New Acne wallet

This is one of the things I got at Sweden, and my favorite one. This wallet is really handy, as you can save your cards and money and hold it on your neck as a neckless. Practical and fashionable.



Here wearing it and a vintage sweater which I also got at Stockholm.

My semester abroad in Florence

So basically these past 5 months, I've been living and studying at Florence, Italy. My classes are now over. I was studying at Lorenzo de' Medici, taking only fashion related courses (my passion). I loved every single class, and I also loved my teachers. They were really cool and knew everything about the fashion industry, as they have worked in it.
Florence is a beautiful city, and there are so many things to do. The nightlife is pretty descent. In this picture, I'm with my swedish friends Amanda, Angelica & Elin at Moyo.
I met so many wonderful people here, from all over the world: USA, Sweden, Mexico, Brazil, Spain, etc. I made friendships that will last a lifetime. I am a little sad that I'm leaving tomorrow to Mexico. I will miss this town and my friends.

Savage Beauty: McQueen's exhibition at the Met


Here is a guided tour of the latest Alexander McQueen's exhibition at the Met in NYC. I love how every piece has a meaning, and the way he portrayed that into the clothes was completely astonishing. I am so upset I couldn't visit this in person. But this video is pretty well done, and it explains the meaning of everything.

Stockholm

I have been so lazy and haven't posted anything lately. This past couple of months I have been living ans studying at Florence, Italy. But I will tell you all about later. This post is to tell you about one of my latest and best trips ever. I met 5 gorgeous Swedish girls while I was studyng at Florence, and after finishing with our courses, they invited me to spend some days at Stockholm. Their hometown.

I stayed with one of my best friends now, Amanda. She is the most amazing person in the world. We share so many interests, and I love that she is very fashionable but down to earth. A hard quality to find in today's girls.

We did so many things while I was there. First they took me to the south of the city, to check out the stores and boutiques. Then, it was the national Swedish day, and we went to Skansen, a beautiful park where they have the traditional swedish houses and animals. And that night, Amanda's family prepared a traditional swedish dinner for all of us, which was delicious!

After that, they took me to GrönaLund, and amusement park, located at the river shore. We had so much fun up there, we were like kids again. And the last day , they took me to downtown to do some shopping (my favorite hobby). We did the swedish shopping tour: Weekday, Acne, H&M (of course), Beyond Retro, Åhléns and many more. I was super excited! And I got myself pretty cool stuff, I will show you later.
In general, I had the best time of my life in Sweden with my lovely friends Amanda, Angelica and Elin. I love them so much, and I won't see them in a while :( I really hope I have the chance to go back to Sweden to visit them again.
