Para el Día de Hoy (Lazy Version)

Sometimes, this whole get-up-put-on-the-self-timer-pose-quickly-and-pray-that-you-get-at-least-one-good-shot ordeal becomes a bit too much, which is the main reason as to why I rarely update with personal outfits ... and today was going to be no different, but then I decided to get some photos with the webcam just because I didn't want to do anymore homework. Then I figured that I could upload those! (School makes me smart :) ) So, here's a couple of shitty photos of my outfit for the day .. woooo!

Traduccion:
A veces, eso de parate-pon-el-timer-haz-una-pose-super-rapido-y-reza-que-salga-al-menos-una-foto-buena se me hace que es demasiado, y es la mera mera razon de porque es raro que haga updates con mis outfits ... y hoy no fue nada diferente, pero luego decidi mensear con la webcam  porque me canse de hacer tarea. Ya despues me di cuenta que podia subir esas fotos! (La escuela me hace una persona sumamente inteligente :) ) Asi que aqui les dejo algunas fotos super chafas de mi outfit del dia .. wuuuu!

Para el Día de Ayer

So, smart me, safe me, took a long and hard fall during rock climbing class.
My right ankle hurts so bad ... it's unbelievable. However, I'm hoping that it is just a temporary pain.
As in, I'll be fine by the next rock climbing class (which is on Monday).
For the mean time, I'll be wearing flats, though. I guess I just want to try out this whole "cautious" way of living haha


Traducción:
Bueno, siendo la persona tan inteligente y segura que soy, me aventé una caída horrible en clase de escalada.
Mi tobillo derecho me duele horrores ... es irreal. Pero eso sí, espero que el dolor sea algo temporal.
Y temporal en el sentido de que espero que esté bien para la próxima clase (o sea, el Lunes).
Mientras tanto, andaré por la vida en flats. Supongo que es hora de que intente ser una persona que vive "con cuidado" jaja

Para el Día de Hoy

For those of you who do not know this past Wednesday, we (Mexicans) celebrated "200"  years of the "Independence" of Mexico (although to be fair, it was the fight for Independence that started 200 years ago, it wasn't the actual year we became independent).
So to celebrate this grand occasion, we had a "carne asada" at the boyfriend's house (because it would have been very silly to go out with all the insecurity in this city, however I am pleased to say that the "bad guys" didn't ruin the festivities).
And of course, guess what happened about halfway into the carne asada, after the logs and the charcoal were already lit up .... MY HEEL BROKE :(
The boyfriend had to drive me home so I could get another pair of shoes ... of course, that wasn't after he suggested I go around the carne asada with the broken heel -.-'
I leave you with some photos of the outfit I'm wearing today.

Traducción:


Para los que no saben, este Miércoles que pasó, nosotros (los Mexicanos) celebramos los "200" años de nuestra Independencia (aunque en realidad se celebra el comienzo de la guerra por la Independencia, ya que no nos independizamos hasta años despues).
Así que para celebrar esta monumental ocasión, nos juntamos en la casa de mi novio para hacer una carne asada y celebrar el grito (ya que habría sido un poco tonto salir con todo esto de la inseguridad en la ciudad, pero me complace decirles que los "malos" no hicieron algo para arruinar las festividades). 
Pero bueno, adivinen que pasó cuando ya estaban la leña y el carbón en el asador ... SE ROMPIO MI TACON!
Mi novio me tuvo que traer a mi casa para que me cambiara los zapatos ... pero claro, no sin antes haber sugerido que anduviera con el zapato roto el resto de la noche -.-'
Los dejo con unas fotos de lo que traigo puesto hoy.

