Part two of planning for February.

Stockings (not pantyhose) had back seams. Two Lippy Ladies in Market Street have a fabulous selection.

Hats: most are familiar with the cloches that were fashionable in the 20s and early 30s. Due to financial constraints, they were likely to have been worn by some through to the late 30s but there are many other styles to consider. Obviously, Charleston Chic and Decorum have lots for you to choose from and Napier Central in Hastings Street have some too.

Gloves: Charleston Chic, Decorum and Napier Antique Centre are the shops for these essentials.

It's the hats and gloves that really finish your outfit and make you a 1930s lady. I don't find it too hot to wear stockings and gloves in February but if you do, there are crocheted summer lace gloves available. It has always been correct to wear hosiery with closed shoes.

The attached document shows some fashion and includes a free knitting pattern. I wear knits in February.

Switch to LEDs for the climate

Andrew Caseley from Gen Less

Kahutara Primary School in Featherston is switching to LEDs. All LEDs are Gen Less bulbs as they use less energy, which ultimately helps halt climate change. If we all got on board and switched now it would make a huge difference

For the month of November, we want to raise awareness and work together to end all forms of violence including family harm, elder and child abuse, sexual assault, gang violence, and more. These victimisations affect us all and can have lasting effects that spill into our everyday lives including at work and school.

To do your part this month, perhaps consider supporting a women’s refuge or work with Police in your area to host an info night on how to identify elder or child abuse in your community. This month’s campaign also coincides with White Ribbon Day on 25 November which is an internationally celebrated day that aims to prevent violence towards women.

Let us know how you’re spreading the ‘It’s Not OK’ message in your home or in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
