Hey Beautiful!
My name is Piera (pronounced Pih-rah) and I am the founder of Piera 360. I have been a professional in hospitality for the past 15 years. In that time, I have had the pleasure of working with several industry leaders and consulted for some pretty cool concepts.
I am originally from St. Louis, MO and have lived in almost every major city in the US. I’ve lived internationally as well for a time in Osaka, Japan. The concept and drive for Piera 360 is simple. As a divorced mother of a now teenager I have always looked for life hacks to save my most precious resource-time! My goal is to pass those pro tips along to you by sharing travel tips, fun recipes, and the introduction of my Piera 360 Clothing Brand.
I hope you enjoy, and I can’t wait for us to go on this amazing journey together!
XO, Piera
A picture is worth a thousand words, but the memories are priceless
travel with me…
Growing up with parents who had traveled extensively was such a blessing! Although they started traveling for different reasons (My Dad is former Navy and My Mom travelled abroad during College). They both found great value in showing my siblings and I different cultures and ways of life. That definitely sparked my interest in travel and now I love sharing the joys and beauty of travel with others. In addition to inviting you in for a peek into my experiences, I want to help you find the maximum value in your travels. How to save, when to splurge, and plenty of secrets I’ve picked up along the way! I’ll offer destination specific travel advice, stories of adventure and exploration, travel reviews, and inspiration to get out and travel the world!

shop with me…
In this age of Fast Fashion and InstaBoutiques I have at times found it hard to find the basics. I love a sheer dress as much as the next girl, but there’s nothing like finding the perfect t-shirt or (gasp) a pair of leggings that actually don’t rip in the crotch after the second wear. I have founded the Piera 360 Brand because I am extremely passionate about what I wear and I believe buying proper fitting, stylish, and high quality clothes should be a simple and affordable task for everyone. I have searched far and wide to curate pieces that you’ll love to wear that don’t break the bank. I’m starting with essentials in neutral colors that are wardrobe staples that can be worn on your next vacation and when you’re just getting on with the business of daily life.

eat with me…
The balancing act between being a Le Cordon Bleu trained Chef and a certified nutritionist is an interesting one. When I’m out and about I’m always looking for culinary inspiration. It doesn’t matter if it’s Michelin Rated or a total dive! If the food is tasty- I’m there! I’ll review restaurants in the cities I visit and in the DMV, which is where I call home. I also love to make fresh, flavorful, (mostly) healthy recipes that I enjoy in real life. I’m all about cooking, photographing, eating/drinking, and sharing. Check in with me and sometimes I’ll even show you how to save a little dough even while you’re making it- Ha! See what I did there!
