Wishing you a wonderful Christmas Day ♥️🎄 W Wishing you a wonderful Christmas Day ♥️🎄 With love, Claudia +Bobbi ♥️🐾🐾
Here are five delightfully simple things to rememb Here are five delightfully simple things to remember for 2026 ...

1. Love … big, wild and wonderfully messy.
Love yourself first (yes, even the yukky bits). Then let it spill everywhere - on your family, your friends, the dog down the street, the slightly crazy neighbour. 
Love the small stuff - the morning walk with your dog who wants to sniff everything, getting caught in the rain, grocery shopping. Seriously, love is everywhere.
2. Awe … it’s hiding in plain sight.
Find wonder in weird places. Spiderwebs that span trees - aren’t they amazing? 
A child’s uninhibited laughter - priceless. Walking quietly through a forest. 
Magic doesn’t need mountains, it just needs you to notice, pause and enjoy.
3. Curiosity … ask “why?” like a 3 year old.
Follow rabbit holes. Talk to strangers who catch your attention. Learn something utterly useless and love it. Read books about things you know nothing about. Curiosity doesn’t make you foolish, it makes you alive.
4. Laugh … completely, alone, often.
Giggle at nothing. Dance in your kitchen. Smile at yourself in the mirror - why not? Life’s way too short to save laughter for appropriate moments. Let joy be ridiculous and unapologetic.
5. Give … without counting, without keeping score. Give your time. Your smile.  Your attention. A compliment to a stranger. Help without being asked. The beautiful secret? Giving fills you up as much as it does another.
Here’s to 2026 … a year of loving fully, finding wonder, staying curious, laughing freely and giving generously. ✨

To travel with my daughter has been my greatest pleasure and i will be eternally grateful that I have had the opportunity and the privilege.

I’ve been wanting to share this gem for a while I’ve been wanting to share this gem for a while (we were in Morocco back in June), and here it is...
After three days hiking the Atlas Mountains, my daughter and I arrived @kasbahbabourika in the Ourika Valley. We had two nights and didn’t leave once. Not even tempted.
All we wanted was rest and to soak up the tranquility of this extraordinary place.

The décor alone is worth the stay - Moroccan-Berber antiques mixed with vintage radios and typewriters, Art Deco furniture, gorgeous rugs and a private art collection. Nothing was overdone and everything was considered.
And the views. The Atlas Mountains and valley stretched endlessly from every corner of the kasbah, including our room.
I clearly fell in love with the color palette as I couldn’t stop photographing it ... I even bought a dress to remind me of how I felt while we were here. ✨
Thank you to Jaouad @infinite.morocco for arranging our stay.

Random pearls on a loose string from @jane_juwelry Random pearls on a loose string from @jane_juwelry. No clasp, no structure, no “right” way to wear them.

I wrap them around my neck however they fall and love that they’re different every time. 
Right now, I’m drawn to things that are playful, relaxed, imperfectly beautiful.

Jewellery that doesn’t ask to be worn correctly? That’s exactly my mood. ✨

Wishing you a beautiful Friday xx

My darling Bobbi turned 11 this week. That’s 60 My darling Bobbi turned 11 this week. That’s 60 in human years, which means she’s officially entered her elegant senior era and frankly, she’s absolutely nailing it.

She still has the appetite of a Great Dane, swings her hips like a true Cuban (Bobbi is a Havanese), demands attention like a two-year-old and trots rather than walks.  Not one grey hair either.

But there have been changes.  She sleeps.  A lot.  She does aloof to the point of rudeness, is defiant when asked to do something (like stop) and persistent to the point of annoying when she wants something (like treats).

Eleven years of unconditional love, ridiculous amounts of cuteness and daily reminders that joy really is found in the simplest things—like the sound of me turning coming home.

Happy birthday, my beautiful girl. Here’s to many more years of you teaching me what really matters.

Last night, three men devastated our community. I Last night, three men devastated our community.

