Looks at MBFW

These are some of the looks that captured my attention at the 1st and 2nd day at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Mexico.

She's Montserrat. Co-designer at Lydia Lavín, and also her daughter. She's wearing necklaces and jacket both from Lydia Lavín. The jacket is one of my favorite pieces from their line.

Love that Comme des Garçons top <3 p="p">

 Kristina Bazan from KAYTURE was one of Pink Magnolia's special guests.

Castillo de Chapultepec

Today was my Birthday! I had so much fun here in Mexico City. Me and my friend Georgia visited the Chapultepec Castle. The castle is so beautiful and the arquitecture is just brilliant. Mexico City has so much history and beautiful places to look at. I'm just in love with this city, I don't wanna leave.

I wore:
Sweatshirt: Haunted! Clothing by Paulina Upalia
Pants: H&M
Cap: Urban Outfitters
Boots: Urban Outfitters
Coat: Vintage

H&M Maison Martin Margiela: launch party

H&M is launching their Maison Martin Margiela collaboration on Thursday. They threw a party for industry insiders here at their new store in Mexico City. I was lucky to get invited by my lovely friend Raúl, who is a style consultant at E! Latin America. 

The party went awesome. I met really nice people and shopped some pieces from the new MMM for H&M collection. 

Here I'm with my friend Jorge. He runs his blog called Factory Boy. It's pretty cool, check it out!

Keep it popping @ Mexico City

I am at Mexico City! I was invited by Mercedes Benz to MB Fashion Week Mexico. At first I thought, "Well I don't know any Mexican Designer, It would be a great opportunity to get to know them and support my Country". To be honest, I've been amazed by how developed the Fashion Industry is here. I had no idea that there were so many Mexican cool designers. I'm gonna be doing some posts later about their work.

This was the second day of MBFW. The first day I wore something pretty boring. So this day I decided to go a bit out of the box. I'm wearing:

Shirt: Topman
Jeans: Uniqlo
Cap: H&M
Bag: Cambridge Satchel
Sneakers: Vans by KENZO

Tavi: the teenage girl to look at

Remember Tavi Gevinson? She was known as the 14 year old fashionista sitting on front row in the most important fashion shows next to big names such as Dakota Fanning. Now she's 16 and smarter than ever. I admire her so so much. At that age, having that degree of intellect is just amazing. She just launched her book called Rookie Year Book One, which details the first year of her online magazine. She's just adorable and a great role model for teenagers. Watch her interview at Access Hollywood.

Michael Kors: The American Hero

I was looking at my photos and videos from last year, and this one came up. This is the introductory video of Michael Kors that was shown to us before his speech at TVFU on October 2011. I find it quite amusing and inspiring. These are some of the most interesting Michael's quotes from the video:

"When I was five, I ended up redesigning my mom's wedding dress"

"I started my business when I was 21 years old. No experience, no idea. I just knew the kind of clothes I wanted to make and the next thing I knew, there were people sewing in my apartment, racks over my bed"

"I like a woman who's got her own personality, her way of looking at things. I actually like when she's a little undone, you know"

"For me  the idea of someone who actually looks very chic but has a sense of humor, that's the turn on"

Watch it! 

A TVFU exclusive tour

Check out my firend's Bobbie Austin video recap from this year's Teen Vogue Fashion University. There's a glimpse of me at the minute 5:50 haha.

Check out her blog, it's awesome!

Styling for Fava

This weekend was extremely fun. My sister and me own a clothing store called FAVA here in Ensenada. I had the idea to do a photoshoot to promote the clothes and accessories we sell. I did the styling and took the pictures. Makeup was by my dear friend Bianca Cinelli, she did a wonderful job.

It was my first shoot and I was pretty happy with the results. Here are some of the pictures I took, after some editing. What do you think? Would you be interested in shopping at FAVA?
