<strong>Style</strong> explores the best of Christchurch, giving readers the opportunity to<br />
develop and celebrate their individual style in life, home and fashion. A monthly<br />
publication, <strong>Style</strong> is presented on high-grade gloss stock with a hard cover.<br />
Delivered flow-wrapped to top real estate value homes around Christchurch,<br />
<strong>Style</strong> targets readers with a high disposable income. Designed to inspire,<br />
<strong>Style</strong> has a lengthy shelf life that offers excellent value for your advertising choice.<br />
I always find the month of <strong>May</strong> is a settled time of year. The rush of school<br />
holidays has finished and there is a lull before the harsh winter months take<br />
hold. Enjoy the last month of autumn – take some time out, cosy up and enjoy<br />
what we have on offer in this issue.<br />
On page 15, we celebrate Mother’s Day by taking a journey back through<br />
history. We look at mothers we admire, from J. K. Rowling to Kate Sheppard,<br />
all of whom have shown that you can defy the odds and achieve greatness<br />
when you put your mind to it.<br />
With the cooler weather arriving, we have endless tips on how to prepare<br />
your surroundings. Get inspiration from our mood board that embraces<br />
winter warmth by showcasing merino knits and lush interiors. Our living<br />
feature explores alternative ways to heat your home and create a peaceful<br />
environment. For interior inspiration, turn to our house feature on page 22 and<br />
see how the old and new worlds have been combined in a rebuilt Fendalton<br />
home.<br />
With duck-hunting season opening on the first weekend of <strong>May</strong>, we are<br />
rejoicing in North Canterbury. Luci Morris takes some time out to explore<br />
the region and finds some surprising treasures just a 30-minute drive from<br />
Christchurch. Our food news section previews a scrumptious duck recipe from<br />
King Of Snake and, if you are lucky enough to be invited to a shoot this season,<br />
we suggest schooling up on your etiquette on page 80.<br />
When it comes to fashion – as always – we have you covered. This month's<br />
fashion editorial highlights the season’s best ensembles, with a backdrop of<br />
Christchurch city. Prepare for you winter blues to be blown away.<br />
