Hello lovelies!
In today’s post I’ll be sharing with you my top picks for june and the month we’ve just entered. I’d say I’ve discovered some real gems this time around!
Enjoy the post and I hope you’ll feel inspired x
Featured above is the La Boheme set from ethically produced swimwear brand Peony Swimwear, alongside issue 96 of the Frankie Magazine and an array of beautiful phone cases by etsy creator Rianna Phillips.
La Boheme set:
I absolutely cannot get enough of vintage inspired florals. The La Boheme set was created sustainably with a classic silhouette and calm, neutral pattern. Swimwear is now being viewed as a core part of our wardrobes, especially in places like Australia, my home, where beach and coastal lifestyles are revered. Peony swimwear have a wide range of stockists meaning that you are more likely to get your perfect style and fit. Peony uses entirely recyclable fabrics and packages with biodegradable pouches. One of their best features, in my humble opinion, is the mix and match feature. All separates in the Peony swimwear collection are designed to be worn not just with their match, but with other pieces and prints. Peony swimwear is currently working on a plan to start a repair and reuse program where customers can return previous season pieces to be altered or turned into something new. I find the La Boheme set to be so chic- it’s minimalist and the fuller coverage provides more modesty than your average bikini.
Rianna Phillips cases:
Phone cases of all kinds, laptop cases, purses and wallets alike- you name it, Rianna Phillips creates it. I’m not one for anything bright or extravagant and this extends to phone cases- I previously had a cheap clear case but then decided to upgrade and have just invested in a faux leather personalised case! Gold initials against an ivory white leather look case just sounds so dreamy. Perhaps a slight tactile experience too! I’ve had personal experience buying from Rianna’s etsy store in the past and can’t commend her enough on her wonderful customer service. She is approachable, friendly and instantly makes you feel at ease. You can tell that she is passionate about design and creating a product that everyone will love.
Frankie Magazine, issue 96:
How could I not include the latest issue of Frankie magazine? I’ve adored and fawned over their pages for years now and have amassed quite the impressive collection of current and previous issues. This month’s magazine is a bumper issue and comes with extra goodies, so I figured it was worth another mention. I’m wondering at this point what celebrations will be underway once the 100th issue of the magazine is released. You can buy individual copies or sign up for an annual subscription and have the magazine delivered to your door bimonthly. Frankie Magazine, much like myself, write about art, craft, design, fashion, food, interiors, life, photography, music and travel. They have other beautiful publications released that include “look what we made,” a collection of maker stories and “spaces” which is chock full of interior inspiration and tells the story of some exceptionally innovative individuals.
I enjoyed reading this post Maryam! Those phone cases are so cute and that swimset looks so pretty and perfect for Summer! 💗
Aren’t they just? Such a dreamy summer mood! x
I loved this post Maryam! The bikini set is super cute!
Thank you Alexandrina! So pretty, isn’t it? Made all the better by their focus on sustainability.
Sending love! Thanks for reading x
Your picture editing is on point as always! I love the set from La Boheme – I’m actually a really big fan of vintage cuts for swimwear! xx
You’re too sweet! Thanks Mia. I agree with you on that- I find vintage cuts to be really classy and much nicer than other swimwear with less coverage.
This edit is so gorgeous, Maryam, I could stare at it for hours. I adore your aesthetic, and that swimwear looks so beautiful! Loved reading this post!
Thank you so much for this beautiful comment Arshia! Isn’t it all just so pretty?
I love that swim suit!!!! The bottoms are my favorite. https://whisperingbutterfly.blogspot.com/
I love the vintage cut! So chic x
Right!! I have a pair just like those but light blue. I love how they rise up on the stomach and they match almost everything.
Those sound so comfy! x
Yes they are and if you want to get some stomach tan all you have to do is fold it down. It’s modest and cute at the same time. Do you have a pair?
Yes, I do! Floral 😊
Nice
yup!
These items are so cute!! Love it!

I’m excited for you when the 100th issue of Frankie mag comes out. I know this magazine means a lot to you and I can almost see the happiness on your face when it comes through the letter box haha. Have you ever considered writing for them? Shoot them an email and you never know – you could have a chance! x
Erin, that is a brilliant idea! I’ve definitely thought about guest writing before but for frankie.. wow! That is the dream! x
You should go for it, Maryam! I’m sure they’d love to have you on. You never know, it could happen. You just have to manifest it <3
I couldn’t have said it better.. anything is possible if you believe, right? (:
That’s what I believe, at least! x

Thank you so much Kelsey!
I’ve been debating on whether or not to get a Frankie subscription for over two years now… I love magazines so much, there’s something about them that a website could never replace. I love holding them and feeling the paper, I love collecting them and looking at past issues. Which is why I have a shit ton of magazines😂 But Frankie seeems to encapsulate topics that I particularly enjoy (love that they include so much art etc.) so I might just have to get my hands on a copy! Great post xx
I always wonder how much time it takes to compile an issue of frankie magazine.. they are always so well done and never fail to interest me! I love the additions of posters and the witty humour across all pages. So much fun for light reading! I like to settle down with a tea or coffee and catch up on a few pages some mornings x
Light reading is the best in the morning! (LARGE cup of coffee for me 😂) Do you know how often they come out with an issue? x
Hehe! Oh my goodness, me always. Frankie magazine release new issues every two months or six times a year!
