MADEMOISELLE RED GOES TO FILM SCHOOL

No, not really, I wish. I also wish I could go to photography school, graphic design school, web programming school, and language school (French, Portuguese, Hebrew, Swedish...) lol! What can I say, I'm the kind of person who likes to learn things. Unfortunately I don't think I have the time or money to learn everything, one's got to work right? Anyways... I'd be pretty cool to be a film maker.

No, no en realidad, desearía. También desearía ir a la escuela de fotografía, diseño gráfico, desarrollo de página web, idiomas (francés, portugués, hebreo, sueco...) jajaja! Que les puedo decir, soy el tipo de persona que disfruta aprendiendo nuevas cosas. Desafortunadamente no creo tener ni el tiempo, ni el dinero para aprender de todo, una tiene que trabajar no? En fin... Sería increíble ser cineasta.

MADEMOISELLE RETRO

(English)

I shared my first Mademoiselle Red post on July 10 2012.  So many incredible things have happened since then. So many changes. That first post was my all time favorite until this one. Thank you Shanila for such beautiful pictures! We had to battle with the sun but we did it! I give you Mademoiselle Retro. My mother bought this dress for me at BCBG in November last year. It's one of those dresses I wish I could wear more often. It's beautiful, it's classy, it's incredibly comfortable, and the coloring is just the perfect one for me. What can I say about Mademoiselle Retro, she's strong, she's cultured, and she's undeniably chic. She exudes elegance and confidence. She's ready to take over the world.

Mi primer post de Mademoiselle Red lo subí al blog el 10 de julio del 2012. Cuántas cosas maravillosas han pasado desde entonces. Tantos cambios. Ese fue mi post favorito por mucho tiempo hasta este. Gracias Shanila por estas imágenes tan lindas! Tuvimos que batallar con el sol pero lo logramos! Les traigo Mademoiselle Retro. Mi madre me compró este vestido en BCBG en noviembre del año pasado. Es uno de esos vestidos que quisiera poder usar más seguido. Es hermoso, es elegante, es increíblemente cómodo y el colorido es perfecto para mi. Qué puedo decirles de Mademoiselle Retro, ella es fuerte, es culta y es indudablemente chic. Rebosa elegancia y seguridad en sí misma. Ella está lista para tomar el mundo y hacerlo suyo.

LITTLE MISS RED ROMANTIC PUNK

Ok! I'm back in business and noooo I wasn't abducted by aliens, I just took some time off from everything for a few days (ok, maybe more than a few). Sometimes it's strictly necessary. I went to Miami for a week and ended up staying for 20 beautiful days. I wanted to spend my birthday in Miami with family and friends (December 21st the day the world was supposed to end). The night before my birthday we went to Spris of Coral Gables where I blew my birthday candles with the family. Then on Friday we had dinner at Wynwood Kitchen & Bar and after dinner we went to Cafeina Wynwood Lounge just around the corner for a little after party. I have to say I had a lot of fun. Every time I go to Miami I have the most wonderful time and every time I come back I feel disoriented. But anyhow... enough thinking about Miami and let's concentrate on a little work (just a little, it's still December).

I know that Tuesday is our Little Miss Red Fashion Adventures day but since yesterday was Christmas and I was being a complete bum I decided to leave it for today. Here's my Little Miss Red Romantic Punk look. We all know that spikes and studs have been one of this year's most popular trends. Everywhere you go you see spikes on everything, so of course I had to create a post that included them (expect more because I bought a couple of shoes with spikes that I plan to wear on future posts). Something I love to do to create interesting looks is mixing styles. Feminine with masculine, classic with artsy, and this time is romantic with a little punk. Adding a little punk to this outfits helps tone down the girlieness of the look making it more interesting and fun. 

(Spanish version)

Ok! Estoy de vuelta y nooo no fui secuestrada por extraterrestres, solo tomé unas vacaciones por unos cuantos días (ok, quizás más de unos cuantos). Algunas veces es estrictamente necesario. Fui a Miami por una semana y terminé quedandome 20 días. Quería pasar mi cumpleaños en Miami con familia y amigos (21 de Diciembre el día que supuestamente acabaría el mundo). La noche anterior a mi cumpleaños fuimos a Spris de Coral Gables en donde soplé mis velitas de cumpleaños. Luego el viernes cenamos en Wynwood Kitchen & Bar y después de cenar nos fuimos a Cafeina Wynwood Lounge a la vuelta de la esquina para un pequeño after party. Me divertí mucho. Siempre que voy a Miami la paso lindo y cada vez que vuelvo me siento desorientada. Pero bueno... basta de pensar en Miami y concentrémonos en un poco de trabajo (solo un poco, todavía es diciembre).

Yo sé que los martes es día de Little Miss Red Fashion Adventures pero como ayer fue navidad y estaba siendo una total vaga decidí dejarlo para hoy. Aquí les tengo Little Miss Red Romantic Punk. Todos sabemos que las púas y los ataches han sido una de las tendencias más populares del año. Por donde vas puedes verlas en todo, por lo que era obvio que tenía que crear un post que las incluyera (esperen más porque compré un par de zapatos con púas y planeo usarlos en futuros posts). Algo que amo hacer es crear looks interesantes mezclando estilos. Femenino con masculino, clásico con artístico y en esta ocasión romántico con un poco de punk. Añadirle un toque de punk a este look ayuda a bajarle un poco lo niña haciéndolo más interesante y divertido.

STUDDED SNEAKERS

My lifelong dream of owning a pair of studded sneakers finally came true lol! Alright I shouldn't be so dramatic about it. It's just that finding a pair of studded sneakers in Guatemala is nearly impossible. So yes, I'm happy! 

By the way, they are not dirty, they come like that and I love them. I'm gonna wear them with shorts, jeans, skirts, dresses, you name it! Can't wait to show you how they look.

El sueño de mi vida de poseer unos tenis con tachuelas finalmente se hizo realidad jajaja! Esta bien, no debería ser tan dramática al respecto. Es solo que encontrar un par de zapatos como estos en Guatemala es casi imposible. Entonces si, estoy feliz! 

Por cierto, no están sucios, vienen así y los amo. Voy a usarlos con shorts, jeans, faldas, vestidos, ustedes me dirán! No veo las horas de mostrarles como se ven puestos.

TODAY'S OUTFIT: MAXI SKIRT AND COWBOY BOOTS

By now you've already noticed how much I love my black sheer maxi skirt by Romeo & Juliet Couture. What's not to love about it? It's beautiful and it's perhaps one of the most versatile pieces I own. One of this days I'm gonna create a post about my maxi skirt's many looks, I'm sure a lot of you own that one maxi skirt that you can mix and match with almost everything in your closet. This time I decided to pair mine with Steve Madden cowboy boots, Kenzo braided leather belt, Massimo Dutti sleeveless basic top, Mayarí Rojas necklace, and a vintage handbag, oh and before I forget, my timeless C'Santos statement ring.

More often than not I hear women say how bad they look with olive green or military green however I do find it very flattering on me, perhaps its because my skin is warm and so is my hair. 

I hope you like it and good luck mixing an matching your own fabulous maxi skirt!
