What is fashion to you?
Maybe it’s too much of a cliché, but I have to admit that fashion is everything to me. It started as a hobby, but soon became a real passion. For that reason, I started blogging and sharing my passion with the world. If you love fashion, it’ll catch you everywhere. It’s not about clothes, shoes etc. For me, it’s an art.

How does Izmir inspire your style?
Izmir has the  best climate in the world, with long summers and short winters. I take inspiration from the beautiful nature surrounding me and its colours. Also, I love how diversified the city can be in terms of its people (their influences and ethnic backgrounds). Just hanging out at my favourite spots in Izmir can be a source of inspiration.

What item you always take with you on holidays? 
I always take a classic pair of high heels. That’s my number one thing! Very useful and match everything you wear.

What do our readers need to take with them when visiting Izmir?
If you are planning to visit Izmir, take clothes you are going to be comfortable in. Don’t forget accessories, they can make the simplest outfit stand out. Also, take one cocktail dress and stilettos for those long nights.
