British Magazines





Kate Moss, Topshop, Sienna Miller, Burberry, Agyness Deyn, Pixi & Peaches Geldof, Matthew Williamson, Temperley, Alexa Chung, Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood...
What's the common denominator in all these? British AND Fashion

I've always loved British Magazines... I go and browse the pages at the magazine store because here in Mexico they are so expensive (about $22 dlls,bollocks!). When I buy one I immediately experiment feelings of guilt, thinking that I could have spent that money on a book or something.

I loved this photos of Sienna Miller (including the cover) by Mario Testino in October's British Vogue.

Cual es el comun denominador entre ellos? Britanicos y Fashion!

Siempre me han encantado las revistas Britanicas (Vogue, Instyle, Grazia Magazine).... Pero siempre tengo que hojearlas en el stand de revistas porque son carisimas (Vogue UK de Octubre cuesta $280 pesos!!). Lo que me pasa cuando me compro una es que inmediatamente experimento sentimientos de culpla, pensando que podria haber gastado ese dinero en un libro o en otra cosa mejor.

Me encantaron estas fotos de Sienna Miller que hizo Mario Testino para la Vogue UK de Octubre.
En la portada, ella trae un vestido de Stella McCartney.

ACL Recap







Well, I really had intentions of bringing good pictures from ACL, but the downpours of saturday ruined those plans....

The highlights of the festival:

-Phoenix's performance: A-w-e-s-o-m-e. Definitely the best act of Friday. The Band showed very enthusiastic and Thomas Mars, the lead singer repeatedly said "Thank You!" and "Merci Beaucoup" to the crowd, mentioning that it was the biggest crowd they've ever played for. Everyone seemed pleasantly surprised by the amazing show they put on.

-John Legend opened his act LITERALLY in front of me, with Bob Marley's "Redemption Song".

-I saw Molly Sims with a group friends watching the Kings of Leon.

-Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam joined the Kings of Leon onstage for their last song "Slow night, so long", banging a pair of tambourines as hard as possibly.

-Dave Matthews Band rocked the park, keeping thousands of muddy concert-goers entertained.

What I liked most about Austin:

-South Congress Cafe
-Vintage Boutiques
-Cupcake trailers
-Pedicabs

Aunque tenia toda la intencion de volver del festival con buenas fotos, la lluvia arruino mis planes....No iba preparada con camara contra agua.

Los "highlights":

-El concierto de Phoenix. Estuvo increible. Thomas Mars, el cantante del grupo no dejo de agradecer y de interactuar con el publico. Estaba tan emocionado que hasta brinco entre las masas de gente.
-John Legend abrio su concierto literalmente a medio metro de donde yo estaba!
-Molly Sims con un grupo de amigos en los Kings of Leon
-Eddie Vedder de Pearl Jam acompano a los KOL en su cancion de cierre, con un par de panderos.
-Dave Matthews Band mantuvo prendido a su publico de mas de 20 mil expectadores que cantaban y brincaban llenos de lodo hasta las rodillas

Can't wait for Tim Burton's take on Alice in Wonderland





Alice has always been one of my favorite characters!
As a kid, I watched my betamax cartoon video so many times, that the tape probably wiped out.

That's me and some friends in Alice in Wonderland costumes circa 1983.

Back from The Sea





I spent the weekend Boating with friends within the waters of the Sea of Cortez.
It was amazing in so many ways! Sunny days, great company, whale watching, perfect sunsets and starry nights...
Sometimes it's hard coming back to reality!

Phenomenal Mascara!! Givenchy Phenomen'Eyes




This is really the best lengthening mascara I've ever tried...

At first, the brush might seem a little bit tricky to use (I sticked it inside my eyed the first time I tried it) but you get used to it faster than you think.

In the photos you can appreciate my eye without, and then with the Phenomen'Eyes Mascara.

It gives volume, definition, and lots of length.... Bravo Givenchy!
