After a six year stint in New York City, Chanhtha has recently moved back to her hometown of St. Petersburg, and is now obsessed with uncovering the underground fashion scene in the Tampa Bay area. She's a writer/stylist with exceptional taste and a serious sense of style that's been cultivated over the years while working with various fashion publications including Marie Claire, Women's Wear Daily, Lucky and Teen Vogue. She adores hats, but lives in fear of hat hair. She falls in love every time she sees a floral print, and doesn't mind being compared to your grandma from Boca Raton. Her ultimate dream is to own a country house somewhere in Europe, and to spend her days consuming exorbitant amounts of cheese and wine. Other than that, she's just a small town girl living in a lonely world.
