Going Gaga Over - White Soda {win this} CLOSED

Soon winter will be a just distant chilly memory, with spring just around the corner it’s time to think about the warmer months ahead. Australian summers are built around water, be it the beach, pool, a river or a dam kids just love to get wet. Mums just want their kids protected from the sun and look great doing it. White Soda swimwear is Australian designed and made with UPF 50+ chlorine resistant stretch PBT, this season they have an absolutely gorgeous colour palette of sorbets with matching separates including boardshorts, bikinis, one-pieces, hats and swim nappys. White Soda brings style and fun into being sun smart.

Sisters Romi & Danielle are behind the label and have a long family history in the fashion business from designers & manufacturers to boutique owners. Drawing on their own professional backgrounds after they had children, White Soda was born from a foundation of fashion and fun – a collection of girls and boys mix and match swimwear and accessories in classic styling with a modern twist. The concept is simple – summer swim essentials that have a serious side without sacrificing style.
