New Zealand Music Month – Top 10 Kiwi Songs

May isn’t just my birthday month (and the month of everything emerald), it’s also New Zealand Music Month!nz-music-month-summit

New Zealand Music Month is all about celebrating our talented musical artists and is a great time to discover new New Zealand music that you may not have heard before as well as getting excited about old favourites.  There are a lot of gigs on over the month of May, so venture out into the crisp Autumn air and try to make it to at least one of them!

All Wrapped Up: Top 10 Scarves

My wardrobe consists primarily of neutrals – navy blues, greys and blacks are pretty much my staples.  I then like to liven things up with accessories – either coloured or textured – that make me look and feel fantastic.

nzgirl asked me to compile a list of my top ten scarves, and I thought that even though we are entering the cooler months I would include some that can be worn all year round, because scarves and wraps are wonderful for all seasons!

This is, hands down, my number one must have scarf.  Don’t you think it looks super snuggly and warm? It comes in a variety of colours, including burgundy (as seen here), so everyone should be able to find a colour to suit them. View Post

I thought I’d share a few fabulous ways you can be on trend with your wardrobe and accessories, and look so good everyone else will be green with envy…

I love the lace detailing on this frock.  Winter might be on the way, but this dress makes it seem like Spring. Team it up with a masculine blazer and a classic clutch. View Post

Review: Sorbet “Wonderbar” Conditioning Bar

By now you’ll have realised that I love natural products.  If you read my review of Sorbet’s Frizz Wrangler last week, then you’ll know that I am a fan of this Christchurch brand, and they have well and truly converted me to their solid shampoo ways! What goes hand in hand with shampoo? Conditioner, of course!

DIY Mickey Mouse Nail Tutorial

In this step-by-step tutorial I’m going to show you how to do some cool Mickey Mouse themed nails.  We’ve done them in Minnie Mouse colours (pink and white, with a bit of rainbow glitter) for an extra girly touch, but you can use any colour combo you like.

Lumos Base and Top Coat

Start out by applying a base coat.  This step is so important that I dedicated a whole blog post to it! I recommend Lumos by Famous Names because it reduces the drying time – bonus!
