On Monday morning we are off to Fiji for some much needed R&R and escape from the Sydney winter.  I am SO excited that in preparation I have found some amazing tropical inspired items to share with you ...to wear, to eat, and for your home of course!


I love this fabulous little holiday dress above from zara and cute tangarine shoes from sambag

If a tropical holiday is not in the plan just now, then here is some lovely recipe ideas from gourmet traveller
to make you feel a little closer to paradise. Some tangy and refreshing passionfruit curd for the perfect ice-cream accompaniment or some mango yoghurt sorbet with tropical fruit ....yum! The lovely layers of crisp meringue with fruit and a dollop of fresh cream makes a beautiful vacherin...
