Los Angeles Times

This weekend we did our Christmas Shopping (I know it was last minute) but we were both dreading going out to the stores because if L.A isn’t bad with traffic already, it gets worst during the holidays. We sometimes tend to walk out of the house and realize that we are matching, this always happens for some weird reason but we think it’s pretty cool that we don’t ever tell each other what we’re wearing and we mach somehow.
 She's Wearing
Wide Brim Hat: H&M (Similar Here)
Wayfarer Sunnies: Ray Bans (Similar Here)
White Button Up: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
Houndstooth Jeggings: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
Ready to Ride Black Booties: Lola Shoetique (Here)
Black and Brown Bag: Steve Madden (Similar Here)
He’s Wearing
Sun Glasses: Ray Bans
White Long Sleeve: Target
Blazer: H&M
Distressed Denim: H&M
Chelsea Boots: H&M
 
We both decided to keep it casual for our shopping trip because we were going to be out for a while, we wanted to be comfortable. We are both obsessed with hats right now for both men and woman because it is a great way to add a pop of color to a simple wardrobe. We are also very passionate about simple booties and Chelsea boots; they are comfortable and is a great way to finish off a simple look.
 

 
This Christmas was a very special one because we shared our 7th year anniversary!!!! It’s truly been a blessing and a great year and we are happy that we can share that with you all. We hope that you all enjoyed your Christmas!

Tis The Season

Since this is our first year blogging through the holidays we wanted to do something special x’s 3! Blogging has definitely opened more doors for us and we have been so lucky to find amazing people who share similar interests to ours. This is why we decided to do a fun collaboration with my Latina friends Claudia from The Penny Closet, Theresa from Oh Ivory, and Nashyely from DeuxEstilo. We wanted to share with you all different outfits inspirations for the holidays. We all have very different styles but can definitely rock a holiday look. Please visit their pages and show them some love.
Jesal’s style lately has been more grunge chic but he always knows how to go back to the basics. He decided to add a little rock and roll with his amazing loafers from Aldo (HERE). You can’t really see the details in his tie but ladies and gentleman that is a laced tie he is wearing, don’t forget that men can also rock a lace tie or accessory!
Every year I look forward to the holidays because it’s a perfect excuse to get all dolled up. I tend to wear a velvet dress for Christmas because it’s very festive and warm. This velvet dress is an amazing navy blue color with the perfect neck line. This dress was only $23 from Gstage and can be purchased HERE. The heels are from Zara and I scored them on sale for only $50. Don’t these heels just scream out Holidays?

We hope that you enjoyed this fun collaboration and we really want to take this time to wish you all a very happy holidays. We appreciate everyone who has followed us so far thought-out this journey and we hope to keep growing with you all.


Esperamos que haya disfrutado de este divertido colaboraciĆ³n y realmente queremos tomar esta oportunidad para desearles a todos unas muy felices fiestas. Agradecemos a todos los que nos ha seguido hasta ahora pensado este viaje y esperamos seguir creciendo con todos!!!!

Till Next Time,

Mint Condition

She's Wearing
Sheer Top: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
Mint Jeans: G Stage (Similar Here)
Turquoise Heels: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
Statement Nacklace: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
I don’t have a favorite color but if I had to choose it would fall under the mints, blues, and greens category. I wasn’t comfortable with wearing an all mint ensemble so I decided to tone it down with an off white sheer top.  
Again, weather in Cali is super unpredictable so sheer may not be the best option if you live somewhere where winter is in full effect. This outfit can be dressed up or down, I later wore this outfit to my little cousin’s birthday party so it was kid friendly.
I do have to say my favorite part of this outfit is the necklace. Statement necklaces are huge this year and this one from forever 21 was very inexpensive. Statement necklaces can add the perfect touch to a simple outfit 

We hope you enjoyed this post!

