Along for the ride This magazine has an interesting history with Jacinda Ardern. In July 2015, when she was a popular Opposition MP who regularly appeared in the media, we put her on the cover in a fun polkadot dress with the line ‘Why she’s the Prime Minister in waiting’. Yep, we called it, way back then. (I’ve heard through the journalist grapevine that this made for a slightly awkward moment for Jacinda when it arrived at the Labour Party office.) She next appeared on the cover of our July 2017 issue, when she was the deputy leader of the Labour Party. Weeks later, she became the leader of the Labour Party, and by October she was Prime Minister. The photos we took of Jacinda made their way around the…

On the wall of the central Auckland apartment where we are photographing Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, there’s an artwork by Kiwi sculptor Max Gimblett. It’s a small, brass quatrefoil from his 2015 installation, ‘The Art of Remembrance’. “You know you’re a real adult when you’ve got one of those,” says the Prime Minister. Among those present, there’s awkward laughter. Should we point out that if you’re running a country, it’s probably safe to say that you, too, are ‘adulting’? Herein lies the curious duality of our 38-year-old PM. On one side of the scale, she’s the fiercely intelligent, steely and devoted politician who’s firing on all cylinders when negotiating international trade deals, protecting our national security, pushing for solutions to child poverty and climate change, and deftly shutting down her…

It’s a rainy Monday afternoon in Los Angeles and actress Rose McIver is speaking from hands-free Bluetooth in her car; it’s hard to hear her over the hustle and bustle of the fast-paced city around her. It’s where she’s been based since 2011, and for the past five years has made the weekly commute to and from Vancouver to play the lead character of medical examiner Olivia “Liv” Moore in the comedy-drama series iZombie. The bright lights of Hollywood and the 520,000 followers she’s garnered on Instagram are a far cry from her days of delivering Fair Trade bananas on the back of a scooter in Wellington between acting gigs, but it’s clear within a few minutes of chatting to Rose that she’s a down-to-earth Kiwi who hasn’t forgotten her…

Kerry Warkia As a producer and actor, Kerry has produced several high-profile web series and the feature film, Waru. For the past 13 years, Kerry Warkia has been at the forefront of creating some of New Zealand’s most ground-breaking television and web series. Running production company Brown Sugar Apple Grunt (BSAG) alongside husband Kiel McNaughton, her career wins and accolades include producing Maori Television’s first drama series This Is Piki, and being named ‘Woman to Watch’ at the 2014 Women in Film and Television New Zealand Awards. MANY VOICES But it was her first feature film Waru that thrust Kerry into the international spotlight, when it premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in 2017. Comprised of eight vignettes made in collaboration with nine female Maori filmmakers, it focuses on the…

SHAPE: LONG TORSO, SHORT LEGS GO FOR: High-waisted, high-rise jeans that will elongate your lower half by bringing everything up a couple of inches (the higher your waist appears to sit, the longer your legs become). STYLE TIP: Cropped jackets or peplum tops will further emphasize the waist and contribute to the illusion of an hourglass shape. SHAPE: SHORT TORSO, LONG LEGS GO FOR: Low-rise, hipster styles that will lengthen your mid-section. Figure-hugging cuts will give you a more defined shape, and cropped hems that show a bit of ankle can further correct your proportions. STYLE TIP: Layering on a long-line cardigan or jacket will bring the eye down the leg and make your torso appear longer. SHAPE: WIDE HIPS/BIG BUM GO FOR: Straight cut, as opposed to skinny jeans,…

NEW SEASON, NEW LOOK As the leaves start to fall, EziBuy Home’s autumn range arrives with new styles to freshen up the home. The collection includes contemporary ruffle duvets as well as a side table edit offering something for both the bedroom or lounge. We also love these on-trend Portuguese ceramics at an affordable price. Bedside table,$250; and bowls, $21 (set of two). LILAC IS THE NEW BLACK Lilac is expected to be a huge trend for home accessories during the cooler seasons, with the purple shade featuring in throws, cushions and bedlinen. Adairs’ Precious Jewels collection, part of its AW19 range, has a running theme of lilac with surprising elements that add an eclectic feel to the design. The bed linen range showcases extravagant prints and patterns – think…

