nzfw day 4

Posted on September 20th, 2011

(Vintage Chanel Two Piece via Thread People, Zara Blazer, See By Chloe Bag, Flint Glasses via Ruby, Topshop Heels) These are the only photos I have of my outfit from the final day at NZFW. Unfortunately I didn't even get a chance to take one photo of what I was wearing on the third day due to our crazy schedule. Sorry these aren't more detailed shots but you get the idea. Absolutely LOVE this vintage Chanel two piece I bought a few months ago. It's paper thin so I've been waiting for the weather to warm up to wear this. It's pale blue with a red cherry print - the perfect playful designer piece I was more than happy to invest in. I have a feeling that it actually might be pajamas or something which I suppose makes me love it even more. It has a wrap around design which you can change to have a open, plunging neckline so I plan on wearing it like this when I have a bit of colour on my winter skin. These are a few photos I quickly took after lunch with Natalie Cantall, Tiffany Low and Yvan. No idea how we managed to actually eat something in between shows but I think you can tell by the first photo that we're pretty freaking happy about it.

nzfw day 2

Posted on September 15th, 2011

(Ruby Jumper, American Apparel Shirt, Zara Pants, Topshop Heels, See By Chloe Bag) The second day of NZFW kicked off with one of my favourite shows of the week, Ruby, where we enjoyed some fresh beverages prior to the show. It was the perfect way to start what was going to be an intense day of back to back shows starting with Ruby, Celine Rita, Jimmy D, Lonely Hearts, Trelise Cooper and finishing with Stolen Girlfriends Club in the evening. Oddly enough the highlight of our day wasn't the amazing shows we saw but in fact the amazing news we received a few hours before our flight. Originally we were scheduled to fly out after Jimmy D to go straight to New York but after meeting Len Brown, the mayor of Auckland, he arranged to cover the costs of changing our flights so we could attend the full week of NZFW. I'm not going to tell you how much this was but let's just say it was something I never thought possible! Incredibly kind and incredibly surreal. New Zealand really is a beautiful place and home to some of the nicest people I've ever met. Now off to catch up on all my blog posts!
