Camberwell Markets, Melbourne Xo




























Camberwell Sunday market is hands down the best markets I have been to in Australia. Huge with hundreds of stalls, an array of new, second hand and vintage, community driven, friendly and cheap. It is exactly what every market should be. Unfortunately I was only there for the last half hour so didn't get to take my time, but I managed to wrangle quite a few bargains and snapshots (unlike Melbourne stores where I was told off for having a camera in my bag...). I was a very happy girl after purchasing a denim overshirt, four dresses, jumpsuit, clutch, poncho, ring, and chords all for under roughly $60. Definitely taking my larger suitcase with me in a few weekends. 


P.s If you happen to see me wandering around (often solo) in an unknown city please say hi, I would love to meet! (Much funner than being flooded with emails afterwards).

    These markets sound like exactly what you want out of a good market. Do you know if they are every weekend? I would love to go!

    I love Camberwell market and those spoon rings! I've bought a spoon ring and 2 necklaces from that stall and can't help but picking something else up from that stall each time I go! Sounds like you got some amazing things! :)

    Hi Tuula,

    My friends and I (one of them lives with Meli!) are holding a stall at Camberwell Markets this Sunday. Stall #153. Would love if you could spread the word considering you love Camberwell Markets so much :)
