Living Room

Living Room is a cute little shop on a stretch of Australia Street, Newtown, just off King Street, which also contains the amazing Black Star Pastry, a funky hairdressers, and two restaurants, Oscillate Wildly and Barmuda. I had to pick one place to feature so I chose Living Room, which is run by Thai expat Jah (pictured below) and her sister. It's packed with cute accessories, mostly imported from Thailand, pretty clothes (all, unfortunately for me, in size "birdlike" only), and a striking collection of enamel toys. I came away with an owl pendant for $25 (I know, this could get expensive). Well worth a visit if you're looking for a funny little gift for someone.
