BRAIDED PLASTIC BAGS: eco-fashion!!!

ECO TRENDY BRAIDED ARTCRAFT

Here I share a nice surprise I've found while I was browsing at an artcraft souvenir store at Barichara - Colombia: a braided plastic shopper bag. I always bet for basics to make your look something big and stylish. These bags made from used plastic bags are a good choice to be eco, fashion and unique.

Aquí les comparto una gran sorpresa que me he encontrado en Barichara-Colombia, cuando estaba hechando un vistazo a las tiendas de souvenirs de este pueblito tan bonito: las shopper bags de plástico trenzado. Como siempre, apuesto por cosas básicas para hacer de tu look algo grande, y en esta ocasión ecológico, fashion y diferente.

Hope you like it for a relaxed look. Coming soon with my Spring Summer 2012 highlights from New York. Big applause for Diane Von Furstenberg and Preen.

ARABESQUES`S T-SHIRTS: eclectic trend

SHAPES COLORS NEW OLD MODERN

Here I am back after a small wedding brake with one of my favorite trends at present : ARABESQUES'S T-Shirts. This so various prints look so well in a simple white T. It has come this season but it will show next summer as well. So, not only arabesques for curtains, rugs or carpets... wear them on yourself!!!

Luego de un pequeño descanso tras una gran boda, he regresado con una de mis tendencias favoritas actuales: CAMISETAS CON ARABESCOS. Estos diversos estampados quedan muy bien en sencillas camisetas blancas. Llegaron este verano, pero seguro volverán el próximo. Por lo que no dejemos los arabescos sólo para cortinas, alfombras o tapetes..... usemóslos en nosotros mismos.

PINK FILOSOFY: my bit extra from ColombiaModa 2011

There is nothing like a brand making fashion from beautiful simplicity. And there is nothing like people who know how to make basics something big and stylish. All that can be found with PINKFILOSOFY. Here you have a bit example of it:

No hay nada como una marca de moda haciendo de la simplicidad algo espectacular. Y no hay nada como alguien que sabe llevar prendas básicas con estilo y grandeza. Todo eso puede encontrarse en PINKFILOSOFY. Aquí una pequeña muestra de esto:
