With content inspired by my latest discoveries (both geographic and fashion), the platform's popularity grew both among an international audience as well as brands wishing to collaborate and publications re-sharing my content.The blog was retired when a growing career and young family meant I was no longer able to dedicate the time it deserved into its continuation.
