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.

OUTFIT POST: MIXED PRINTS AND NEONS

Last week I read on Refinery29 an article about 29 trends every woman should try once in her life (I think I already told you this). Out of 29 I've tried merely 17 trends. One trend I thought I still hadn't try was mixed prints. Quite frankly I don't remember ever doing it (perhaps in my early adulthood years, who knows), so yesterday I thought why not go for it. Truth is I don't have many printed separates in my closet because I seldom ever buy prints but I did find something that I thought could work,  to spice it up I added a little bit of neon which we all know is quite the craze right now. 

Here are a few tips on wearing mixed prints:

1. Stripes and Florals. Mix florals with stripes.

2. Bi-Color Patterns. Choose patterns that have only two colors and make sure that both patterns relate with each other in at least one of their colors. 

3. Large Scale with Small Scale. Pair small muted patterns with large scale patterns.

4. Mix Neutral Patterns with Neutral Patterns. 

5. Color Matching Mixed Prints. If you're daring you can match any kind of print as long as they share most of their colors. 

When it comes to mixing prints the most important thing is not to take things to seriously, just go for it! Worst case scenario you'll en up looking like a fashion disaster lol! But that too shall pass. Meanwhile I hope you like my look and maybe it will even inspire you to try something at home. Good luck!

Stay tuned for my next post on OUTFIT DETAILS.
