Boho Bird





Jeans- Saba (similar here)
Top- Zara (similar here)
Sandals- thanks to Misano Shoes
Boho Bird tunic/jacket- thanks to Birdsnest
Sunnies- Rayban (similar here)

If you love Nina Proudman's style from Australian drama Offspring (who doesn't!) I think Birdsnest's recently launched label, Boho Bird is for you.  It's a range that embraces that whimsical bohemian look so beautifully.  Think tops and dresses with smoldering touches of embroidery and lace, cosy knits in flattering shapes, long romantic skirts, and the most romantic dresses all in muted feminine colours.

Here I am wearing the Boho Bird tunic/jacket.  I love this colour and the lace detailing makes it such a unique piece; also perfect for layering, especially now we are in Autumn.  I could picture Nina wearing this jacket over a fitted top of any colour, long scarf, jeans, vintage belt and her tan or blue suede knee high boots.

Lifestream Body Treatments


There's no doubt about it, these Lifestream products are really beautiful to use.  One look at the ingredients list of any of these and you know you've found something special.  I can actually recognise everything on the list!!  Something that is a real rarity these days.  Ingredients include coconut oil, macadamia oil, olive oil, avocado oil, lanolin, jojoba oil, shea nut butter, cocoa butter, aloe vera, evening primrose oil and rosehip oil.  All amazing on their own but when combined in Lifestream's range they are even more amazing.

My baby boy has quite bad keratosis pilaris on his face, and arms, and I found the Baby Butter just the thing to soothe this skin condition and lessen the bumpy appearance.  Knowing there was no nasty chemicals in this product I've been extremely happy to slather this on him, face and all.  

The Coconut Sea Salt Scrub is divine, so refreshing, great smelling and left my skin feel moisturised.  The Massage Balm is quite solid in its container but melts into your skin with a lovely lavender fragrance.  The Eye Balm is quite light and beautifully hydrating and who doesn't love a lip balm especially when it's comes in a beaut little tin.

Lifestream Body Treatments is an Australian owned and Sydney based company that is committed to providing the average Aussie girl with natural body products of the highest quality at a reasonable price.  All products and ingredients are made and sourced right here in Australia, with the containers made from the most environmentally packaging materials available.  They are accredited Choose Cruelty Free (no animal testing), and up to 10% of profits to Water of Life, a charity helping disadvantaged women.  A winning product on all fronts, and highly recommended by me.

Misano

 
Top- French Connection (similar monochrome version here)
Jeans- Ziggy (similar here)
Sunnies- Sportsgirl (similar here)

I bought this top (on sale!) while I was pregnant the year before last, optimistically in my original dress size and finally I can fit in it. Hoorah!! Love a little stripe and peplum action.  These ballet flats are new in from Misano Shoes, and are part of their Winter 2014 collection.  Such a classy shoe, plus they all leather and so cushioned and comfy.
