T by Alexander Wang stripe top, Country Road mohair cardigan (similar), J Brand white skinny jeans, Valentino rock stud heels, Acne canada scarf Finding every reason to wear shoes that are just a little bit special, even on holiday; because hey, a girl only lives once, right? Thankfully, these Valentino’s have been just as easy to walk around in as anticipated – although I’m always one to pack a back up pair of ballet flats in my bag – just in case of course. Get the look:
So I’ve landed in Wellington, which as to be expected, was all smooth sailing until the moments before landing; never a city to land in for the faint at heart on a truly windy day, that’s for sure. I’ve spent the day re-acquainting myself with the neighbourhood, and returned home well-fed from an afternoon spent at my Yiayia’s – and a morning spent snacking on Whittaker’s hundreds & thousands chocolate – both *almost* reason enough to warrant a trip home (notwithstanding the real purpose – to visit family, of course!).

My personal favourites date back to White Magick (and even earlier), the silky french lace proving to serve as my own form of kryptonite, over and over again. Lover lace seems to hold so many memories, from birthdays and celebrating milestones, to sharing a special day with loved ones. These are the memories that are most cherished, and…
So I thought I’d try something a little different for a change – a video blog of my current favourite beauty products. I have to admit, I’d never realised the actual amount of effort that goes into making a video blog, and the amount of time required to edit it to achieve the desired end result.
