THE TEMPORARY ‘I DO’<br />
Say ‘I do’ with an interim ring that says all the<br />
right things. New Zealand brand Meadowlark has<br />
released the Stand In Ring (from $675) so that<br />
you can propose to your intended, get the nod<br />
and then pop off to find the dream engagement<br />
ring together. The 2mm band (in either yellow or<br />
white gold) has ‘Will you marry me?’ engraved on<br />
the inside and comes with the option of including<br />
a diamond set into the message too.<br />
AN ART COLLABORATION<br />
Looking for an accessory that engages a bit of artistic<br />
licence? Deadly Ponies x Anni Albers is the result of a<br />
special collaboration between the luxury leather brand<br />
and the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation. Anni Albers<br />
(<strong>June</strong> 12, 1989–May 9, 1994) was a German textile<br />
artist and it is her 1969 Red Meander design (as shown)<br />
that sparked a series of pieces released by Kiwi designer<br />
Deadly Ponies. Beautifully screen-printed onto American<br />
small-grain calf, each piece stands alone as a work of art.<br />
TIME TO CREATE<br />
During the Covid-19 lockdown, New Zealand fashion designer Caitlin Crisp<br />
developed a construction collection to encourage people to dust off their sewing<br />
machines and get busy. The Create Your Own range features three patterns: Mini<br />
Bow Bag ($30), The ‘Iso’ Dress ($35) and Oversized Carryall ($35), all of which<br />
come with instructions on how to construct each piece. So, find yourself some<br />
fabric and get the old gang together for an evening of crafts (and cocktails).
