This week…

1. Karl Lagerfeld unveiled his latest Marie Antoinette inspired collection at Versailles. The show was set in a gorgeous garden, and the models styled in pastel coloured wigs and Chanel shaped beauty spots. It couldn’t have been more perfect.

2. In real life news, this weekend I celebrated my friend’s birthday at the Mercure Hotel in downtown Auckland. Hotel parties are the best, no?

3. That said, hotel parties are always improved by the presence of cake pops.

4. Going out for international-style cuisine is always a good time. This week I did Japanese yakitori at Tanuki’s Cave and Mongolian BBQ at Gengy’s. Have you ever tried either?

5. Elsie’s organization tips are fantastic. I love the idea of storring my nail polish in glass jars, and using a cake stand to display my perfume.

6. I love the look of these mini asparagus frittas. Perfect for week-day lunches.

7. Elle’s post on the many uses of concealer has me looking at it in a totally different way…

8. Blogging tip of the week: 9 steps to take if you find yourself loathing your blog. I hope you don’t, but these tips should help you get out of any rut!

9. The video below is amazing. A couple of my work mates bought this gem back after attending an creative/design event. It explains why New Zealand has the perfect conditions for creativity… ; )
