On the pitch at Eden Park with media and bloggers and their kids for the cookie launch for I Love Baking kids sports party this afternoon. You can see the children playing behind me. The rain held off and the sun came out for some fun playtime on the stadium and treats from I Love Baking. I’m wearing: coat by Aquascutum, pants Turet Knuefermann tkstore, shoes by ECCO, leather scarf top Zambesi. At least I didn’t wear All Black, right?!

Such a pleasure to see iconic legendary sisters Bic Runga and Boh Runga at Boh’s jewellery shop at 95b Ponsonby Road where she showed us her new range inspired by New Zealand birds. Photo thanks to @michikohylands Fashion Uber who brought her gorgeous children along, as did Bic.
You must check out Boh Runga’s jewellery; it is sterling silver with feather rings from $79 and rose gold and 9ct gold necklaces and earrings. Boh wore the drop dead stunning huia feather earrings in sterling silver with gold tips ($899) that I covet, along with her amazing jumpsuit.
