Howdy!
My name is Cara, I am 20 years old and I live in South Australia, Australia!
By day I work for the Police over here as a Administration Assistant. I have a brother and a sister who are both teenagers. I love my parents who I live with at the moment, while saving to buy my own home : )
I love the summer and sun and all things thrifty and vintage!
I enjoy attending op shops, markets, garage sales. One thing I would LOVE to experience would be going to some excellent estate sales in America.
I love vintage costume jewellery and buy alot of it from America and the UK, as it is in very short supply over here is Aus :(
If anyone would like to trade costume jewellery, drop me a line!
