What if your next neutral wasn’t black?⁠
⁠
A rich brown that brings a beautiful depth to everyday dressing. Hello, Vintage Chocolate. 🤎⁠
⁠
We’ve always thought chocolate brown deserves a place alongside black, white and grey in a great wardrobe. It’s warm and surprisingly versatile. And there’s something about this shade that makes you look at the colours already hanging in your wardrobe a little differently.⁠
⁠
Four ways to style chocolate brown with colours you probably already own:⁠
⁠
✔️ SOFT PINK, An unexpected softness. Fresh, feminine and just the right amount of contrast.⁠
⁠
✔️ CREAM, Effortlessly polished. Think crisp shirting, fine knits and that lovely balance of light against dark.⁠
⁠
✔️ CAMEL, Warmth in every layer. A mix of tones and textures that feels relaxed, considered and pulled together.⁠
⁠
✔️ BLACK, A modern classic. Forget the old rule about not mixing black and brown. We think they’re better together.⁠
⁠
Sometimes introducing one new colour is all it takes to rediscover pieces you’ve loved for years.⁠
⁠
Explore Vintage Chocolate in our Delmar Leather Mini Skirt and Oversized New Yorker Motor Jacket. Two very different silhouettes in buttery-soft leather, designed to find their place in your wardrobe season after season.⁠

The easiest way to style a statement piece? Don’t build a whole new wardrobe around it.⁠
⁠
Start with the pieces you already know work for you, the favourites you reach for on repeat, and introduce one piece that changes the outfit.⁠
⁠
That was always the idea behind our Park Avenue Pleat Skirt. A black leather pleated midi skirt designed to feel special, without needing to be saved for a special occasion.⁠
⁠
Dress it up. Make it casual. Wear it differently next time. The versatility is what turns a beautiful piece into an investment piece - one that can genuinely earn its place in your wardrobe.⁠
⁠
Park Avenue Pleat Skirt. Made for more than one occasion.⁠

Here’s Nica’s favourite ways to wear your Elizabeth Arden blush:

Lifted blush: Apply high on the cheeks for a naturally lifted look. For a fresh summer flush, sweep a little across the bridge of the nose.

Monochromatic makeup: Blend your blush through the crease of the eyes to effortlessly tie your whole look together.

Dewy cream finish: Mix your favourite powder blush with Eight Hour® Lip Protectant to create a radiant, cream-like blush. Bonus? It doubles as a nourishing lip balm.

On Wednesday evening, we were delighted to host some of Aotearoa’s most inspiring women for a celebration of @elizabethardenanz’s relaunch of their pioneering PREVAGE Multi-Restorative Creams.

Guests were invited to explore the new Day and Night formulations over a stunning three-course meal at @onslow.nz. Elizabeth Arden National Educational Manager @letsmakeupbynica introduced our guests to the world of PREVAGE, providing insight behind the reformulation and hero ingredient, Idebenone.

The upgraded Multi-Restorative Day Cream SPF 30 PA++ and Night Cream provide a powerful collagen defence, delivering proof, not promises.

We’re excited for this new innovation arriving just in time for winter, knowing that our skin will feel rejuvenated, protected, and resilient day and night.
