Best of the ‘burbs - Newtown, Welly June 9, 2008

I went shopping with my friend in the weekend, and she took my around Newtown to some fantastico little gems of shops. I’m so impressed with Newtown now.

First stop, Duncan&Prudence  - home of the now ubiquitous Newtown tee and their own jeans line.

Then there’s Juniper Gift Gallery which is having a sale at the mo because it’s moving down the raod Rintoul St. Lots of lovely, crafty, pretty things.

Then up Constable Street to Red, a super-tiny shop I would never have noticed if my friend hadn’t lead the way.  From NZgirl:

It’s a little out of the way and sure it’s only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday but this little unassuming red store tucked away in suburban Newtown has to be the best kept fashion secret in Wellington. Full to overflowing with beautiful, well-cut clothes for every nzgirl and lots of beautiful jewellery. 87 Owen Street, Newtown

And lastly The Powder Room, my friend’s hair dresser. I’m so jealous of their website, and it’s definitely gonna be the next place I get my hair cut.
