Collected by LeeAnn Yare

LeeAnne Yare is one VERY clever lady. If she's not styling and writing for some of the top interiors magazines in the world, styling advertising campaigns or designing for TV, she is flying planes as an international pilot for Air New Zealand and being a Mum to her two young boys! How's that for multi-talented? Talk about an over-achiever!!

In her spare time (yeah, right!) she has recently opened her very own concept store called Collected byLeeAnnYare. Sitting alongside Bo Concept, Citta Design, World Beauty and Pencil Boutique, Collected is situated in the BLOC retail space on Normanby Rd, Mt Eden. I was so excited to finally check it out today and it didn't disappoint.

Known for her love of bright colour and pattern, Collected is eye candy for design lovers. Gorgeous Florence Broadhurst wallpaper, iconic Acapulco Chairs, limited edition screen prints combine with wooden scrabble pieces and beautiful candles providing something for everyone. I will definitely be heading back there for gift shopping and for our new home.
