INSIDE THE HOLA! OCTOBER/NOVEMBER ISSUE!

My editorial for HOLA! magazine‘s October/November 2017 issue is officially here…and 4 pages eeek! Gracias HOLA! team for the incredible feature. I’m so proud to be Latina…to represent such an amazing and lively culture. We’re fire-y…we literally love our spices and we can spend all night on the dance floor. There’s still so much of my family history that I’m just being more in tune with. There are still so many places I need to visit. Speaking of culture, now is such an important time to embrace our diversity. To accept everyone as they are, to travel, to get to taste different parts of the world. That’s what I love about my job…I get to meet amazing people from all over, like here on set. Which reminds me, time to really brush up on my espaƱol. For this specific feature, we focused on 4 amazing fall trends. Most of the items featured here are pulled from my own closet. Upholestery. Metallics. Textures. Monochromatics. See more and shop!

MY MOST STREETSTYLE SNAPPED

I’m still all about the bubblegum and sorbet colors of summer, and bringing them into fall. This may be one of my absolute favorite NYFW looks. A crushed velvet dress, and the most perfect cropped jacket. How insane are these sleeves?! Karen Walker. She’s amazing, I know. I think when it comes to bursts of color in your wardrobe and in a single look, go for different textures, and fun proportions. This is one unexpected combination I threw on one hectic morning. It’s quickly became one of my most streetstyle-snapped looks. I mean, what’s not to love about orange and pink?!

THE JOYBIRD HOLLAND DESK | MY WORKSPACE


I spend a ton of time at my home workspace when I’m actually in town. I tend to travel every other week, so when I am back home, getting work done, I like my space to be minimal, eclectic, and extra cozy. My desktop was in need of it’s own separate space…and for me, with my camera equipment and mood boards, I needed a big desk. A big desk for me to sketch, to write, to really zone in on my work and my editing. I immediately went to Joybird because of their sleek, vintage-inspired design. Modern Mid-Century is an ongoing theme in my home. My Dumbo, Brooklyn home is super lofty, so I like to keep it’s raw, industrial feel. Wood with metal accents, and little pops of bold color. Meet my new Joybird “Holland” desk.

FOR THE TALL LADIES! Yes, I’m 5’10”!

I was in London when I first met with Long Tall Sally, an amazing brand, based in the UK, that caters to us super tall women, all over the world. I’m 5’10 and it’s seriously so hard finding pants long enough for me…it’s tough enough finding miniskirts that aren’t too short, or blazers that actually hit my wrists. That extra inch or two in length makes a huge difference for us amazon women. So when they asked me to shoot for the new Long Tall Sally x Karl Lagerfeld Paris capsule collection, I jumped at the opportunity. I love getting to represent the tall ladies out there. The Karl Lagerfeld Paris capsule is super classic. It’s French. It’s minimal. It’s rock n’ roll. Tweed blazers, super sleek leather pants, and extra nubby knit cardigans. And all in perfect fall shades: black, white, with pops of purple and pale pink. I layered mine up…just as Karl would. I gave it all a little pop with a god hoop earring. There’s such an elegance to this structured style, and classic silhouette. It’s timeless. Oh, and the shoes are also part of the collection. These block-heeled pumps are perfection now, aren’t they? Who said tall girls didn’t wear heels?

I can’t wait to reveal Part 2 of our shoot, coming soon.
