NZ National Costume

Written By Unknown on Tuesday, August 7, 2012 | 3:04 PM

Tonight was time for another goodbye - this time to my Rotary Club.  I had the chance to play host and we had fun with NZ music (Tiki Tane), NZ decorations (courtesy of the great kiwi tea towels I got for my last birthday), NZ food (my first ever attempt at a pavlova and my speciality, Anzac biscuits) and some NZ culture (my maori speech and grace before dinner).

Spot which one I made and which two I bought from Asda?

Tesco suede booties, Glassons boob tube, Whistles black jacket, Greenstone pendant and my favourite black dress.
Today's outfit post is a little different - I wore this outfit to try and be in theme - NZ's national costume.  The best I could do was to steer towards the All Blacks with my greenstone pendant (gifted) and my favourite black jersey halterneck, asymmetric hem dress (bought as a sample from a manufacters sale for $5). 

I have no doubt you'll see lots more of this dress as it is my go to LBD, and being a jersey knit it is perfect for so many occasions (especially travelling!).  So far I think I've worn it to a Navy cocktail party, funeral, whilst pregnant, for work and for going out.

I publicly want to thank everyone in the Swindon Thamesdown Rotary Club for making this year so special and for making me and my family so welcome.  I can't wait to join my new club in Takapuna in a couple of weeks.  Rotary really is cool!

Me and President Steve.
