More Fantasy Island Friday:: NZ Lust

Deborah Sweeney is a designer after my own heart. She loves vintage. And she loves colour. And she's from NZ.

I've said it once. I'll say it again. Quirky. Uber cool. Love.

Deco-licious

To save you any more of my terrible photos from this week I'm posting from Fantasy Island.

I'm renaming Friday, it's Fantasy Island Friday. Every Friday I'll post something that I LOVE!

Today it is these awesome Holly Fulton perspex necklaces from offtherunway. They are - phwoar - highly coveted by moi!

Baying for Blood

Last night my sister and I went into the city. We were buoyed by excitement of what's to come - the Young Blood Designers Market. And then we turned up and a bazillion people were standing outside the Powerhouse Museum and we made two more.

The security guard was turning people away because they had too many people inside - and they told all of us standing there that there was not a chance we were going to get in unless we'd pre-paid for our tickets. Ho-hum.

So my sister and I stood there for what kind of seemed like a long time. We ummed and ahhed. We could chance it and beg to get in, or make the most of having our husband's babysit, so we hit the high road and went off to Ariel. There's no mistaking it, we know how to party.

The long and the short of it, as soon as we got home we pre-purchased our tickets for today and rolled up today and rolled straight in. It was worth it, so many great young designers in one small space. But take my advice, if you want to go next time, buy your ticket in advance.
