Yes, it's back this year by popular demand - Melbourne foodies all over town are hanging out for Heat Beads Hawkers' Market. Here you can build your tasting plate with dishes from Melbourne's top Asian chefs. We love the crashing woks, flying noodles and dumpling makers. Most of all, we love how it all happens under gorgeous lantern light.

You can't help but smile when you see the amazing jewellery pieces from Princess C, Lady J & the Upper Crust. It's the super-talented Melbourne pair Coconut and Jessica who are behind the unique range. Using resin and hand-dyed colours, they make brooches with attitude. Each one also comes with a super name like Maude the T-Rex. We've put our order in on Moose: Art for Living already.

Here's another hot LoveBento tip from our loveable contributors... What Melbourne band is gaining a big underground following? They're called Autumn Gray and they've just released their debut album The Diary of a Falling Man. You can check out their music on their website and download 3 songs for free - nice. But the word is they're best seen live, and performing all over Melbourne and Geelong right now... love!

Gone are the days of the brick phone...or are they? Exovault have created metal iPhone cases that make your iPhone square, chunky and super retro. Handcrafted from solid metal, their philosophy is 'to take phones away from the plastic world'. Hand built with care by the artists in Brooklyn NY and available to buy online, we can't wait to see them popping up all over Melbourne... chunky love.
