She said "I don't mind, if you don't mind"






Polka-dot jumper & mauve and white bag from Forever21; white heart embroidery shoes from lovely-shoes.net; hairband from Todomoda.



It's funny how you just break down
Waitin' on some sign

With magic soakin' my spine

F.A.Q.

Who takes your pictures?
I used to take my pictures with self-timer in front of my house's door, but I got really tired of it and my boyfriend started to take my pictures :)

Is that your real hair color?
Yes, I have never dyed my hair and I'll like to keep it like this until I have too much grey hairs.

How can you afford your clothes?
I receive a few clothes from sponsors which has helped my wardrobe to grow, but I still buy clothes on my own. My favorite shops are: Zara, Forever21, H&M and ASOS, they're very affordable :)

Do you eat healthy? What kind of diet do you follow?
I believe I eat pretty healthy, I love veggies, lean proteins, fruits, nuts and I avoid grains at all costs.
I don't follow any diet because I consider this a lifestyle, I want to be active, full of energy and health all my life, without limiting myself.

What camera do you use?
My camera is a Canon Rebel T3 with a EF 50mm 1.8 II principally and a EF-S 18-55mm 3.5-5.6 lens.

You look like Selena Gomez.
Yes...

What beauty products do you use? Your skin is flawless!
Thank you! but no, my skin is pretty far from being flawless. I suffered severe acne in my teenage and now I have many acne scars. I cover them with make-up and when we're taking photos we use the best light we can.
I always remove my make-up at night and wear sunscreen everyday, that's basically my "beauty" routine, if you can call it like that!

Do you recommend wholesale webshops?
Absolutely yes! A big part of my wardrobe is from wholesale webshops, just be careful with what you order, read reviews before ordering and see the pictures clearly. Remember, you get what you pay.

Breathe out so I can breathe you in, hold you in





Straw beach hat and khaki shorts from Forever21; striped tank top from Charlotte Russe; black belt from a LOB's dress; ballerina & bow sandals from Emily Temple cute.


I haven't done anything with my hair lately (I never have enough time when I go to classes), so it's nice to use a hair dryer and see how long it is now. I still remember when I cut it over my shoulder and how easy to style and comfortable it was, but at the same time I love long and thick hair.

I want to go to the beach... hope I can do it soon, and I'm going to start doing spinning too, because I feel my legs aren't what they used to be haha.

Remember to join to my giveaway, many people aren't joining because they think it's only for a certain country, but it's open WORLDWIDE!

GIVEAWAY: Dooney & Bourke bag


As I promised, I'm doing a giveaway to celebrate my first 100 followers!

Remember my Lanca modified bag with the Moschino belt? Well, many of you asked me where I got it. The seller has a wonderful shop on facebook but for the moment she doesn't take international orders, and because of this she was very, very kind to me and gave me the bag for this giveaway. I'm truthfully thankful to her :) 



The giveaway is an original Dooney & Bourke leather bag, gently used, almost new. Very pretty, versatile and great for everyday. The color is tan, it has a pocket inside, removable strap and you can wear it across your body or on one shoulder. I wish I could keep it because it's a beauty!







What do you have to do in order to participate?

1. Follow me on Google FriendConnect (the bar at your right)
2. Follow LPP! bolsas on Facebook.
3. Leave a comment in this entry with your name, e-mail and country, and let me know that you followed both sites!

You can participate from any country and gender. Only 1 comment per person.

The winner will be randomly chosen on random.org. If, for example, your comment is number 10, and the program generates the number 10, you'll be the winner.

The giveaway winner will be chosen on June 30 11:00pm Pacific Time. That's only 15 days to enter!

Do not miss this wonderful chance ♥

Don't look at me that way, it was an honest mistake





Basic tank top from Forever21; green pleated skirt from eBay; modified Lanca bag with Moschino vintage belt; shoes from lovely-shoes.net; belt from LOB.


Finally, I'm on vacations! sleeping all day, eating 5 times a day, going out with friends and 4 hours of english class daily.
I'm loving this skirt so much, I have so many coordinates in mind that it's hard to decide which I should wear haha. So silly.

I'm looking for a good item for my giveaway to my followers :) keep in touch because it will be soon.

Interview at De Tripaz Corazón


I had a really nice interview at De Tripaz Corazón, they asked me about me, my dreams and fashion!

Lusting over this


Pleated green long skirt which will look amazing with my new heels and my Lanca modified bag; a coral nail polish; a black fedora that would be perfect for summer and autumn (and I don't own any); scalloped shorts that are very vintage looking but very sleek also; another orange lipstick because I'm a sucker for make-up.


Btw, I changed the blog's design, what do you think?
I'm almost reaching 100 followers, I would like to do a give-away but still don't know what it should be, a bag? a piece of jewerly?

Do I stay or run and leave it all behind?





Navy stripes shirt from asia-fashion-wholesale.net; orange belt from ebay; paperbag skirt from Mango; leave print pumps from wholesale-dress.net; white clutch from ebay.


I love this skirt very much, but it needs to be ironed everytime I use it and it's a pain in the ass.
I'm almost done with my finals but english classes start right away, hopefully I'll have time to enjoy the vacations and travel, I feel the urge to leave the city permanently but that isn't going to happen anytime soon. So, I wanna visit Los Angeles or San Francisco to breath some new air.

Dreams are meant to be accomplished



Yesterday I had my second fashion show and the chance to walk on a runway with two gorgeous dresses.

I remember when I was little and I told my mom how much I would love to be a model, and I still remember the response she gave me: "You can't be a model, you have tiny eyes, you aren't that tall and you can't walk very well".
All of that was true, I have tiny round eyes, I'm not that tall to be a professional model and I had problems in my feet and couldn't walk straight. So I gave up too easily, forgot about all that and kept going with my own things. Later I discovered I can use make-up on my tiny eyes to make them bigger, I can use heels to be taller and I used special shoes to correct my feet.

And I remembered all this yesterday, while walking on my own feet down the runway, with fake eyelashes and 5" heels, and while several camera's flashes were pointing at me I couldn't stop thinking: "I told you mom, I can be a model".

Don't let anyone tell you what you cannot do!

Amazing finds



My new amazing bag!
It's a black vintage Lanca bag modified with the Moschino gold belt, and I'm sure that everything that's gold was added too, so it was a full DIY project :) Original author? I don't know. I bought it from a girl with great taste who sells bags on facebook (and I think she finds them on a flea market or something like that). 


What are your amazing finds?
