STYLE: Family Affairs - Coconut Vision SS14


En mi viaje a New York, fui la persona más afortunada del mundo al poder conocer algunas diseñadoras locales. Family Affairs, de la diseñadora Nina Egli, es una de las marcas a las que me siento más cercana. Me enamoraron sus diseños femeninos y con ese estilo vintage que tanto me va. Sin embargo, lo que más me enganchó a su marca son las historias que hay detrás. La propia historia de Nina ya es fascinante: de Suiza a New York, con una madre que trabajó para los Beatles en los 60. Para este verano, ha creado la colección Coconut Vision: un recopilatorio de los mejores momentos de los mejores veranos. Esos veranos que tienes en tu memoria y esos veranos que sueñas. Tomar el sol en Grecia, coger fresas en una casa de campo sueca, el cine al aire libre, flamencos, las playas mediterráneas, Mallorca, las luciérnagas, vacaciones en Roma, los mercadillos, tu helado favorito, un baño en el lago...

On my trip to New York, I was the luckiest girl in the world for being able to meet some local designers. Family Affairs, by designer Nina Egli, is one of the brands closest to my heart. I fell in love with its feminine designs and that vintage style I love so dearly. However, what hooked me to the brand are the stories behind each piece. Nina's own story is already fascinating: from Switzerland to New York, and a mother who worked for the Beatles in the 60s. For this summer, she has created Coconut Vision: a compilation of the best moments of the best summers. Those summers you keep in your memory or those summers your dream of. Sunbathing in Greece, collecting strawberries in a Swedish log cabin, outdoors cinema, flamingos, Mediterranean beaches, Mallorca, fireflies, holidays in Rome, street markets, your favorite ice cream flavor, swimming in a lake...
