GOODBYE 2025 ✨
I began 2025 in Chiang Mai, Thailand, standing at Thapae Gate and I’m ending it tonight in Brisbane, Australia. Starting the year in Thailand planted a seed, when I returned, I wanted to truly practice gratitude.
A shift in mindset changed everything for me in 2025. Humbling myself, practicing daily thankfulness, and learning to move with less judgement (even when it was tempting) made a real difference.
I set boundaries, did the internal work, and showed up for myself in ways I hadn’t before.
So let’s all raise a glass, to the new people who walked into our lives, and to those who didn’t make it into the next chapter as we turn the page.
Here’s to 2026 🥂
Ten years ago me would probably be day drinking… but this year I’ll be enjoying a few quiet wines with my family and heading to a local park for fireworks.

When you get the call up from one of the mains to be on the makeup team for one of NZ's accomplished designers it was a given I was gonna drop everything, iso my brushes and head down to Shed 10 for NZFW 25
Her designs have been worn by Michelle Obama, Simone Biles, Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Venus Williams, and Lady Gaga.
All I can say is WOW, now that is what NZFW needs. An injection of impeccable tailoring, detailing, drama and styling. Every garment was worthy of a red carpet 🔥
