So there WILL be a vintage dress event in Melbourne, at Memoirs Boutique (422 Victoria Street, North Melbourne 3051) on Tuesday the 6th. If you'd like to come, do please RSVP at that link before 3 December, since I think there are only so many folks they can fit into the store! (Thanks to Hachette Australia for setting this up!)
I'm ridiculously excited for this trip to Australia. Can't wait!

Oh my! You’re visiting Australia. Does it include a trip to Sydney?
Whooohooo! Booked in! If you need a Melbourne local to take you fabric shopping, lettuce gnome…
Ooh, livebird, I may just take you up on that! And Yvonne, I think I only get to see the Sydney airport.
Exciting! I’ve just RSVP-ed
What a shame you’re not coming to Sydney.
Oh how exciting, Erin!!! But not for me – whilst I will be in Melbourne from Sunday and indeed not so far from North Melbourne I shall be in St Vincent’s Hospital recovering from the major surgery I have been hangin’ out for a couple of months for. Bugger and double bugger! Have a wonderful stay in our pretty city. Goodness, visits from Her Maj, and Our Princess Mary, and now you. Melbourne never has had such a string of famous women!!!
Hugs, Jasmine
Hope to see you in Melbourne
Oh pity you’re not coming to sunny Brissie – we have a thriving vintage scene up here. Maybe next time ….
How excitement! I’m sure you’ll enjoy our delightful city.
If you have the time, you must check out the State Library of Victoria, particularly the La Trobe Reading Room. It is amazing! (Okay, I found it amazing; I’ve not been in any library like that before.)

Such a great topic. I look forward to reading more!
Enjoy Melbourne – my second home and one of my favorite places on earth. I’m deeply envious of your visit. Please say hello to her for me.
Argh! I want to come, but it’s at the same time as a fashion student friend’s fashion parade!
We are so excited to have you at our boutique erin.Uncannily the book sounds a lot like how we run our lovely store.
Looking forward to it!
I loved the bok, as others have said ” It’s a shame you’re not coming to Sydney”.
Sorry Melbourne is turning on such cold weather for you this weekend, Erin! Hope you have brought warm things with you.
Welcome to Australia! I love your style. Come to Sydney next time.
I heard you speak at the AATE conference on Sunday, and you totally wowed me. I’m already telling everyone I know about Wordnik. Pity we couldn’t get a signed copy of your book
and other way I can get one?
Hi Linda! Thanks so much! As for the books … I signed a very, very large stack of books at both the Memoirs vintage boutique in North Melbourne (they are nicely going to sell them all through the holidays) and at the Dymock’s in the CBD (look at me using Melbournese like a pro).
oh noes! i love your book and ive missed out on you coming to so close to me. heart broken! I Loooove your book.
thanks so much — sorry I missed you, glad you liked the book! I loved Melbourne, hope to get back there sooner rather than later …
