SubscribePhotographed by Maik Kanyanga Going minimal is not always the easiest trend to follow, especially when your wardrobe consists of mostly vintage pieces and equally as eclectic accessories. My Minimal look is usually one bracelet instead of eight or wearing one print instead of two. As we prepare for a new season, how does a fashion [...]

“Utility Chic”
Taking Spring’s Utility Chic into Fall! I found this great men’s shirt from H&M in my favorite color of the season…Beige. I just love the way the shirt fits and when buttoned at the collar, the look is instantly more masculine, but still very cool. I also wanted to mix in some femininity to the [...]
“Sailing Ahead”
It’s the final days of Summer and time to say goodbye to some of our favorite trends! After spending a weekend by the sea and charming Riviera villages, I thought I would pay tribute to the Summer months and a final tribute to the “Mariniere”. Sailor one-piece,Gat Rimon, 95 euros (Carre Prive), Bikini top, 9.95 euros (H&M), Sunglasses- [...]
“Haute Couture”
Ahhhhhh! It’s that time of year where one can almost feel the luxury in the air! Fall Couture 2011 came and went and the thought of all the hand sewing, time, and tears…makes me want to be reincarnated as a one of those dresses. Some designers went back to classic couture shapes, others tested new [...]
“Falling for Fall”
I am literally melting away in my apartment and can’t stop thinking about the Fall collections hitting stores soon! Bianca Jagger inspired High-waisted trousers, Beige oversized Coats, crazy old-lady prints, men’s suiting, long skirts, and the most fun look…”the great outdoors” (I’m obsessed with all the shearling coats, wedged trekking boots, and Parka jackets) While [...]
“Jet Set”
When packing do not forget the lace! This look is all about looking Jet Set chic when hitting the beach and inspired by some of Ibizia’s trendy beach spots I frequented during my travels. The lace skirt is one of my favorite new pieces of the summer and is actually very easy to wear when [...]
“A Day at Castel Plage”
Spending a Day at Castel beach is one of my favorite things to do while in Nice. I love the “Art Nouveau” style entrance and paintings done by the famous “BEN” hung from its walls. The set up is beach chic and the view is as superb as their menu. One of the perks of [...]
“Just Beachy”
The below pics are actually a continuation of what we shot at CoCo beach for the July issue of “That’s Nice” magazine. The theme is still “Beachy” and the look is modern Gypsy. I am obsessed with little floral dresses since moving to the South and think the summer mini is the best way to [...]
“Neon Sunrise”
I am still away in Malaysia and absolutely boiling in the 90 degree heat! My few days here have been VERY relaxing and the people from the island have been more than kind during my stay! I am trying to take as many pics as possible and will post them when I get back to [...]
The Old Town in Nice has an abundance of tiny shops selling everything from Nice Tee-shirts, key chains, to beach bags. However among the bric a brac, are tiny boutiques that rock and one of my favorites is Antic Boutik on rue de la Prefecture. They carry brands like Surface to Air, APC, Sessun, Zoe [...]
