This week I’m visiting family in Ashland, Oregon. I am totally in love with this place – it just feels so peaceful. The downtown is really cute – it’s full of really cute little stores and boutiques, and everything around it is so green and beautiful. It’s full of trees and wild animals like deer, rabbits and wild turkey. The weather is quite a bit colder than the Bay Area. Yesterday we were in the 30s – 40s, but with the sun everything look even more beautiful. And I’m not complaining about the weather because this only means that I can wear my winter clothes, that I love, for a bit longer, and I’m always happy with that!
So I decided to wear:
Oversized yellow sweater. It was a present, so I don’t know where they got it from.
Black leggings from Zara
Black Converse
And, of course, my hat from H&M

Hola!
I’m so in love with all the pastel colors this spring. This time I went with a little more classic style, and I’m having lots of fun mixing and matching pastels colors. This outfit is perfect for a fun day with a friend or a date night – you can make it casual or dress it up with a blazer.

I decided to wear:
A white blouse from @maxstudio
Blush color pants @saintotropez
Light purple shoes @francosarto
Sunglasses from @Express
Watch from @DKNY

Today’s post is a little more rocker that what I usually wear. A big reason why I started this blog was to be more creative in the way I dress, to play with different clothes and to get out of my comfort zone – so I tried this new look and I love it! I have never worn Converse before I started this blog (oops not true, I had Converse on the day my husband proposed – that was the fist time. Now you know I had no idea he was going to propose – best surprise of my life!!) Ok ok, going back to my post. For this new style, I decided to wear:
H&M hat
Zara t-shirt
BCBG leather jacket
Calvin Klein jeans
Converse
Besos!!

Spring just makes me happy. We see flowers everywhere, and let’s be honest, who doesn’t like flowers??

Flowers make people happy, and I love all the beautiful clothes and colors that come with it. And of  course, flower crowns are a big part of my love for spring!

I got these overalls for a 90’s theme party and I thought I would never wear them again until I started thinking that they would look really cute for spring. It’s something different, so I thought of paring them with this…..

Of course, demin overalls from Target

Cream blouse from Gap

Flower crown from Forever 21

Ballerinas from Lucky Brand

TREND REPORT, MINIMALISM.

No Comments

Minimalism!
I am so incredibly excited about this trend that we will see in the fall of 2015. Oversized and very minimalistic outfits were shown by Stella McCartney, Nina Ricci and Veronique Leroy.
We have definitely seen this before – big time in the 1920’s in the United States. It was really interesting for me because in my research it says it was about masculinity and I think this is exactly what we are doing at this moment in time. We are so ready to break paradigm about who and what  people should wear. In this collections you can see how the coats, and the collection in general, are so big and boxy with a small and simple detail in the waist, and you can see it even being so big they are perfectly tailored for the model. I love that this trend is coming in right now when we are in a revolution where we want to be free and we don’t want people to tell us what’s for man and what’s for women.
I think we are going to see people wearing these collections in so many different ways because it is so minimalist that everyone can put their own style on it. For example, I would wear one off this coats with jeans for a casual outing or on top of a dress for a visit to the ballet. The dresses in the collections are a little more casual. Even though some are sparkling, you can dress them down and they would be perfect for more casual occasions.
The colors on these collections contain a lot of gray, navy blue, yellows and so, mismatch colors on the Veronique Leroy collection.

I know, how original – haha. It was just perfect title for this post 🙂
Today I was feeling blue. I was missing my other home (Mexico), so I decided to just get ready and try to do what I needed to do for the day without thinking about it. I wore blue and on my way back home to Pacifica. I realized how everything around me was a beautiful blue, and my clothes happened to be blue as well so I thought going to the beach and taking pictures would cheer me up. So I did, and it did!!! The ocean and the sky were so beautiful. The sun was about to set, so I got some beautiful oranges and pink together with the blue and yellow.
I wore:
Scarf from Express
Blouse from Anthropology
Pants from UNIQLO
Clutch The Clutch Company
Ballerinas Lucky Brand

I love date night. We recently moved out of the city, but we definitely try to come back as much as possible and go back to our favorite restaurants. Like I said before, San Francisco is a little cold sometimes, but this week was really nice – even late at night. I was excited that I didn’t need a jacket or coat, so I decided to wear:

A black and white blouse from Nordstrom

Black vest from Nordstrom

Black suit pants from Marshalls

My shoes were a present, so I don’t know where they’re from

A hat from H&M

Silver jewelry from Mexico

Hola!
Today’s post is about being comfy, chic and warm at the same time. Living so close to San Francisco, it’s amazing that I get to go up all the time and enjoy everything I love about SF. But, like we know, San Francisco has different weather throughout the day. Some days it’s cold in the morning, warm at midday and windy at night. It’s always good to be ready for that, so I always bring a coat or a jacket with me.
In this post I’m wearing:
Coat from Victoria Secret
Pants from UNIQLO
Blouse from New York company
Black Converse
Forever 21 necklace
Express sunglasses
Besitos!

Happy International Women’s Day!

My post for the day is about confidence and feeling happy with how we look with or without makeup. For me, this is a really important topic. I see so many young girls suffering because of media advertising and wanting to reach a goal that it is not even real. We have to learn to love ourselves and know that we are enough – actually, more than enough.
In the last couple of years I have come to realize what’s important in life for me. I know I’m not perfect, but to be honest, I don’t want to be, and I have realized that what I like the most about me are my imperfections because they make me who I am. I am in a good place in my life – starting new beginnings and focusing on my life and on my future. My little family is everything I could ask for and they make my heart smile every single day. Today I’m starting a new chapter with myself. I want to learn to live life even happier than I do and to live stress free. Letting people be and letting them go, stop over thinking and just doing things. Forgiving, and more importantly, forgetting. Loving like I know how and stopping to smell the roses.
This photo shoot was completely inspired by a website called rawbeautytalks.com, @rawbeautytalks on Instagram. I love the job they are doing and the amazing message for all the woman out there. Thank you for doing this for all of us.
