Organic French bed linens, Italian sodas, Mexican bunting, luxurious clothing, leather bags... and they're mostly all expensive. Unfortunately it's also shops like these than remind me that I have a beer budget and can't afford to take everything home. There's plenty that you won't need to sell your soul for, though, so definitely take a look and be inspired for your next home decoration or required gift giving.

The shopping strip in Anglesea is not big. You can walk to the end and back in under fifteen…read moreminutes without breaking a sweat. One treasure that could very well take up a third of the place is Seaside Seconds, Anglesea's secondhand goods shop. Often found crowding with people, there is an cataloging system in place, but the simple kind (not like a 'vintage' rack or anything). This leaves you to your own devices to dig deep into the breadth of wares here. Books, CD's, Records, Kitchenware, Bric-a-Brac, Clothes, Linen, Curtains, Pictures, Jewellry, Bags, Garden Tools, Sports Gear, and Whitegoods & Appliances. I'm pretty sure I overhead one of the locals saying this is only place they go to for their shopping needs. There are some real gems and some real misses. Check out the books and madball vintage newspapers, followed closely by the sequined Justin Bieber cap in all its white and pink madness. Leave yourself an hour, you'll need it. The space is deceptively deep, with the goods located further and further into the store. Before you know it you're on the other side getting a breather, a handful of goods to be purchased.

I visit a few times a year, and it's become a bit of a tradition to find something vintage here…read more It's getting harder and harder though, and when a piece does turn up here, it's often damaged but still overpriced. Unfortunately the main issue is that the prices are written in permanent marker on the goods themselves, often unable to be removed. This is a ridiculous system as it basically destroys the piece. I picked up a very rare Scandinavian sugar bowl but the sharpie has gone though the glaze and ruined it. Such a shame... This practice would be understandable if the prices were incredibly cheap; but mostly they price the vintage stuff over and above its worth. I've never seen an op-shop with this permanent marker approach to pricing - please buy some cheap sticker labels. That said, there is sometimes a few good items, sometimes nothing but the staff have always been very lovely and the store, whilst brimming with goods, is nearly sorted into sections. The opening hours are good too, however it is closed on Sunday. I do recommend this store for the casual browser, but if you are looking for cheap, undiscovered vintage pieces, it's not for you.

The lady looking after the shop explained to me some of the history of the building and the items for sale here. Relics of the big factories that have sadly closed - this particular building used to produce springs for Ford. Scattered around the HUGE warehouse are reminders of its past - massive tooling machines, pulley lifts industrial scale fuse boards. There is everything from clothes to building materials, records, bikes, furniture to old surfboards and art. Super eclectic mix of wares. If you have hours to spend searching through this place you could find some gems- and a few bargains.

Frank and Dolly's!!!!!…read more I don't know if It's s a blessing or a curse that I found you and that you are so far away from me!!!!!! Since stumbling upon their store I have literally stalked them on their Instagram page. Everything they sell there are just beautiful unique pieces and are all very very dangerous. So.much.want. They stock products from local and Jon local designer and are happy to source things for you. Their handmade pieces ( like the beautiful skirt and soft jacket) are just gorgeous with enough quirk and personality. Most are one size but they told me that they are happy to resize them to fit you. I was met by Frank at the shop and he is just the most gracious and welcoming business owner. Even if you are just browsing or admiring. You'll be surprised at what you find. I love love love this shop.

Also, when you buy the flowers, they don't wrap with moist towelettes at the bottom. So, you need to get them to water straight away which is inconvient if you will not see her until the end of the day.
