Peony swimwear


holy moly summer is literally around the corner.
which means suns out, buns out.
(so to speak)
Peony swimwear is my go to choice this year for the best bikini :)
I love founder Becky's brand philosophy...

Growing up, I always knew it was summer when my Nan's peonies began to bloom. peony swimwear (pronounced pee-oh-nee) was born out of my life-long love affair with the beach. Uncomplicated, natural and effortless style forms the philosophy behind the brand which is inspired by summer's simple joys - diving into the ocean, the smell of coconut oil, the taste of a banana Paddle Pop and the joy of being surrounded by the people you love. I believe the happiest memories are made under the sun.
All peony swimwear is handmade with love in Australia using the most luxurious Italian Lycra. Each collection is built upon exclusive prints, dreamy colour palettes and fluid silhouettes with a focus on superior quality and fit. Understated and wearable swimwear is at the forefront of peony's vision. Never fussy or overdone, peony is a swimwear label for the quintessential down-to-earth Australian girl, who spends her days with sandy feet and salty hair.






which would you choose?

city lane











hello city lane... I do like to visit you on the weekends!
Townsville has a new little scene in the form of city arcade.
This makes me very happy because there are things like prawn tacos
and old school hotdogs andddd pulled pork nachos.
never thought i would say it but i am so into shredded pork??
am i new to this world or what.
anyway. I keep wanting to drag people here... 
there is also a paelo cafe if you aren't into pulled pork, but whatever.

A few well chosen bit and bobs and you are on your way.

speaking of guests, 4 sleeps until my Mum arrives in Sunny NQ
