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

Black on black on black. I’ve always wanted a pair of black jeans but the shore girl in me resisted for far too long. HA!  Shore girl no more…… We all know Kmart have totally upped their game in the homeware department but what’s happening

I have THAT child.  The one that is obsessed with getting his mitts on anything that cost more than a cup of coffee and may be potentially fragile and expensive to fix.  My DSLR has just returned from a holiday at Canon HQ and now needs to be kept up high.  A string shelf phaff was obviously in order!

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!}.

What I Wore | Jeans, Leggings, Boots

The weather in Aucks {and the rest of New Zealand} has been totally shit lately. Super cold, windy enough to blow one of our huge palms over and rainy rainy rainy. Hate. Every time I wear these boots I think “this HAS to be the

What I Wore | Jeans and Sandals

I am just itching to get into summer clothes, or at the very least some springy outfits but the weather is just not co-operating.  I am loving cuffed skinny jeans at the moment, at least I can wear some summery shoes and keep my layers and merino up top!

What I Wore | High Low Skirt

What I Wore | High Low Skirt

This outfit consists of three pretty basic staples; my ancient denim jacket, a black satin cowl neck blouse and a neutral skirt. What pulled it together were the accessories. I have been trying to pay more attention to my jewellery, scarves and shoes as they

Sometimes the coolest finds are the ones you didn’t know you were looking for. I stumbled across this bespoke necklace on twitter and snapped it up. It’s made from a NZ penny and half crown and is amaze. A Tale of Two Coins by Pallina 

What I Wore | Spring Layers

What I Wore | Spring Layers

Before I left the house I had to put a jacket on.  It’s that kind of weather, changing every five minutes and messing up my hair.  BTW, I am actually counting down the minutes until my hair appointment tomorrow afternoon, my roots are hideous.

Anywho, back to why we’re here.  I like this outfit, it’s warm, colourful and comfy and as promised I have worn some different shoes!  The bag was an un-expected little splurge.  I admired it at full price and the next time I visited it was on sale!  Hoo-ray.

By the way, I LOVE Wardrobe Wednesday.  It really makes me get a little more inventive with how I dress, plus, a little more forgiving of myself when it comes to my own self-image.  It gets easier each week and I’m definitely becoming less self-conscious about sharing what I wear to you three avid readers!  Thanks Miriam!
