Fashion

Home is where the heart is, and whether your humble abode is on the Sunshine Coast or you’re just dropping by for a visit, CLO Studios in Noosa is the kinda one-stop shop we adore.

Immerse yourself into their stunning creative space where you can share your artistic abilities with (and learn from) people from all walks of life.

Looking to escape the current madness of the world? Then head to Aloe Flora, Maleny’s lush new indoor plant studio.

Love interiors? And coffee? Then you’re going to fall fast for Design Trader, the Sunshine Coast’s very own design library. 

A recent addition to the Sunshine Coast shopping scene, luxe women’s wear label Aje brings a level of elegance and glamour to Maroochydore’s Sunshine Plaza.

A surf shop with a twist of the usual, Dessa is a collective boardcraft and apparel boutique nestled in Peregian Beach. From rad threads and cool gifts to boards by Australia’s top shapers and skate gear, these guys also stock a bunch of women’s clothing, so no-one’s left out. 

For all the fashion boutiques and homewares stores on the Sunshine Coast, there’s nothing quite like Mooloolaba’s latest recruit, El Badi. 

For everyone who’s been swaying towards adding some ethically-produced fashion and wares to their lives, but have no idea where to start, we’ve got great news. 

Lovers of high-quality slow fashion will find a slice of paradise in the stunning store that is Cloth & Hide.

If you’re looking for garden and design inspo this place has got you covered, and then some. 

Imagine two passions combined—vintage vinyl and smooth coffee. 

If you love up-cycled and vintage pieces, then you’d better listen up ‘cause we’ve just scored a stunning little boutique nestled inside the recently revitalised The Wharf precinct. 

Looking for the perfect way to pamper your pooch for Christmas? Or just looking to spoil your doggo because, well, dogs are the best and they deserve everything? Then look no further than B’ARK, the newest dog boutique on the Coast. 

It doesn't get better or more luxe than this does it? Have you ever dreamt of having a beautiful horse at your wedding or event?

This amazing new concept store is the first of its kind on the Sunshine Coast. It's a surfboard shop with a side of amazing fresh food and All Press coffee. Sounds cool right guys? We love the clean and crisp interior of the store mixed in with the Waterpistols Surfboards hanging from the ceiling. It's the perfect place to buy a board or some wax, and then sit down and enjoy a healthy poke bowl and smooth coffee on the Sunshine Coast. 

Think Pinterest worthy, aesthetically pleasing, vintage decor that's going to make your wedding, baby shower or birthday (the list could go on and on..!) not only stand out BUT make your special occasion EXTRA magical.

If you haven’t been to Collective Haus, AND you call yourself a vintage maven, we’re highly doubting your self-labelled prowess right about now. Because this vintage everything store in Yandina pretty much gives us the butterflies as soon as we walk up the steps. It might not help that we also knock back a cup of their coffee before heading in for the kill, so we’re totally on a caffeine high, which manages to up the eyesight from bordering on blurry to impressive…so all the more take-me-home treasures for us.

Sitting across the road from the river, a little white beach shack—the kind that’s conjured up when you think of a relaxed life by the sea—is where you’ll find Coast Store.

Get the shear of your holiday at Peregian Beach’s General Officer, where you can browse through the tees, caps, shorts, and artworks in store while you wait.

The Smash Pit is the first of its kind in Queensland, and we’re already wondering where it has been all our lives. Basically, you head into a purpose-built room, kitted out in safety gear, with a bat and a crate of stuff—think crockery and electrical items—then you let out any anger, pain or stress by smashing to smithereens anything within reach. It’s not rocket science, it’s destruction therapy and we bet you’ll leave on a freakin’ high.  

If you’re the kind of person who won’t add anything to a space without some serious thought, or who puts in hours of contemplation for that perfect birthday gift, Stitch Piece Loop is your store. Bursting with little knick-knacks, quality threads and a sweet selection of nursery finds for all those upcoming baby showers, this is the treasure box for anything creative with a one-of-a-kind feel.

Bohemian. Sundays. Two words that are music to our folky ears. Sitting pretty in Peregian Beach, Bohemian Sundays is the ultimate Sunshine Coast fashion boutique for wandering souls and gypsy hearts. And if that’s not you? Well, you know what they say—if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em! Free People, Arnhem and Auguste, all make turning a little boho not so loco.

With an epic posi on Hastings Street, Bow & Arrow is the place where you can rub shoulders with the likes of Alice McCall, Karen Walker and Faithfull The Brand, right here on the Sunshine Coast. Shop in a boutique setting and then flaunt your picks over lunch at Noosa favourite, Sails.

