$Such an incredible evening last night spent celebrating 𝐑𝐨𝐤𝐮’𝐬 𝐆𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐦𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 @suntory_rokugin 🏮⛩️🍸The word ROKU means “six” in Japanese, which I didn’t know until last night! This has always been a favourite gin of mine (love the bottle shape) & is crafted using six unique Japanese botanicals & eight traditional gin botanicals. These botanicals are then infused, distilled & blended by the Japanese artisans of Suntory Spirits in Osaka, Japan {See my story for the spine-tingling sound of the traditional Japanese Drums} 🪘♥️🪘 Happy Friday all. Hope everyone has a fab weekend x . . . . #suntoryroku #rokugin #event #ginandtonic #cocktails #ithinkimturningjapanese #autumn #supper #stylist #theglasshouse #morningside #auckland #nz #japan #gin$

Thank you to @opinewzealand for brightening up my day ~ literally, with these beautiful new shades from their OPI Nature Strong range 🍃 Loving the mood-boosting palette & names inspired by nature that made me smile such as ~ “Kind of a Twig Deal”, “A Kick in the Bud”, “Leaf by Example”, & “Eco for it”. Happy Thursday everyone 🌸

Sorry for the radio silence, challenging times here recently in NZ. My thoughts & prayers are with those who were affected by Cyclone Gabrielle.
This week it was good to get back to work… hanging a privately commissioned painting for the gorgeous @emma.l.post in her beautiful Mt Eden home 🤍
Love the soft colour palette of grey & greens used in this bedroom. Interior design @karenkellyinteriordesign Thanks to @elframonz for doing such a great job with the framing. Hope everyone has a great week ahead X
