It's not everyday that exploring leads you to finding your new favorite place. Today I show my private idyllic paradise, in my suitably Safari-esque bow-tie shirt and sand shorts combo.

With creamy, soft sands and an aqua clear ocean, you would think this beach would be more crammed than a London tube train. Think again! Jake and I had this luscious beach all to our-lucky-selves!
Dotted on a scary dirt road (argh- the poor car), just north of Cape Tribulation (QLD, Australia) is my new private haven. I was tempted to just pitch a tent here and spend my whole life as some dirty-beach-lovin' hippy, but I think I'm a bit too princessy high maintenance. Plus: this area has a high salt water crocodile population and marine stingers. Grr! I guess other animals wanna live somewhere warm and beautiful too!
For my day exploring I donned my white Zara layered top. I am obsessed with the key hole neckline at the moment and I love how this one is embellished with a pussy bow. I added my Indiana-Jones style sand shorts and kept sweaty hair at bay with my trusty fedora.
And can we just take a moment to oogle over the sheer beauty of this bag? It's so beachy, and boho, yet not too in your face. I honestly think that if I had been a bag, I would have been this one and I had to have it. I picked it up in a cute, little, boutique; don't you think that these little stores are sometimes like treasure chests?
Looking at these photos, I bet anyone who saw us would have thought I was some sort of crazy lunatic dressing up so much for a rain forest adventure. But my motto is; who cares? Wear what makes you feel great! Life is too short for ugly clothes!

P.S. I'm working on one of my classic New York Fashion Week cheat sheets! I'll get it up and running as soon as I get rid of this grotty respiratory infection. C'mon white blood cells: do your thing!
