Jo Malone fans who eagerly await the limited edition Christmas home fragrances each year have a new one to collect. It's called Blue Spruce and is available in a giant home candle, joining Pine & Eucalyptus candles and room diffusers as a seasonal special release. The popular crackers and hanging boxes of mini-sized products are also just in at the Britomart store.
The cutest summer shoes are Soludos for Kids, now available at Nature Baby. The espadrilles come in seven colours and patterns, including our favourite, a popsicle print, and are available in sizing for toddlers to 5-year-olds. During November, each Soludos purchase will come with a free Nice Block, the locally made artisanal iceblock company. The shoes range from $34.95 to $49.95.
The Ruby for QVS bag is the ideal weekend tote - get it as a gift with any purchase of $25 or more of QVS or Via beauty accessories, available from selected department stores and pharmacies from this weekend or mybeautystore.co.nz.
