In 2004 we gave up our careers and moved to the Isle Wight to open Live Like This. We started living the island dream, working with wonderful people, wonderful things and rooted in a place we loved so much. Hence the name, as it’s the manifesto for our own lives! Being a shopkeeper in the heart of an amazing community is one of the best jobs in the world.

In 2007 we opened Buff, which allowed us to expand our selection into kitchenware, homeware and gifts.

Our shops are open all year round and we are proud to be part of such a thriving High Street, full of independent businesses. If you’re on the Island, why not pop in and say hi!

Thank you for your continued support!

- Tracy, Matt, Iris, Queenie and the rest of the Live Like This and Buff team.
