Got a wee lass or lady arriving soon? Have we got the goodies for you!
We’re baby mad here at MFP (who isn’t!) but we’ve struggled to find babywear that is cute, sophisticated and upmarket, but gentle on the baby and the environment. We’re SO pleased to introduce Nurtured by Nature babywear, who design great looking garments for your kids, using organic, naturally-grown cotton.
We stock two ranges by Nurtured by Nature - Kind Organic and Bud Cotton. The garments in these ranges emphasise simple design and comfort - their styling is classical and non-fussy and their clothing comes in stylish colours. Each Nurtured by Nature product has been designed with great love and attention to detail, so that it may be handed on to either the next sibling or to the next generation.
The organic cottons used in their garments are super soft, non-irritant and are naturally grown. Plus, they’re easy care for parents, machine washable, non-shrink, colour fast and durable – perfect for those day-to-day messes!
Priced from $19 - $90, Nurtured by Nature organic cotton products are a winner for your wallet and your baby!

We are loving the fabulous New Zealand made goodies by Miss Hulse from KeriKeri!
Native timbers Totora, Rimu and swamp Kauri are the base for her lovely geometric shaped tea light holders, bangles, succulent plant holders and key rings. All of the wares are lovingly hand cut, sanded, painted with beautiful colours and then the most heavenly earthy smelling wax is applied.
All Gwyneth's designs make for contemporary pieces with a natural touch which will keep you loving them for many years to come. We particularity love the succulent plant holder in store - it looks lovely under a glass dome!

It is time for spots around Wellington city to be lit up with pretty sparkly lights again! From the 22-31st of August a dusk till 11pm walk around Wellington will become a little bit like a treasure hunt. The Lux festival starts around Eva street or the water front and make your way around spotting lighting exhibits by local artists and collaborators.
My favorites last year were the pretty birds in Eva Street, the glowing ice cubes in the park and the glowing balls on the trees by the waterfront. I am sure there will be a whole lot of gorgeousness on show this year!
enjoy!

Claire's been a busy bee in her studio lately, making all sorts of fabulous creations. She's like Willy Wonka, only minus the chocolate (and crazy eyes).
One of my favourite things to come out of the studio lately is these gorgeous sterling silver charm necklaces. At the risk of sounding like a late-night infomercial, we are drowning in beautiful charms. But unlike the Ab Blaster 3000, these necklaces are only one easy payment of $59, and will leave you looking fresh and cute (with spine intact).
Each charm comes on a 45cm sterling silver chain, with Swarovski crystal detail at the clasp. It wouldn't be an MFP piece without crystals of course!
So here's a round up of my current faves. This is only a selection, there are many more of these lovelies up on our website, check them out here!
Clockwise from left: Cherry Blossoms necklace, Ampersand necklace, Peanut necklace and Crossed Arrows necklace.
All $59!
Clockwise from top left: Anchor necklace, Acorn necklace, Lightning Bolt necklace and Scissors Necklace.
All $59!
And if you're after something a little more statement, we've got these cuties, which come on a 70cm chain and are $79:
L-R: Crescent necklace and Horse Shoe necklace.
Both $79!
We love to keep our skin supple, moisturised and oh so soft, especially during the winter months which can really mess your skin up. We're so stoked to introduce Tailor Skincare, the brain child of Sara Quilter.
Quilter, New Zealand born and bred, discovered a love for skin care while studying natural health and organic agriculture in California and began developing natural skincare formulas. Her first, the Tailor Masque, was first produced in her father's shed! Just two years later, Tailor Skincare is now a successful business with a great range of products, all made here in Wellington.
Although her business has grown, her ideals have stayed the same and Quilter only uses products which "benefit the mind, body and skin". Her products are made in small batches, using vegan and often organic ingredients. Plus, it's not tested on animals!
There are 7 glorious products in the Tailor range, the original masque, Oil cleanser (which is amazing for make up removal), dry cleanse, mist, serum, gel hydrate and moisturiser. Prices range from $29-$49.00.
Tailor Skincare Minis are the perfect size to try out the range out before investing in the full bottles, gifts, travel, or taking to the gym. They range from $5-$9. Winning!
