Indonesian Brands and Summer Must-Haves
Friday Finds. 05
Hi hi live from Bali! This week has been incredible to see so many new brands in person and try on some very cool pieces. So without further ado here is everything on my wish list this week (some already purchased).
Miranda Top
This top immediately caught my eye when I walked into Magali Pascal. The embroidery is so intricate but the fit is relaxed giving that effortless, elegant look.
Seraya Espresso Sandal
Saw these sandals in almost every boutique, so I asked one of the shop assistants about them. Turns out ISAH is a newly founded Australian/Indonesian brand (how cool!). I really love strappy toe because it gives the impression you are wearing heels but they’re flats.
Verena Mini Dress Green
I visited the Faithfull store in Bali this week and fell in love with everything! I ended up purchasing the most beautiful black top and one piece swimsuit, but this dress is still on my wish list. It reminds me of a dress I tried on at the end of last year from Reformation.
Eden Bikini Top and Bottom
Faithfull also does luxe swimwear, and I particularly love this bikini set. The burnt orange looks perfect against my tan (yet somehow still pale) skin. And for an added bonus, it’s made from a 100% blend of recycled materials.
Escape Underwire One Piece
One piece swimsuits do not have to be boring, and ELCE is a brand that understands this. ELCE is an Australian brand and you can find stores in Canggu and Uluwatu.
The Inca Bucket Hat
My one regret is not buying this hat in Bali. Ani and I were so in love but for some reason couldn’t convince ourselves that we would actually wear it back home (we totally would). It’s such a cutie fit and a raffia sun hat never goes out of style. Also Lack Of Colour is such a great brand - I’ve been meaning to buy from them.
The Iro Studded Thong | Silver
Something about a silver shoe really makes an outfit. Wearing all black? A silver heel (or in this case, a thong) completes the look. As we all know, I love a trusty flip flop. These from The Bali Tailor are so fun with the studded strap.
One Shoulder Draped Top
Another Indonesian brand, Design by Omo, has the perfect oversized, slouchy off the shoulder top. If you’re on a summer vacation you defs need some colour in your wardrobe!
Pose Top
This romantic set is from an Indonesian brand called gemme. It’s the perfect top for a dinner out overlooking the ocean. Very delicate and very feminine.
Now for some non-Summer items that are on my wish list bc I can’t help but keep shopping:
Doppio Button-up
I recently wrote about The Overthought in my Aussie Brands (Menswear Edition) and couldn’t stop thinking about this shirt. It has the perfect cropped fit, made from 100% cotton, and my brother happens to be going to Europe this summer, so I made the purchase!
Carnot Coat
Saw this beautiful check stripe coat on Instagram. In all honesty I’m not usually drown to a blue and red stripe but the colours feel perfectly balanced and the frog buttons are just so elegant.
Hope you were able to gain some inspiration on what to pack/ what to look for when shopping in Bali - see you next week!
