The second installment of our exploration of people and spaces brings us to stunning Goa,and all the artists and change makers who call her their home. A celebration of young voices,their journeys and dreams, cool fashion, and conversations around art and music, make this edition of NUON X GOA definitely the one to watch out for
They are cool, eclectic, electric, and unabashedly unapologetic. From music and art to building tasteful watering holes for Goa’s like-minded changemakers, Fatema(@iamdiscokid), Osheen Siva(@osheen.siva), and Nishant(@discoman), the three faces of NUON X GOA, are a dream team.
Fatema aka Discokid is a musician and DJ based out of Goa, who loves to be inspired by thesounds of nature, the serenity of Goa, and, well, Disco! Young and fashionable, the goal of making music is to spreadlove and happiness, and she constantly strives to do that – behind the decks, or with an ukulele. Individually, her personal fashion is stylish and laidback. You will spot her often in casual tops for womens or women tshirts, paired with old-school jeans for womens.
If you love Fatema’s personal style, you should definitely indulge in retro denims or flared and distressed jeans for womens from NUON by Westside. Pair them with understated women tshirts and maybe layer up with cool cropped jackets. If you aren’t a fan of denims-and-tees, may we interest you in jumpsuits for women? Jumpsuits for women are a great alternative to the tees-and-pants look, and also if you are bored of dresses.
Osheen Siva is a multidisciplinary artist and muralist who is soaking in the Goa sun these days. Fromrich colours to bold strokes, her works exude roaring feminine power, inspired by her explorationsaround the country. In Goa, she seeks out stillness, maybe an isolated cliff top for a stunning sunset,to energize and batteries and find inspiration. Bold and uninhibited, Osheen’s personal style is powerful and statement. How about a denim-on-denim look for you too? Check out cropped denim tops for womens, and pair them with your favourite style of jeans for womens. You can also pair graphic printed women tshirts with denim shorts, or check out statement tops for womens that will work beautifully with denims, and a denim jacket as a cool layer. How about edgy jumpsuits for women, if you want to really stand out in a crowd? Whatever you do, don’t forget to accessorize.
Nishant launched Grind Bar, his baby project in Goa, to create a welcoming space for the young and restless in Goa cool culture district. Nothing brings people closer than great coffee and conversations, and that’s exactly what Grind Bar’s motto is. Warm and welcoming, you will always find a friendly face at this joint. Chill, casual, and laidback, like Nishant, you can never go wrong with black. Guys, keep it simple with a solid or printed tee, your favourite dark denims, and maybe a jacket or shirt as a layer. Simple accessories recommended.
