Her column focused on beauty, fashion, makeup, skin care, health and wellness.[5] She was also the face of the magazine and appeared on the cover of the online magazine's May and November 2007 issues.[6]

Dimakos' expertise as La Chic Fashionista stemmed from her past experience in the news media as Entertainment Anchor and Live-Eye Reporter for First Local's Mississauga Edition broadcast on Rogers Television, her involvement in several indie films and music videos as both an actress and makeup artist, and her career as a beauty, fashion, and lifestyle model.[4]
