Beachy Keen

 


Finally sharing all the beautiful pictures from a recent mother/daughter staycation at Points North on the Gold Coast, where we took leisurely lunches & late dinners, got up at daybreak & walked for miles & miles along pristine sections of sand, dipped our toes in the water of no less than 5 different beaches & checked out all the little boutiques dotted along the main street for good measure! Scroll down to see how it all unfolded...





Admiring the view from our balcony in a pair of indigo denim shorts from Best & Less, a gorgeous white broderie cotton top with ruffles from my local TK Maxx store & some trusty brown vegan leather sandals by Blowfish Malibu that I picked up from Williams Shoes...





Lunch at one of our all-time favourites, George's Paragon...
I even had a refreshing Pimms cocktail!






Dancing in the sand at Coolangatta beach in my new swimming togs from Jantzen (slightly pictured) & beautiful striped cotton/linen blend dress from Kindred Boutique...




Waking up to rainy skies that quickly gave way to bright sunshine!




Long walks around Greenmount Hill wearing another trusty pair of jean shorts - this time in an acid wash - from Best & Less, a blue & white striped top with bows down the front from TK Maxx, a pair of white leather Birkenstock sandals, woven paper crossbody bag from Esteem's Boutique at The Strand & a woven sunhat from Before Sunset that I've had for at least 15 years now...







Delicious breakfast burger & hash brown (washed down with a cold chai latte) from Boardriders...



Rainbow Bay when the sun shines...



Can't resist a mother/daughter selfie!


Froggy's Beach


Walking up to Point Danger



Fresh & spicy Japanese seafood dinner from OSushi Restaurant... it's a must for us whenever we stay at the Gold Coast!




After dinner walks along North Kirra beach as the sun sets wearing a pair of indigo denim shorts (in a slightly more cropped style) from Target, a blue cotton top embroidered with cream sea creatures from TK Maxx, a pair of rubber thongs from Roxy & the same woven paper bag from Esteem's to carry all the essentials with me, including my faux tortoiseshell Witchery sunglasses...







Another day, another denim shorts look - this time, indigo denim shorts from Best & Less, blue & white striped cotton top with black paisley design from cult favourite Gorman, a pair of brown vegan leather sandals from Blowfish Malibu & the woven paper crossbody from Esteems' Boutique to round it all out...



Sweet treats from Griffith St Larder...






Long afternoon walks wearing acid wash denim shorts from Best & Less, white broderie cotton ruffled top from TK Maxx, white leather Birkenstock sandals, blue woven paper crossbody bag & woven sunhat from Before Sunset...




Dinner for two at George's Paragon...



Can't resist a cheeky ice cream for dessert from Baskin Robbins... no mint choc chip, unfortunately...


Night Lights




Those final morning feels on Greenmount Beach in (yet again) a pair of indigo denim shorts from Best & Less, the blue & white striped cotton top with puff sleeves & bows from TK Maxx, no shoes (just how I like it at the beach) & woven paper Esteem's Boutique crossbody bag...
