Colour Palette

Somewhere on the east coast of the South Island is the most beautiful beach I've ever seen. With aqua blue water that softens into a royal blue horizon, fluffy white foam, and black sand.

Zoe & Morgan make beautiful jewellery. Last week I visited Zoe in studio and talked Paris, Twin Peaks themed cafes and favourite pieces. These are mine..

The Bach

             

 There is something about hiring a bach and getting out of town for a couple of days. I love these strange spaces that most of the time sit uninhabited. The mismatching decor, the stale smell when you first open the door, the collections of VHS tapes and toys hiding in the cupboards, and the sense of anticipation for your holiday.

Zzzzzap!

The new Karen Walker eyewear collection holds its usual playful charm. This time inspired by outsiders and aliens, there are an array of oversized frames to take your fancy in a wash of 70's pink, orange and tortoise shell.

Sunday

Serve french toast with figs, goats cheese, honey and good company

I get by with a little help from my friends

Just taking a little moment to appreciate all the special people in my life. Maybe I'll introduce you.
