OUTFIT POST: What I’ve Been Wearing In August 2020

Here’s a collection of what I’ve been wearing around Auckland in August. We entered lockdown level 3 in Auckland mid month, so I haven’t been out and about much at all. It’s been a lot of trackpants and slippers, I tell you. But here are some of the times I got up and dressed up.

You can see my outfits on ThreadNZ Instagram and follow at www.instagram.com/threadnz to see what’s new.

OUTFIT POST: What I’ve Been Wearing In August 2020

It’s okay to stair. In customised denim jacket hand-painted by @beautifullyfrank, Kathryn Wilson boots from @everlasting_recyclingwithlove, Ted Baker bag kindly gifted by @ted_baker, and a vintage velvet longsleeve dress.

A beautiful day to visit Mairangi Bay for brunch. Wearing vintage dress, Karen Walker necklace and bag, Glassons faux fur.

Feeling very cosy. Wearing vintage handknit mohair dress, gold boots from @everlasting_recyclingwithlove

Brown boho paisley georgette dress by ZARA, vintage woven hat and bag.

Each morning is a new chance for me (to remember to do my physio exercises ?) Wearing leather and tartan jacket by Company of Strangers, top by Issey Miyake, vintage scarf.

I don’t think we should have spaghetti bolognese for dinner, how about egg-white omelette? ? I’m wearing a vintage white cotton dress with a million pearl buttons down the back that is not zip in, zip out easy wear fashion, but I love it.

No matter the weather, find your sunlight.
Wearing denim boiler suit with belt by mamalicious, blue suede heels by Kathryn Wilson.

Takapuna cinema has relaunched as Monterey Lounge Bar and Cinema, and I headed in last night for cocktails to see Military Wives. Dress vintage from Dove Hospice Glen Innes.

Colours so bright.

Have you been on the ferry? I took the night ferry from Devonport to Auckland, to Botswana Butchery in the Ferry Terminal for a dinner tonight with Church Road Winery. It was fabulous!

Rise. And shine.
How are you doing today?

Old meets new: velvet culottes by New Zealand vintage fashion label Miss Deb, with puff sleeve sheer blouse by Femmeluxe and fringed waistcoat by Ann Demeulemeester. Secondhand velvet leopard boots, and vintage Oroton mesh style clutch.

A Seventies vibe today, in my scarf print jumpsuit, and British wool felt hat. Boots by Kathryn Wilson.

Good morning! It’s Friday already.
It’s Four Seasons In One Day weather right now. Perfect chance for layering. Pants by Annah Stretton, tunic by Company of Strangers, shirt by moochi, jacket by Zambesi.

See you next month!
