  • A Red House Wedding

    A Red House Wedding

    We all remember where we were on February 14, 2020, when Machel Montano married Renee Butcher at the Red House – just three weeks after the building was reopened after years of renovation. The photos were everywhere and they were stunning, and for me, they opened my eyes to a whole new possibility when it…

  • Thoughts // On Moving On

    I’ve decided to add a new segment to the blog. I noticed that my On 2014 post got a lot of positive feedback both on and off the blog…so I thought maybe people actually might be interested in reading a bit more about my personal perspective on certain things…like…life and such. I mean you could…

  • Out & About // More Vino & Carnival Pop Up Shop

    I’m desperately unprepared for Carnival. Maybe it was the short season that left me thinking I had more time to get my shit together…but I’m 21 days out and still haven’t even been to Samaroo’s! I don’t even know who I am anymore guys. I’ve been working out 6 days a week and I’ve been…

  • My Top Monday Wear Picks

    My Top Monday Wear Picks

    Monday weaaaarrrrrrr. Love it, hate it, doh care about it…Monday wear is here to stay! And I’m pretty neutral on the topic, I think everyone has the right to spend their hard earned money how they choose, and if that choice involves dropping a cool $10K on a costume, then another $1200 on top of…

    On 2014

    Good bye. This year picked me up by the feet, hung me upside down and rattled me til everything I thought I knew fell out of my mind and I was forced to pick them all up and start again. It’s hard not to get emotional writing this…and that’s weird right, because I’m sure I don’t…

  • A Christmas Tag on Christmas Eve

    1. What is your favourite Christmas Movie/s? Love Actually is hands down the one Christmas movie I HAVE to watch every single year. I also love It’s a Wonderful Life. 2. Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning? Christmas morning with my family. 3. Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?…

  • Pencil This In // Christmas Pop Ups

    Pencil This In // Christmas Pop Ups

    There has been NO shortage of shopping opportunities over the last month and a half. Since Bits and Pieces kicked things off in November, every time you turn, there has been a pop up sale or market. I’m not complaining, of course. Christmas markets are, for me, where all of this began. My first trip…

  • #RepYourHoodie

    A quick word to say I love you guys. Aaaaaaand, my girl Mel over at Trinidad Lookbook is hosting a pretty sweet #RepYoHoodie crowd funded custom apparel campaign over on Teespring.com. Basically….show your hood some love with a comfy hoodie that let’s everybody know where your roots are buried. Mine? Deep in the earth of Arima forever.…

  • Treasure Hunting // The Shop

    Treasure Hunting // The Shop

    Simply but aptly named, The Shop occupies two units at The Normandie Hotel’s quaint Market Place, which already houses gems such as the Paper Based Bookshop and Gillian Bishop’s fine jewellery store. Conceptualised as a space for local small businesses, artists, designers, and pretty much anyone with a creative passion to be able to showcase…

    Introducing // The Decorative Pillow Collection by Toni Crockett Design

    I don’t think there’s a single woman in the world who wouldn’t want her home to be as fabulously outfitted as she is. We’re blessed in Trinidad to have a wealth of interior décor stores and interior designers to bring our homes up to the standard we hold for our own personal style. One such…
