BLOC, Auckland.
Ahh, BLOC was a dream come true! Any of you that have had the pleasure of stepping through the front doors of BLOC will know that it is an absolute designers heaven. It was definitely at the top of my list coming to Auckland, especially as I'd only ever seen Father Rabbit online. Father Rabbit was just amazing, I probably spent about forty minutes just on the first level of BLOC, which also had Citta Design (!) Then on the second level I finally stepped foot inside a Collective store, which has always been one of me and mum's favourite places to shop online. I ended up picking up a few things from Father Rabbit, including a white enamel mug for my bedroom, a marble patterned diary and a Theseeke focusing temple balm (the packaging was really pretty!) I also picked up a brass candle snuffer for mum and a book that I'd been seeing on basically everyone's Instagram's that I knew I had to read, How To Be Parisian Wherever You Are!
We probably ended up spending close to two hours in BLOC, as I just didn't want to leave. I was snapping and videoing and lusting after just about everything in there like the amazing looking food in their cafe on the second level + there was an entire level just for BoConecpt!
I came away from BLOC with over one hundred video clips on my camera (!!) so I've managed to edit them down into my second and final Auckland Travel Diary, which you can now watch directly from my blog below. I just love BLOC and I strongly suggest you check it out if you're around the Mt Eden area. You can visit their website here + Father Rabbit's website here (and heads up, Father Rabbit are having an up to 50% off sale right now too!)
Bella.
