What I Wore: NYE Party

It's quite difficult to appreciate yet again my terrible pictures but I wore a black jumpsuit by BCBG MaxAzria to my NYE party on the Carnival Destiny cruise to Jamaica and Grand Cayman along with some basic black pumps by Elin Kling for GUESS Marciano and Forever 21 necklace.

Personal Style: The Bow-Tie

I am not a personal fashion style blogger but every once and a while I like sharing my poorly edited personal style looks jajajajajjajaja. In this case, my new bow tie from the Forever 21 men's section and sheep sweater from Old Navy (tooooo cute!). The bow-tie is probably my favorite men's accessory and thanks to Masculin Feminin looks we girls are now pulling it off - the bow-tie has now crossed the border, become unisex and will not only be seen on Mr. Alber Elbaz of Lanvin, suave basketball players in shiny suits or delectable Chuck Bass (oooooooooooo0h Chuck!)

are you ready to cross-over?

Inspiring: J Crew Holiday 2012



Yes, I am subscribed to J Crew. Seriously who would have thought I'd fall so deeply in love with J Crew? Perhaps it was Jenna Lyons.
The mix and match of glitter, plaid, bow ties, bold bright jewelry, and jeans just does it for me.
Add some unique pumps, over the shoulders blazer and black framed glasses - you've been Jenna'd.
Not only I am looking at J Crew and Jenna for some holiday inspiration but everyday work and job interview inspirations. It's classy, comfortable and fun.

Inspiring: Resort 2013

BCBG Max Azria | Resort 2013
 Azria's inspiration embodies the cultures India to Peru for the Tuscan jetsetter's of Hotel Il Pellicano through kimono-style dresses. A definite must have style for a true beach jetsetter.

Balmain | Resort 2013
Balmain's Olivier Rousteing was inspired by Miami. Not only by the South Beach colors (yellow, peach, and mint) but by the Latin culture that makes Miami, "el pequeño latinoamerica".

"I'm mixed race, too," 

"so it was beautiful to see the connection between Cuba and the U.S. there."

"Fun, happiness, and hope"

Just Cavalli | Resort 2013
Cavalli was inspired by India, hip-hop culture and the Garden of Eden - accented with his signature animal prints.

The following looks are just a few looks that are bound to inspire my holiday looks while out in Miami and the Caribbean. However, I am set to wear a black pantsuit/romper/overall look. I'm aiming towards a sleek chic look to ring in the the new year.

Holiday Gift Guide: The Blogger


Shop 
> Karla Castillo (Ponte Vecchio Boutique, Nicaragua)
> Eugenia Kim (Net - A - Porter.com)
> Adriana Castro (Flechada.com)

tomorrow, my 22 day countdown starts - I can't wait to be in Miami and cruise around Grand Cayman and Jamaica for the holidays. all i need are some essential statement pieces for Miami and when you think Miami - you think Emilio Pucci. Although Peter Dundas, 2013 resort collection was a lot more urban you can't doubt his sexy caftans, v-necks, slick pencil skirts and printed romper in classic blue and white embroidered pieces for the true Miami girl. NOW, I obviously wouldn't wear my winter Eugenia Kim turban in Miami (that's my own little gift for my trip back home to NY) but I would definitely mix in these seawater statement crystal embellished pieces by Karla Castillo and Etro - and for the perfect red hot Miami color, this Adriana Castro sling handbag.

Get To Know: Jorge Mejia Peralta


Conoci el señor Mejia hace unos años por mi mejor amiga (y su modelo / musa) Iva Grijalva. Poco a poco nos hemos ido conociendo por la farandula y en especial por la moda. El me pide consejos, me envia las fotos de sus sesiones, me pide que le modele (nose porque?) y yo le pido que vaya a cubrir mis eventos. Pero siempre nos buscamos para hablar francamente y con pura honestidad. ademas de ser una persona muy dulce, el es una persona muy honesta y un excelente critico - un critico quien ha sido criticado por fotografiar las modelos sin ropa de interior (a como deberia ser porque es horrible ver las modelos con 'nipple stickers' o un brassier blanco anticuado) - pero un critico con un punto de vista actualizado y al grano. por eso tengo el gran placer de presentarles, mi querido amigo y uno de los fotografos más respetadas en Nicaragua, Jorge Mejía Peralta.

Fotografo en el sector de Moda quien te inspira?
Nikola Borosov http://borissov.deviantart.com/ veo su trabajo en deviantart.com y me encanta. 
 
La ultima cancion que bajastes para el Ipod?
No tengo ipod, lo último que bajé fue algo de Jason Mraz y de Hugh Masekela, trompetista sudafricano
Si no fueras fotografo, serias?
Periodista, eso estudié, siempre quise ser redactor o editor de un periódico.
Cual fuerza de naturaleza te consideras: Agua, Fuego, Tierra o Aire?
Tierra. Me muevo poco, sirvo de apoyo a la gente, me encuentro donde sea. Hago germinar las cosas y sirvo para enterrar otras cosas
Tu favorito libro?
Tengo varios, me encanta leer. La Tregua, de Mario Benedetti, Cien Años de Soledad de Gabriel García Márquez, Los Tres Mosqueteros de Alejandro Dumas
Persona quien deseas fotografiar?
Arturo Pérez Reverte, escritor y periodista español o a Joaquín Sabina cantautor español

Que falta en Nicaragua para el desarollo de tu carrera? 
Una lista aceptada de precios, de tarifas. El trabajo del fotógrafo de moda se basa en el trueque, la amistad, los favores. Yo nunca he recibido un córdoba por unas fotos de una pasarela. Las portadas de revistas generalmente no se cobran. Las modelos no son capaces de pagar para hacerse un buen portafolio. Cuando se pague por fotografía de moda de calidad, ahí habrá un verdadero desarrollo.
