So this was the first day on my solo-journey throughout Melbourne city. I did a few things like seeing federation square and the cathedral, eating a few (more like a ton) of things, exploring different shopping areas, going up to the Eureka Skydeck during daytime and also night-time.
Despite the first two days of Melbourne being cool and relatively dry, it was so hot and humid this day. Switch to sleeveless!
I took so many photos it was ridiculous, considering I was only exploring for 2 days. Nevertheless I just put them in order to show what I did throughout the day!
|
Top - Cotton On / Jeans - Topshop Joni Jeans / Shoes - Sliders from Target. I ended up changing shoes halfway through the day because my flat feet were getting sore! |
|
Federation Square/St. Paul's Cathedral |
|
Flinders Street |
|
One of the many alleyways in Melbourne filled with quaint little cafes. |
|
And of course, Hosier Lane. The graffiti art was actually better in some other locations though. |
|
Selfieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee |
|
How cute is this flower shop "pollon". The displays were amazeballs! |
|
I wanted to eat at Manchester Press, but I took photos instead because I didn't want to wait and get a table for one... |
|
Another selfie near another alleyway on my way to La Belle Miette! |
|
Macarons are just plain old pretty. I don't like them all that much, but these were some of the better ones I've had next to Ladurée. I find tasting the different flavours so fun hehe! |
|
Very cute. |
|
Earl grey choc, Blueberry and Violet, Pistachio, Scone and cream, Vanilla, Strawberry and cream. |
|
After eating some macarons, I needed something like a green smoothie to neutralise the ickiness. |
|
Green smoothie with a coconut water base! |
|
Time fo some shopping woohoo! |
|
I've come across several N2's in Sydney but never had the interest to actually get any. Until I saw this Cupcake Central and N2 Pop-up bar". I don't go for cupcakes much but these looked pretty cool! |
|
Science, bitches. |
|
I got strawberry shortcake! |
|
Check out those layers, dayum. Not sure if the stomach ache I got after was worth it though... |
|
Berk Ftweet. |
|
Some shopping areas. |
|
Ugh. I wanted everything inside, but couldn't afford anything... |
|
Cos, and Fat somewhere around the corner. Wasn't disappointed, but wasn't amazed. |
|
Not too busy, not a bad day to be strolling around. (But it was insanely hot.) I still ventured all around the city though. |
|
Pick-me-up from pressed juices. For $9.50 a bottle it's pretty steep, but pretty damn tasty. |
|
Makin' my way through Flinders Walk to the Eureka Tower |
|
:3 |
|
To Level 88! |
|
98th tallest building in the world. |
|
Peeking over the Yarra River. |
|
City buildings!
|
I then headed back to my hotel for some noms, a shower and an fresh change of clothes (all the walking around I did in the humid weather was not pleasant...) and decided to come back out at night!
