  • Models I met and liked: Jennifer Tooley.
    Name: Jennifer Tooley Agency: Vanity Walk Age: 15 Ethnicity: Dutch How did you get into modelling, and how long have you been doing it? I did one of Vanity Walk’s catwalk courses and was picked up from there. That was about 8 months ago. What’s the best modelling job you’ve done so far? I haven’t been modelling long, [...]

  • An exclusive first look at Zambesi’s Winter 2012 campaign.
    Just as Summer seems to be getting into gear, you’ll notice that Winter collections are rolling into stores. It’s the start of a new fashion season and to kick it off, here’s an exclusive first look at some shots from the Zambesi Winter 2012 campaign, shot by Marissa Findlay and starring Clyne’s Michael Whittaker and [...]

  • The trials and tribulations of being a blogger (read: unemployed).
    So being a freelancer/blogger isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Sure it’s mostly fun to do, sure you work on your own schedule, do what you want when you want, get sent freebies every now and then. Sure. But financially? Financially, for most, blogging is the pits and I am feeling that right now. [...]

  • Highs and Low(e)s.
    Highs: I posted a picture from this new HIV/Aids Awareness campaign on my Facebook page, with the word ‘Thoughts?’ underneath it. I wasn’t expecting much response but boy was I wrong. It turns out people love to give their thoughts on these kinds of things. Check it out (and maybe even give us your own [...]

  • There are going to be a few Kiwis at this New York Fashion Week.
    There’s less than a week to go until the first New York Fashion Week of 2012 and the show packages have been rolling out. You’ll be pleased to note that there are a few New Zealanders (or at least a few we’re claiming as our own) cards in amongst the bunch, most notably one from [...]

  • Models I met and liked: Danika Rooney.
    Name: Danika Rooney Agency: N Model Management Age: 15 Ethnicity: 1/16 Maori How did you get into modelling, and how long have you been doing it? I’ve wanted to do it a long time. I sent my photos to one agency, they said no. N Model Management was recommended to me so I sent photos to them and [...]

  • This is what I look like when I wear my brother’s clothes.
    Very rarely a day goes by where I am not informed that I look like my brother, or that he looks like me. It’s true, James and I look alike – quite alike. We both have those dreaded Lowe-family chubby cheeks, the average eyesight, better-than-usual metabolism, long fingers and toes, tanned skin. I mean, we [...]

  • Highs and Low(e)s.
    Highs: Productivity levels quite high this week. Many meetings attended, hater comments at an all time low, blogging frequency up, came up with so many great ideas this week even. So many great ideas! Had a few impromptu photos taken yesterday, which I am going to try to post tomorrow. I want to tell you [...]

  • New Zealanders in Paris (and they goin’ gorillas).
    Incase you hadn’t noticed, there have been a couple of Kiwis repping our country at the shows in Paris this month – first up, freshly off his catwalk-modelling hiatus – Michael Whittaker. The guy managed to nab himself a total of 5 shows: Julius, Damir Doma, Thom Browne, Balenciaga and Comme des Garcons (the latter [...]

  • Thanks for reading, would you like a present?
    Ages ago I said if I ever won the fashion category of the Concrete Playground Bloggers Award, that I would be giving back to you readers to say thanks. Well, I did win (insert smiley face here) and as well as the glory, I also got to pick up some pairs of sunnies (thanks to [...]
