La primavera está aquí. Puedo sentirla. Las jacarandas muestran sus primeros brotes, adornando las calles llenas de caos y desorden urbano. El ritmo de vida se acelera y el calor asfixia. No soy amante del calor, sin embargo me alegra poder utilizar mis prendas favoritas de verano, volver al colorido y los estampados para abandonarme seis meses después a mi tradicional closet color negro profundo. (Oh, esperen...)

Spring is here. The jacaranda is starting to bloom, adorning the streets full of chaos and urban disorder. The life pace accelerates  and the heat suffocates. I'm not loving the heat, however I'm happy to use my favorite clothes of summer, back to color and prints to abandon for six months  my traditional deep black color closet. (Oh, wait...)



Mi abanico de prendas veraniegas incluye esta falda con estampado floral clásico, con la forma perfecta, el largo perfecto, el print perfecto sobre el tejido perfecto. (Y el precio es más que perfecto!). No pude evitar amarla, ahora es la prenda obligada que no me puedo quitar y que gracias a su colorido estampado, es fácil combinarla con distintos colores de temporada.

My range of summer clothes includes this classic skirt with floral print, with perfect form, the perfect length, the perfect print for the perfect fabric. (And the price is more than perfect!). I couldn`t help but loving it, my must piece for this season. Because it`s colorful pattern is easy to combine with different seasonal colors. 


El toque divertido con accesorios no podía faltar, al igual que mis zapatos favoritos de verano y la cartera tipo sobre XXL que seguramente me acompañarán hasta que la lluvia nos visite.  

The fun twist with accessories couldn`t be missed, as my favorite summer shoes and XXL clutch that surely will be with me until the first raindrops.

Yesterda Jam: Tartan

1 Comment »




Although much of my work and life pretend to analyze current trends, when I need to choose between a modern design and a classic, always choose the classic. Probably because a nostalgia repeating pattern from my childhood, or some past life that I do not know that it was full of tartan. 

Aunque buena parte de mi trabajo y vida consiste en analizar las tendencias actuales, ante un diseño moderno y uno clásico; siempre elijo el clásico. Probablemente sea la nostalgia de repetir los patrones de mi niñez, o de alguna vida pasada que desconozco que estuvo llena de cuadros escoceses. 


Occasionally the zeitgeist  bless us with classic pattern trends. That was the case of tartan, found everywhere since last year. I dusted my small collection of kilts (five total, excluding dresses, shirts and other garments that repeat the pattern) and joined them into my daily outfits, apparently attacking the spirit of a British portrait of the late nineteenth century.

De vez en cuando el zeitgeist juega a bendecirnos con traer de vuelta los patrones clásicos. Ese fue el caso de los cuadros, que encontramos en todas partes desde el año pasado. Desempolvé mi pequeña colección de faldas escocesas (cinco en total, sin contar vestidos, camisas y otras prendas que repiten el patrón) y los incorporé a mis atuendos diarios, atentando parecer el espíritu de un retrato británico de finales del siglo XIX.




Continúen o no en tendencia ( las pasarelas de F/W 2014 dicen que sí!), me hace feliz vestir los cuadros escoceses, especialmente porque son extremadamente fáciles de combinar y porque aunque pasen los años, será un estilo clásico que vale la pena conservar en el closet.  

Continue or not trending ( F / W 2014 collections said yeah!), wearing plaid makes me happy, especially because they are extremely easy to combine and because although the years pass, they will be a classic style that worth keeping in the closet.

Médium "Neu" Collection

9 Comments »


Siempre me han gustado los espacios grandes y minimalistas, principalmente porque desde niña pensé que eran los mejores para llenar de ideas. Hoy en día lo sigo pensando, me encanta tener espacios vacíos, limpios y amplios para los pensamientos y la serenidad. 

I've always loved big, minimalist spaces, mainly because as a child I thought they were the best to fill with ideas. Today I keep thinking that, I love filling empty, clean and large spaces with thoughts and serenity.


Tal vez por eso sentí identificación inmediata cuando me mostraron la locación para las últimas fotos de la nueva colección de Médium. La mezcla de rojo y blanco hizo todo perfecto y no quedaba más que llenarlo de ideas. 

Maybe that's why I felt immediate identification when I saw the location for the latest pictures of the new collection of Médium. The mixture of red and white made ​​everything perfect and there was only one thing left to do; filling it with ideas.


El minimalismo del lugar contrasta con las pinceladas folclóricas que caracterizan las piezas de Médium, sin embargo la modernidad y estilo de la marca se encuentran cada vez más visibles y combinan a la perfección con el concepto, apoyado por las lindas fotografías de nuestro colaborador Mauricio Díaz y la sensacional modelo Kris Bailey, quien se unió a nuestro equipo por primera vez y es debido mencionar, lo hizo perfectamente bien. 

The minimalism of the place contrast the folk brushstrokes that characterize Médium pieces, however the modernity and style of the brand are increasingly visible and blend perfectly with the concept, supported by the beautiful photographs of our partner Mauricio Diaz and the sensational model Kris Bailey, who joined our team for the first time and is due to mention, she did perfectly fine.


Espero que las fotografías de la colección “Neu” de Médium les conmuevan tanto como a mí, y que aprueben los nuevos diseños de Médium (como han visto en posts anteriores, ya me encuentro usando piezas de la nueva colección!).

