Sunday, February 3, 2013



DENIMOCRACY ombré jeggings
BCBG studded booties
JOA CLOSET gray sweater
OASAP black hat
FUROR MODA boxy sunglasses
REBECCA MINKOFF bag
BEST PERSONALIZED JEWELRY "Nany" necklace


Last Friday I went to TOTEM, one of the amazing shows part of "Cirque du Soleil" with a couple of Miami Fashion bloggers and...of course boyfriends/photographers. Sadly, I don't have pics from the actual show since they don't let us take pics....BUT they took us backstage, which was an amazing experience. I don't even know what to write, you have to go and see the show... it is incredible. My inner gymnast get jealous/excited of all the tricks they can do... after the show, all I want to do is jump in a trampoline.

We learned so many things about the shows; like wherever they go, the backstage is set the exact same way in order to create some type of stability (specially if you consider that the cast comes from 30 different countries and they speak 11 different languages). Imagine traveling with the same group of people for years and year...I'd love to hear the love/friendship/drama stories they have. We also got a glimpse of where they train, how they keep the stage props, the makeup, the wardrobe.... so amazing!  There is so much work and effort behind these productions! If you want to check out more info about TOTEM, click here. I really recommend it!!

About my look: I went for a very casual/comfy look with this amazing ombré leggings and an oversized gray sweater ( it was a chilly night too). To make the outfit a little dressier, I added the studded booties... and for a fun vibe, the hat. Hope you enjoy the pics.. there are a lot of them!! XOXO

El viernes pasado fui al "Cirque du Soleil- TOTEM" junto a un grupo de blogueras de Miami ( y claro, novios/fotógrafos incluídos!). Lamentablemente no tengo fotos del show como tal porque no dejan tomar fotos durante...pero nos llevaron "detrás de bastidores"!!. No hay palabras para describir lo excelente del show- como gimnasta, siempre salgo con boquiabierta... y con ganas de dar vueltas en un trampolín. 

A donde sea que vayan, arreglan los bastidores de la misma manera.... así crean un tipo de estabilidad (sobre todo considerando que el elenco proviene de más de 30 países.. y hablan más de 11 idiomas). También nos mostraron donde guardan todos los accesorios del show, el maquillaje, el vestuario, etc. Y para rematar, pudimos ver hasta los bosquejos del vestuario. Este show lleva apenas 2-3 años en su gira mundial, y dicen que faltan al menos otros 12! Uno ni se imagina la cantidad de trabajo detrás de una producción tan grande como esta; y es realmente admirable. Si quieren ver más de este circo y si va a estar proximamente en algúna ciudad cercana, pasa por AQUI.

Rapidamente sobre mi look: quería estar cómoda y casual durante el show, así que escogí estos jeggings ombré y suéter ancho (estaba haciendo bastante fríito, sobre todo por la noche). Para verme un poco más arregladita, agregué los botines con tachas... y el sombrero para un toque divertido! Espero que disfruten las fotos... que hay bastanticas!

  1. How awesome is that? You're lucky you got to go backstage. I saw their Ka show a few years ago and it was AMAZING. I bet Totem is just as great. I like your outfit too :)

  2. Me encanta la espontaneidad de las fotos, Dany. Y el outfit está súper sencillo, pero con bastante edge. Amé el jumper, yo podría usar uno a diario. Besos desde tu Venezuela.