Get your shop on at Alterior Motif, one of the Sunshine Coast’s best fashion boutiques, and you’ll be divvying up your wardrobe space among international brands, Australian favourites and local up-and-comers who you really oughta know. Left the outfit shopping for your friend’s beach wedding to the last minute? Scoot into their Cotton Tree or Noosa Heads stores and you’ll struggle to come out empty-handed. Dress, sunnies, shoes—tick! Oh and those cute Sass and Bide jeans? Might as well grab a pair for the recovery barbecue.

The creme de la creme of Sunshine Coast farmers markets, Noosa Farmers Market pulls together local produce peeps, beauty and health products made in the region, and an ever-changing list of street food vendors. Sure, this is one of the best markets on the Sunshine Coast but it’s also home to some of the best breakfasts in Noosa, so we’re warning you: do not eat beforehand. You will regret it.

Getting h-angry on a Friday night ‘cause you don’t know what you want to eat? We’ve all been there! Save the whining and get to the tiny seaside town of Marcoola, where a vacant block in the middle of town turns into a relaxed, fairy-light covered food fiesta. Once a week, you can enjoy Mexican, Thai, Bavarian, Japanese—all in one place. Wrap your taste buds around that, and you’ll see why Marcoola Market is rated one of the best markets on the Sunshine Coast.

Screw diamonds. Flowers are a girl’s best friend. And although we have a few fave florists on the Sunshine Coast, right now, it’s all about Flax Flower Collective.

Where do we even begin? Basically, if you want to shop the best homewares on the Sunshine Coast get yo’ tush to Peregian Beach.

Maleny Food Co. is heaven on Earth. It’s a fact, our tastebuds say so! Sitting pretty on the main street of this hinterland town, Maleny Food Co. is the old Colin James Fine Foods with a smashing new name. Serving up some of the best tasting gelato on the Sunshine Coast, we’d highly recommend making the drive up the mountain just for a creamy scoop of white choc and raspberry.

This might just be the MECCA of all deli-goers. Not just a corner store, but an organic haven open six days a week, Belmondos Organic Market has earned its reputation as one of THE baddest (that means good) boys in town where a fine feed is concerned.

Oozing old-fashioned grocer quaintness with a hippy edge, Renae’s Pantry is what a supermarket looked like before processed-living took over the world.

Like your furniture with a bit of history? Sunshine Coast homewares store, Raw’s Maroochydore-made products are created mainly out of materials from old Queenslanders.

Retro fans will go orange for this mid-century boutique in Peregian Beach. Laid out to perfection, midmodoz gives modernist furniture and homewares a sexy space to shine.

The size of your local Woolies, this superfood supermarket has everything you could possibly need with over 18,000 natural and organic products.

Fashion mavens, if you’re lurking around Maroochydore and NEED a new something-something for your wardrobe, this one is for you!

Compound’s four walls provide a gallery like space for a mean espresso bar, vintage surf threads, relic boards, and free-flowing casual banter.

Bright, bold, and a little bit kitsch, this hidey hole is also a Moffat Beach treasure. This is the place for all the health-conscious hobos to hit if you’re keen on basing your daily dietary needs around an absolutely delectable juice, smoothie or acai bowl.

Handcrafted in Maleny, any cheese from Cedar Street Cheeserie is certifiably “blow your pluggers off” kind of material. Made with deliciously fresh local buffalo milk, Trevor Hart is the artisan behind the cheese, using traditional farmhouse processes to create the small batches.

Cheese is one of life’s greatest pleasures. We thought about it, and a cheese-less world would be a very sad and sombre place. Thankfully local company, Cheese Therapy delivers monthly installments of cheese — the kind you won’t find on the shelves of just any shop — across Australia.

You know we love a good deli slash cafe, right? But before now, there wasn’t really one on Hastings Street—which meant hopping in a stuffy car to get camembert and dips for an impromptu afternoon cheese platter on Noosa Main Beach or at the points. Well, that’s all changed thanks to Providore On Hastings.

If you’ve got a hankering for Swiss cheese, this local Eudlo cheeserie produces some of the best in the biz. In its cheese cellar, Fromart Swiss Cheese can have hundreds of wheels of handcrafted Swiss cheese slowly maturing at any one time. Let’s be honest, it sounds like paradise.

Tucked along Gympie Terrace on Noosa River, The River Read is the go-to bookstore for Noosa locals. This is what we like to call the slow-shopping experience. It’s likely you’ll spend at least half an hour perusing the book-heavy shelves and stands, so don’t come armed with a whining wingman or this could tip them over the edge.

If your perfect day consists of heading up to the hinterland for a picnic with bags full of tasty morsels and a book to read in between mouthfuls and food coma naps, you’re our kinda person.
