Finally after two days of pre-Swim parties and runways...the official Mercedes Benz Fashion Week just started. Thankfully, we had a gorgeous day without any rain... I hope it'll be the same way the rest of the weekend. My day started at the TRESemmé suite for the second hairstyle of the tutorial series that I'll be uploading next week. The "theme" of this hairstyle was creating a transitional hair-do that would last the craziness of running from one show to another, and even to the after parties late at night (and that's without considering the humidity and heat). So we started making my hair as straight as possible- since that's the look we always aim for, but doesn't work as planned (especially if your hair is as curly as mine). Then Tyler showed me how to do a cool updo by just twisting a fishtail braid- by the way, fishtail braids are easier to do than you think, he even made me finish it to prove that you don't need to be a hair stylist to do it. Remember to come back next week for the tutorials, can't wait to edit them and show them to you.

About my outfit: Tati from Furor Moda was wearing the black version of this skort yesterday- and I was like: "now I want to wear mine", which as you can see it's white. I ended up pairing it with a simple white tee, a faux-leather vest, cool sandals, and some gorgeous earrings.

Yesterday I had the opportunity to go backstage, interview the Agua Bendita designers, go to the Dolores Cortes show, and have dinner with the designers from Mikoh. It was an amazing day.

Have a great weekend!!

Y ahora si...después de dos días de fiestas y pasarelas, empieza oficialmente la Semana de la Moda "Swim". Gracias a Dios hizo un día hermoso en comparación al diluvio de ayer. Mi día empezó en la suite de TRESemmé para el segundo peinado de la serie de tutoriales que voy a estar haciendo la semana que viene. Esta vez quería que el peinado fuese algo que me durase todo el día- algo que aguantara el corre-corre de los shows, la humedad, el calor, etc. Empezaron secándome el cabello lo más liso posible con la colección de TRESemmé Keratin Smooth- para demostrar en el video que aunque es un peinado que todas queremos, es imposible que nos dure todo el día (especialmente si tienes el cabello tan rizado como yo). Este recogido parece complicado pero no lo es....es solo una trenza "cola de pescado o espiga"y se enrolla para crear como un moñito. El estilista me puso a hacer parte a mi para que vieras lo fácil que es...ya sabes, pendiente de los videos la semana que viene!!

Sobre mi outfit: Tati de Furor Moda usó esta falda muy reconocida en negro y me antojó de utilizar la mía en blanca. La combiné con una camiseta sencilla blanca, un chaleco de cuero sintético, unas sandalias divertidas, y unos aretes/zarcillos llamativos en vez de collar.

Tuve la oportunidad de estar detrás de bastidores y entrevistar a una de las diseñadoras de Agua Bendita, luego ir al show de Dolores Cortes, y finalmente a una cena con las diseñadoras de Mikoh Swimwear.

¡¡Un abrazo inmenso!!!
