Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Indochine

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

ldquoI have really been into a new hairstyle lately which is easy and relaxed for summer Itrsquos a combo of bed-head and beachyrdquo says Nuy She uses TIGIrsquos Sleek Mystique Blow Out Balm on the ends after a wash and contion then after a bit of a tousle and rough blow-dry she adds Serge Normantrsquos Meta Luxe Hair Spray evenly all throughout and add tons of volume with her hands by scrunching and messing it up Nuy adds ldquoItrsquos fun easy and takes ten minutesrdquo

Nuy swears by a ldquohot pink for a bold lip which is trending this season One I love right now for its texture feel and look is Make Up For Everrsquos Rouge Artist Intense in 36 Itrsquos got great pigment concentration and is absolutely pitch-perfectrdquo

AMOREphosis

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

ldquoI have really been into a new hairstyle lately which is easy and relaxed for summer Itrsquos a combo of bed-head and beachyrdquo says Nuy She uses TIGIrsquos Sleek Mystique Blow Out Balm on the ends after a wash and contion then after a bit of a tousle and rough blow-dry she adds Serge Normantrsquos Meta Luxe Hair Spray evenly all throughout and add tons of volume with her hands by scrunching and messing it up Nuy adds ldquoItrsquos fun easy and takes ten minutesrdquo

Nuy swears by a ldquohot pink for a bold lip which is trending this season One I love right now for its texture feel and look is Make Up For Everrsquos Rouge Artist Intense in 36 Itrsquos got great pigment concentration and is absolutely pitch-perfectrdquo

AMOREphosis

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

The Girl Around Town Summer Shopping Guide is here Many of you took a gander at our holiday edition last winter and after the amazing response we received we decided it was time to do some upgrad-ing and bring our readers even further into our world welcome to GirlAT Shopping Guide 20

And the upgrades donrsquot stop there Wersquove been busy little bees over the past few months expanding to LA adding regular contributors and we even have an intern (FYI This guide would not be as beautiful without her dedication Thank you Sarah) Spring brought tons of excitement in the way of a photo shoot in Manhattan--many of those pics yoursquoll see in this guide--and a super cool branding video that showcases not only the antics of us girls around town but an army of talented actors and crew as well (Havenrsquot seen it Check it out here)

Wersquore unbelievably excited to enhance Girl Around Town and we send a GINORMOUS thank you to Mary Ann Rounseville who brought our brand to new heights with her talent and expertise MA- we wouldnrsquot be here without your amazing drive and creativity thank you

We also thank all of our loyal readers Your eagerness to read daily posts weekly newsletters or interact with us through social media has created our awesome GirlAT community Thank you and keep reading

We hope you enjoy our upgraded Shopping Guide as much as we enjoyed mak-ing it With this face-lift wersquore also instituting the guide as a quarterly affair so we can keep you up on our favorite fashions and finds each season Now we wonrsquot tell you to do this often but stop reading and get shopping

Oh By The Way While this guide is dedicated to all things we currently love in the great big world of online shopping there are two amazing companies we worked with on our video and photo shoots that wersquore obsessed with and have to gush about even if theyrsquore not available at the click of a keyboardhellip

New York Vintage is a fashion Mecca that sells pieces from the worldrsquos all-time best designers like Chanel and Givenchy and also houses a museum-quality collection in their private gallery upstairs True style devotees will make it to 21st Street in NYC to ogle or snag a great piece of history at this otherworldly boutique

Also rocking our world is Ana Lockingndash a genius designer in Madrid who was benevolent enough to lend us some couture to party in for our video The ex-quisite pieces were so much fun to wear and we cannot wait for this amazing Spanish designer to launch her line in the States Donrsquot worry wersquoll keep you posted on that for sure

Until Fall--

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

Nuy swears by a ldquohot pink for a bold lip which is trending this season One I love right now for its texture feel and look is Make Up For Everrsquos Rouge Artist Intense in 36 Itrsquos got great pigment concentration and is absolutely pitch-perfectrdquo

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

ldquoI have really been into a new hairstyle lately which is easy and relaxed for summer Itrsquos a combo of bed-head and beachyrdquo says Nuy She uses TIGIrsquos Sleek Mystique Blow Out Balm on the ends after a wash and contion then after a bit of a tousle and rough blow-dry she adds Serge Normantrsquos Meta Luxe Hair Spray evenly all throughout and add tons of volume with her hands by scrunching and messing it up Nuy adds ldquoItrsquos fun easy and takes ten minutesrdquo

Nuy swears by a ldquohot pink for a bold lip which is trending this season One I love right now for its texture feel and look is Make Up For Everrsquos Rouge Artist Intense in 36 Itrsquos got great pigment concentration and is absolutely pitch-perfectrdquo

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Indochine

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Indochine

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

ldquoI have really been into a new hairstyle lately which is easy and relaxed for summer Itrsquos a combo of bed-head and beachyrdquo says Nuy She uses TIGIrsquos Sleek Mystique Blow Out Balm on the ends after a wash and contion then after a bit of a tousle and rough blow-dry she adds Serge Normantrsquos Meta Luxe Hair Spray evenly all throughout and add tons of volume with her hands by scrunching and messing it up Nuy adds ldquoItrsquos fun easy and takes ten minutesrdquo

