Some Life Lessons from Meiling @ Startup Grind TT
There are these truths that float around in your head…these persistent ‘codes’ that tug at your brain every time you behave in a way contrary to what your ‘truth’ perpetuates. For me…I feel a tug when I tell myself I can sleep in late the next day. I feel one when I tell myself I need…

Metro Magazine // Marlon James Brings His Creativity to T&T
Some of you may or may not know that I write for Metro Magazine (distributed every Friday in the Guardian). I’ve long meant to syndicate my Metro content to this blog, since I usually cover a lot of local fashion, food and lifestyle stories for the Metro as well. I’m finally starting to do so…

Treasure Hunting // New Chejo
Well something decidedly odd happened about two months ago…I won something. Now I’ve never won anything in my life – a bold-faced lie. I actually won a yellow walkman in a Dutch auction when I was in Form 1 – so let’s make that…I’ve never won anything COOL in my life. Readers of my blog…

The Making Of // My 1ndividual Aesthetic Sweatshirt
It’s been a long 7 months coming but I finally got it! The 1ndividual Sweatshirt I’ve been pining after since the Style Spirit show last year. Keegan likes playing hard to get…evidently, but persistence and semi-stalking sometimes pays off, and in this case, not only did I land my beloved sweatshirt…but I got to MAKE…
