but my main passion is womenswear. Before starting my blog I felt like I was drowning creatively because I really wanted to be designing for a women´s brand. So I thought if I can´t be in womenswear then I´ll create my own space in the industry by making my blog!” So, not to sound too cheesy but, the rest is history! Gemma has become well known in the blogging world for her unique style - mixing designer, high street and vintage, along with her trademark brightly coloured lips and nails! She desribes her style as “a mix between rock and hippie chic”, through her love of both eras. “I love piling on the boho jewellry, but at the same time I love to wear black leather and leopard print... so lets just say my style is hippierock chic for now!” So basically you may be wondering why we love Gemma so much? Well, not only does she have a wicked and unique sense of style and creativity, and an awesome personality to boot - she also went to school here in San Pedro! So she can technically pass as more of a costa local than most - including me!
So please check out Gemma´s blog www.fadetoblackny.blogspot.com or catch up with her again in Alter Ego next month. PS. a recommendation from me - check out her awesome hand-made and self designed “big fat clutch bags” that come in faux leather or suede! *beautiful*!xx
“These Shots were taken after work, when we had that random day of 88 degrees and I was able to wear a tank and still be good! ...oh well.. it’ll be back!”
