oh hi there

Hello out there!

my little corner of the blogosphere has been missing in action for almost a year now...

naughty blogger that I am

BUT I feel it's time to get things rolling again... !

It has been a crazy couple of months what with buying (and renovating) a house

and turning our little duo into a family of three.

yep. baby is on board now.

This August we welcomed little Mila Joy into the world, 

so maybe that makes me a mummy blogger now. he he.

anyway. I am back people!

new content coming soon,

Oh how I've missed you!

it's friday again

happy friday peeps!

gosh these weeks just keep rolling on by...

hope everyone has a fantastic weekend.

love joy

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?
