Why Ilovelenko

The Lenko Boutique in Melbourne Central is such a treasure trove. They have some of the wittiest, most playful prints and and although all I’ve been able to afford there so far are the uber cool bendy pencils and ice cream tub lipbalms, they have hands-down the best packaging. No gross plastic bags here. The stuff we bought was neatly packed into these foil takeaway containers. I half expected to open them to find succulent lamb meatballs or tandoori chicken like I would in India.

They also sell the best greeting cards. I met the poet at the Spigeltent market and fell in immense like with her work. This one is my favourite. See the rest here and buy some.
