aussie beach chic


in my travels around sydney this week i have discovered  a definite decorating style - 'aussie beach chic'. many small interior design-style shops have opened in the suburbs of sydney that are full of gorgeous and quirky home-wares to suit the casual australian beach lifestyle. 


there is a mixture of old and new with a great retro feel,


lots of candles, lanterns and both Asian and Indian artifacts 

this French farmhouse table looks fab with the wooden bowls and glass jars of coral


i love the stone colour of the Buddha displayed with the grey patterned fabric cushions, oversized lampshades and the white earthenware vases

this window display caught my eye - more for the chinese style shelving than the selection of objects 

and this little boutique, with it's fire engine red door, planter box and shade awning was just the cutest
