Tonight's choices for the live stream food show with @raymcvinnie tonight at 6.30!! Tonight I'm wearing a dark navy floaty dress. The official colour is called 'ink' from the #simplybeautiful range by nz designer @janturleynz Love all the necklaces but not sure which one. Silver, the cross in the middle with antique gold or the jet beadswith rose gold? They all work.... hmm. Your thoughts? I value your feedback team!! Thanks @fabuleuxvousltd for the gorgeous necklaces. Love the range and proud to support kiwi's in business!! #dressup #style #fashion #nz #realfood #deadeasy http://ift.tt/2np6REG

Happy Monday!! I'm sharing this with you: my no makeup selfie I took after taking off all my thick layers of makeup for filming last night. To those who have sent me messages about how my skin looks in photos: THANK YOU. In all honesty, I've really struggled with terrible pigmentation and lost a lot of confidence. Not just freckles, but horrendous black patches that have made it hard for me to find foundation - in fact, often I've had to use 2 different foundations!! SO, I wanted to update you on what's worked for me, because if you have pigmentation, freckles, sunspots and signs of aging, it may work for you. About a year ago, I was introduced to Caithy Organics and have been using it ever since. This is the result. I'm still a work in progress, but everyday I'm getting my confidence back....And who knows, one day I may actually be brave enough to be barefaced in public. I've shared a link if you want to try it. Cleanser, toner, moisturiser for $90.....It's a no brainer X

Who loves coffee?? Just had a great coffee from Farro Fresh in Constellation!! I keep going there because the coffee is consistently good. Very shortly, I'm going to be on the road more for filming so I need to know where do you get GOOD coffee in your area? I may be in your neck of the woods so please share your fav below. If you can, tag them so I can find them. Thanks in advance xx

JEANS! The struggle is real. Has anyone managed to find the perfect jeans yet? You know the ones that just don't quit? These are the only ones I've found that work on my body shape. Got them a couple of years ago and my mum told me off because they had rips in them. *bless* The down side, is I can't really wear them on camera, except for the Pete and Monique show. Where do you get your perfect jeans from? Please post your thoughts and share a pic of you in the perfect jeans if you feel so inclined. I'd love to see your fabulousness!! Blue, black, skinny, wide leg, flare....I wanna see it allllll. Thanks in advance for your help team!!! (FYI: this is my 'do not disturb till I've drunk my coffee' face...X)

So anyway, I'm letting you all in on a little secret. I had a really cool audition yesterday. Can't tell you what it was for, but suffice to say (warning - foul language ahead) I was pretty much crapping myself. Yes, after all these years of auditions, I still get nervous!! I wore the 'colour of trust' - the blue top which is fast becoming my fav from designer Jan Turley and this cool Heart of Hearts necklace from Fabuleux Vous. The best part is the message on one side of the necklace: 'She believed she could, so she did.' It was the kick in the butt I needed to remind myself that I'VE GOT THIS. I guess it's like that old cognitive behavioural trick of wearing a rubber band around your wrist and pinging it every time you think a bad thought or swear or something, to change the behaviour. I say, get rid of the rubber band, as wearing a glam sparkly dangler that swishes against you with every step is a much nicer reminder of getting rid of the fears and focussing on fabulousness!! Fingers crossed Cherubs!! M XX

Hmmm which one to wear for the live stream with @raymcvinnie tonight? At least my next 2 days of filming outfits are SORTED!!! It's nice to have my colours sorted and accessories planned so I can grab an extra few minutes of sleep in the morning! Red with jet beads and rose gold from @fabuleuxvousltd and blue with sterling silver. The necklace on the right has hearts on one side and on the other side it says 'she believed she could, so she did.' This is the story of my life. Go out and achieve greatness. If you believe you can, you will. Thanks @janturleynz for the gorgeous garments from #simplybeautiful and @helentc121 for the beautiful bling. I love supporting women in business. You ladies and your stories inspire me to keep on kicking butt and sharing the love. Thank you.

OMG. This. Makes my heart and my tummy happy. They support the bee keeping community through sustainable, ethical business. If we didn't have companies like this, we would be at risk of losing our bees. Lose the bees, pollination stops. Lose pollination and lose our food source, then the world is screwed.
