Friday Favourites
Remix intern and Auckland enthusiast Minnie Parker tells us what she's loving this week.
They say the way to capture someone’s heart is through their stomach rather than their eyes, but Amano are showing everyone its possible to do both. These gorgeous looking croissants filled with truffle, ricotta and parmesan have got out tummies rumbling and hearts fluttering. Feeling like a Friday treat? Head on down to Amano’s exquisite Britomart bakery you deserve it.
Want to rock the 90s trend, but aren’t so sure the grunge-inspired slip dress look is for you? Meet “Lola” from local label Paris Georgia. Designed for the modern woman, the dress features a sleek silhouette, square neckline, and subtle contrast stitching. It’s just one of a number of drool-worthy pieces to come out of Paris Mitchell and Georgia Cherrie’s collaborative efforts. Since first combining their love for timeless classics in 2015, the duo have quickly garnered an impressive fan base, with their clothes seen on the likes of it-girls Georgia Fowler and Phoebe Tonkin. Available in an eye-catching blood-orange and crafted from woven wool, the Lola dress is the perfect purchase to inject a little warmth into your winter wardrobe.
Birdies Roast
Faced with the lowest temperatures in three years, this past week Aucklanders reportedly used enough energy to power 450 floodlit stadiums the size of Eden Park. Luckily Birdies Eatery are here to provide us with a little extra warmth in the form of their new Sunday roast. All through July you can head to the Sylvia Park restaurant to tuck into their soul-soothing menu. Nothing says comfort food like crispy duck fat potatoes.

Shiseido Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate
This one’s for those of us who are dying for dewy. Shiseido’s newest formulation of their award-winning Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate only needs to be applied in the morning and evening and provides an instant hydration. With antioxidant reishi mushroom and iris root extracts, we don’t doubt you’ll be yearning for a few extra pumps during the day as well.

Everyone loves a sale, especially when its hosted by New Zealand designer label Stolen Girlfriend’s Club.
