NZ Love #6: Pretty NZ Wishlist

There are so many amazing little NZ designers making the coolest things! So this week I've put together a little wishlist of gorgeous things made by talented NZers. Yay pretty things!!

These Minnie Cap pendants and rings by D_luxe! Veeeryyy cute. 
Available for pre-order from Good As Gold

I loooove my cheap-y (hah!) little feathered headband I made with lace and hot glue, but what I would love even more is a beautiful handmade feathered headpiece by Jasmine Sparrow. Or a collar. Or shoulderpieces. (And I love how her last name relates to her work :) Super pretty.

Mega fun little wallets by Paris House. My faves are "Art Will Save The World Right After Rock-n-Roll" and the one with a bunny saying "Bite Me". With a googly eye stuck on. Awesome.

Teatowels slash Art by Sarah Larnach for Esther Diamond. These are super-cool. Unfold them, iron them and pop them in a frame (or dry the dishes with them if you're fancy)

Lil' Lovelies pendants by Madame Fancy Pants. Fortune cookies!! Milkshakes!! Tiny Mice!! I'd like a different one for every day and they would make me smile all week :)

I've been a tiny bit obsessed with this dress for a while..... it's from the Little Bandits collection by Lonely Hearts. I've mentioned it before on here, but white lace dresses kiiiiiill me. In a good way. I LOVE. And this one's just perfect. Sigh.

And I have to stop looking now or the credit card might come out!
I'm going to go get stuck into some design work to distract myself from feeling average today.....go away impending illness! And I'll be daydreaming about lemon cupcakes with butter vanilla icing..... Rachel + I made them a couple weeks ago and I've craved them ever since!!

Happy Tuesday!!

NZ Love #5: My NZ Accent VLOG!

Hiiiii!!!

I've been thinking about the NZ accent lately, especially watching NZers speak on the news broadcasts about the Christchurch earthquake, so this week for NZ Love I thought that instead of sharing something tangible from NZ, I'd share my NZ accent with you! Haha, lucky you! :p

I've been thinking about doing a video blog for a little while anyway soooooooo here it is! It's my first one eveerrrrr and I felt like a dork talking to my computer and trying to remember what to say.... but this is it :)

 

Haha!! Sooo hard to think what to say, and I said 'ummm' too many times, will try and work on that for next time :p Thanks for watching if you did, and let me know if you could understand me if you're not a New Zealander!

P.S. I am SO excited!! Tomorrow is New-Tattoo-Day! EEK!
