WANDERLUST \\ VILLA LA BANANE

It's a rainy and miserable night in the middle of Sydney's winter so I'm imagining myself here instead... the whimsically decorated 1950's style bungalows of Villa La Banane, nestled in the heart of a coconut grove on the Caribbean island of St Bart's.

Each of the beautifully light and breezy bungalows surround the lush tropical gardens and sparkling pool where you can laze away the day sipping cocktails under the coconut trees. But what I really love best is the mix of white louvers, the lush greenery and the pop of golden yellow re-creating an air vintage Caribbean luxury.

window shopping: anthropologie

Anthropologie has been one of my favourite stores for quite a while now but it wasn't until earlier this year that I got to physically walk through the doors and breathe-in the real Anthropologie in all it's amazingly merchandised glory. I wanted to buy everything in the store, but unfortunately my suitcase (and credit card) wouldn't suffice to get it all home, so instead I settled on just one item, the Valise leather journal above. It's so pretty i'm actually scared to write in it.

In a perfect world where baggage limits didn't exist or Anthropologie opened it's doors in Australia, here are some of my must-have items.
