I have lived on the coast of New South Wales (Australia) for many years and love the coastal, surf and beach life. I have spent a lot of time in Hawaii and love the atmosphere, the tropical scents and the colour. There is such a great holiday feeling to the islands.  My family also have a lifelong interest in surfing and it's origins in the islands of Hawaii.  We have also spent time onother tropical islands. 

Some years ago my husband and I (with some friends) built a small resort in Samoa - Sa'Moana Resort. We have both spent a lot of time in Samoa and have grown to love the people, their amazing culture and handicrafts.

As a result of our travels and the beautiful jewellery and interesting handicrafts we have seen I decided to start importing some of these products. I felt that the easiest way to reach the biggest number of people and keep the prices competitive was to do this via the internet. So I set up Island Style Designs - www.islandstyle.net.au

We can't all live on a tropical island but we can feel as though we do. What I aim to do is bring the tropical life, the casual relaxed lifestyle, as well as some incredible handicrafts and some of the history of surfing to you.
