Lockdown


I made my sister play photographer outside our house because i decided like getting
cleaned up and dressed right before working out hah, but really more because i wanted to
wear that gray over sized blazer i got that same day at the thrift store for $1.00 and
all though looking back i find what i put together was something subtle compared to what
i usually wear, It's a good change all together its good to reinvent yourself slightly and
try different things from time to time, I'm also obsessed with tucking tacky necklaces
under collard shirts i have no clue where this came from..

Top: Geoffrey Beene, Bottom: Forever21 women 75cent thrift store.
Blazer: ?, Necklace: old Necklace i found laying around and Chanel charm
i also found laying around, Shoes: H&M.
This weekend consisted of a family baby shower, for a family friend.
If you are Mexican i mean not white wash, REAL Mexican you know that its a
trend to have Tacos grilled by the pounds for the guest, there is no acomidation
for a vegetarian so when you are stuck in a helpless situation you better be
creative and follow what i pulled out, I made my own vegetarian tacos with
onions, cilantro, lemon, red & guacamole salsa, beans, and my new
obsession Papalo Leaves. Its an ancient plant, found all over Mexico,
the American Southwest and parts of South America
they have this
certain refreshing scent and you can include it in almost anything.
I smashed some of it into this fresh cucumber juice my aunt made
and i know anyone would go crazy for this its must!
