Hi there!

I am a Graphic Designer with a Master Degree in Branding and a huge passion for fashion, lifestyle and travel. Contemporary men are keen to follow new trends, so in 2013 I decided to create Trendy Dudes, a space for sharing my experiences in the fashion world. My initial idea was to build a truly inspiring portal that would contribute to the growth of modern male culture. During 5 years I had the opportunity to work with menswear brands in Brazil and also share many of my professional experiences with them.

In 2017 I was looking to expand my horizon. I packed all my best outfits and moved to the United Kingdom and that choice changed my life forever. But as any foreign, it took time for me to adapt to the new reality and the blog had to stay in ”stand by” for a while. In 2020 a deep desire to update the website came up stronger than never. But a rebrand was necessary. Now I am a part-time blogger and I work on generating original, creative and visual content for my social channels.