‘Your autumn preview of what’s hot this season’ Hold the line It used to be that the sign of a true makeup aficionado was the precision with which they applied their eye liner. One fell swoop? Expert status. The rest of us, etching along the lash line and hoping for the best? Decidedly beginners. But there’s good news for both camps. Sweeping liner extended beyond the corners is still at peak hype and, if you happen to end up with a heavier shape than you expected? All the better. Taking a more artistic bent, imperfect, disconnected geometric shapes, ‘floating liner’, exaggerated wings and encircling the eye are all creative iterations evolving from the runway to the street, always executed with a shine-free, intensely pigmented black or brown liner. GOOD NEWS!…

LITTLE HELPERS You’ve likely heard about the gut-health boosting benefits of probiotics, and now prebiotics are sharing the spotlight. Prebiotics are found in the non-digestible fibre that occurs naturally in plant foods. While we don’t get any nutrients from this part, it’s great for our gut bacteria. This fibre is fermented by the gut bacteria, which in turn produces short-chain fatty acids that can help improve our digestion. It’s easy to get your daily dose by eating well – prebiotics can be found in foods like oats, bananas, garlic, kumara, asparagus and legumes. And remember your gut loves fibre – up your intake with fruit, vegetables and wholegrains. Plant power Jeuneora has introduced the superfood of 2019, hemp, into their supplement range with Hemp Protein Powder. The powder is low-carb,…

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21 Your ruler, Venus, makes you feel moody at the start of April. Your relationship will benefit from laughter. Money aspects become more favourable in the second half of the month. A step up at work is in the offing. GEMINI MAY 22 – JUN 21 Action planet Mars powers into your birth sign on the 1st, so it’s all go. An intimate relationship comes alive again, reminding you of what it was like at the start.

Now, I have heard some utter bollocks in my life: “I just couldn’t choose between the two of you” and “the pain will be worth it”. But this week I heard some next-level shite. This new stupid thing is called the Age of Invisibility, the age at which women disappear from the male view. It’s 45, as decreed by boffins who don’t seem aware of just how banging women now look at this age. After 45, men apparently stop seeing us, stop opening doors, whistling as we walk past building sites. I’ve heard of the visible signs of ageing: smile lines, and a low tolerance for f***kwittery, and I’ve got a cream to fix both of those, but an Age of Invisibility, the sudden death knell of sex appeal –…

Five years ago, Miranda Waple was taking a career break when she had a light-bulb moment. The Auckland beauty entrepreneur had not long finished an 18-year career with L’Oréal – a job which saw her launch perfumes like Armani and Diesel in Auckland, and visit perfume houses in Paris. With a marketing and management background and fluent in French, Miranda had decided to take a break to spend more time with her sons – Luca (now 13) and Zac (now nine) – and see where her career might take her. A few days into her new life, Miranda recalls, “I thought, ‘I wonder if Karen Walker is going to launch a fragrance?’” MEET THE MAKER It was thanks to L’Oréal that Miranda first met and worked with Karen back in…

Q: I’m about to head overseas on holiday and am worried about getting scammed using public wifi. Is it safe? A: Public wifi networks have their own share of problems, particularly because they are very insecure. Even if a wifi network has a password, that doesn’t keep you safe from other people on the network. It’s notoriously easy for any of them to see what you’re doing and, in some cases, steal personal information or passwords. Luckily, you’re in control and can stay safe on your device simply by removing the accessibility of other users to gain your personal information. This can be done in your device’s settings by turning off network sharing. As well as this, best practice is to also turn off your wifi when you’re not using…

BE MINDFUL WHILE IN CONVERSATION Conversations are a great opportunity to practise being mindful. When we mindfully communicate, we consciously open our awareness to include a sense of our own body and emotional state, while also making space to be open to the other person. Pay attention to the person’s non-verbal communication: their posture, eye contact, and facial expressions. Many of us are uncomfortable with silence and so we speak to fill the space. Notice if you have a tendency to fill the space and don’t be afraid to pause in conversations. TAKE A 10-MINUTE MIND HOLIDAY When we’re stressed, the last thing we want to do is to stop and meditate, but research shows that meditating for just 10 minutes can help you be more focused and effective. Give…

