The Week on Thread Episode 24 featuring highlights of my week in pictures including fashion, food and beauty from The Gardens, Taste of Auckland, Ecostore, Ashley & Co, Vitafresh, and Zoe and Morgan’s tenth anniversary party.
THE GARDENS
I was excited to go on Friday for lunch and a jug of cocktails (I know!) at the new courtyard restaurant by The Marvel Group called ‘The Gardens’, at The Commons in Takapuna. Below: the piggy platter of pork treats, which also comes in fishy treats.

ECOSTORE ECO CHIC EVENT
I headed along to the Eco Chic event at Ecostore to see some stylish labels stocked at their 1 Scotland Street store featuring sustainable fashion. Pictured: Matt & Nat faux leather handbags, Proof eyewear from recycled materials, We Wood watch and Elk jewellery. www.ecostore.co.nz
TASTE OF AUCKLAND
Yum! Taste of Auckland is so good. This is a modern interpretation of a hangi with slow cooked goat! Also LOADS of wine and of course cheese, olives, cupcakes, and more. www.tasteofauckland.co.nz
ASHLEY & CO
Hand-poured candles and beautifully-scented hand creams at Ashley & Co. The Gone Green range from Ashley & Co is a first choice for families. From intense hydrating hand cream to eco-wash with organic borage oil for your hands and body, Ashley & Co have got you covered. Free from sulphates, parabens, mineral oils, colourings and fragrance certified 100% natural by Ecocert. For stockists and more info see www.ashleyandco.co.nz
ZOE & MORGAN 10th ANNIVERSARY
Incredible! Congrats on your 10th anniversary Zoe and Morgan; a creative and heart and soul-filled New Zealand jewellery design brand. Thanks for the beautiful sterling silver stars ring and Lalicious hand cream and Coola sunscreen, and sweet pea posy by The Botanist, how gorgeous. For where to buy see zoeandmorgan.com/nz/

VITAFRESH
Antipasto for the win. Look who’s found the adult snacks section at the Vitafresh event at Uptown Bounce in Grey Lynn, to celebrate the healthy new range of Vitafresh Made for Kids natural fruit drink. The kids LOVED this drink so much.
With the gorgeous Carly Flynn and a few other lovely media mummies at the Vitafresh event. It’s great to see Vitafresh is lower sugar for kids and has no artificial sweeteners, flavours, or colouring.
