With our RUBY x Bees Up Top beehive being a core part of our RUBY HQ, whether that be inspiring how we think about structure or just thinking about how we can include our dreamy honey in anything, we truly can't live without bees & our Ru-Bees...
So, how better to celebrate Bee Awareness Month than highlighting a few of our most loyal Bee Rubettes! Moving through our loyalty levels from Buzz, all the way to Bee, they deserve a little shoutout…

Tell us about your all time favourite RUBY piece?
Firebird pants. I’ve been wearing them for years and have them in four colours. If you know me, you’ve seen me in firebirds at some point.
Something you've done recently that you're proud of?
Moving overseas. Leaving my family, friends and all the communities I know is scary, but I’m at a point in my life where I need to feel a little uncomfortable and scared… and see what emerges on the other side.
What's something you're loving at the moment?
In Barcelona’, the fake musical my friend Liam and I are currently improvising while travelling Europe. We only have about two words of lyrics written so far and you might be able to guess what they are.

My name is Kaycee and I am a self confessed RUBY addict! I hope the hubby doesn't see this article hah. It’s not good for the wallet but amazing for the self -esteem…
RUBY clothes are feminine, bright, well-fitted and make you feel so good. Ahakoa te Rahi! No matter your size!
Something you’ve done recently that you’re proud of?
Coming off the back of Te wiki o te Reo Māori, I am proud to be Māori! Share the love with Māori Language by speaking it. Kōrerotia te reo Māori!
All time favourite RUBY piece?
My all time favourite RUBY piece would probably be my Matilda Cardigan!! It’s such an easy way to dress up an outfit and I feel like I can wear it day or night.
Something you’re loving at the moment?
My new fave hobby at the moment is buying second hand clothes and altering them to fit perfectly!
All time favourite RUBY piece?
No matter the occasion I will be rocking a RUBY number for sure! A few of my all time faves - the Maude Slip, worn at Cup Day and so simple yet elegant, my Butterfly Silk Dress I wore to celebrate aroha at a wedding and last but not least the Lollo Tank & Longsleeve in black, absolutely love the frill detailing.

Tell is about an all time favourite RUBY memory.
My admission as Barrister and Solicitor of the High Court of New Zealand! I was picking up my gown and wig before my ceremony, and had forgotten a bag. Thankfully, RUBY Wellington let me into the store a few minutes before opening to grab a market bag for my attire. I was of course fully decked out in my RUBY working gal clothing, with the Johari skirt and shirt, and the Alexia blazer. My mum also rocked the Kendall Midi in Espresso for my admission!
Something you've done recently that you're proud of?
Debating has brought me so much joy, and I would highly encourage any high school or university Rubettes to get amongst.
