Shop Via Nero
It’s funny. When I started ChicpeaJC, the intent was to predominantly write about fashion and stylish people in Jersey City… and it’s almost become a rare thing I write about. Since I do love fashion so much, I decided to get back into the swing of things for the year 2017. A few months ago, […]

I met our next Stylish Peep Amena on a rainy Friday afternoon in a cafe. I was sure the rain was going to hinder our photoshoot and that my photos were not going to exhibit Amena’s individual style the way that I wanted to but I was in luck. Amena was such a lovely person, […]
