A BIG FAT UPS!

I have to be honest with you guys, I found myself out of stock. I haven't had time to prepare material for the blog. I love my new job, but it has consumed most of my time.

I was lucky enough to find this look saved on my blog files. This dress and vest are from "Dress Code Guatemala". I love maxi dresses, they are so easy to wear, this ones is backless with long sleeves, which makes it even more fun to wear.

I think what I like the most about maxi dresses are that with a nice pair of heels, they make me look super tall. (Who doesn't like being tall?)

I really hope you like this emergency post!

Sunny Salmon Knit

I love to wear shorts, but sometimes it gets kinda boring wearing them with just a top. I get this feeling like I can style them a lot more! 

The other day I visited the boutique "BOHO", here in Guatemala City, and I found this amazing salmon knit dress. The minute I saw it I knew it would go perfect with shorts and a crop top or in this case a sports bra. Plus it's super comfy, the length is splendid and the color enhances my sun kissed skin. So I had to have it!! 

BOHO has a lot more pretty, feminine dresses. You girls should definitely go visit!! It's truly a cozy, beautiful boutique!!

I don't want fortune cookies, I want fortune walls..

Last Saturday I had the fortune to attend an art event, in one of the most awesome abandoned buildings in Guatemala city. There were a lot of really good artists who exposed their latest pieces, I really enjoyed almost all of the exhibitions. (Yep, I changed my hair color!)

I bumped into my awesome friend Mono del Espacio, who introduced me to Melvin. The amazing artist who filled with fortune and beauty a dull old wall, in front of all us who visited his exhibition.

For this event I chose to wear a smart outfit: a comfy pair of distressed black jeans, a coke t-shirt and a pale pink faux leather jacket, I just bought a couple of days ago. I love to wear faux leather jackets for rainy days, they really protect you from the rain without getting ruin, plus they always make you look like a rock star.

I also got my mani done a couple of days ago, with a Pollock paint inspired nail polish. It went perfect for the event so I was showing it a little bit off.

This awesome photos were taken by the super talented Mono del Espacio, check his tumblr out to see all the photos from that fun day!

All I have is denim in my head.

One of my personal fashion challenges was to rock a cap. For me it's extremely hard to wear hats or caps, cause my head it's to big, so I feel silly wearing them.

This cap is special though, that's why I gave it a shot. It's from Zoad 1, I really love that it's made of a cool washed denim with leather details. Plus it's super comfortable and best of all it fits my big head properly.

I wanted to wear a simple outfit, so I mixed my Zoad cap with an oversize knit sweater, a skater neoprene skirt and a classy pair of ankle straps. These shoes gave the whole look a feminine and sophisticated touch.

This is how I think I rocked a cap, I hope you guys like it!

Waltheria for rainy days

Thanks to the lovely anon who wrote me a couple of days ago, I am going to write a few posts of how I dress for grey rainy days, wearing shorts, skirts and dresses.

I think the best way to dress for rainy days is by adding layers to your outfit. By layers I don’t just mean adding a jacket or coat, it can also be stockings or leggings. These ones look really good with shorts, skirts and dresses. (Personally I don’t like to wear leggings unless I’m going to my yoga class, but I do wear stockings a lot.)

For this outfit I based it on this great shirt by Waltheria. I mixed it with short shorts and some black stockings underneath.

For the shoes, I wore my trusty chelsea ankle boots. These boots have the power to look great no matter what I wear them with! Besides, there is nothing I hate more than getting my feet wet, so the best way to avoid this, is wearing boots, boties or pumps.

I also wore my fantastic C'santos necklace to add a little pop of color to the whole outfit.

 

It was a look really easy and fun to wear, it kept me warm and comfortable the whole day!

The printed Kimono

My dad gave me this kimono last year for my birthday. He's always trying to make me wear bright colors and bold prints. I must say he has great taste, but it's not easy wearing his presents.

Wearing this bold kimono is no exception!
When I wear bold trendy pieces I like to mix them with basics in neutral colors, so this is how I usually wear this kimono.

 

I wore a super basic look underneath, a black tank top with denim shorts and nude ankle straps.

I like to wear all my dad's presents, no matter how colorful they are. We have had a strong connection, since I was a baby and I still love to be daddy's little girl! 

Special thanks to Pablo Estrada Segura for the lovely photos!

Denim on demin

First of all, I'm really sorry for the delay! I had some trouble organizing myself this days, but here I am!

For tonight's post I want to share with you one of my favorite combinations of all times: The 90's classic, denim on denim. I think the coolest mix you can pull off, is wearing a light denim shirt with light jeans. It creates an awesome effortless monochromatic look.

