About First Class Belongings
Nicole Reina was bitten by the travel bug at an early age. Strapped into a Trans World Airlines flight destined for New York City at just 5 years of age, it’s no wonder that she’s still jet-setting today, following her passions and fueling her infinite wanderlust.
Wildly eccentric with an old soul, Nicole’s lifelong love affair with travelling has evolved over the years to incorporate some of her other passions - fashion, architecture, culture, history, and the unique aesthetic of the 1950s and ‘60s known as late modernism. She began First Class Belongings as a way to combine all of these loves and share them with others through a curated lens.
“Generation after generation, women have been conditioned to believe that travelling alone is scary. Through my personal journeys, I hope to inspire and encourage women, both young and of a certain age, to rebel against these assumptions - to take the wheel, set sail, and choose their own adventure.”
Sprinkled with glamour, Nicole's journeys pay homage to the eras of extravagance. These memoirs convey the lost art of adventure, the allure of escape, and a genuine love of culture. Telling her story through photos and personal accounts, Nicole journeys around the world in search of fashion inspiration, cool design, vintage style, and the nostalgic joie de vivre of decades past.
