I know I said yesterday that I was posting my final installment of my Christmas Gift Guide series, but then I got talking to fellow Gold Coast blogger, the gorgeous Liss from Daydream Lily and we decided to do one more for your viewing pleasure!

I love Liss’ edit of goodies from local artists and designers, and have my eye on the Hanna print by her very talented sister Bec Winnel and the Molten Store bracelet. Simplicity with an edge – just the way I like it.

3 // Lily Piri Deer Phone Skin
4 // Lobo Luxe Astrid Pendant
5 // Golden Ink Watermelon Ring with Triangle Detail6 // Kit Cosmetics Christmas in My Kitchen Kit
