Style Icon: Nicole Warne

Nicole Warne is stunning. I don’t know where I have been but Nicole of the blog Gary Pepper should have been featured in my Style Icon series long ago.  Her blog’s about page describes it as, ” A fashion, travel and lifestyle site dedicated to capturing beauty from the simple to the serene, Gary Pepper is the ultimate day dream.”  Day dream?  Oh my goodness, yes.  

This IMG model is in love with Chanel, Charlotte Olympia, Lancôme, YSL, and daring bold pieces and I am in love with her style. And from a techy point of view I absolutely love that her standard photo size is 950×1425 – if you are wearing amazing clothes and planning each accessory with meticulous detail give me big, glossy, high resolution photos so I can appreciate it in all of it’s glory. She is one of my favorite new bloggers. And as if I did not have bad enough wanderlust already she posts the location of each post in the blog;  Melbourne, New York, Florence, and the majority are in Paris even though she is based in Australia: 

  Elle  /  Chelsea  /  Charlotte Olympia  /  Back in Paris / Era /  Evasion  / Lumiere 

Lover  /  Dear Mr Maticevski  / Madmoiselle / Rolan Mouret / Parc Dor / Precioso

And in case she needed to be more than just pretty, I love her business sense as featured in an article on The Covetuer – ” “My advice for bloggers just beginning is to have a strategy in place before launching your blog. Blogging isn’t just blogging anymore, it’s a business, and like any business you need a three-month, one-year and five-year business plan,” Nicole Warne told us. “Define your brands personality, understand your target market, invest in a unique web design, research bloggers previous case studies of how they worked with brands – the list goes on! You don’t need to work harder, just smarter.” 

My only negative, I wish she posted more frequently, I am always eager to see more, but in the interim here Instagram account is always full of phenomenal shots of her glamorous life.