I once went to a swanky awards function at the art gallery. I thought I looked pretty smart in my Savemart second-hand Armani jacket. It was a black linen Nehru jacket, simple, buttoned up to the neck with a mandarin collar and buttons made of coiled braid. The party was fancy. There was champagne and we were served hors d’oeuvres on these individual glass plates that had a special clip on the side of them so you could attach your wineglass to give you a free hand to wave around in full art snob mode: “The mechanical mark-making is resonant with modernist juxtapositions.” When a Herne Bay matron with asymmetrical hair and aggressive glasses frames shoved her empty plate at me, I was a bit taken aback. But I had…

As parents of two darling little humans, booking a weekend at Cordis Hotel in Auckland with my husband seemed a tad indulgent since we live nearby – but it proved a dream getaway and the perfect chance to relax and reconnect. Conrad and I booked a ‘for the romantics’ package at our favourite hotel and happily agreed to leave our parent guilt at home. Right from the get-go, we discovered the package was designed for ease, comfort and pampering. After valet parking and a warm welcome from our lovely receptionist, we changed for dinner and headed to the Lobby Lounge for a crisp cocktail and a catch-up on the week. If you’ve never eaten at Eight, I promise it’s an experience to tick off your list. It’s called Eight because…

My typical working week... Consists of long training days, Monday through to Saturday. Usually I wake up to a green tea waiting on the bench and enjoy snuggles with my dog Booker before I head to training for 8am. I get home after 4.30pm, then it’s on to life admin before enjoying some downtime at night, whether that’s at home with my husband Conor, going out with friends or across the road at the beach. I stretch most nights and say the things I’m grateful for. I try to say them out loud when I’m on the beach with Booker. Hearing them out loud makes me appreciate them more. Once a week I’ll do yoga and a float session – that’s more for ‘me-time’. MY HIDDEN TALENT IS… Knowing how…

It was taking care of her friend’s severely disabled son one afternoon, that Lisa Glassey had a thought: ‘How does this family cope when travelling?’ Having worked in travel her entire career, and in search of “something a little bit more meaningful”, the realisation that there were so many would-be travellers out there with mobility issues was the start of a new chapter for Lisa.

FROM INTERIOR DESIGNER Rebecca Richmond After embracing all things Scandi in our décor for the past few years it’s now time to take inspiration from the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi – finding pleasure and beauty in imperfection. Bring this idea into your interiors in the form of beautiful, natural and authentic homewares. Here’s how… AU NATUREL Your main pieces, such as tables, baths, and beds, should be crafted from natural materials such as stone, timber, iron and cane. Look for items that are raw and unfinished, and dress them in quality earthy fabrics like linen and wool. IN FOCUS Make these main pieces the focal point of the room by leaving plenty of space around them when styling. Tie the look together with wall colours that replicate natural finishes; Resene…

When you first wake up in the morning, take a moment to consciously sense how you are feeling: Rested? Tired? Lazy? Energetic? Bring awareness to your body and to the feeling of your breath. Before you do anything else (like check your phone!), count 10 breaths as they move in and out of the body and make sure that as you are counting, you actually feel the sensations of the breath in your body, allowing your mind to be free from any concerns about the day to come. If you lose count and get distracted, simply begin again. After counting the breaths, bring to mind three things you are grateful for in your life. Get out of bed and start your day with a positive attitude.…

Dr Now, my irascible landlord, doesn’t take kindly to my giving notice. “You’re leaving when? You’re going to live with who?” He stabs a mini-mozzarella so viciously, I wish I hadn’t taken him to dinner to break the news: too many sharp utensils at hand. “We all have to leave! The building is condemned!” I edge my chair backwards, slap-bang into a waiter. A tray goes flying. Dr Now is doused in rose-petal water, which does nothing to cool him down. “I thought you’d move WITH me. I thought we were a TEAM.” He stares at me through his bottle-top glasses as if I’m one of his lab specimens. I’m conflicted. He did, after all, offer me a roof when I crashed out of my marriage. But in spite of…
