FAVOURITE FINDS | Swimwear by Scotch Shrunk

When shopping swimwear for boys there always seem to be a few boxes to tick before we put them in our shopping baskets.  

A - how is the waist!? (who hasn't come home with a pair of swimmers that just fall off their little bums in the water..anyone? hands up over here.. and let's face it, giving the kid a plumbers bum look isn't working no matter how stylish the print is).  
B - Are they comfy!? How's the fabric, soft enough to go commando in or do you need undies to wear these?
C - How rad is the print and will the little guy love it? We always tend to pick prints that really stand out (always handy on a crowded beach or pool area when you are keeping an eye out so they are easy to spot).

These boardies by Scotch Shrunk ticks all three boxes and have such a lovely summer feel to them. They even come with a handy little pouch in swim material so when it's time to head for home after a day at the beach you got somewhere to put them to avoid the rest of the beach bag getting wet!

I can't say it has been many opportunities so far this summer but last weekend the kiddos had a chance to enjoy the water for an evening dip. Hoping with the upcoming summer holiday there will be more of these opportunities. Finally jumping on a plane to visit NSW and a chance to see Sydney up close. If you got any great hang outs to visit feel free to comment below :)

Hello Summer | Missie Munster

To continue with our run up for summer over here, I am posting another hello summer favourite, Missie Munster swimwear! Missie Munster the sister to Munster, has come out with some really nice swimwear again. Here are two of my favourites from this SS13 collection (which I wouldn't mind wearing myself!). I am loving the tones, the patterns and the pure feeling of summer which both suits has. I can see a lot of lazy afternoons on the beach in these!

You can find the suits here: (if in search for a certain size, let me know and I might be able to find it for you, just leave a comment below).

Hello Summer | Swim suits

With summer around the corner (yes I keep whispering those words to myself, especially when Spring is behaving badly and giving us rain and cold winds) I thought I would share my favourite beach wear for both boys and girls. With kids growing from year to year it is sometimes necessary to have a look in the wardrobe and realize that the two sizes too small swim suit is perhaps not so charming anymore especially when the bum cheeks are about to fall out.

First out are these two swim suits from Country Road. I am so weak for the zigzag pattern and this red and pink combo is gorgeous. I am equally weak for swans (probably have 4 tops of swans from Danefæ in our wardrobe) so  this lovely white and blue swim suit is also high on our list.
