Bendigo - Couture and op-shops!







Last Friday Josie and I travelled to Bendigo, mainly to see their Golden Age of Couture show, but also to visit some op shops. The exhibit is really wonderful, so many really really beautiful amazing dresses, they are so detailed and made of the most wonderful fabrics, its hard to believe they were actually worn. Op-shopping was good too, I visit Bendigo so often, one of the lady's in the op-shops recognised me and praised me for my persistence! Here's a little of what I found.

I also just found these maps and op-shopping guides on the Bendigo Tourism website, for anyone interested in making a day out of it. All the op-shops located in central Bendigo are in easy walking distance from the train station. All you need to do is click on the shopping and map links and all is there for you.

Bendigo...Again!



The other day some friends and I visited Bendigo again. We stopped at Woodend along the way and had some morning tea in their great bakery. We visited as many op-shops as we could, but one lady told us there were a total of 17 in the area, one day i hope to get to them all.
