ALL THINGS TRAVEL, RAD PEOPLE, TROPICAL LIVING & LIFE IN BALI
A delicious take on the old Kiwi / Australian favourite, the 'ANZAC biscuits', Sophie Fisher from @coconutandbliss blog has shared her Anzac favourite recipe with us. If you're reading this and thinking WTF are ANZAC biscuits (Ie. You're not from New Zealand or Australia!) let me tell you here and now, you have been missing out you're entire life my friends
Our Lunacita Alden Easter has recently launched her guide to the 30A area – a beautiful beach area along the coast of Florida. While I have not (yet) visited, she sure does make a good case that we all SHOULD be visiting this beautiful section of the US. We took 5 to catch up with Alden to hear all about it..
Sophie Fisher is the legend behind @coconutandbliss and the co-designer in our latest collaboration collection (that we’re not-so-quietly OBSESSED with.) I’m sure you’re already a follower of her adventures and delicious cooking over on her instagram but we wanted to catch up and chat a little more in depth with her, find out what gives her jump in her step and her blender whizzing!
Our Bali Best Eats series of blog posts gives you a little heads up on where we're currently crushing, where you will most likely find us working annnddd what food we can't go a week without ( we are so incredibly spoilt - I know!) Today in the spotlight is one of my long-time personal favourites just down the road from us.
Come in and find out why we absolutely LOVE Two Trees Eatery in Berawa and what keeps us coming back.... week after week. x
One of the first things we learnt in our fashion school lab (Yes, we wore lab coats & studied in ‘textile labs’!) was how to tell the difference between a fabric that is derived from nature and one that is man made. To make it really simple and fast forward a few lab tests & goggle selfies I will cut to the chase. Fabrics are either made from Plants (Natural ie Cotton, Linen, Ramie, Wool), Made from plastics (Man made ie Nylon, Polyester), or are a blend of both of these two.
Who better to let you in on the hot spots and must do's in a new area than a resident local? While I've visited Florida many many moons ago, I would say my time there resonated more with.... ah hem.... drinking too many mojito's and long sandy nights partying. And while South Beach is 100% the spot to drink, party, get up to mischief and nude midnight swims, I'm dying to go back and explore more of Florida (And see more in the daylight). For those of us ready to explore this State, we asked our lunacita Natalie Zacek what her top five MUST visit spots in Florida are. Here goes!
Mariah & Michael Buble are on repeat…. A flurry of express shipped orders have been sent out to some lucky ladies and our Summer bod’s are well….ahem….. they’re on their way….
Who doesn't love an espresso Martini?
There are so many ways you can make this caffeinated concoction, and thankfully more and more bartenders are learning how to mix it here in the states (Amen to the Aussies doing them so well for so long!) Read on for Alden's favorite at home recipe and get the party started!
We caught up with our lunacita Alden Easter and chatted all things Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving day is always full of delicious food, spending time with family, and traditions that have been passed down for years. In my family, we spend Thanksgiving all together and enjoy a relaxing day (usually full of a lot of football too!) I am here to highlight my favorite parts of thanksgiving and tell you how I like to celebrate Turkey day!
She is the designer of our new Island Store prints, and she did it well. Today let’s have 5 minutes with the talented Lily Windsor Walker. When I first meet Lily, it was on Instagram. I was scrolling and scrolling until I find this beautiful account with a lot of prints pictures. I immediately fell in love with these prints and I was like ‘OMG I want to collaborate with this girl!’ With a lot of project in mind I knew that it would match. And that’s happened!
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!)
We recently welcomed Natalie to the Lunacita ambassador programme. We wanted to find out a little more about her and your lifestyle, where she's from and all that jazz! So here goes, say hello to the lovely Natalie Zacek...
I'm sure you have probably already seen our recent launch of our CHARITY T-SHIRTS. Recently our head designer, Rosie designed 4 T-Shirts to unite together and help raise awareness around the Global Plastic Pollution crisis.
We caught up with the lengends behind the Non-profit and asked them a few questions about the work they do, how they are making waves around the awareness of this huge global issue and what we can do to help guide our planet to a better future. Read on & get inspired x
We're pretty stoked on our new collection of Patron Saint Necklace Pendants, and today we thought you might like to get to know the Patron Saint Nicholas a little better.... You may have already heard of him before but, why is he so rad & such a 'Saint'? Step this way my friends....