Nuy swears by a ldquohot pink for a bold lip which is trending this season One I love right now for its texture feel and look is Make Up For Everrsquos Rouge Artist Intense in 36 Itrsquos got great pigment concentration and is absolutely pitch-perfectrdquo

AMOREphosis

26

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

AMOREphosis

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Indochine

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

ldquoI have really been into a new hairstyle lately which is easy and relaxed for summer Itrsquos a combo of bed-head and beachyrdquo says Nuy She uses TIGIrsquos Sleek Mystique Blow Out Balm on the ends after a wash and contion then after a bit of a tousle and rough blow-dry she adds Serge Normantrsquos Meta Luxe Hair Spray evenly all throughout and add tons of volume with her hands by scrunching and messing it up Nuy adds ldquoItrsquos fun easy and takes ten minutesrdquo

Nuy swears by a ldquohot pink for a bold lip which is trending this season One I love right now for its texture feel and look is Make Up For Everrsquos Rouge Artist Intense in 36 Itrsquos got great pigment concentration and is absolutely pitch-perfectrdquo

AMOREphosis

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

Girl Around Town interviews Camille Grammer for the scoop on

creating a line of jewelry with friends

27

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

Yoursquore a Malibu girl whatrsquos your favorite spot to grab a bite in the neighborhood Malibu Beach Inn It has a gorgeous patio overlooks the ocean and it has a view of the surfers and the pier Love it

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

Our friend Mary Ann Rounseville not only made our photo shoot a reality she also brought in some

exotic pieces not yet available to American shoppers We found designer Ana Pemanrsquos backstory to be as

compelling as her fashions and sat down over Skype with the Spanish designer The designer Ana Peman

How did you get started as a designerI started working in the family business as an ac-countant in Madrid and I started partying Hard And I didnrsquot have enough outfits to keep up with the number of times I was going out so I started making clothes The people I was hanging out with loved them so I decided to take it seriously because it was something I really enjoyed I was doing accounting and at the end of the day there was nothing that was tangible So to see creative product and see how girlsrsquo faces lit up when they put something on that looked good and that they liked was something I really really enjoyed

Looking at your collections Indochine most currently where do you draw your inspirationMy lines are inspired by a need to express some-thing usually a very strong emotion As much as I did get started because of my social life it was really a way to immediately communicate something non-verbally Most of my collections are reactions to things that have happened in my life In working through a collection it becomes a process of cleansing myself I need to express my emotions and get them out This collection Indo-chine is a very pretty one because Irsquom feeling very positive and seeing a lot of beauty in people This very pretty collection came out of that because of the experiences Irsquove had with people around me You create and produce your materials in Bali how did you get started there Bali started because I was developing a line that was becoming more and more popular in Ibiza and I couldnrsquot possibly manage my manufactur-

ing needs on this island I had a friend who was producing already in Bali and she said you could make your own prints there and that it was a great place to experiment creatively so at that point I thought it would be a great idea to go over there and investigate Itrsquos been a great experience for me because itrsquos the first time Irsquove been able to see the entire process from the very very very begin-ning I had worked already within big companies where everything was linear from designing to distribution but Irsquod never seen every single aspect of the process from how the screen printing was done to how they use fish swimming in run off to ensure that the water left over from the dying process in the factory is safe and ecological these are details that passed me when I was doing small collections here (in Ibiza) Itrsquos been an incredible experience and to be honest Irsquove loved it

Your production plant in Bali looks pretty magi-cal We love that you took the reigns and moved your manufacturing plant across the world Itrsquos not unusual for people on this island A lot of resort designers from this region go to Asia to source their materials The good thing is that as a small designer without a huge backerndashI finance my collections at the end of the daymdashI can afford to do so much more in Asia I can get small quan-tities print them the way I want dye them the way I want there is an incredible amount of things you can do if yoursquore creative There are all these differ-ent techniques theyrsquore doing --these tie-dye and salt dyes and putting baking soda on the fabric to create this kinda marbling effect-- that you can ex-periment with here even in very small quantities

Indochine

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Anarsquos production plant in Bali

Thatrsquos the beauty of Bali or has been the beauty of Bali until now It is getting expensive so a lot of small designers have to think twice before they go out to see if itrsquos cost effective for them to do it

Who has better beaches Ibiza or Bali Ibiza There is nothing compared to the beaches in Ibiza and Irsquove been everywhere But the beauty of Bali is that their culture is ex-tremely interesting their mentality is extremely poetic and the way they go about their lives and value system is a relief from Europe

How do you describe the spirit of the Ibiza womanFreedom Total inhibition Ibiza is where you can wear that dress that you would never wear any-where else

