As a growing bohemian brand, we're always seeking new opportunities to partner with likeminded fashionistas around the globe, whether it's here on the Gold Coast, elsewhere in Australia, or across Europe, Asia, the States, you name it.

Luckily we found the perfect California beach babe, Melody Wright of Tan Lines Bikini Blog, who naturally complements our laid back boho style and shares our love of sandy summertime adventures. Take a look at her recent shoot below, and find her on Instagram at @_gypseaa. 

California Love

Endlessly stereotyped for its abundance of surfer dudes, celebrity culture, beach babes and freeway lingo, Southern California is much more than that, though those things still hold a ring of truth. 

Style Spotlight: Melly the Gypsea

Located in Oceanside, California, Melody gives us major beach vibe envy in our latest 'Hidden Valley' Collection.

What She's Wearing: Wynter Dress in Cherryripe

Perfect for a morning brunch date with friends or a leisurely walk along the shore scouting for seashells, our Wynter Mini Dress combines playful movement with brilliant colouring. 

What She's Wearing: Delilah Skirt in Strawberries & Cream

For a more whimsical, breezy option, we love pairing our Delilah Maxi Skirt with a bikini top for a low maintenance summertime look.

We're loving her California beauty in these shots, and can't wait to hit the road later this month to our own beachy getaway in beautiful Hawaii!
