NICHOLE LYNEL
Nichole Lynel is a Los Angeles based Fashion Designer Photographer, Entrepreneur.
Growing up in an Upper Middle-Class family focused on education, a career in fashion was considered a long shot and frankly unrealistic. After pursuing many career paths, Nichole always seemed to go back to the moment where she discovered fashion. At the age of five, she received a set of Chanel paper dolls from her cousin with a note reading, “you have an eye for fashion.” From very early Nichole knew she wanted to make the world beautiful.
After attending a casting with friends and booking the job on the spot, she naturally pursued modeling which ultimately led her into the entertainment industry. During this time she even perfected her photography skills. By 2012, Nichole was well on her way to becoming a self-made entrepreneur despite what her family thought was her calling.
In 2014, Nichole launched a very successful Los Angeles Based online boutique grossing over a million dollars in under 3 years.
Then again following her heart she walked away and created yet another successful fashion venture.
In two weeks she created a captivating collection debuting as an opener for a Los Angles Fashion Show. Days later she leaped to further make her mark in the fashion industry, by launching her very own online brand and boutique Shop Nichole Lynel. Following with highly anticipated blog launching this spring , Nichole Lynel is on her way to a promising future in Fashion.

Kandi looked bomb in a glittery look by Mac Duggel:
Lastly, Nene Leakes unwittingly caused a bit of controversy on our IG page in her Marchesa dress.
As you may know, Marchesa is co-owned by Georgina Chapman, whose husband Harvey Weinstein was at the center of a huge sexual misconduct scandal in Hollywood. Because the situation is still fresh in our minds, it was probably not the best idea to wear the brand, but I’m sure Nene didn’t get the memo, and rocked the dress because she liked it.
What do you think?
And who do you think had the best look at the Reunion?
