With less than a week until New Zealand Fashion Week kicks off, I’m starting to find myself thinking a lot about all the small errands I need to get done by Monday. Things like changing my flights, picking up drycleaning, picking up shoes from the cobbler, picking up laybys, and finally getting around to packing my bag. The latter seems the most daunting, as there’s something so final about travelling with such a finite number of items in your suitcase. For those of you who aren’t aware, the week is split into two parts, New Zealand Fashion Week and New…
I’ve never been one of those girls who manages to accumulate drawers and drawers of beauty products, always opting for the most minimal approach possible. There’s something satisfying in knowing that your make-up routine takes less than five minutes to apply, and can easily be cut down to the basics of bronzer and mascara when time is too tight.

It’s been a long time coming before I finally succumbed to a pair of dicker boots, or at least, I should say, a second pair of dicker boots. Like most holiday purchases, the first were an incredibly impulsive buy while in LA, after learning that the NYC Creatures of Comfort store had one taupe pair left in my size. The extent to which…
Bassike v-neck t-shirt (similar), Isabel Marant tundra skirt, Kate Sylvester coat (similar), Vintage boots (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel I know what you’re probably thinking – didn’t I say that I only had one winter coat? Well, it would seem that the sales have gotten the better of me, as I’ve found myself stocking up on some much needed basics as well as a few ‘statement pieces’. Combined with the new season purchases I’ve been accumulating you can imagine that my wardrobe has received a much needed update, and hopefully one which will see me adding less to my wardrobe…
