If I were in love with a Warrior / Si estuviera enamorada de un Guerrero

It would be, without a doubt, with Samantha Cole's Warrior Collection! Why? Well.. Why wouldn't it be? After looking at her S/S 2010 lookbook, I was just speechless. The silhouette. The materials. The construction. The futuristic-meets-dominatrix mood. The styling. The whole look! J'ADORE, I LOVE AND I WANT! Now I understand why she was awarded best Fashion Designer during the New York S/S 09 Fashion Week

If I were on a shopping spree / Si estuviera en una expedición de comprás

Today, I woke up feeling amazingly happy which made me want to go shopping!... but unfortunately the city where I live isn’t able to satisfy those unexpected shopping cravings. I’m not in the middle of the jungle and we light, cars and internet and yes don’t worry we also have iPhones and BlackBerries.. Thank God for that!

So I went on a fantasy shopping spree. Yes, fantasy, not only because it would be a more than $3,000 OUTFIT but because this kind of merchandise, or any for that matter, wouldn’t make it through the mail :S.. how sad right?!? Anyways, I’m feeling very tropico and rrrrrumba which made me think of ruffles and a rainbow color mix. I feel these garments match my mood! Bright combinations and big contrasts!!!! And if you are wondering where the tights and coats are, well let me tell you the tinny tropical country is always waaarm!

If I wear Ostwald Helgason / Si usara Ostwald Helgason

I would be looking hot, feminine and amazing !! The spring/summer 10 collection the label launched has a simple silhouette mixed-up with more than interesting prints and colors which make the garments desirable and become my new craving!

PS. Click on the images so you can see better the prints




If I were young, hip and parisian / Si fuera joven, a la moda y parisina

I would be Baptist Viry, a young Parisian designer who launched his second accessories collection et qui en plus has 26 year-old and already who works for Hermès, a lucky guy ain't he?...All I can say is that I'm feeling and loving the well-redefined military look !!!! Seems that if designers keep on redefining it, I'll keep on loving it!

If I wear Prêt-à-Cocktail.../Si usara Prêt-à-Cocktail


After trying to get things together for a while, here it is ,finally!.. Casual Goddess, my first mini collection inspired on the prints of the fabrics, the tropico weather and the chic Mediterranean style. Its a limited collection therefore, there are only 2 garments per size and per style and really few belts that are also designed by me... we'll see if Salvadoran women dare to feel free and fresh during the casual afternoon get-together.

If I were inspired / Si estuviera Inspirada

Today, thanks to a picture I took at the beginning of summer, I realized I’m being hunted by the same group of colors because I’ve been unconsciously picking the same tones for inspiration but in different presentation and I just realized it!... I'm loving that minty color by the way!....This is the picture I like the most, some of the buttons that caught up my attention out of 2 bottles PACKED of old, new, plastic, metal, wooden buttons.. you do the math of the time I spent picking them out...

If I wear a classic / Si usara un clásico

For those of you who can’t picture shopping in El Salvador I’ll try to explain it to you realistically in few word: Its the W-O-R-S-T! and not because “yuck! other people are going to be wearing the same things as I am, and since it’s a small city, we’re going run into each other out there in the street so I’m going to go shopping abroad” but because the only immediate and descent option to satisfy a shopping craving on this side of the pond is Zara, which by the way is not completely the same as Europe. The rest?? is HORRIBLE!!!! HIDEOUS! I mean really! Me, a person who doesn’t care about brands but colors, shapes, styles and just options to mix and match the only thing I found in the middle of this… boring jungle was a little black dress!!!!!!!!!!!! PICTURE MY SITUATION PLEASE!!!... Houston, we have a problem…but I’m on it, if you know what I mean, so I’m not freaking out… but this is what I found: a chiffon black dress, a classic I said to myself, but it was just too long and just too boring to wear it by itself so what better way to improve the look than to add up a bold belt… so here is the result…

If I wear $5 shoes / Si usara zapatos de $5

While I was living in Spain my sister introduced me to these amazing basic/casual shoes that come in the complete rainbow color range, definitely the new Converse but in 9 euros. The brand is Victoria, they have made the crossover from the granny crowd to the young and hip crowd, they are the Keds of Spain.

