Kiwi celebrity chef Simon Gault turned from the kitchen to the bar as he launched a fabulous gourmet cocktail range.

Millwoods began as an Australian kids’ shoe brand, creating high-quality leather shoes focusing on style, comfort and durability. It wasn’t long before mums craved the same style and comfort as their kids.

To give her beautiful customers a little extra, she decided to work with Sweet Orange and share articles on fashion, styling and – shoes! You can read them in The Millwoods Journal.
