A Girls Guide to Mac’s Cider Pairing

A Girls Guide to Mac’s Cider Pairing

Bucking the trend that has seen sickly sweet ciders flood the market recently (if I never taste another Strawberry Lime Cider it will be too soon!), Mac’s have taken inspiration from their brewing roots and brought to market four stunning wee drops that will easily find favour

“I don’t know how you do it Mum”.

Ethan said this to me about 4kms into my run yesterday.  We preempted a bit of a lazy day for him and insisted he accompany me on his bike.  He usually just “gaps it” – his words – completes the distance as quickly as possible

After a short stay in customs jail my comfy, velvety, gorgeous {“super ugly hippy shoes” – Husband} black and white Birkenstocks have arrived!  I ordered from Amazon through a seller in Germany which actually took  f o r e v e r, but still worked out cheaper than purchasing here – even with the ridiculously exorbitant customs charges added on, hello revenue gathering : /

I had been lusting after these sneaks for an age and they finally popped up in the sale section at UO.  Could not resist.  These will definitely be my go-to comfy flats this season {added bonus, small socks are completely invisible!}.

Blue Illusion is an Australian retail store that I have just noticed in NZ {I don’t know how long they have been here!}.  The clothes are not for me, but they had some gorgeous shoes and hats, and I just couldn’t resist these little flats.
