. I'll only have one messy night out and sleep the rest of the time, I need it!

  1. I am a proud Melbourne girl, and there is always a big rivalry between the two cities isn't there?! But you're right, they're just totally different. Sydney is more hustling, and Melbourne is just... Melbourne! :)

    Looks like you had a fab weekend! And look at all those bargains.

    Party girl! :) Hope your liver forgives you xx

  9. I almost never comment, however i did some searching
    and wound up here "Heart Melbourne". And I do have some questions for you if
    it's allright. Is it only me or does it give the impression like some of these responses come across like coming from brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing at other online sites, I would like to keep up with everything new you have to post. Could you make a list of the complete urls of all your public sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
