Out & About // Oh What a Saturday!
Last weekend was murder. I don’t know why but it was THAT much harder to get out of bed to do anything at all, and yet, it was probably one of the busiest weekends I’ve had in a while. Because…life. I kicked Saturday off with a trip to Vanity Fair with my co-workers Alina and…

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…

Mini Haul // We Dream In Colour & Sanianitos
Moar shoppeeeeeng! Since I can remember, jewellery line We Dream In Colour has been on my radar. Trinidadian-raised designer, Jade Gedeon, does lovely, delicate jewellery. She’s sold her jewellery all over the world, including in Urban Outfitter locations. Taken from the We Dream In Colour Website: We Dream in Colour is a collection of hand…

Lush Kingdom
I was first introduced to James Hackett through my boyfriend – a fan of his artwork. So when I heard that James Hackett was entering the ‘world’ of fashion I was intrigued, to say the least. I knew him primarily as a digital artist, so I really wasn’t sure what to expect. I, of course,…

Mini Haul, Because It’s Christmas // Chejo & Lotus Wares
Maybe I’m using the Christmas thing a bit too much now. There’s only so many ‘presents’ you could actually buy for yourself before the excuse starts to morph into something more along the lines of ‘I’ve started and now I can’t stop’. I’m a runaway train. Clearly. This isn’t all of the items I’ve acquired…

Haul // Total Local Saturday
Well today has been super long (and it’s not even 4pm yet). Woke up at 5:30 to go get my workout in at the Arbanya Bootcamp which is run by ChauFIT in conjunction with my gym Studio W. I’m not much for dirt and grass but since I started this bootcamp – which is in…

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…
