Over the years, one thing has become extremely apparent to me; you never really know what's around the next corner. Last weekend was a shining example of this little life observation as I found myself sitting on the press desk at Vancouver Fashion Week SS18. On arrival to Vancouver I knew that I was going [...]

The adventures of the Red Puffa: how a seasonal trend saved my sanity

People often ask me why I own so many clothes. They can’t comprehend why one little person would need three variations of the same jumper in different shades of black - and yes, there are different shades of the colour black - or why an individual with only one pair of feet would need five [...]

With the arrival of 2017, the race to a bikini body is inevitable. January, the month of blood, sweat and tears is upon us and if we are going to kill ourselves with gym workouts and a lack of chocolate, we may as well look fabulous while doing it. I have been trawling through Instagram [...]

Review: Case Company

I was approached by Case Company via email last week asking me to review their company. Not one to say no to freebies, I happily obliged and do not regret my decision in the slightest.

‘Are you a player or a watcher?’ Nerve; the must see movie of the summer

For a while now, nothing at the cinema has been particularly striking. Nothing has broken boundaries or had the ability to leave a lasting impression on audiences, the very component that fuels the cinema industry. Nothing has impressed, until the release of  ‘Nerve’.

Finding fashion through cultural restraints: an interview with student, Afifah Ahamd

Afifah has her back to the scorching sun as she lounges in a wicker chair on the terrace of Conde Nast College. She is poised, waiting for my questions with anticipation and an air of easy confidence. Dressed in a pale pink off the shoulder cotton shirt and a pair of white jeans, she oozes [...]
