4 weeks to go
On this day, in 4 weeks time, it will be The Gatsby Picnic and the fashion competitions at the Soundshell. Both are free events. There are even make up and nail styles as well as hair styles that are particular to the 1920s and 1930s. Today's post is for nails. Being on a very tight budget, I got the nail polish, some tape (didn't have any in the house) and the reinforcements from the 1-2-3 shop in Marewa. They have quite a few useful bits and bobs for preparing your Art Deco look.
I'd seen this look before and I've had my first attempt. While I don't particularly like it, it is handy in that I normally can chip my polish just sneezing. I've managed and whole day, including doing the dishes and there is no damage yet.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
