Our girl Nike is a Los Angeles-based fashion blogger who defines herself as a “nomadic soul eternally in pursuit of happiness“. I discovered this style maven on my favorite social media platform (yep, you guessed it – Instagram, lol) and I instantly realized that her page was one of the best I’ve seen in quite some time. With over 37, 000 followers and a knack for flawless photography, this chick is the epitome of class at it’s best.

If I had to sum up Nike’s style in one word, I’d simply label it as elegant. No matter what she wears – this fashionista always manages to make her threads look like a million bucks. Whether she’s uplifting neon-drenched cutout pieces or fashion-forward denim culottes, Nike is serves a gentle reminder that trends don’t have to overshadow your personal style. Her go-to pieces include furry accents, gorgeous prints and eye-catching statement pieces.

Fashion News: Ohne Titel To Shutter

This is a manic Monday in the fashion world in every sense of the phrase! In the latest designer news, Ohne Titel has decided to shutter:

NEW YORK, NY - FEBRUARY 11: (L-R) Designers Alexa Adams and Flora Gill pose for a photo backstage at Ohne Titel during Fall 2013 Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Milk Studios on February 11, 2013 in New York City.  (Photo by Desiree Navarro/WireImage)

The brand gained quite a lot of traction last month, due to the image that MAC posted of model Aamito Lagum on its Instagram—a picture taken at the brand’s Fall 2016 show.

And that autumnal assort will not go into production. Floral Gill and Alexa Adams have had trouble securing outside investors as their business has expanded, as reported by Business of Fashion.

We’ve featured the brand numerous times as celebs including Amber Rose, Adrienne Bailon, Shay Mitchell, and Jennifer Hudson are all fans.

As for what’s next for Gill and Adams? “We have at least 10 really interesting options in the works. Some plans involve working together and some do not,” said the former to BOF. “A different conversation with the customer and a different way of doing fashion,” are just some of the possibilities.

Rumor Mill: Valentino to Buy Balmain?

A while back, we reported on the various rumors that circulated in the media of Balmain’s tentative selling.  While many thought it was JUST a rumor mill, it would seem that Balmain really is looking to sell (at the hands of the current heirs to the empire, and not by the decision of Rousteing). It seems those rumors may, in fact, be true and that there may possibly be an interested party we all know: Valentino.

The Italian fashion house Valentino has reportedly offered 500 million euros (569 million dollars) to buy Pierre Balmain, according to a recent report from the French newspaper Les Echos.

Jennifer Lopez's American Idol Valentino Spring 2015 Blush Pink Bodysuit and Tulle Maxi Skirt, and Giuseppe Zanotti SandalsAmong the other possible offers, there’s a Chinese group and an American investor interested in the French brand, although names have not fully been disclosed. A decision from the current heirs has to be made by Thursday whether to accept one of the three offers.

Is this the end of the Rousteing/Balmain Army era? What will Balmain look like if it’s taken under Valentino?
