Wandering Chic Time out for body and mind

Spring Summer ‘17

Wandering ChicTime out for body and mindToday, multi-tasking has become a necessity. Time has become the ultimate luxury; people desire and need the time to pause and take a

break from their crazy lives. However it is not a wild escape, it is taking a few days or a moment to wander away from everything, be it going to

a faraway beach to enjoy the sand and the water, or just taking a moment to sit by the

window to relax while your mind wanders into a happy place. It is a sense of calm and balance,

of drifting away to a good place.

Reflected on fashion, it is about dressing effortlessly, with a sense of ease and comfort.