Now that I’m on the other side of the pond, few or better said almost no one wears this kind of shoe!!!! But what is my surprise today?!?!?! Walking down a mall I rarely go to, I see this bran that was really popular while I was younger: CHIC by Velinda! is the Salvadorian and 5 DOLAR version of the Victoria AND Keds!!!!!!!!! I saw them I got them because I didn’t have the all black version.

For me they’re like the little black dress in a casual/Sunday outfit way! So here are the shoes and the looks they would go perfect with.

If I wear Jimmy Choo / Si usara Jimmy Choo

I would not only be drooling for these amazing treasures but I would also make sure to mark November 14th on my forehead so my feet would feel pampered this winter!!! One of the shoe Gods, Jimmy Choo, is set to work with H&M this season… how lucky are all those people who have H&M in their countries?...or better yet I would say people who work at H&M are even luckier to rule those people’s world! .. once again chapeau to H&M strategy.. It just gets better and better!

If I were to keep my eyes on something / Si tuviera que mantener mis ojos en algo

I would definitely make sure to keep them on Michael Angel, amazing aussie designer who recently launched his on-line shop and is set to open the spring/summer ‘10 womenswear collections at New York Fashion Week… what an honor! I’m pretty sure he’s going to create some juicy things to talk about…

These are some of his fall 09 pieces… strong, fresh and funky… they all reminded me of the amazing aurora boreali

If I were Nina Ricci… / Si yo fuera Nina Ricci…


I would be bragging about these amazing boots designed for fall/winter 09/10… how cool are they?? Its like drag queen gone beyond chic!
I would wear them with a tailored jacket, white shirt and a pair of light denim jeans… AND I would make sure to practice my walk before even consider going out in public… we don’t want some tragic accidents that would overshadow the outfit, right?

If I wear see-through clothes… / Si usara ropa transparente…


Not only because I was away it means that my mind wasn’t working, thankfully it just kept on going and going… and I got a bit fixated with the mosaic post…. I was brainstorming about mosaic which lead me to light and I finally got it today, playing with my old mate Photoshop I got a print and I would go craaaazy if I could get it printed on some… I’m thinking feather light, a breeze under a wavy see-through fabric…. silk chiffon?… mmmm nice!!!!! And for the shoes I got inspired on rubber bands… the color and the texture would make an interesting contrast… I’m nude colors lately

If I were back… / Si estuviera de regreso…



My blog has been on pause for almost 3 months now, but I’m glad to be back doing what I love the most.
I had been looking for a blazer with shoulder pads but unfortunately the ones I found where like… blah…UNTIL a couple of days ago! While coming back home, I spent some time chez my aunt, I was staying in the guest room and what is my surprise?!?!?! I found some of her clothes from the 90’s!... Its like having a vintage shop in the comfort of your own house!!!!!!!!!!! how lucky was I?!?!?! I would say A LOT! I loooooved this blazer from the moment I unzipped that bag… Its just the perfect size, the perfect color and the perfect shape and perfectly sitting there waiting for me!

If I were a Boy / Si fuera un Niño

Today I wanted to have some fun after a long day of work so I assumed a roll Beyoncé assumed couple of months ago, but instead of making it corny I did it…cool? Anyways, I looked at some guys clothes and made up the outfits I would wear if I were a boy. This is one of the outfits I did. I’ve always liked the guys that aren’t afraid of color or just to think a little outside the box… just risk it and lose the button-down shirt for one day…

P.S: oh! and those shades?.. I would wear them as a girl! I mean how cool are they?! I WANT THEM NOW!

If I wear Roses / Si usara Rosas

I think you've notice this summer is all about flowers and roses accessories… I’ve seen flowers here and there, roses this and that size both in so many colors. I fell in love with all of them and new exactly how would I used them since I had a one of those do-it-yourself-project vision. The good thing about this is that I could putt them on and take them off, change the color, change the size… is like if I had many shoes! I like the unexpected contrast a big flower can give to an outfit…

If I were Anna Wintour / Si yo fuera Anna Wintour

I would be the lady that inspired The Devil wears Prada, I would be the lady that dictates the fashion world. All that makes me wonder, what would happen to the fashion world once she dies?... that is if a robot ever does die!
