And just like that the holidays are here. It was last Saturday (the day after Halloween) that I saw five Christmas-related commercials while watching television. As always, I think we question the fact that a new year is upon us and whether we will actually follow our resolutions this time. But before this, we have plenty of holiday parties we need to gear up for, and with this in mind, I have teamed up with Abercrombie & Fitch to bring you a glimpse into their holiday collection (now in stores), which includes chic outerwear, sweaters, scarves, and more! Of course, when it comes to my personal style (and the fact that it is still very warm in Southern California), I tend to really mix it up when it comes to certain pieces, so it's no surprise that I threw on this amazing faux fur jacket with a pair of casual sneakers. This is a look that reminds me of nights out with friends during the holidays when we were all home from college on break. Where would you use this combo to? Get to your nearest A&F store for this and more outfits ASAP and take your pick! xx

Y así de rapido ya llegaron las fiestas navideñas. Era el sábado pasado (el dia después de Halloween) que mire cinco comerciales de Navidad en la television. Y como siempre, nos ponemos a pensar en que que rapido termino el año y si tal vez esta vez vamos a cumplir con nuestras resoluciones. Pero antes de esto, tenemos eventos de la temporada a las cuales debemos de asistir, y con esto en mente, me e juntado con Abercrombie & Fitch para traerles unos looks de su coleccion de invierno (que ya esta en tiendas), que incluye chaquetas, suéteres, bufandas, y mucho mas! Claro, cuando se trata de mi estilo personal (y tambien que aqui en San Diego todavia hace mucho calor durante el dia), me gusta intercambiar tendencias, así que no es sorpresa que me puse esta chaqueta de piel sintetica con unos tenis casuales. Este look me recuerda a las vacaciones de Navidad cuando todos mis amigos y yo nos juntábamos cuando regresábamos del colegio. A donde usarias esta combinación? Encuentra estas piezas en el sitio de Abercrombie & Fitch o en tu tienda A&F mas cercana!

BORING

SWEATER | Topshop
SKIRT | Topshop
BRACELET | Forever 21

The meaning behind this sweater is actually very contradicting; you know as they say, you should always enjoy life to the fullest. I saw it as something else- something very playful and an item of clothing that went with my personality. I am very out of the ordinary (sometimes), and standing out is a thing I am very proud of. It doesn't take a lot to make you pop out from the cookie-cutter crowd, especially when you're in the fashion industry. Change up your shoes, or even accessories once in a while- this will change your life.

PS. If you live in San Diego and would love to collab (bloggers, designers, photographers), please contact me! I love meeting and working with local creative souls like myself!

El mensaje detras de este suéter es algo muy contradictorio; como todos saben, tenemos que aprovechar y vivir la vida todos los dias como si fuera el ultimo. Pero yo lo mire como algo mas- una pieza de ropa que va con mi personalidad y ademas se me hizo agradable y juguetona. Yo soy bien extraña (no es obvio?) y me encanta resaltar entre la gente- es algo que me da mucho orgullo porque no le presto tanta atención a como me visto, es algo que me viene naturalmente. No toma mucho para encontrar tu propio estilo- cambia tus accesorios o usa diferentes pares de zapatos de vez en cuando. Te sorprenderás que cositas así cambiaran tu vida! 
Besitos!
