This is the ultimate Op Shop. This store has been moved from Inkerman St and enlarged to a point…read morewhere it takes a good hour and a bit to get through your rummage of all the...stuff. There are heaps of designer clothes that go for next to nothing but a lot are priced quite high so be prepared if you get that feeling of, "I have to HAVE this", you might be digging deep into your wallet. I like how big it is and I think it's getting even bigger because last time I went there it looked like a space had been made for a furniture section. So if this does happen then it truly will be the ultimate Op Shop. The people are reasonable there as well so if you think something is over priced don't be afraid to ask and usually they'll drop a couple of dollars (good tip). I've picked up some great shoes there as well as bags, lights, kitchen ware, a coffee machine (that works), shirts, jackets and was tempted to buy a dresser but contained myself, as it was probably for the best, because sometimes you get home and realise you don't really need half the things you buy!

One of the largest collections of men's and women's hats I've found in Melbourne. I like to think…read morethat men's hat a making a come back and can add style to both formal and casual attire with the practical nature of keeping the sun off your head in summer and keeping your head warm in winter. If you are of a mature age, you probably look a bit silly in a beenie but with a hat you can look make a statement. Men's hat styles include panama, caps, bowlers, derbys, fedora's, pork pies and top hats. I didn't see any bush style Akubra's but I didn't get through the whole collection! They definitly had the Akubra brand plus plenty of other brands. There staff mentioned that there is new styles coming in often so come back and visit every few months.

I got some suit alterations done in very short notice (24 hours, 4 suits). When I told the person…read moreat the counter what I needed she got me measured up and was able to get 2 of my suits out in time for my first day at work. The person who served me had an accent. Please don't mistake her for being abrupt, it's just a cultural thing. Great prompt service. +++ I should also mention that like the last reviewer this place only accepts cash, but there is an ANZ ATM just over a block away from her shop.

I've had lots of small pieces altered here; pants taken up, skirt hem fixed etc and the repairs…read morehave always been great. I had my wedding dress altered here recently-which involved shortening a satin underskirt and 4 layers of tulle all to the same length. They did a wonderful job and it was super reasonable too, less than $130. The only slight downside is that they don't take card payments at all so I always have to remember to get cash before I collect.

Went down to St. Kilda Bazar today and had the most lovely time. The shop isn't one hundred percent…read moreset up yet, but from the bits that we saw, we can't speak highly enough of it! The articles were all beautiful and well priced and the gentleman setting the store up was absolutely wonderful. He was so helpful and couldn't speak highly enough of the respective people involved in the business. His plans for the store sound absolutely incredible and we can't wait to see what happens with the store. It's a perfect mix of nostalgic pieces that remind you of a time where dishes, rent and all the other annoying things about being an adult didn't occupy your mind and unworldly articles of history that make you want to don a pair of bloomers and churn some butter. We can't wait to fill our little apartment with the quirky oddities and absolute gems that we know we will unearth here! I know where my paycheque will be going in the future!

Little Lost Land is the kind of store that I wish there were more of in St.Kilda. A world away from…read moretrashy chain-stores and generic hippie gear of Acland Street, Little Lost Land offers something a little different. Featuring vintage inspired designs, this is one of the few places in Melbourne where you can pick up truly unique pieces. No one like looking the same as everyone else, which is why stores with limited stock runs are such a godsend. The array of individual designs on offer is enough to satisfy the most discerning of shoppers. Little Lost Land also stocks a great range of shoes and jewellery by both local and international designers.

From great quality cardigans that won't lose their shape, to quirky dresses to fashion-forward tops and bottoms with the cutest prints. This is one store that doesn't shy away from prints. In fact, Friends of Couture seems to thrive on prints. If you're serious about dots, stripes, hearts, bows, checks, horses, owls, bears, moose, deer and cats, you'll love the stuff here. If you hate these prints - go elsewhere! Serious, monochromatic-addicts will hate it here. I love the quirky patterns, vintage inspired buys and spin-offs on classic prints that this shop does so well. Plus, it carries a good selection of handbags and accessories to complete your outfit with. Always make sure to check the back racks for sale products. Very often you'll find that perfect dress, scarf or cardi just waiting to be brought home by you.
