Everything you've missed this week...
Another week, another wrap-up! Here’s what’s been catching the Remix team's attention this week.
Isabel Marant x Converse
Converse has teamed up with Parisian powerhouse Isabel Marant for the first time, combining the timeless and iconic Chuck Taylor styles with that signature chic Marant style. The star of the collection is the brand-new Chuck 70 Wedge, a bold update on the classic Chuck 70, packing a hidden 2.5-inch wedge heel nodding to Marant's pioneering role in the sneaker wedge trend of the 2010s. This collaboration is the perfect mix of high fashion and street style and we can't wait to welcome the return of the heeled sneaker back into our shoedrobe.
J Balvin x Stolen Girlfriends Club
Just ahead of hitting the stage at this Auckland show last week, global reggaeton superstar, J Balvin, was gifted a custom charm necklace from none other than Stolen Girlfriends Club. Handcrafted from 925 sterling silver and packed with New Zealand's most symbolic gemstones like Obsidian, Nephrite Jade, Crazy Lace Agate, and Rhodonite, the necklace was all about mixing J Balvin's fire with Aotearoa's rich cultural heritage. Presented by the brand's Co-founder and Creative Director, Marc Moore, it was described as a "best of album" in jewellery. The piece reflected Stolen Girlfriends' rebellious edge while spotlighting New Zealand’s craftsmanship on the world stage.

The New Season Eyewear of Ahlem & Garrett Leight
Two stunning eyewear collections just dropped in time for stylish, sunshine-filled days. First, AHLEM's “Eyes on Paris” collection is basically a chic Parisian daydream in frame form. Imagine elegant French craftsmanship infused with a dash of magic like the Lombards style, all rounded in a glamorous and tailored frame. On the other hand, Garrett Leight draws inspiration from California's stunning mountain ranges with the “Higher Ground” collection. The El Capitan Sun pair, for example, draws a design blending classic metal styles with fresh colours, perfectly framed in a rectangular aviator with classic details.
