Melbourne Design Market
Just when you thought they couldn't cram more than 16,000 people into Fed Square's underground carpark, they're shooting for 17,000 this Sunday. The Melbourne Design Market is basically the Glastonbury of the independent design shopping world.
Sure, there were a lot of baby products there last time, but, you know, people have babies.
Payless (the double shoe deal)
Which of the items in this photo is the odd one out? If you said "the yacht rock shoes on the left" you are wrong. In fact you are so wrong I should take the boxing glove in the middle and punch you in the face for being so dumb. But I won't. Instead let me tell you the flat out truth:
