I used to look into my wardrobe, bursting at the seams, and think, ‘what am I going to wear?’. I wasn’t left wondering long, with so many boutiques in the inner city offering a hugely varied array of New Zealand and International designers. Continuing from yesterday’s post, here is part 2 of my favourite places to shop in Wellington. //Area 51; cnr Cuba and Dixon St Area 51 isn’t the kind of store that you visit when you know you shouldn’t be spending money. Since it opened back in 2000, I’ve often found it difficult to walk into the store…

We’re pretty spoilt in Wellington. Sure, we often have some truly terrible weather, but that aside, we’re privy to a huge number of cafés (all of which seem to serve fantastic coffee), and boast a number of well edited boutiques. I know I’ve said time and again that I mostly shop online, but, there truly is nothing quite like the experience of shopping in a bricks and mortar store. So, as a bit of an ode to Wellington, here’s part one of my favourite boutiques to frequent in the windy city. //
