Ponsonby

Many people think of Auckland, New Zealand as the small sister of Sydney. But unless you've been there, it's actually different. Put aside the look-a-like harbour bridge, and you've got something special. A city well ahead (I think) of Sydney in terms of style, stores and trend. Take Ponsonby for example. A Paddington of New Zealand, but more in tune with today's world. It's full of incredible fashion stores, i.e Sass & Bide and Karen Walker, and trendy cafes, lounge bars and restaurants. One store, which stocks one of my favourite new labels Meadowlark, is a must-see. Meadowlark is a collection of covetable and precious jewellery in silver and gold. Sometimes playful, sometimes dark, the creations are always beautiful with an edge. 









Beautiful home

I came across Natasha Welsh's home in Madison magazine (Nov 2011 issue), and I fell in love. Situated in Seminyak, Bali, the fashion designer's home is one of sheer beauty and ethnic touches. Check it out...

To die for...literally

I wouldn't exactly call myself a foodie, nor do I spend big money on the stuff, but when on holidays, everyone is allowed to splurge...right? Not my credit card though. 
'R' took me to Clooneys. An abandoned warehouse in a hidden corner of Auckland. With factories lining the streets, I was wondering where we were going - that was, until I walked through the door. WOW. The food was one thing, but the decor was from another world. Dark, intimate and sophisticated, the minute I saw black fringing separating the tables, I knew I was in my element (please note: photos do not do this place justice). 
For food, I had baby quail covered in almond, apple and cinnamonm, and for the main, I choose Hawkes Bay natural lamb with swede, white miso, soya bean, black garlic & puffed faro. Mmmm. Our sides consisted of long stem broccoli, zucchini, black sesame salt and shoestring fries, truffle oil & parmesan. Oh, and I forgot to mention the bread plate with burnt lavender butter to start.
If I was religious and had to choose a last supper, it would be this place. Don't miss it if you have a AKL stopover or holiday booked.

A must see

On the plane yesterday, on my way to New Zealand, I sat next to the Artist Group crew (part of Chic Management). Tick off producer, art director, makeup artist, hairdresser and client, and it was a fun trip.  Familiar faces and an interesting topic, it was a nice 2.5 hour journey to Auckland, where I'm residing (for 4 days). They were on their way to shoot a Virgin Atlantic campaign, and I was on my way to visit my long-distance partner. 
In amongst the gossip, air hostesses, turbulence and glamour, sat an iPad with Valentino: The Last Emperor playing. An incredible documentary, highlighting the 45th anniversary of Valentino and his incredible empire. It's a must-see...

I'll always have a secret spot for Sportsgirl

I remember when I was old enough to go shopping (without a parent guardian) with my old best friend Nicole, and our first stop was always Sportsgirl. Since forever, it has been a favourite of mine. From the stripy Sportsgirl logo branded clothing, bags and belts, to the now stylish sequin numbers...it will remain my secret spot...Ax




Rhianna's - Talk that talk!

I love this collaboration with Rhianna and Jay-Z...



Stylish double denim

As soon as I looked at this photo, I thought of the double denim days (eek), but this, this is just SO hot. Blake looks incredible (as always) and her face radiates with this bright blue ensemble...


The "IT" Sneaker

Everyone has been spotted wearing them!
From supermodels, "it" girls to even Beyonce in her latest film clip.This Isabel Marant sneaker is the item that everyone has been purchasing.. I know I am obsessed.
The moment I fell in love is when I recently saw Aussie supermodel /supermum wearing them!!
TO DIE FOR.
