Welcome to Pineapple Style, a design and style blog celebrating Queensland’s unique, fun, colourful, comfortable style.

In our first post, we’d like you to meet Lisa Smith, artist, singer, music therapist, midwife, nurse, gardener and fabulous fashion icon. Lisa dresses for a party most days and celebrates vibrant colour, texture, natural fibres and horticultural motifs. These photos were taken in the first week of a Queensland summer in Lisa’s wild and beautiful flowering garden in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland.
“I’m most comfortable in material that breathes and flows'”says Lisa.
“I love soft linens and cool calming colours.”
