Outfit today was inspired by Sara Moon and the make-up at Marc Jacobs Spring 2011.

This velvet 70s culotte jumpsuit has been with me for years! I first purchased it from who knows where when i was still living in Christchurch. I went through a period of wearing it like crazy a few years ago and I just rediscovered it in all its glory again.
Worn with vintage lace up knee high boots.

Hope you’re enjoying the WILDFLOWER experience.

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to write this message to say that at this time I don’t feel that it is right for me to be posting as usual. My home town of Christchurch, New Zealand has been hit with a disastrous earthquake that has ended in much devastation. I am lucky that my family and friends are OK but there have been many lives lost and a huge amount of damage.

It has left me in massive shock, upset and heartbroken.

They are still battling from big aftershocks since the recent quake and it has been quite a stressful time for the people of Christchurch since the large quake back in September. Words like aftershock, liquefaction, epicenter and fault lines, have all been apart of everyday life.

A very strange feeling to have the place you are bought up in all crumble to the ground, and my heart goes out to the people that have had to experience this traumatic time.

I wish for healing, love, kindness and safety for all out there.

Felt like a real honor to see a real Marley, these guys rocked!
I almost couldn’t hold myself up by the end of their set from the mad day of boogie!

Wild Flower Tie Dress & Wool shorts

For this dress, I cut up a Tie and patch worked it together to create the bodice bib coz I really liked the colours and stripes. The rest is heavy silk, has side pockets and draw strings, worn open to reveal wool shorts with a tartan waistband and button fly….a follow on design from the pants version I make out of merino wool.
