How’s your week been? As a mum, I’ve been juggling the last week of the term before school and kindy holidays, with a packed schedule of fashion and beauty events so it’s been busy but lots of fun! Read about ‘The week on Thread Episode 20′ to see highlights of my week in photos all taken with the in-cred-i-ble camera on the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ I’ve been trialling.
The highlight of last week was the Britomart Fashion Progressive Lunch where guests who bought tickets to the lunch saw five short in-season Spring Summer fashion shows at five restaurants that we walked around in teams over two and a half hours of eating, drinking and chatting. It was amazing! I’d definitely recommend doing this next time if you can. First up was Taylor boutique at Seafarers for Champagne and canapes to begin.
Ahoy there – Kathryn Wilson footwear showed retro pin-up girls in custom-made navy playsuits with victory roll hairstyles by Danny Pato at D&M salon, and guys in sailor pants and drawn-on tattoos!
Below: I’m with designer Kathryn Wilson and models Martin and Keiran. I’m wearing: jacket by Trelise Cooper, dress by TK store, necklace by Saben, headband by Karen Walker, shoes by ECCO.
Below on Clyne Models Instagram pic, you can see me (on the right wearing a headband) holding the Samsung at the WORLD show at Ostro.
Off to Ebisu for Zambesi.

The last of the five shows was Trelise Cooper – perfect for dessert at Ortolana.
Treats in the Britomart goodybag thanks to World, Zambesi, Taylor, Kathryn Wilson, Trelise Cooper, KMS, Neutrogena, MAC, Cadbury, The Landing, Flossie, Otakiri, Faby nails, Kiehl’s, and Mindfood. Pretty damn impressed that Taylor Boutique gave everyone a limited edition pleated wrap top.
Back at home, here’s the New World Little Kitchen food colouring science experiment and painting in action!
I headed into Ponsonby’s Sapphire Rom to see the Christmas presentation and get hands-on with Spotlight and make a decorated cupcake with Karla Goodwin of Bluebells Cakery.
Seeing Cats on stage in Auckland was such a highlight for me last week, and I got to take my children in to see the cast perform some numbers at the Civic theatre up close!
Below: a mother and her daughter wear cat ears at the Cats show.
What I wore to CATS – lots of new Zealand fashion – dress by non, jacket by Trelise Cooper, earrings by Zoe & Morgan, and handbag by Deadly Ponies.
GOODNESS boutique celebrated a year of its Herne Bay store with a party and these amazing berry cocktails!
This very cute cafe has opened in Mokoia Road Birkenhead called Manna Cafe and Brother Digital got me a coffee card to enjoy there – so good!
Here are things I am loving in the colour green including The Aromatherapy Company, Weleda, artist Holly Roach, Anatomicals skincare, Batiste dry shampoo, Linden Leaves footcare, Olive skincare eye contour cream, Antipodes kiwi and chia seed serum and Kerastase Therapiste. Cheers NZ Avocado for sending a box of the green goodness over.
So that’s been my week-and-a-bit with the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+! Hope you enjoyed my photos, and see you again next week x
