How Swonderful


If you pop down to beautiful, sunny, spectacular Island bay on a weekend you'll find the neatest thing~ The Mamachari bicycle workshop- home to a talented couple who are "cycle advocates" they are importers, bike mechanics, bloggers & retailers! Doing up vintage bikes & reselling the beauts while providing a groovy atmosphere & coffee from Cafe Caribe who coincidentally are housed in our old Brooklyn shop :) Joy!

Stay Golden

Thanks so much for all the crabbie love!! I like Amber's befitting tittle of Kool Krab. Kool Krab it is! Me & Mum were discussing it today & we feel there is a definite lack of anchors on the new design however. So I will be trying to work an anchor in there somewhere before it goes to print. Everything would be better with more anchors though really (Says the nautical mad sailor girl.)


I got some shoes in the mail today that I won on trademe. They are red corduroy & super fabulous! I can't quite decide if they are meant to be slippers? Or they might just be samples- as the sole is kind of unfinished (I'd better watch out for slippery surfaces, how embarrassment!) Regardless, they are awesome & have a witchy vibe- in the best possible way! I can't wait to pick my outfit tomorrow based around these red beauts.


Also on trademe... I've had my eye on this amazing owl calender all week, but it seems some other folk have too as the price today has shot up to $63! I'm not about to fork out that much, as hoot-tastic as it is. Next time round maybe. X

It's pronounced "Squirl"


I saw these beauts on the Hokey blog last night & asked my boyf ever so nicely if I could borrow his credit card. Lucky me! I collect salt & pepper shakers, some of which can be seen in the shop, and these are just too cute! I know they will take pride of place in my collection.

I think the lack of creatures like squirrels & raccoons in New Zealand is what makes them both so darn appealing, won't someone please (accidentally) introduce them?

There's plenty more treasures like my squirrels to be found at bliss Vintage. X
