Una mansion muy linda en la cima del Jardin.  A beautiful mansion at the top of the Botanical Garden.

We found great views, una vista maravillosa.


We found these off the exit trail.

Ham legs are very famous in Spain.  I have never ever seen this stuff.
During the evening, Nathalie and I went for very relaxing Baños Arabes.

Målaga May 14th

We had a great day today.  We went to Alcazaba, it's a fort that protected a castle and immediately afterwards we went on a bike ride along the coast.  It was a beautiful day.








Calle Juan Luis Peralta

At the very end of the bike ride we encountered swings.
El Super Poly
1 Euro later I got a magnet...lol!! But it was worth it... It's all about the experience.
In the evening, Nath and I walked around the town of Benalmådena.

We had dinner at Plaza Mayor.
Chupitos!! means shots!!  It was a great way to end the day....

My advice for fashionistas and the Fashion World during this economic crisis is... Keep It Simple!!

La Catedral De Målaga en España

I have arrived safe and sound this morning at 9am.  I had coffee on the plane and was really psyched to see Nath and to be in Spain and with really warm weather and all that good stuff.  
So Nath went to work and I was in the center of town taking some pictures of the Cathedral.
Then, I decided I wanted to just sent down and read a magazine....,
and then I crashed and fell asleep reading the mag.  This is how Nathalie found me on one of her breaks.  She thought it was extremely funny and took a picture of it.

Now I'm off for dinner and drinks....

Pantalones Cagados- SHIT PANTS!!

I'm traveling to Malaga, Spain to visit my great friend Nathalie on Monday, May 11th.  She's been living in Malaga for 8 months now and I can't wait to see her.  I'm extremely excited.  

She recently sent me these pictures stating that these pants are everywhere in Malaga.  She named them Pantalones Cagados, which translated into English literally mean SHIT PANTS!!  I call them harem pants or MC Hammer pants.


What you guys think?  I can't wait to see her.... Pantalones Cagados on or not!!
I'll post some pictures when I get to the other side of the Ocean.....

TFP-I Want Candy

About a month ago, I came up with the I Want Candy concept from a necklace that I saw on an a sneaker ad.  I can't exactly remember which ad it was.  But basically, I spoke to Chris the Photographer and he had a couple of ideas and one of them was a really bright indoor set.  I hand made most of the jewelry with Twizzlers, Gummi Bears, Marshmallows, Life Savers and Candy Dots.  I ate candy all day and had a blast.

I am the Stylist on the set, which means that I do not design or make clothing and I don't take the pictures.  I am not selling any of this either, all I do is put the concept together and bring it to life with the clothing and with the collaboration of the Photographer.
The Model, Veronica and The Make Up Artist were great and it shows because the final product is Fantastic!!

ZannClip

ZannClip, a hair clip that I love. 
See, even though I have short hair, I always have these bangs that get in the way when I'm attempting to actually get something done, for example, writing on my blog, washing dishes, working out or simply even getting dressed.  Most of the time though I use to let it be, because using a hairband would leave a mark or bend.  



Above I have some pictures for you to see the way that I am using the hair clip the way it works for me.  The trick on this hair clip is the spirals, half the clip is in spirals and the other half is the line closure.  The closure part is straight and long and sits on your scalp and therefore it does not interrupt your hair.  The spiral part also sits nicely on your hair without messing up any of it.  It's seriously and truly great!!

Below you will find a ZannClip instructional video...

Here's what made me really happy. ZannClip made me so so happy when they sent me smarty candies and nerds in the package. I love these kind of details....
