Some basic clothes and shoes you'll need for Melbourne and where you can buy them in Melbourne for cheap

Generally you'd try to bring all the things from your home country but if you forgot something here's where you can buy it.

Underwear- there is a Bendon factory outlet in Richmond and in Collingwood.

Sneakers- Sketchers at DFO has Sneakers for about $30-$60 and they are pretty funky shoes which can double as street shoes. Students wear sneakers for class mainly because they are so comfortable.

A jacket for all seasons- I got mine on special from Rivers for $25.

Footless tights/leggings - At Target they are $10 each and you can wear this with anything
Jeans- A t DFO and during the sales you usually buy 2 for $100.

T-shirts- these are everywhere and you buy them for between $10-$25.

A maxi dress- you can find them in vintage shops for about $15-$20 per dress

Pajamas- you can buy a set for $39.95 from Target. But it is better to bring your own from home.
Tracksuit- you can buy them from any sports store

Bathing suits- you can buy them from Seafolly for $89.95. But I recommend buying them in store rather than online as you can try them on in store before you buy and get some assistance

Thongs- In Australia we love to wear thongs out especially in summer. You can buy these at all surf shops for $24.95.

A hat for the warmer weather- you can get them for free from your university at Orientation day.

Socks- At Myer you can buy these for $7-$8 if they are on Special.

A suit for formal occasions- Suits are generally really expensive here about $100-$700 altogether so it generally is better to bring it from home. But if you must buy it from here you could buy it fro MYER or online. Most students just go casual at uni, but if you have a presentation then no.
Sunglasses- now you can buy them for $10 but they might just get broken by the second time you wear them, so it is best to buy a good quality pair of sunglasses.
