antiques, wedding dresses, pompoms and a patiserrie on high street, malvern

I couldn't resist more antique hunting on High Street, Malvern in Melbourne. I love the carousel horse and the decoy ducks which have been mounted onto a work bench. And I am always drawn to copper pans.
A chai latte and a pastry outside Phillippa's helped with energy levels to continue window shopping. Phillippa's had their Melbourne Cup menu on display on a blackboard out the front...it sounded delicious!
There are numerous wedding gown boutiques on High Street, Malvern. A bride-to-be's dream!
I was taken with these pompoms which were made out of hessian, rather than the traditional tissue paper. They had a very earthy feel to them.
The light in this shop, above, was beautiful. All items were meticulously displayed.
A French inspired home wares store had some pieces for sale out on the street. Very European. And everyone enjoys a good fossick, or is it just me?

  1. High St Malvern is certainly a lovely place to visit. Pompom seem to be the craze at the moment. I love Phillipas. They make the best fruit mince pies for Christmas. Once you have one there is no other one to replace it. Charmaine
