Something special....

Hey there!

You may have heard that at MFP we do lovely wee custom stamped charm necklaces.

These are a perfect special treat for a lover, friend or your secret crush (aw!)  Choose between a teeny tiny star, startburst, lightening bolt and banner with your choice of different chains.  Prices range from $40-$85 depending on style and chain.

What will you have stamped on it?! a secret message, you and your loved ones initials or a  favorite lyric.  

Check out the custom necklaces here.  Be sure to have your order in by Wednesday morning if you need it sent out to you or by Thursday if you plan on picking it up in our Wellington store.

Fab!

I look forward to making up your Valentines necklaces!

The Return of Capital and New Glory Days

It seems fitting that the new issue of Capital Magazine has arrived on our doorstep just as Wellington has started buzzing again. People have returned home from holidays, work and school have started back, the bars and cafes have gone from crickets and tumbleweeds to loud crowds and standing room only and Wellington is gearing up for Fringe, the Sevens and the New Zealand Festival. It's lovely to see it alive and thriving again after a well deserved Christmas break; long may these hot, summer days continue!

Capital Magazine has put forth an issue of festival fun, Spanish colour and as always, sweet Wellington vibes. The fashion section is full of summer brights, and the food section is brilliant as always; my favourite column being the beer one, naturally. We've got limited copies, $3.90 each, so do make sure you pop by and grab one. It's the perfect thing to read over a morning coffee, trust me!

(Also, hot damn. Babes on a beach!)

We're happy to have the first print edition of Glory Days here at M.F.P. Over the past year, Glory Days has established a solid space on the internet for all you vintage lovers and admirers. They have finally brought into the world a beautiful print edition for you to really get your paws onto, and it's pretty wonderful.

This issue is really your quintessential guide to all things Art Deco. A big spread on the Napier Art Deco Weekend is perfect for anyone attending this year and an interview with cover star Pokey LaFarge will have you gearing up for the upcoming WOMAD festival. There's also classic cars, food, fashion, pinups and so much more. So pick up a copy from us or grab it from our online store by clicking HERE.

Get reading kids!

Picks of the Sale!

 

Hey you lovely lasses and lads! If you haven't yet heard, we're having a massive Summer sale with up to 50% off clothing and other lovely things. Brilliant, hey? With so many things to choose from, I thought I'd go ahead and give you my picks of the sale, just to help you along. 

Clothing 

It was a pretty tough decision, because I really love all the clothes in our sale, but this stunning Ivana Shirt Dress from Silence Was is my pick from our Summer clothing. Why? It's stylish, smart and classic, can be worn with or without a belt, transitions well into the cooler months and has that cute little back cut out. Bonus, it was $310 and now it's a sweet $200.  

Other

 

I'm not actually a list person, but I do like to pretend that I am. I absolutely adore film (I would love to work as a set designer in the future) and this guy, the Film Listography, has gorgeous illustrations alongside little list idea starters to get the list ball rolling. It would make a great gift for the film buff in your life or just to have it around on your coffee table with a pen so you can use it on those chilled movie nights in at home. Plus save a cool $10, as it's now $25. 

Accessories 



I absolutely love this Kate of Arcadia bag, and have no idea why it hasn't yet found a home! Especially seeing as it is now only $200 (marked down from $405, oh the savings!). If someone doesn't claim it in the next week, I'm going to have to grab it! It's a stunning little over the shoulder number with soft suede and simple leather detailing. Would go with everything and is just gorgeous. Check it out HERE

Well, that's me with my picks for the sale done and dusted! Hope you all find something beautiful to brighten up the start of your year.

P.S. I know, it wouldn't be one of my posts without a recipe, so check this one out for Otsu and add sliced cherry tomatoes, green kale and some cooked mushrooms and zucchini for a delicious Summer salad. Winning!
