Through our recent Charity T-Shirt collaboration with Take3 we have come across some pretty inspiring humans out there in the world. One of them is this total babe Alaire Davis. Hailing from Bermuda but on a global mission to help save the world from domination by plastic, Alaire runs the instagram account @plasticfreebabe as a way in which to share her love for the ocean and preach what the horrific effect of plastic is having on our oceans, the fish and environment. She's one clued up lady and we recently sat down with her for 5 and grilled her on the topic. Read on my friends....

I recently found this delicious recipe over on my friends blog 'Ashleigh Jade' and couldn't wait to try them. I'm a sucker for a good bliss ball and these Beetroot versions did not disappoint! They're healthy, look pretty spesh and totally more-ish. Get ready to get some super red hands & try this epic Bliss ball recipe out. 

Meet our Pal St. Gerard, the patron of expectant mothers! Mr Gerard was born in Italy and lived a short but meaningful life. His prayers today are sought for the children, unborn children, women in childbirth, mothers, expectant mothers & motherhood, hallelujah ladies! (It also helps that this little guy is extremely good looking in all it's round form!)

St Gerard was said to be responsible for a number of miracles throughout his life but his legend lives on for one particular miracle that relates to a woman in labor (Let's be honest... we're all hoping for miracles at that time!)

"St Anthony, St Anthony, where are my keys!?"

Believe it or not, this is a tune of my upbringing. Despite not being brought up in a religious household per say, St Anthony was a Patron Saint I was fairly aware of you might say.  His name was constantly being called upon for the most random of common household goods that had been lost, in hope that he would help us return them. Saint Anthony is said to be the guru behind many a miracles performed during his lifetime & for helping one find everything and anything from lost souls to lost shoes. Thank goodness for me, I've known about this guy for many years now and I'm stoked to now be able to wear him around my neck, how about you kid?

It's here! We've made it to Summer and now it’s time to think about that impending Summer Holiday!

Now all you need to do know is get that suit case prepped....Uh hem.

Below we have listed 13 essentials to pack on your next beach vacation and we’ve even got a free downloadable packing list to help you while you’re at it! Keep reading my friend...

Our latest collection SANTA CHIARA welcomes a collection of 5 legendary Patron Saints from well before our time... We don't hear too much about them in today's world but these Saints are kind of like the Lady Gaga of 2017, Beyonce of 2018 or Angelina Jolie of 2015?... You get my drift.

We wanted to share with you a little more on why these guys rock and, why they are part of our new SANTA CHIARA collection. Today, we shed a little light on the legend St. Francis of Assisi who is the patron saint of animals & environment (Well well well, 2 of our favourite things eh, must have been quite the guy!)

Road trips may not be the quickest way from point A to point B, but they’re undoubtedly the best way to see a lot of amazing places in a short amount of time. Road trips, if done correctly, can be packed full of adventures and marvellous discoveries that you would otherwise would never get a chance to see. Here are two of my favorite great American road trips!

It's fair to say that since moving to Bali, this 'Poke' concept has played a large part in my life. With all the fresh vegetables (and fish) available here on the island, it's also fair to say that some of the best Poke I have ever had is here in Bali! Being a vegetarian is no issue, with many a Poke places serving up Veggie style Poke bowls that leave even the tuna-consumer asking to try! Here are my 3 favourite places in Bali to get my Poke fix.... I wouldn't plan a trip to the island without stopping at one of these! 

She's the jewellery styling queen and has nailed it with our collaboration collection. Check out these beautiful photo's and see how Bek chose to layer the new collection in her own style and get inspired to start stacking your necklaces. x