For this look, I wore some acid wash cropped jeans and mixed it with a light denim shirt. (This shirt is so special, it was my mom's back whe she was about my age.) I wanted to keep it simple and organic so I chose to wear it with white accessories.

I adore how cropped jeans, or pants in general, look with pointy pumps. My legs look longer and slimmer, it simply looks incredibly classy. 

This is how I wore another simple, comfy and effortless look, hope you like it!!

Thanks a lot Pablo Estrada Segura for the amazing photos!!

The big black panther sweatshirt.

One of the most versatile and easy to wear piece, has to be the amazing sweatshirt. It literary goes with everything. You can either wear it down or wear it with a more polished chic look.

For this look I wanted a polished look but with a fresh more casual vibe.
I chose one of my favorite sweatshirts, It's black, comfy and has a big panther, what's there not to love?
The trick to create a chic look, is to add allure to it. And by that I mean adding pieces you never imagine them to go with a sweat shirt. For example:

 1. A statement necklace, It adds a more polished look.

  2. Add a trendy bottom, this gives a cool vibe to the whole look. It can be a trendy skirt, jeans, trousers or even overalls. It depends in wich direction you whant to go. I wanted a more casual and cool vibe, so I chose a trendy pair of jeans.

  3. Finish it up by adding a simple pair of heels, I love to wear minimal ankle straps, they always make my outfits look perfect!

I think what I love the most about the sweatshirt is, that they never go out of trend, no matter what I always have an effortless look, plus there is nothing more comfortable than wearing sweatshirts.

Thanks a lot for reading!

The perfect match

One of my ultimate favorite texture combination is the classic leather and denim. It doesn't matter which pieces are, if one is denim and the other one is leather, I know I am going to have a great outfit, for sure.

What I love the most about this mix is that is for every one!! You can adapt it to your personal style and make it your own.

For this look I wanted something fresh, comfortable and simple. I wore a light washed denim shirt, I fold over the sleeves a little, to make it look more effortless and casual. Also I wore my sporty leather mini shorts, this ones have mesh on the sides, making them look super cool.

I have to say, I have an addiction with the sports trend, every single piece in this trend not only has the super comfortable factor, but also adds a super cool vibe to every outfit you wear it with. I call it the super trend, plus it goes well with every type of body.

To add a little allure to the look, I decided to wear my studded ankle strap sandals. I love to wear heels with shorts, cause they make my legs look super long. The trick to look good with heels and shorts is to wear heels with ankle straps, booties or pointy pumps. Never with platform pumps, gladiator heels, knee boots, or peep-toe pumps. For me these are a don't, they make me feel tacky.

This outfit was so easy to wear, I think I might repeat it more than once. Changing a bit the accessories to make it a little different.

Thanks a lot for reading!!

Blue jeans, White shirt

For tonight's post I'm sharing another simple and basic outfit: The classic blue jeans mixed with a plain white shirt.

I always say, "when in doubt wear jeans." They are so versatile, no matter what, they will always look good whith anything, even with sneakers! The thing with jeans is that they must fit your body great.  I have slim legs, but that means that I also have a slim butt. So that means I get to wear any type of cut with a natural waist. The drop waist looks terrible on me from behind.

For this look I wore a light washed skinny jeans with a white silk, over-sized shirt. I love wearing skinny jeans with over-sized tops, it looks effortless and cool. If the shirt is to over-sized I like to tuck it a little inside the jeans.

I also wore a simple grey cardigan, to add a little bit more texture to the look. Plus it was a chilly  afternoon. 

To add a pop of color I wore my bold coral red pumps, they are perfect for simple outfits. They have the ability to upgrade a sort of boring outfit to a great minimal one.

I wore this look for those crazy Mondays full of work. I felt super comfortable and fresh the whole day!

The distressed denim skirt

Tonight I'm going to write about my basic denim pencil skirt. I find pencil skirts really easy to wear, they go well with almost anything.

What I like to do, when wearing a pencil skirt is:

                                 1. If the skirt is not so figure fitting like this one, I like to wear it with fitted tops.
                                 2. I always wear them with heels. So my legs don't look short. Sometimes I break
                                     this rule wearing it with some sporty sneakers, but never ever with flats.

I wore this distressed pencil skirt with a black basic crop top. This one is made of neoprene so it's really fitted, almost like a bodycon. I goes really well with any high-waisted bottom, if they aren't to short. 

I had to work that day, so I needed to wear comfy heels. This ankle straps are super comfortable, I can walk all day with them.

This look was simple and easy to wear, I must say this kinds of skirts are not very comfortable though. If you are used to give long steps when walking, you'll probably wont like wearing them. But for me they always work really well for my kind of job.
