Former expat Georgina Robertson has brought the fashion influences of France and England home with her to New Zealand.
Georgina Robertson lived in the South of France and London for nine years, before recently moving back home to Auckland.
While in London she worked as the head of sales and marketing for British Sky Broadcasting, and now helps run Prescription Skin Care in Remuera. Unsurprisingly, her style has an international flavour - she tells us more.
Who are your favourite designers?
One of my favourites is Diane von Furstenberg, who creates simple silhouettes in beautiful soft fabrics that are flattering to wear.
I also love Lanvin, who create beautifully restrained, modern pieces that are timeless and elegant. Balmain is another luxury favourite. It's sexy and strong and has an edge.
What was the last item of clothing you bought?
An Yvonne Bennetti floral silk tea dress and mauve silk blouse and a Kate Moss for TopShop star print chiffon dress.
What item of clothing do you want to buy next?
The Thistle Weave underwire bikini by Zimmermann and next season's white biker jeans by Max Mara.
Who does the best shoes?
Prada and Stella McCartney - both are always ahead of trends, very comfortable no matter what height the heel is, and last for years.
The best jeans?
I prefer slim-fitting, mid-waisted jeans and Sass & Bide are the most flattering cut on my figure.
Your favourite shop?
Matches in Notting Hill, London. They pick the best of the European brands.
What is your beauty routine?
Morning and night I cleanse with Results Rx Gentle Clean, then apply Skin Medica's TNS Recovery Serum. This is followed by an anti-ageing serum. In the morning I always finish with a broad spectrum UVA and UVB sunscreen And at the end of the day I apply Results Rx Eye Doctor to keep the wrinkles and dark circles at bay.
Your best beauty tip?
Seek good skincare advice. Speak to an expert about what will make the most positive change to your skin and suits your budget.
Whose wardrobe would you most like to raid?
Kate Moss. As muse to many top designers and artists, her wardrobe would be like Aladdin's Cave.
What do you wear to work?
Something smart, low-key and stylish.
One rule you always dress by?
I'm not a fussy dresser. I try to keep my look feminine but minimal.
Best sartorial advice you ever had?
Only wear clothes that suit you, even if they're not bang on trend.
Most stylish city?
With my romantic hat on I have to say Paris for the incredible setting and beautiful people. But New York City also does it for me, with it's sophistication and attitude.
How would you describe your style?
Very feminine and classic with a nod to the latest trends.
What's always in your handbag?
Results Rx Reflect Sunscreen that's sprayed on top of your makeup, and a Clinician's Complex lip plump, which really works.
Describe the best outfit you've ever worn.
A black tuxedo jacket and cigarette pants by Joseph with a crisp white shirt, worn with pointy black Jimmy Choo boots and a Lulu Guinness clutch.
