Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 15 May 2012 It's hard to believe that in only a few weeks we'll be hitting the middle of the year and most people I have spoken to lately are scratching their heads wondering where the last few months have gone. Of course, it's during those busy times that the online shopping concept is so convenient. Being able to browse and shop online 24/7 from the comfort of your couch is a wonderful way to keep on... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 8 May 2012From what I can tell it looked like Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Australia turned out to be a pretty sweet event. Reading through reviews and regularly scanning the image galleries provided a colourful taste of key looks we can expect to see for spring/summer 2012. Chartreuse appears to be one of the stronger colours we'll see in the new season and it also seems the peplum will also be around... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 1 May 2012Mercedes Benz Australian Fashion Week (MBAFW) kicked off in Sydney yesterday. Unfortunately, this is the first time in quite a while that there have been no New Zealand designers participating. However, I’m sure it’s still shaping up to be a fantastic event. Whilst I can’t be there this time (sad face) we have the lovely Evelyn Ebrey reviewing the shows. So, be sure to check... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 24 April 2012With the sun shining last weekend, a group of friends and I hit the road for a quick overnight stay in a beautiful area of Coromandel called Whangapoua. I think I’d have to count this as one of my favourite places in the North Island. It was simply stunning and I’m sure those who have visited this area would agree. A great place for a long-overdue catch up, while there was still... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 17 April 2012Also in the mix for Mother's Day, we have some beautiful prize packs from MOR and St Ives and a great offer from Prescription Skincare for anyone wanting to treat Mum to a Medi-facial. There's also a chance for you to win one for yourself. Ladylike Shoes dominate in this week’s Shoe Blog and to celebrate the opening of a new Ponsonby store, Augustine is offering FashioNZ readers 10%... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 10 April 2012Also in style circa 1994 were the Barkers zip-up logo hoodies. Admittedly, I loved mine so much that I even chose it to wear in a family portrait. The '90s had a lot to answer for! I’ve managed to get my hands on some vintage Barkers campaign shots for those who might not believe me. Track-suiting never looked so good! And for anyone feeling nostalgic, Barkers is bringing back the... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 3 April 2012Dunedin-based designer Tamsin Cooper is also set to make her television debut this Easter Sunday in a brand new show on TVNZ 7 called “Hearts In Crafts”. Tamsin is hugely excited about the show and about the revival of craft and the appreciation of handmade products. And we’re shopping for Animal Prints in this week’s “Shop the Look”. From snake to... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 27 March 2012In its 13th year the event has attracted some prestigious international fashion authorities and 2012 is shaping up to be fantastic. I’m looking forward to heading down South on Thursday to catch the iD International Emerging Designer Awards Show and iD Dunedin Fashion Show, so watch this space next week for the iD Dunedin fashion wrap up! I’ve checked the weather and the days... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 20 March 2012Many would argue that our summer was pretty average, however, as I’m trying to be a "glass half full" type, I can definitely think of one advantage to the change of weather this early in the year - it’s much easier to shop for coats, boots and knits when it’s not 25 degrees outside and given the selection of products I’ve seen gracing shop windows this... read more |
Editors NotesFrom the Editor: 13 March 2012Anyway, as I am starting the annual ritual of my winter wish list I thought it only fitting to share some of my fabulous finds in this week's Shop the Look. Of course, I’m not the only one with a shoe addiction. Pip’s blog “Rugged Urbanite”, addresses the perfect in-between season look, where military meets motorcycle; a must read! We also have some exceptional... read more |
