While it has been a privilege to run such an inspiring and highly-regarded digital publication all these years, like us, some of you who have been here since the beginning may feel a touch of nostalgia for the early days of blogging—the intimacy and sense of community.

At TIG, we’ve proven ourselves masters of reinvention, weathering the rise of social media that many thought would spell the end of blogging. Not only did we survive, but we evolved and adapted. Now, it’s time for our next transformation.

This new endeavour will be an introspective exploration into the human condition through thought-provoking essays and personal narratives. Drawing from life in London, we’ll examine profound insights about our inner selves, wellness, personal style, and the multifaceted experiences that shape our existence. Through insightful, soul-searching writing, we aim to facilitate self-discovery and shifts in perspective—subjects that may not fit with the aspirational and aesthetic-driven content of TIG.

In this new space, you’ll also be able to engage with our content through the comments section, and talk about things like we used to. We know you’ll love this new project and we can’t wait to get to know you. While our attention is focused elsewhere, we still intend to post updates here from time to time.

As you know, creating inspiring content requires an incredible amount of time and energy. After years of publishing free content on TIG and Instagram, we are delighted to have this new way of sharing our ideas without relying on ever-changing algorithms or sponsored posts. It’s time to evolve, offer something new, and this new space is entirely funded by subscribers whose support directly powers our work.

If you can not afford a subscription, not to worry—being accessible to all of our readers is important to us, so we are committed to keeping the years of free content here at thisisglamorous.com available to everyone for the time being.

If you’d like to support this endeavor, we offer 3 subscription options: Monthly ($5), Yearly ($50), or Founding Member. Please select whichever suits you best. We’re truly grateful to those who have already subscribed—your enthusiasm means a great deal. A special thanks to our annual and Founding Member subscribers for your significant show of support in this new venture.
