'Are you heading to serve dinner?' Yes, this was the question I received when I debuted a recent waistcoat addition to my wardrobe, a fabulous black leopard print icon. I had quickly thrown together the look with an oversized white shirt, black trousers, which in fairness were giving work vibes, and of course, said waistcoat. Yes, this comment didn't exactly leave me enthused to head out for dinner for fear I'd be handed a tray. 

So, here are three ways to style your waistcoats which certainly won't leave any confusion as to which side of the table you are seated on and ensure you receive nothing but compliments of 'oh wow, you look fabulous.'

If I were to choose a word for my holiday to Corfu, it would be 'breathe'. I could also have chosen 'bliss' because it was most certainly that. I switched it off properly for one of the first times in a long time and lounged by the pool surrounded by the sea. A break from work or social media is not an indulgence, it's a necessity, so if you are feeling the need for one right now, take this as your sign to do it. We have to take care of ourselves first and foremost to present our best selves to the world and be there for others. 

Hello. I'm super excited to bring you not one but two pieces of good news in today's blog! The first part is that I’m delighted to report that this...

A day in the most amazing dress you might ever wear, declaring your love for the person you have chosen to spend the rest of your life with, surrounded by all the people you love. Enjoy every minute. Here is the best part, when your wedding day is over (or the 3 days of continued partying in my case) guess what avoids any post-wedding blues? Getting to bring the man you love home with you forever. 

Writing this blog was not on my to-do list today. I started writing to note down an idea but the words kept flowing. Perhaps they flowed because I ...

Hello everyone!! The news is out! I’m going to be a full-time vintage shop mummy!

I am making this super exciting decision two years from when Terra Vintage came into the world as an idea. Of course, I have been doing a lot of reflecting as I make this change, and I thought I would bring you in on these reflections. So in this blog, you will read more about my journey to this moment and how it feels to make this decision. 

January is here. The month of new. New year, new you, set your resolutions, make a change, do something. Well, at least that’s what we are bombarded with. 

I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t tend to set resolutions at the beginning of the year. I don’t need to as I do it every Monday. This week, I will do 10 minutes of yoga every morning, and next week, I will get up as soon as my alarm goes off. I’m a real Monday starter. Haha!

We all live in a little bubble with our Instagram accounts, don’t we? We follow what interests us and quickly convince ourselves that the bubble we have created represents the whole world.