Para el Día de Ayer

Lately, I've been hanging out a lot with some of the people I met at the Day Camp in which I participated this summer for my Social Service hours.
Let me tell you that it has been a very long time since I last laughed as much as I have these past couple of weeks and I am truly grateful for that.
The only "problem"? They think I dress a little bit funny.
Against their Hollister Co. shirts, I've decided to take this as a compliment (:

Traducción:
Últimamente me he estado juntando muchísimo con algunas de las personas que conocí en el Campamento en el que participé este verano para hacer mis horas de Servicio Social.
La verdad es que ya había pasado demasiado tiempo desde la última vez que me reí como lo he hecho estas últimas semanas ... y en verdad estoy muy agradecida por poder tener momentos tan felices otra vez.
El único "problema"? Ellos piensan que me visto chistoso.
Comparándome con sus playeras de Hollister Co., tomaré eso como un cumplido (:

PS. My laptop has now left this world to go to Computer Hell ... which laptop do you recommend I buy (not Mac's)?
PD. Mi laptop ya se fue al Infierno de las Computaras ... que laptop me recomiendan que compre (que no sea una Mac)?

new family members

Summer bores me.
Boredom makes me want to shop.
Here are some pieces into which I've invested my money this past week.

Traducción:
El verano me aburre.
El aburrimiento hace que vaya de compras.
He aquí algunas de las piezas en las que he invertido mi dinero esta semana.



Adrienne Vittadini shoes. You'll be seeing this a lot during the F/W seasons (:
Zapatos de Adrienne Vittadini. Estarán viendo estas hermosuras mucho durante las temporadas Otoño-Invierno.



Zara high-heeled gladiators. I love how the tassels give them a preppier vibe.
Sandalías altas estilo gladiador de Zara. Me encanta como se ven los tassels, muy preppy.

Bike necklace from Target. Bird necklace from Forever 21. Hat from The Gap.
Collar de bicicleta de Target. Collar de pájaro de Forever 21. Sombrero de The Gap.

Local market rings.
Anillos comprados en un mercado local.

Goat hair messenger bag from local market.

Bag/Bolsa: Thrifted

Phew ... sorry for all the photos, I got a bit carried away this time. Not doing summer school or working or anything at all is taking a toll on me, apparently.
Have you all been following the FIFA World Cup? I hope so.
If you are, you will know that Mexico finally beat, for the first time, the last World Cup's sub-champion and multiple times World Cup champions: France.
Mexico 2 - 0 France
It was a relief to finally get some good news after all the violence we've been living through (elementary schools are actually practicing "shooting drills" ... you know, like "fire drills")

Traducción:
Wow, perdón por todas las fotos, pero obviamente me emocioné un poquito. Esto de no hacer verano y no estar trabajando y simplemente no estar haciendo nada de provecho ya está empezando a afectarme.

Han estado viendo el Mundial? Espero que sí!
Imagínense: por fin, después de --literal-- toda la historia del futból, México le ganó a Francia!! Y no fue cualquier cosa:
México 2 - 0 Francia .. ja!
Que bueno que por fin recibimos algunas buenas noticias, francamente yo ya me harté de escuchar puras cosas de narcos y matanzas y secuestros. Las primarias en Monterrey ya están empezando a practicar que es lo que se debe de hacer en caso de que una balacera estalle cerca de estas ... a que hemos llegado??

Para el Día de Hoy

I am super excited because this summer we will be moving into a new house.
Right now, my parents, my brother and I live in a small apartment that was meant to be for my brother and myself only.
However, after things got real bad in my hometown, my parents came over here.
These photos were taken at the new house.
It's still not completely finished, but we're getting there.
Yay!!!
Oh, and btw, I got tired of the dark green background ...


Shirt: got it at Target

Para el Día de Hoy

And. So. You're. Back.
From outerspace!

Well, no... I'm not back from outerspace, I'm just back from the Industrial Design workshops at school.
We had to make a structure for an ice bucket. My partner and I decided to make a beehive.
But to do it, I had to go school in jeans, tennis shoes, and old high school shirts for six days. Because I obviously didn't want to ruin my clothes.
So today, after being free from the workshops, I decided to wear something super girly! haha, I deserved it ;)



Dress: Target
Sandals: Brantano
Bag: vintage
Key Necklace: Tiffany & Co.
Watch: Forever 21
Flower bracelets: Oysho
Green bracelet: Coach


 
btw, this is my ice bucket structure, with its tray:
