Ashley Fogel jumper (similar), RUBY bedrock mini skirt, Karen Walker coat (similar), RUBY kingsley flats, Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel, Karen Walker rings, J Crew earrings, Karen Walker sunglasses I think that it’s probably safe to say that my obsession with everything leopard has become next level. As in, girl doesn’t wear much else these days. Since getting my grandmother to take down the hem on this RUBY skirt, I can’t help but want to wear it over and over, as it’s gone from being just a touch too short, to the perfect length. I know it’s supposed to be Spring,…
ph. by Sonny Vandevelde There’s no denying that I have long been a Karen Walker girl. Her Wellington store has seen my card swiped more times than I care to remember, since my first purchase there ten years ago. And while I’ve always been a fan of classic Karen, there’s an alluring property in her collaborations; initially After the Apple, Beau Coops, Dieppa Restrepo, and now, in her latest collection, entitled ‘Utopia’, come two new collaborations with BePositive and Benah.

Kate Sylvester ‘jean’ bodice, RUBY ‘bedrock’ skirt, Acne cardigan, Marni heels, Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel Is it completely terrible to feel all fashioned out? With the addition of Fashion in the Capital to the events calendar, preceded by New Zealand Fashion Week; not withstanding the deluge of NYFW and LFW posts which have taken over my Instagram, Bloglovin’ and Twitter feeds, I almost feel like I’m ready to take a small vacation to a remote island, completely devoid of technology, and where dress codes involve little more than a bikini and beach cover-up. I’ve promptly changed my heels for flats,…
Karen Walker slanting frill top, RUBY charlie animal jeans, Karen Walker ‘docker’ coat, Topshop heels, Karen Walker ring, Cuyana tote bag (similar) Day three of NZFW, and also the final day of the trade-dominated part of the week. The rain finally seems to be easing off, and a quieter Thursday schedule means more to time collect thoughts, process things I’ve seen, and tonight, catch up on some much-needed sleep.
