Color Revolution SXM (Part Un)
So what exactly do you do when your editor calls you and asks you if you can go to St. Maarten to cover one of the most talked about fashion events for the year? There is no choice. You say yes. You plug in for a vacation day, make sure your passport has some months left,…

Out & About // Off Menu
Oh Fanatic Kitchen Studio…I just can’t quit you. Ha. Jk. I never tried to quit you. It’s time for a run down of round 2 of that delightful dining experience – Off Menu. Chefs Peru and Juman had an interesting ingredient combination to tackle this time around with nutmeg and mango being the two selected…

TRESemmé 7 Day Keratin Smooth Giveaway!
Who doesn’t love a giveaway? No one…that’s who. And today I have a fab TRESemmé 7 Day Keratin Smooth Treatment System to give away to one of you lucky ladies (or gents…because an alarming number of my male friends apparently get keratin treatments). I’ve had no experience with keratin, because I was born with annoyingly straight hair and…

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

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…

Beauty Bomb // March Birchbox
Hot on the heels of my February Birchbox (which, to be fair, was quite late), was…you guessed it, my March Birchbox (so yes…I’m posting this late). Now I’d ruined the surprise for myself and snuck a peek at the products I was getting for March – slightly underwhelming, but that’s the nature of this subscription…

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…

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…
