I hate ironing

I really do. Thank the Lord for non-iron shirts, dresses, tops… the world is your non-iron oyster. As for the items that do crease, their fate in this house is to join the big pile in the airing cupboard. Yep, they keep piling up until there’s no room left — not even for a handkerchief. … Continue reading I hate ironing

From ‘Perfecting’ to Humanizing

I like perfection, especially the energy involved in making something good, greater. There is beauty in zooming in to check every detail and assembling team efforts from different specialties. Advertising used to love perfection, promoting idealized models and lifestyles. The norm was to portray flawless scenarios for people to desire. Between us, I wanted to … Continue reading From ‘Perfecting’ to Humanizing

January needs a “Queen of Speed”

January vibes. I find the word "vibes" and January itself a bit double-edged. Are the vibes good or evil? It all depends on the context and the news you get. This January seems a bit saturated with both. 2025 started with the red carpet news celebrating the Golden Globe winners followed by devastating wildfires spreading … Continue reading January needs a “Queen of Speed”

Booking a holiday

Last day of school for my girls and if you know me well, you should already know that I'm Mrs. last-minute plan so here I am looking for random places to discover (with a good deal, of course). Sponteaneous, intuitive...I would say. Some will disagree with my lack of planning but let's stick to the … Continue reading Booking a holiday

Pigeon is fed

As Creatives, we spend hours and days (tbh months) creating a portfolio website. It all starts with the search for a template that nobody has used before, the impeccable Home/About/Contact that will set the trend, the ever-evolving Bio telling your +10 years of experience in a sentence, and naturally: the content. Pick 5 or 6 … Continue reading Pigeon is fed

2024 is not too late

1st of March 2024. Wait... are we in March already? Time is slipping away. Regardless of the month, I keep thinking is 2024, we are almost halfway through the Ocean Decade [2020-2030] and that's scary. If you haven't heard of it, we are in a key decade to make radical changes to preserve the ocean … Continue reading 2024 is not too late

Awakening the Creative Strategist

Self-proclaimed Creative Strategist as of last week. Why Not?! Apart from being a Writer and a Sr Creative, I want the world to know {even at Pitcairn Island, the most remote island} that I'm up for a Creative Strategist role. Why is that? a. You can blame International Women's Day posts for popping on my … Continue reading Awakening the Creative Strategist

I was Vikki Ross for a day

Not today. Today is Vikki's bday which means it's officially #InternationalVikkiRossDay (party, bday cake emoji). Keep forgetting your best friend's bday (even with a Facebook notification), disremembering your Mum's age, or muddling your kids' names but... never ever forget 22.10.22 I had the honour to be Vikki for a day, not like the 'Single White … Continue reading I was Vikki Ross for a day

Lively time

Last summer I went back to Colombia after 4 years. Yes, four years of flight cancellations due to Covid-19. People couldn't believe I hadn't seen my family for such a long time, it sounds mad when I see my British family almost every weekend. I guess technology works in my favour and change is an … Continue reading Lively time