I feel the grief deeply today, yet I want to hold onto the memory of how people came together with courage, compassion and immediate care for one another. To always remind me that goodness will always triumph.

We must choose love over hate. 

Connection over division. Kindness over fear.

Bondi has always been about joy, happiness and looking out for each other. 

Today, that matters more than ever.

The ancient medina, Fes el-Bali, sprawls across ov The ancient medina, Fes el-Bali, sprawls across over 9,000 winding alleyways - narrow passages where donkeys carry goods and every turn reveals another hidden courtyard or workshop. 
We spent four nights wandering, tasting, learning, and left completely mesmerised.

What you need to know:
• Get a local guide. The maze is beautiful but genuinely confusing and you will get lost. Google Maps will not help you.
• Book a cooking class with Chef Loubna @palaisamani.

Let Fez get under your skin. It certainly did for us and we loved every moment. ✨. Our wonderful adventures and stays were organised by Jaouad @infinite.morocco

As my wonderful website designer is busily working As my wonderful website designer is busily working on Power of Etiquette, I find myself reflecting on what I want to bring into the world.

My hope? To share my knowledge and training to help people navigate life with more kindness, respect, grace and genuine confidence.
There’s so much I want to do and it’s overwhelming.  So I’m taking it bit by bit.  One conversation at a time.

Today’s question: What’s the difference between Grace and Etiquette?

Grace is how you move through the world when you’re genuinely at ease with yourself.  It’s being kind when no one’s watching,  apologising when you’re wrong,  extending understanding even when it’s not required. 
Grace flows from within.

Etiquette is the framework that helps us show respect to others.  It’s knowing how to navigate any situation with confidence and poise ... not just at gala events, but in everyday moments. Whether it’s a first date, popping into the supermarket, catching the train or starting a conversation with someone new ... just to mention a few. 
Etiquette is the practical expression of respect.

You can have perfect etiquette without grace, but true grace always includes consideration for others - which is the heart of etiquette.

The magic is when they work together.

What do you think - are they different or two sides of the same coin?
I’d love to know your thoughts.

Last week I treated myself to a facial with the lo Last week I treated myself to a facial with the lovely Pippa @skinbypippajames and I’m still floating.

It has been a very long time since I’d had a proper hands-on facial - no lasers, no machines, just skilled hands and beautiful products. I remember these from years ago and how they left me feeling calm and peaceful.  Pippa’s Holistic Sculpt with Buccal Face Treatment was extraordinary. I walked out glowing inside and out.

What made it different -  it works on your whole system, not just your skin. It shifts you into that rest and heal state and that’s where the real magic happens.
My treatment included some brilliant techniques - vigorous facial massage (Pippa calls it “face slapping,” and yes, it’s as effective as it sounds 😊) lymphatic drainage and fascia release.  These fast movements genuinely lift and sculpt your face.

The buccal bit? That’s massage from inside your mouth, working the cheek and jaw muscles. Sounds odd, feels incredible, creates natural lift from within.

I left feeling relaxed, lighter, with skin that actually glowed. 
If you’re in Sydney and treat yourself to Pippa’s hands and sanctuary.
Trust me on this one. ✨

I bought this @closedofficial suit from @riadaconc I bought this @closedofficial suit from @riadaconcept back in 2023  and I chose it specifically for the raw hem. Not just raw, but threads hanging off it raw.  Proper edge. And oh, do I love a bit of edge.

Perhaps it says something about daring to push boundaries ... just a little, not too much. 
It provokes without poking, teases without trying too hard.  It’s cheeky excitement in tailored form.
This suit is perfect for days when life feels a bit mundane and I need a little provocation to get out of a slump or when I’m not in the mood to take anything too seriously.

Elegance is supreme, especially in suiting, but a little mischief doesn’t go astray. The two can absolutely coexist. ✨

My fashion tip? If you spot something with a mischievous edge hanging on the rack, try it on.  If your face lights up, buy it!
