I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

Let’s ignore for a minute that my idea of a perfect getaway is a gamecation. FPS preferably, with fingers coated in tortilla chips straight out of mega-size packets. And guacamole, LOTS of spicy guacamole. Ignore also, the fact that I live in a cabin in the grand INTERNETS, and know the land like the palm of my hands. I tweet by day, herd trolls by night. I own a motorcycle named Netflix and we tour the lands like a renegade, Breaking very, very Bad.

Shield your eyes and mind to all that and imagine, a fantasy excursion. The outrageous idea of going outdoors and smelling the grass, feeling the wind comb through your hair, and hearing the suckling sound your shoes make in the mud. Hop on a gleaming Triumph Bellevue and roar down a dirt path that leads nowhere in particular…

This is the kind of adventure I wanted to create for Barbour International: collections inspired by free spirit, curiosity for what’s out there, charged with attitude. There’s a bit of glamour in the grit too, when looked closely. I’m very excited to have collaborated with photographer Marcus Davison on this story, with huge help on the production front from Benjamin Deamer and inspiration from my editorial partner Brian Leavy, the forever adventurist.

  10. Agree that the photos are stunning but I’m really more in love with the writing. I mean who else can write such perfect sentences: “I tweet by day, herd trolls by night. I own a motorcycle named Netflix and we tour the lands like a renegade, Breaking very, very Bad.” :P

  23. Shini, you’ve been my inspiration for years. The way you always put forward these visionary, elegant, otherworldly and intelligent photoshoots but make them so distinctly you with the funny, smart, down-to-earth and honest words that accompany them (my idea of a perfect vacation is also FPS, guacamole, chips, and adventure)… you’re my heroine and spirit animal.

  24. Beautiful photos!

    stunning and soothing at the same time. That dress… looks dreamy on you and so awful on the ASOS page- apparently it has magic if you are in it. Well done!

  50. I don’t even understand how I finished up here, however I
    thought this post used to be good. I do not realize who you might be but definitely you are going to a well-known blogger for those who aren’t already.
