Blue Day at Uni Hill Factory Outlet

May 13 2012 By melbournemamma 7 Comments

I had a couple of spare hours earlier this week, so what did I do?

I went shopping of course!

I’d been dying to get down to the newly refurbished Uni Hill Factory Outlet in Bundoora, so jumped at the chance for a couple of child free shopping hours courtesy of Grandma.

I barely made it through the door when I spotted Simone Pérèle . I just love this store, as I can always find bras in my size and it’s so nice to get a proper fitting (I haven’t had one since I stopped breastfeeding last year). I couldn’t resist this blue bra for only $50 (RRP $89.95) and am planning to go back and get more in different colours.

My next stop (only a couple of doors down) was Milu. I haven’t bought shoes for myself in a little while, so I was like a kid in a candy store. There were several pairs I loved but couldn’t resist this pair of blue suede shoes (cue music) for only $79.00 (RRP $139).

From there I headed to Converse, where I picked up a gorgeous pair of Chuck Taylor All Star Hi’s for my little man (blue of course). The were marked down from $50 to $30.

I then popped into Jetty Surf and picked up a new bag (because a girl can never have too many AND I really loved the colour). The bag was also on sale for $30 (RRP $59.95). It’s a great bag for throwing a few things in when I’m out with the kids and is big enough for a nappy wallet and other essentials.

I also picked up a gorgeous maxi dress (yes, I am a maxi addict) from Sorbet for only $20! Yes, that’s right, $20 (RRP $79.95). Now I just need to wait for it to warm up again so I can wear it.

All in all, I had a fabulous (kid free) morning, with lots of bargains and nearly all of them for me. It was only when I got home that I realised that nearly everything I bought was blue.

I can’t wait to go back again.

    Simone Perele – I’ve never had good bras, what a splurge! Lorna Jane – their sportswear looks so trendy and comfy. And Typo – I’m a sucker for stationery!

Safe to say we picked the perfect time to visit Sy Safe to say we picked the perfect time to visit Sydney ✨

With Vivid lighting up the city every night, we’ve been treated to an incredible show from our apartment and around Darling Harbour 🌟

This spectacular light show was the perfect way to end the evening. Sydney really knows how to put on a show ❤️

Not a bad view to end the day ✨ Darling Harbour p Not a bad view to end the day ✨

Darling Harbour putting on a show from my hotel room window - twinkling lights, reflections on the water and the Sydney skyline glowing after dark 🌃

Definitely no complaints from me 😍

If David Attenborough has taught us anything, it’s If David Attenborough has taught us anything, it’s that the world is breathtakingly beautiful and worth protecting 🌎💚

100 years of Sir David Attenborough. What a life. What a legacy 🌿🐘🐋

Happy Birthday to one of the greatest storytellers the world has ever known 🎂

Just finished ‘Fifty Fifty’ by Steve Cavanagh and Just finished ‘Fifty Fifty’ by Steve Cavanagh and wow, what a ride.

I could not put this one down… ended up reading until 2:30 am to finish it! Such a clever, gripping story that keeps you guessing the whole way through.

Honestly, the entire Eddie Flynn series is fantastic. If you love fast-paced legal thrillers, these are absolute must-reads.

My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

“Alexandra Avellino has just found her father’s mutilated body, and needs the police right away. She believes her sister killed him, and that she is still in the house with a knife. 

Sofia Avellino has just found her father’s mutilated body and needs the police right away. She believes her sister, Alexandra did it, and that she is still in the house, locked in the bathroom. 

Both women are to go on trial at the same time. A joint trial in front of one jury. 

But one of these women is lying. One of them is a murderer. Sitting in a jail cell, about to go on trial with her sister for murder, you might think that this is the last place she expected to be. 

You’d be wrong.”

After being the recipient of a life-saving blood t After being the recipient of a life-saving blood transfusion myself… today I finally gave back 🩸

Over the years I’ve had a few false starts thanks to anemia, high blood pressure and the flu 🤦🏻‍♀️ but we got there in the end 🙌

Feels pretty special knowing this could help someone else the way I was once helped ❤️
