The time has come for us to gather in judgement of the September Issue covers. Content? Nah. Who has the time to trawl through 600 pages of ads? I haven’t really read a magazine cover to cover since the inaugural Porter with Gisele Bundchen. I still haven’t made it through that Gaga September Issue cover… no word […]

Another summer gone way too soon, though we’ve hardly had any of her. July was supposed to be scorching but none of that, August, the traditionally warmest month, has been okay but nothing like it was in the past. Summer? Rather its been summer-ish and a bloody tease which has me singing the blues in a […]

From the age of five to about thirteen, just before I left for boarding school, every Saturday or Sunday, mostly Sunday because I am the last minute child, I would go to the market with my sisters to get my hair done for school the coming week.

Trinidad, Cuba. A land where time stood still waiting for us to see what was left behind. Where Havana has my heart, Trinidad sips into my soul. The essence of life; authentic and dizzying, deep and deeper, history. I was not ready to leave. I have never been to a place like Trinidad and I know I never will. She is […]

“I did not come to play with you hoes. I came to slay bitch.” When I die I want this on my tombstone. It is 2:30am in London and I find myself going through a very dejá vu moment. It seems Beyonce has a connection to my sleep time because every time I try to go to […]

When its all said and done, Annie Leibovitz will go down in history as one of the greatest visionary of our time. Without question, she would deserve this honour because for years to come we will marvel at her body of work.

When I think of brunch, I think of friendships. Something about brunch says its a meal that is meant to be between friends, boozy, loud, chatty, happy, full of life and loving. Its familiar, a place you come to share the stories you know your mom should never hear, the escapades and shenanigans that make even […]

On my way into work, most every morning I walk past a cluster of restaurants in a commercial alleyway with unassuming facades, smack in-between coffee shops and a DIY store, opposite a white wall. Unappealing. That’s often the thing I find wrong about Richmond, it has slowly become a victim of its own independence, so […]

Baby sitting weekend is my favourite with my cheeky two year old nephew who talks back, claps back and asks why. A LOT. I love it. It is also my chance to be the cool fun aunt that flaunts the rules before giving him back to his parents. We keep it secret until of course […]
