Boomettes, season six -

It's important to me that House of Boom is worn by people with personality rather than walking clothes hangers. I met Taina at a pop-up earlier in the year and loved her style, so she came on board as a Boomette for season six, Happiness, Slowly.  When you're not busy being a model, what do you do?

Boomette Sara and I took photos on Waipipi Beach during a consolation weekend away when we were supposed to be at Camp, and I think you'll agree the pics are gorgeous. All YOU dresses are $187.

I’m very proud to bring you my new collection, A Love Letter To Myself. I named it that cos I’ve had a hard time this year – it’s hard to work two jobs even when you love what you do – having issues with suppliers and dealing with criticism (some valid, some not so much) and worrying about money and all that stuff. But this collection is a reminder of why I do this, and why I’m proud of what I’ve achieved so far.
