CARINE.

Hey dolls.

So I figure some of you heard Carine Roitfeld's announcement on her decision to leave her position as Editor-in-Chief of French Vogue, where she has worked since 2001, this coming January. Boohoo! I am a true fanatic of her work, both editorial and stylistically when forming part in the styling of French Vogue's beautiful covers. Roitfeld to me is a symbol of the proper way to misbehave. She had nudity, Tran-sexuality, Plus-size models, and beautiful photographs throughout her years with the magazine. Definitely a boundaries crosser. Along Editor-in-Chief of U.S Vogue, Anna Wintour, Carine Roitfeld definitely contributed a lot of positive changes to the art of not only fashion but of art and photography in journalism. WE'LL MISS YOUU! I wonder who will be the next Carine.

She said she doesn't have any plans for now, but that its time to move on. What do you guys think? Would the next Editor-in-Chief of Vogue be anyone already working for the magazine? Any suggestions?

Missing In Action for The Love of Fashion.

Hey my little Fashionistas! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I would love to know what you guys wore and how great the dinner was! My Hispanic family cooked a fabulous pernil and well seasoned turkey with rice, salad - and my favorite, DESSERT (Cheesecake *wink wink*). And Oh my god! That wine was delish. It almost tasted like apple cider, i absolutely loved it.

                               
                              



Unfortunately I couldn't play dress up this year because I was a little sick and had dinner in really casual lounge wear. Sucks, I know. But I can't wait for the Holidays where I'll be traveling to my mother's homeland and I'll be rocking a lot of Camel, Cheetah Print, and Metallics !


Sorry I've been M.I.A for a couple of days, but its crunch time here at F.I.T & I'm overloaded with Final Projects about designers and fashion businesses, and Prep-ing for Finals which are NEXT WEEK! I must love my fashion courses. Hahah. I've also been busy buying things for my trip to Dominican Republic in 2 weeks ! Can't wait to go places and do research in a place so close to my heart and see what people in this island are wearing and what is influencing them to dress that way!



'Till next week lovelies !
