Mahsa sailor blouse, $510
“I adore an oversized collar - this one from Mahsa is effortless and cool rather than childishly twee.” - Zoe Walker Ahwa, Ensemble co-founder
Inspirational women playing cards, $20
“I’m obsessed with playing cards and they form a staple part of every family holiday and meal out (in fact, we took my eldest son to dinner at Sid at The French Cafe last year and he was very confused when I told him to leave the cards because it’s ‘not that sort of restaurant’). In the past, my children have memorised such cards as every native insect, all NZ birds, and the world’s most deadly creatures. I think this pack will add to their knowledge base nicely.” - Rebecca Wadey, Ensemble co-founder
Wynn Hamlyn sweater, $595
“Everyday I go onto the Wynn Hamlyn site and stress as one by one, the sizes of this dreamy chunk of a jumper sell out. I feel half zip jumpers give off a 'rich dad' vibe and that is what I aspire to be.” - Imogen Temm, designer
Fenty Beauty Match Stix Trio, $95
"I have never made any effort to invest in makeup until recently. Rih's visionary efforts in the beauty industry have changed the game, and the market for makeup has never been more appealing for sceptical women like me. This is the first makeup purchase that was fully mine - not a friend's or my mum's, all mine. If you are a beginner like me, the Trio is easy-to-use and fits perfectly in your purse. They stick together too, so there's a low chance of them getting lost in my 'everything' tote bag." - Lofa Totua, writer
Fresh Retro Love wool blanket, $299
“I discovered Fresh Retro Love at the (very good) Central Flea market in Auckland, where they offer a colourful collection of restored New Zealand wool vintage blankets. I love the nostalgic, keepsake value - and they recently added their own new wool blanket in fun ‘winegum’ colourway." - ZWA
Elle & Riley cashmere pants, $598
“If there’s anything that sums up my tactile urges this year, it’s puppies and cashmere. And because I’m not crazy enough to get another dog, this deliciously cosy cashmere tracksuit from Elle & Riley will keep me swathed in soft and cosy cuddles all through our volatile spring days and nights.” - RW
Olympus AF-10 Mini 35mm Point and Shoot Film Camera, $195
“Nothing says ‘I’m creative and a little bit insufferable’ louder than putting your film photography on Instagram – and I'm totally creative and insufferable! I want this because it has a built in flash, it's little and my go-to disposable camera purchase is not what a good Planeteer should be using.” - IT
Hybrid Cells earrings, $39, from Moana Fresh
When Moana Fresh first launched its online store during lockdown, my family and I went crazy over all the goodies - but the earring selection was what stood out for me. These rope earrings are so cool and come in a range of colours." - LT
Elizabeth Arden Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide Capsules Hydra-Plumping Serum, $87
“My Nana and Aunty are huge fans of the Elizabeth Arden capsules, and both have amazing skin. My own skincare routine hasn’t been very good lately so I’m keen to try this beauty classic myself - the latest in the Ceramide line focuses on a hydrating glow with hyaluronic acid, something I definitely need.” - ZWA
Maggie Marilyn shirt, $495
“Picnic basket chic. Eat your heart out Yogi bear.” - IT
Cavalier Bremworth rug
“Like most people, I’ve spent a large part of this year looking at my house and pondering how I can improve it. A rug seems like a very grown-up purchase, but not as grown-up as carpet, so it happily sums me up: stuck in the middle of life. This is the most beautiful comfort-wool and I’d love to burrow my feet into it.” - RW
Rowing Blazers Princess Diana sheep sweater, about $555
“It’s unlikely I will actually buy this BUT I desperately want it: a replica of Princess Diana’s famous sheep sweater from the ‘80s. It’s a dream collaboration between the ultimate preppy brand, Rowing Blazers, and the makers of the original sweater, Warm & Wonderful. Rowing Blazers has also remade Diana’s equally as famous ‘I Am a Luxury’ sweater.” - ZWA
