U-Turn



So, I think my summer fling with light hair is over. I really didn't like it, I liked the idea of it, I wanted a change, I tried it out, and now in the end I know that dark hair suits me and I can accept it and move on. Would Snow White would have been Snow White without her hair dark as ebony? No, she would have been Snow Ball or something else stupid. This is my stance and I'm sticking to it. 


I made this headpiece out of an old necklace I dissected.


I don't know how J-Lo does it, oh yes I do, she dyes her eyebrows as well, but I'm giving caramel hair a farewell. You know what happens to caramel when you leave it on the stove too long? It burns. 

headpiece- DIY
dress- Yard sale. Told my mom to bust a U-turn and the nice raza sold it to me for $2
shoes- Jeffery Campbell

When you write an entire blog post about your hair #3rdworldproblems We will have real problems to blog about in 2015 when the dollar crashes. Better find a cash-gold stat. Sorry, Nacho has been watching all these crazy videos on youtube.

Happy Mexican Independence Day


By the time you read this I will be starting my new job. Today is my first day, Happy Mexican Independence to me. Except instead of Spain, I'm leaving a group of sad children behind. I got a job in fashion and couldn't be more excited. I'm feeling very Kanye West Late Registration.

The last weeks of August were pure celebratory, my daughter's bday, my bday, my nieces' bdays, and more. My 2 weeks of commuting to downtown L.A. for training will surely slow me down. Good cause I'm eating too much pizza and not exercising. OMG am I Selena?

Here is me hitting my baby's pi~nata at her first bday party. My niece brought the pi~nata just in case she reads this.

Vintage dress and jellies. All thrifted.

Sochi said a new word today, "caca." There, that's my mommy blog. blegghhh.

Coming soon

After a long hiatus, Maricela returned to my loft to model some clothes for me. I decided I need to have my niece start shooting the pics for me because Maricela makes me laugh too much and I end up using the straightening feature to fix it all on iPhoto. Maricela is one of those friends that I feel does way more for me than I do for her. I wish I knew better how to balance the scale but I ain't no libra #virgoproblems. Till then I will just keep making her tostadas and mojitos, our go-to lunch.

These clothes will be added to my shop in the next few days...
