I’ve had a few people asking about gifts for Mothers Day, so I’ve had a wee hunt around to find some lovely things to celebrate the wonderful women in your lives – things that are a far cry from the handkerchiefs that I’m fairly certain I heaped upon my mama when I was younger! Now I’m all about the pampering – giving her some TLC and some time out to relax.
The Very Vintage Day Out 2015
Over the weekend I went along to The Very Vintage Day Out, and I had an amazing time! I played assistant at the Photo Safari in the morning, I swooned over lots of scrumptious dresses and cheered for two of my friends who were finalists in Miss Pinup New Zealand 2015. I’ve got a whole bunch of pictures taken by both Doug and myself, so let’s go! Come and experience The Very Vintage Day Out 2015 with me.

Colour Me Purple
On the 19th of March 2015, HELP is holding their annual Colour Me Purple charity auction to raise money to help fund their crucial work within our community. Emceed by actor Aaron Ward, the evening’s entertainment will include performances by Kiwi icons as well as both a live and silent auction. Outstanding locally-made art is on offer, as well as amazing experiences, including a walk-on part with local heartthrob and sexual violence prevention educator Sam Bunkle on Shortland Street, a weekend away experiencing Waikato’s Waitomo caves and Hobbiton, and three nights at the Gold Coast in the Sheraton Mirage Resort with flights included. HELP aims to raise $50,000 to help them bridge the funding shortfall they face in delivering their services.
Tickets to Colour Me Purple are limited (but don’t worry, I’ll let you know how you can get yours in just a moment!), and guests are encouraged to wear their best purple attire – so I’ve put together a few of my favourite purple finds to help you look fabulous!

All you need is love … and brunch
I’m just going to come right out and say it – I am not a huge fan of Valentine’s Day. I celebrate the love I have for my partner, my friends and my family more than just one day a year, and I really don’t think that it needs to be commercialised with a push to spend big money on diamonds, flowers and chocolates (not that I’m opposed to any of those things!). That being said, I like that there is a reminder to celebrate love – not just your love for others, but also for yourself.
Instead of (or in addition to, if that’s your jam) celebrating Valentine’s Day with chocolate and expensive gifts, do things a little bit differently. Here are a few of my suggestions on great ways to celebrate love (any day of the year). View Post
