Little Bird Unbakery
This is an old favourite of mine and one I frequent a fair bit whenever I’m in Kingsland. Everything is raw, vegan, gluten free and free of refined sugar. They do great smoothies, inventive lunches and delicious cakes and slices. Eat in or takeaway. The lemon slice is a must.

Showroom 22 Spring/Summer Preview
I attended next season’s preview from the likes of I Love Ugly, Adidas, Glassons, Ingrid Starnes, Juliette Hogan, Kingan Jones, Kathryn Wilson and more. The makeup was really fresh and uncomplicated, with an emphasis on beautiful highlights. Hurry up summer!
Shoot for Chaos & Harmony
I was on hair & makeup for Chaos & Harmony’s Spring/Summer 2014 shoot, which took place at the Dust Palace (an amazing training space for trapeze and aerial artists). The shoes were stunning, of course, and between touch ups I even had a go on the ropes. www.chaosandharmony.co.nz

A new Yoga studio has just opened up on Barry’s Point Rd in Takapuna. with over 40 classes they offer 16 different styles of yoga from babies and teens, pregnancy, Yin, Vinyasa, Kundalini and much more. It’s a beautiful space to practice yoga and until Sunday all classes are the cost of a gold coin. Well worth a trip over the bridge. for class times visit