Who is your audience and do you have plans for expansionI think you need to create a niche for yourself nowadays because you canrsquot do it all I know this Ibiza culture this lifestyle I know what itrsquos like to wake up in the morning and go out for lunch and all of the sudden be invited on a yacht and then go back to a beach party and to end up in a club at night This happens here and you have to be ready for it There is a way to be able to be well dressed the whole day and night without having to change or feel uncomfortable Thatrsquos my niche I under-stand it well and Irsquod like to continue it in other resort areas (In terms of expansion) Ibiza is a great place to test what styles and shapes women want and what fabrics theyrsquore comfortable in

What is your favorite part of the creative pro-cessMaking it Sometimes I start with a powerful pat-tern In that case the fabric speaks to me and tells me what to do because Irsquom expressing something through the print Or sometimes Irsquoll fall in love with a design But either way my favorite part is being shut away in my studio and draping fabrics

on a mannequin making the first piece and seeing a result

In Ibiza you live this life where you could wake up in the morning get invited to a yacht and then end up in a club that night how do you balance work and play in a world that is so full of playI have a lot of vitamins I think itrsquos possible if you make sure that whatever yoursquore doing yoursquore doing because you want to do it If you have to exert energy into things that arenrsquot flowing itrsquos impossi-ble Yoursquod be exhausted in a week But people say therersquos an energy here that you donrsquot find other places and for some people thatrsquos the magic of this island But at this point my work is my primary focus during the (resort) season so itrsquos a month and a half of intense work to make sure that every-body is satisfied And then at the beginning and end of the season I can kinda let loose a little bit So yoursquore saying we CAN have it allYou can hereCue a very generous offer from Ana for us to visit her in Ibiza Yes wersquove already accepted

We canrsquot wait for the sometimes too-structured women of the US to let loose in the flow of Anarsquos dresses and the Ibiza lifestyle Look for Ana Peman to hit Miami and more resort locales in the coming year

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

Summer Beauty Picks from Nuy Cho

Itrsquos true neon is hot this season but Nuy has been a fan of neon toes for hot weather for a long time ldquoItrsquos the tropical gal in merdquo she eplains ldquoWith a tan bright nails look wonderful with a beautiful leather thong flat or even just a simple pair of Havianasrdquo Nuy is certain you canrsquot go wrong with these limited edition polishes which were named after Indian spices

For sunny days Nuy says she loves it when women just show off their skin and natural glow She asks ldquoWhy hide it under makeup Itrsquos nice to sometimes just do a tinted moisturizer or even just sunblock and if you want to kick it up add mascara and only a hot lip perhapsrdquo One of her new go-to mascaras is CoverGirlrsquos new LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara Nuy explains ldquoIt has a nice thick wand which is great for plumping wimpy fine lashes like minerdquo

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

What part of the jewelry design process do you find most interestingI love going to gem shows and getting inspired Sometimes thatrsquos how we start a new design wersquoll find a stone that we love and then work around it

Do you have a favorite piece from AMOREphosisrsquo collections and if so what does it mean to youI love the Sea Green Chalcedony pieces be-cause they have such a light airy elegant look and they go with everything

Each of the pieces use beautiful materials from gold to semi-precious gems what stone inspires you the most and whyHmmm Thatrsquos a tough one Irsquod have to say that Aquamarine is one of my favorites It has such a peaceful serene look to it Irsquom drawn to that color

What was the genesis of AMOREphosis and how will it continue to well morph It started as a way to create something for women that gave back to children and fami-lies in need This mission will always stand as the backbone of AMOREphosis but we would love to continue expanding so that we can help our charities and others even more Wersquore in the process of designing a new collection to add to our line so look for that in the coming months

What do you hope women feel when they wear these piecesBeautiful and inspired We put a lot of thought into the stones that we choose and what they mean to us We want that meaning to come through when women wear them We also want women to feel inspired knowing that theyrsquore helping to make a difference

AMOREphosis was started by you with three friends do each of you have a specific area of interest in the company Do different collec-tions reflect the different personalitiesWe are actually all very hands on As far as the design process is concerned we are all involved in every step because we want to create pieces that we all love and would buy ourselves We also try to use the fact that there are 4 of us to our advantage Some might think that itrsquos too many cooks in the kitchen but it helps because we each represent a different perspective and market of potential buyers As far as different collections reflecting different personalities I would say that there are elements of each of us in every one

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

And on that topic wersquore a female-run business as well and we know what itrsquos like to work with your closest friends so wersquore curious are there ever any cat fights over collections Do personalities flair over the jewelryrsquos flairAlthough we have relatively similar styles there are definitely differences sometimes In the beginning when we only had one collec-tion it was pretty easy to agree on things But as we started to expand and we all became more comfortable with the process we had to learn how to handle differences of opinions For big company-related issues we all have to agree For design-related issues we have a ma-jority rule if 3 out of 4 love it it sticks

The launch party at Fred Segal looked fab are there any other boutiques that carry your collections Thanks It was a lot of fun Stylehaus on Mel-rose also carries some of our pieces

Yoursquore a Malibu girl whatrsquos your favorite spot to grab a bite in the neighborhood Malibu Beach Inn It has a gorgeous patio overlooks the ocean and it has a view of the surfers and the pier Love it
