I love Australian Brands Part II (and Aussie beaches!)

Forever 21 Beatles shirt
Rayban Sunglasses
Wrap Belt (from Europe)

Hi all! You guys are soooo sweet. Reading your comments have once again put smiles on my faces. You have really helped bring my passion back for blogging and now I'm back on the blog wagon :)

Today it was a beautiful day in Ettalong, had some chilled out time at the local beach. It's so peaceful there, a quiet beach with people fishing and boating. And it's Winter as well, so its an added bonus we get a chance to enjoy the sand, sun and water.

I love the beach, especially in Australia. When its a hot sunny day, there's nothing better than missing the sun peak hours (10am - 2pm) and heading out to the beaches at 3pm. The sun is less stronger, people start to leave, and you get to watch the sun set (behind us). And we always get good old fish & chips and lie in the sun until we get baked. There's nothing like the feeling of just.. doing... nothing.

Do you guys love the beach too?

Today I am casual, barefoot so I can feel the sand between my toes. My split maxi has such a unique print, and its another Australian branded garment. I love the floaty fabric and the way the skirt drifts with the wind. And I love The Beatles, my shirt is my tribute. :)


xx Natalie

    of course I love the beach and you are so lucky because you can chill there :) (there is like over 100 km to the beach from where I live)
    and the outfit is also so cool, perfect for the beach (Y) especially I love the skirt :)

    What a great nautical look! I never know how to dress for the beach because I'm afraid of getting my clothes dirty so I usually prance around in the typical shorts & tank. The maxi's a fabulous look though!

    Sincerely,
    Sabrina

    I too love Japanese food. And my favorite designers are the Australian designers - Australian fashion week is, in my opinion, the best. This skirt is amazing!
