Thanks a lot for those who had positive comments about my last post. Sometimes you hit a few rocks on the road, but we'll get through it and we'll be ok :)


I've got some awesome news…I'VE GRADUATED!

It took me a few days to realize that i don't have to go to class anymore, or that i don't have any projects to get ready for next week… it's crazy, but amazingly good crazy! I used this blog to vent a lot when school was giving me a rough time, so thanks to the ones that stayed tuned and kept coming back.


I think i've hit that spot where i don't know how to dress. At least once or twice a year, i start feeling confused about what i wanna wear. Maybe the fact that this season is coming to an end has to do with it, making me feel bored about the clothes i've been wearing for the past three months; or maybe being done with college means that i'm starting a "new chapter" in my life, so i'm translating that to my personal style… I don't know.

The thing is that i feel like i keep wearing the same thing over and over. I stare at my closet for a good amount of minutes before deciding what to wear every morning, and end up changing my outfit throughout the day. I know my style is quite simple (classic? minimalistic? basic?), so maybe i should start experimenting more and trying out stuff that i'm not familiar with…


For now i started reading this book i bought back when i was in Miami. It's written by Amanda Brooks (wrote for New York Times Magazine, Vogue and Men's Vogue; former creative director of Tuleh), and it basically helps you find your personal style showing you different kinds of styles, shopping tips and sources for style inspiration.

Muchas gracias a todos los que tuvieron cosas positivas para decir del último post. A veces nos topamos con obstáculos en el camino, pero no tengo dudas de que lo vamos a pasar y vamos a estar bien :)


Tengo una mega noticia…ME RECIBÍ!

Tardé un par de días en darme cuenta que ya no tenía que ir más a la facultad, o que no tenía que terminar ninguna entrega… es muy loco, pero es algo que estaba esperando hace tiempo ya. Usé mucho este blog para quejarme y descargarme cuando lo necesitaba, así que agradezco a aquellos que siguieron leyendo y siguieron volviendo a pesar de todo.


Por lo menos un par de veces al año, me pasa que llego a un punto que ya no sé qué ponerme. Quizá tiene que ver con que está terminando la temporada y lo que venía usando en estos últimos meses me empezó a aburrir; o por ahí se relaciona con que terminé la facultad para empezar una "nueva etapa" y estoy trasladando ese cambio a mi estilo… La verdad, no sé.

La cosa es que siento que me pongo lo mismo una y otra vez. Me paso un rato largo mirando mi placard y decidiendo qué me voy a poner cada mañana, para después terminar cambiándome a lo largo del día. Mi estilo es bastante simple (clásico? minimalista? básico?), por ahí una solución sería experimentar con cosas nuevas, nuevos estilos…


Por ahora empecé a leer este libro que compré hace unos meses. La autora es Amanda Brooks (escribió para New York Times Magazine, Vogue y Men's Vogue; fue la directora creativa de Tuleh), y es básicamente una herramienta para descubrir tu estilo personal. Muestra distintos estilos, tips para comprar ropa, imágenes e inspiración de distintos tipos.

Major congratulations and happy vibes sending your way! You must be so happy! I hope you celebrated properly... maybe burning those project sheets? ;)

You have no idea how many times I get stumped by what I'm going to wear. I really hate that feeling. I'm really starting to be more picky with the clothes that I buy. I'm starting to find pieces that can double as different outfits. I'm really glad that sporty chic has made a comeback thanks to A. Wang.

How's the book that you posted pictures of? I hope it's helping you out.

By the way, I kind of flinched when I saw the after shot of your blood work. ;)

I miss you ma mi!

I know exactly what you mean about getting confused about how you want to dress. It happens to me all the time--I get really comfortable in one style and then one day, I don't feel like dressing that way anymore and my closet suddenly seems full of things I don't want to wear.

I also picked up that book at a store a few weeks ago and at first glance thought it was a lame how-to guide for people who don't know how to dress themselves, but after flipping through it I actually came to really really like it. It's on my wishlist! I hope it helps you through your current crisis!

Congratulations girlie!!! Me and my friend talk about going through that same thing (staring in the closet before figuring out something to wear), and have agreed that that means it's time to buy SOMEthing.

I think you always look great, though!
