This month we got the chance to sit down with Nicole Nordin. Nicole is CEO for Alline Agency, part owner of the popular shoe brand Inuikii and a mother of three. We are so impressed & inspired by her positive energy that she spreads around her and of course, her entrepreneurial spirit.
Classic with a twist of rock occasionally. I love to pair classic pieces, like the perfect pair of denim, with something ”extra” like a shirt with an aesthetic edge or a great coat. I’m always on the go, so practical outerwear and comfortable shoes that I can walk in all day are essential. Furthermore, I tend to adapt my style to where I’m traveling; more tailored in NYC, bohemian romantic in Paris and definitely bringing colors and fun prints to Milan.
There’s simply not one thing or trend to follow. I think that there are no rules in fashion – you set your own! This spring, I’ll let my travel destinations and mood decide what I’ll be wearing. One thing is sure though; every day is extra and our life is our runway – so make sure you dress the way you feel comfortable with and keep doing you.
INUIKII Shoes! They are my go to for any situation and I always feel comfortable in them wherever I go and with whomever I meet. INUIKII has a way of playing with materials creating shoes that can really transform a look (and mood!). The shoes are practical, yet fun with shapes and eye-catching color combinations making any look interesting. Also, as I’m a partner of the brand, of course it means a lot to me wearing my own label.
I love cooking and eating nutritious food – acai bowl is a favorite that I make every morning (or even have for dinner). I work out to be stronger and healthier and to maintain a high energy level to keep up with an active lifestyle. Balance between work and my kids is key to me and I hope that I spread a good vibe in my companies while influencing my children to follow their passion and dreams in life.
I want to live every day to the fullest! I’m a high-energy person with a happy mindset. I move prestige-less through life and I’m always thankful for the little things. I think appreciation is very important: focus on all the things that you have and how far you have come and always keep a healthy perspective on life’s challenges. The people in your life makes a big difference; in your energy, confidence, ambition and mood. Choose to surround yourself with those who lift you up, encourage and inspire you. Also, working with something that I have a passion for is key for maintaining energy and inspiration.
MANURÍ– every dress is a dream! You always feel chic and feminine in MANURÍ's highly-curated design. Julianna Bass– tailoring that offers a classic style with a twist; always keeping it elegant. Love the modern cuts and the ready-to-wear pieces are perfect to wear from appointment to cocktail. Eleven Six – the coziest, yet coolest knits I've worn. I've never gotten so many compliments for a knitted sweater before. Fond of the way that Eleven Six produces in a sustainable and ethical way.
