Topped off with Karen Walker sunglasses and a hand-made necklace, Rachael’s outfit proved once and for all that sometimes, less actually is more.Name: Tom Withnall | Age: 17 | Occupation: Student at Wellington College | Favourite Wellington shops: AS Colour and I Love Ugly |Tom was looking way too cool for school when FishHead spotted him sunning himself in Civic Square, wearing a lobster-printed Tommy Hilfiger T‑shirt, Calvin Klein shorts and Adidas sneakers. Tom’s outfit was topped off with a cap from Good As Gold, a backpack from an online store and a pair of awesome striped socks, courtesy of mum, of course.Name: Kylie Soo | Age: 23 | Occupation: Accountant | Favourite Wellington shops: Marcs and Country Road | Kylie was enjoying a sunny lunchbreak on the waterfront when FishHead spied her stylish corporate outfit.