I hope the pictures from the  "Neu" collection by Médium move you as much as it moved me, and I hope you approve the new  Medium designs (as you have seen in previous posts, I am already wearing  pieces of the new collection!)

Waltheria Black Hole Lookbook

1 Comment »



Me encontraba con ansias de observar la última colección del diseñador guatemalteco Walter Ramírez bajo su marca personal Waltheria, especialmente porque nos ha demostrado modernidad y sofisticación en sus colecciones, sin faltar el elemento sorpresa o el atuendo que nos recuerde su posición imprescindible dentro del creciente movimiento de la moda nacional. 

I was excited to see the latest collection of Guatemalan designer Walter Ramirez under his personal brand, Waltheria, especially because he has shown us modernity and sophistication in his collections, without missing the element of surprise or the outfit reminds us his essential position within the growing movement of national fashion.


Sus colecciones se caracterizan por enfatizar los detalles en piezas altamente utilizables y su colección “Black Hole” no fue la excepción.  Las chaquetas de cuero fueron el énfasis de la colección, complementadas con transparencias y brillos, así como las tonalidades oscuras que Walter acostumbra incluir en sus colecciones. 

His collections are characterized by emphasizing the details in highly usable parts and his collection "Black Hole" was no exception. Leather jackets were the emphasis of the collection, supplemented with transparency and brightness, as well as dark shades  usually included in Walter`s collections.



Las aplicaciones de pedrería  y metales fueron el detalle que me hizo suspirar al ver la colección en pasarela y en el lookbook fotografiado por Mauricio Díaz. Las fotografías del lookbook me encantaron, la estética que comunica realismo y agresividad pasiva me recordaron que necesito la chaqueta de cuero con aplicaciones en mangas y espalda. 

Appliques of stones and metals were the details that made me yearn to see the collection on the catwalk and the lookbook photographed by Mauricio Diaz. I am deeply in love with the lookbook pictures, the aesthetic that communicates realism and passive aggressiveness reminded me that I need the leather jacket with  applications in sleeves and back.

La definición de Médium oscila entre tradición y modernidad, contraste y balance. El objetivo es comunicar la cultura local, mezclado con la perspectiva del equipo de diseño de Médium, presentando colecciones cada vez más sólidas y convincentes.

Médium definition oscillates between tradition and modernity, contrast and balance. The goal is communicate the local culture, mixed with the design team perspective, presenting every time more solid and convincing collections.


 Recientemente se lanzó el nuevo lookbook/campaña de Médium, con una oleada de detalles Resort y la pizca característica de folclor que forma parte importante de sus colecciones. El resultado es un festín colorido de figurines de barro y madera realizados por artesanos guatemaltecos y contrastados con cadenas, cuero y piedras de jade.

Médium launched recently the new lookbook/campaign, with a wave of Resort details and a pinch of folklore, an important element in all their collections. The result is a colored feast full of clay and wood figures made by Guatemalan artisans and contrasted with chains, leather and jade stones.


A Médium le deseo larga vida y un camino más sólido hacia la innovación sin olvidar sus momentos artesanales. Como parte del equipo Médium, me encuentro ansiosa por trabajar las siguientes colecciones y seguir disfrutando el proceso.

My wish to Médium is a long life and a solid journey to innovation, next to the artisanal link. As a part of the Médium team, I am very anxious to work in the next collections and keep enjoying the process.

This is a blog made by guatemalan girls who believe in global fashion and sense of style, without third word bounderies, mixing the latest trends. Nevertheless, our style is highly influenced by our roots, our culture and traditions. 

This outfit is the mix of our style concept committed with guatemalan folklore.  The blouse is called "guipil", made by hand by artisans, in the same way the hat band. We styled the outfit with leather pants, vintage belt and wedges from a local store. 

One of my favorite parts of this project is working with the amazing San Juan Comalapa´s people, lern the way they think and live is a whole experience. This pictures are located in the entry walls, full of painting and draws made by the local artist, experts in Naiv art. 

If you want more information about Guatemala, guatemalan textiles and San Juan Comalapa go to   GUATEXTIL .    

Obertura Expresionista at Memoirs

Am a fashion lover (i think you know that :)  ). When i see an editorial, a great pair of sandals or a perfect suit i realize how much am into fashion, and how important is this industry for me, i just can´t see me doing any other different thing. ( But i do love other things...). Maybe some of you don´t know that besides my fashion crush, am also a designer. This trip started almost 5 years ago, and now am honored to present to you my first complete collection called "Obertura Expresionista" , a introspective of myself, the things i love, inpired by the cult movie "The red shoes" and Abstract expresionism. 

This pictures are from a fashion show i was part of: "Memoirs", a big deal for me because i was part of the organization of this event. The location? an airport shed, a runway with a plane as a background. We were 12 designers ( sweet colleagues ) and almost 1000 people watching the show. It was amazing be part of it, a great experience.
Let me know what you think about my collection! i hope you like it! Critics, comments, suggestions are highly accepted. ( This is only a part of the whole collection, i hope to post the complete outfits soon)

Make up: Eddy Uker
Photography: Way out, Eddy Uker, ATGuate

(I got to say thank you to all the people who atttended the show, to my friends who helped me and participed in the project, my lovely models and Gabriel Cazali and Alex Hentze to provide great music as well.)
