stateofbliss: They're from Topshop, they are called Panic, I got them on eBay for way less than retail, they're normally 125 pounds and I paid 55.

^ Thanks for the info! Great deal! They're USD$260 here. I wouldn't pay full price for them, but I doubt they'll ever come on sale (since nothing even semi-decent ever goes on sale at the U.S. Topshop), so I'll be on the lookout on ebay.
. Btw, my Divided Exclusive arrived as well. They look even better than expected and are pretty comfy.caroulemapoule

Verena, yes, it was a great deal! I got the for the eBay Deal Hunter Challenge I'm attending with my bloggermate, the decision is tomorrow, so have your fingers crossed for me

I had to have these because they reminded me of the gorgeous floral prints burberry did a few seasons ago:
I wish it was easier to find cute shoes with a low heel. Seems sometimes that all that's out there is either sky-high or dead flat with only granny-styles in-between :/

! I went to a costume & prop garage sale at the Melbourne Theatre Company - 30 years of stage gear went out the door. The line out the front was longer than the queue for butter in the USSR. It was awesome. I was almost brought to tears when I saw that most of the period coats were gone when I got in...I heard that people had lined up from 3am.
This is what I scored myself.
The whole thing had this fairytale atmosphere, there were girls standing around in 2m-wide hoop-skirts, men in feathered tricornes, skinny boys trying on blood-stained shirts. I imagine all the people of Melbourne going out on the streets dressed in theatre costumes. ... They should make that a themed national holiday or something.
It was really weird emerging from there after a few hours, into a world of normalcy, dressed in my blue sash (now I need to find a ceremonial sword), a wild floppy hat with a feather and that green jacket. <3

^ So pretty!
I picked up a black Vince sweater coat from Marshalls.
Also went to Nordstroms and left with Jo Malone orange blossom cologne (for myself) and grapefruit cologne (gift). Got some essentials from MAC as well (pink plaid lipstick, partial to pink cremesheen glass, nightsky eye liner and smolder kohl).

masha-m i went to the MTC sale as well!!! It was seriously amazing, and SO well priced. I got there at 7:30am but there was only 3 people in line when I arrived so I think 3am is a bit of a rumour! I got some really great stuff too, the only problem was the really amazing costumes (like the hoop skirts and period dresses) were SOO heavy I could barely lift them! I needed a trolley! It did have a great atmosphere with everyone wearing their costumes, I did that myself as well it made it easier to carry more stuff haha!
I'll take photos of what I got now and post them later tonight. I really love your first two items and I saw that periodic table shirt and almost grabbed it myself but couldnt carry anything else haha, so glad someone picked it up

lola rose - you are so lucky you have access to a Maje location. Like Velony, I too wanted that blouse, but it sold out on NAP.

Thank you rochasfille and velony.
I was in Zurich for the wend and my first stop was Maje. There are a lot of great stuff, but I bought only this blouse. But I am going there again in 3 weeks time, so hopefully I will shop more...