DIY Ombre Teardrop Necklace

I had the pleasure to work with my friend Lucero who runs a DIY channel on YouTube Lucykiins. She graduated from FIDM and is extremely talented in design and DIY. Not only is she beautiful, smart, and talented, but she is also very sweet! Please make sure to follow her on Facebook as well under Lucykiins and Instagram!
Okay guys, I promise we did not plan on matching, that was all a coincidence! I guess great minds think alike, that or we are just on trend! Again, living in LA and in the Valley, the weather can be unpredictable…that’s why I decided to wear shorts and these adorable heels from Lola Shoetique (Here).
Can you believe she made these necklaces? They are very unique and super trendy! I love how Lucy styled her necklace with jeans for a more casual look.
We hope you enjoyed the video and please make sure to check out Lucy’s other videos on YouTube and make sure to support and subscribe.

Los Angeles Love

 
There really is no way to describe how I feel about Los Angeles. I will say that I am one of those people who are proud of where they’re from. I am Latina and my family is from Mexico but my heart will always belong in the City of Angels. Some of my favorite songs are based on Los Angeles, like Red Hot Chili Peppers “Under the Bridge” or Tom Petty “Free Falling”.
She's Wearing
Studded Tiger Sweatshirt: Forever 21 (Here)
Black Skater Skirt: Cotton On (Here)
Black Thigh High Socks: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
Black Ankle Booties: Forever 21 (Similar Here)

Growing up here has been very memorable! From Down Town LA, to Santa Monica beach, and cruise back to the Valley. There’s nothing you can’t do. My favorite thing about living in LA is the people and all the cultures. There are all kinds of people and inspiration. My favorite thing to do is people watch and try to figure people out, find out what their story is.
The weather here is finally starting to cool down and its time to bring out the sweaters, high thigh socks, and booties!  This sweater has to be one of my favorites at the moment because there are multiple ways you can wear it, its definitely a must in a woman’s wardrobe this season!

Fashion Week Pt. 2- Project Ethos

I know were a little late on this post but we still wanted to share our experience that we had at a Los Angeles Fashion Week Event. We were so lucky when our friend Claudia from The Penny Closet invited us to join her for the Project Ethos Fashion Show. We also had the pleasure of meeting a local blogger Andriana from La Moda By Andriana. We shared a lot of common interests as well as live in the San Fernando Valley. It's amazing how you meet people and connect with them on a lot of levels.
We both decided to wear darker colors since we have transitioned over to fall. Jesal kept it simple and chic in burgundy corduroys and a button up and Kim decided to keep it classy and flirty in fringe and florals. (We swear we didn’t plan on matching!!!)
She's Wearing
Fringe Top: Gstage ( Similar Here)
Floral Skirt: Gstage (Here)
Accessories: Forever 21
Clutch: Down Town L.A ( Similar Here)
Nude Heels: Forever 21 (Similar Here)
We cant stress enough how amazing it is to create friendships with people like Claudia and other bloggers we have met. We cant wait for next years LAFW!

A Little Get Away

When I was a kid, it was a tradition to go back to Cd. Guzman, Mexico in October to celebrate the "Fiestas de Octubre". The celebration lasts for 19 days leading up to a finally of a huge, heavy wooden platform carrying the statues of the Patron Saint – St. Joseph holding el NiƱo Jesus – and the Virgin Mary. I bought my ticket last minute and packed everything the night before, here is what I wore on my 6 days in Mexico.
 
I fell in love with these printed maxi dresses from Charlotte Russe because the cut and details are amazing. You can find them on their website Here and Here!
 I decided to keep it simple with dresses as well as a leather jacket and flats or sandals. Flats came in handy because there is a lot of walking. My main accessory was the black hat that I purchased at forever 21. Because of the climate, my hair wasn’t working with me so I found it very convenient to throw on the hat. I kept my makeup also very light because it was still warm in Mexico. The green and purple maxi dresses where both purchased from Charlotte Russe and the two red dresses are from H&M.

I hope you all enjoyed!
