My last day at Mexico City

 I am back at my hometown, Ensenada, Mexico. I spent a week in Mexico City doing wonderful things, such as going to Mercedes Benz Fashion Weeek, meeting my friends, and going shopping. It's been a great week. This city inspires me so much. It is so big and so diverse, and there is so much to see, that a week isn't time enough.

My last day at Mexico city I went to the Zocalo, wich is the main touristic attraction, then we visited Palacio de Bellas Artes, this beautiful art school which is really really old. Then we went to a huge botanical garden, where you could find any plant in the existence of the universe.

I wore:

T-shirt: Maison Martin Margiela x H&M
Sweater: Vintage at Beyond Retro Stockholm
Velvet pants: Uniqlo
Shoes: Converse

UNIQLO

This past January 6th. I went to the most wonderful city on earth: New York. I had never been there and I was so anxious to get to know many diferent places while I was there. My main interest obviously, was to go to designer stores, department, and vintage shops; and I accomplished it. My favorite new store that I had never been in was UNIQLO; this japanese clothing brand that projects quality, fun, and the most important: low prices!

There's just one UNIQLO in the US, and is only located at Soho in NYC. If you have the opportunity to go there, please do so, because you wont regret it. The pieces they carry are made with excelent quality, the colors are amazing, and it's something everyone can afford, not to mention the great taste in fashion.

Here is the web page link so you can visualize the concept and tell me what you think:

Working boots was the first must for this winter, now, if you wanna stay cool and look awesome while you fight the cold, you'll need to wear an appropriate hat for that, here are some ideas I want you to take in consideration: ... P.S. beanies are still rocking the house this winter

Affordable Fashion: Today's Hit

Living in a time affected by economical crisis is kind of hard when you want to look fashionably exceptional, well, not anymore! New clothing companies are rising in the world of fashion, stores that can give you what you need, what's cool and will steal a stare of more than a few people. We can name a lot of these stores, but I'm gonna mention the most important, and most talked about. H&M is leading the affordable fashion market all over the world being one the first to introduce this concept, then we have this cool british brand named Topshop, or Topman for dudes; I personally love this brand because you can wear pieces from it and feel like you're wearing a top designer piece, and it's very different and original, it is not that affordable, but it's worth it.

Affordable fashion does not mean you can wear Aeropostale, or Wal Mart clothes and look totally cool, it means that you find the right pieces at the right affordable stores, here are some of them:

• H&M
• Topshop
• Forever 21
• Uniqlo

"Whether it's a chunky knit from FCUK or a skinny tie from the superhyped British import Topman, the clothes you can afford right now are the clothes you actually want to wear" (Goldberg, 2009).
