Beauty Bomb // April Birchbox
These Birchboxes are coming hard and fast…I’m not sure I have the stamina to keep up with collecting one every month, so I have a feeling these posts will always be a bit…behind the times. This Birchbox was ok…a fair bit of meh in my opinion but then…so it go. I was pretty hyped about the…

Out & About // Sunday Rush
Well after the super awesome day that was Saturday, I entered into Sunday (I’ve time traveled a bit…so this refers to April 13th by the way) with some trepidation. I had around 6 articles to write and was done with all of 2, so naturally staying in bed all day with my computer on my…

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…

Beauty Bomb // February Birchbox
I was inspired to look into the beauty subscription service – Birchbox – after watching unboxing videos by one of the YT girls I subscribe to LeighAnnSays. I love samples, and I also love travel-sized anything, so it made perfect sense to me to pay a fixed amount every month to get a grab bag/box…

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,…

New Year New Phone
Got my iPhone 5S for Christmas 🙂 Golllllld of course, because everyone loves gold. My old 4S has been chugging along for two years now and while it still functions at about 70% efficiency, the battery is shot…and it’s not running as smoothly as I would like, so it was high time for some change.…

Reflections on 2013 and Looking Forward to 2014
Hey guys, Just back from NYC and trying to hammer out a Ole Years/New Years post on the blog before midnight…because my lack of posting would be twice as bad if I don’t round off the year with some notes on 2013. It was an absolutely fantastic year. Full of ups and downs, as with…
