I was very pleased to run into Courtney at Sass & Bide a few weeks ago. Each time I go to Australia, one of the first things I do (other than see and annoy my lovely new family) is to head to the...
Of all the times I’ve been to Melbourne, this February was the first time I went to Queen Victoria Market, affectionately known as Vic Market to the locals. I love markets. When I was good (whi...
Time is ticking! I have to pick the final few photos for my upcoming To The Nines exhibit at the Boston Center for Adult Education. So here’s the questions, while I have my favorite photos I...
I’m in Melbourne where it’s high summer. I’m loving the change in scenery and weather. Though it’s warm here, Melbournian women sure love their black (more on that later). ...
Who says you have to have a traditional handbag? Why not convert a soccer ball/football into a bag? I spied this one bag at the Chloé Spring 2012 show. Talk about a DIY project! Speaking of proj...
I’m currently hat crazy. I love the look of them; they add the slightest bit of panache to my winter wardrobe. It was a treat to see the recent video from Bill Cunningham on how NYC la...
Boy did we get snow in Boston this weekend! This of course translates to: “Darn it! I have no photos to share this week. Arggggggghhhhhhh!!!” Saturday was a quiet day style-wise since ...
Last week, I showed a photo of my aunt Nirva. This week I’m sharing photos of her beau, Clodel who would become my uncle through marriage. This photo, along with Nirva’s p...
Collar tips are slowly making their way back, though those who love all things western/cowboy inspired would say they never truly went away. I’ve seen them online and in magazines. In Boston,...
Around the holidays this year, I visited my aunt Nirva (in the above pictures). Nirva* throws a mean party each New Year’s Day and this year was no different. Honey, a new and enthusia...
I ran into Toni last week. I’ve been in browns, blacks or cream this winter. Earth tones are attracting me quite a bit this year. I forgot to ask Toni about her Love ring. Here’s one ...
We had a particularly nippy day in Boston yesterday. Because of the cold weather, I decided not to bring my camera with me. Low and behold everyone was smartly layered. I’m not making the sa...
Happy New Year! I’m coming off of about a week of doing absolutely nothing. Glorious days of no make-up, no appointments, no emails, no Twitter, no blogging…well, there was that one pos...
My mum is heading to Haiti today (where it is nice and warm) and my sister is enjoying Australian summer. *Sigh* I’m enjoying the holidays, but I do think wistfully of warm weather. With that...
Hope you have a wonderful holidays, everyone! XOXO , Tini.
Some people mix patterns and colors so well. I love this photo. Plaid and flower print and mustard yellow? Who would have thought it? But it works so well! This is a great way to keep a pep in yo...
In my mind, green goes with everything. Yup, green is a neutral in Tini land. After all, green leaves never clash with the blush pink of peonies or with nearly midnight colored tulips. The only is...
It’s finally feeling like December weather. Brrrrr! Do not despair, though you can still look very cute. I took this photo when the weather was relatively warm, but you can keep the tenets of...
Everyone wears brown in Madrid….oh, and red too. More on red later.
As soon as we came back from Madrid, a nasty cold hit me. This relentless cold has had me going to sleep a wee bit early every night—say 6 or 8pm. As such, blogging has taken a back seat to l...
I would venture to guess that Madridians love the color red. It’s all over the place in Madrid. I’m working on a video that I’ll share with you soon so you’ll see what I mea...
Madrid!Madrid!Madrid! The first time I went to Madrid was eons ago. When I was living in France, my roommates and I boarded a bus from Marseille aaallll the way to Madrid. Man! That was an intermi...
It’s style profile time again! We have Rebecca Pacheco aka Om Gal joining us this time around. I looove Rebecca. She is one cool girl all around. And since we’ve been running int...
The weather has been so warm. It’s all perfect for style-hunting because I get to catch people not swaddled in coats and multiple sweaters. I ran into Natalie last weekend as we moseyed aroun...
Hullo Everyone! Hope those of you who are stateside had a very happy Thanksgiving. I think I’m still trying to recover from all the eating. We have a fridge full of yummy leftovers. Now back t...
I was heading to the post-office this Saturday when I ran into this gentleman. Doesn’t everyone wear a three-piece suit on Saturdays! I was wearing corduroys, a button down shirt and a trench ...
Sometimes even from the back, some people are recognizable. Can you guess that it’s Logan? Hope you have a wonderful weekend planned. We’re going to start getting ready for Thanksgiving...
My beauty secret, which isn’t such a secret now because all my cousins and sister use this tip: Revlon Super Lustrous Creme Lipstick 720. Rub a little bit on one wrist and use a finger ...
Tiffany’s opened a new store at the Mall at Chestnut Hill this past Friday. They invited a few folks to have breakfast to check out their new digs and to of course try on a few jewels. I was so...
As much as I love looking through my family photos, I love looking at Honey’s family photos even more. While in Australia, Honey unearthed a gazillion family photos. I simply had to share them...
