Hey Guys,

JLo's Sexy Grammy Shoes

Gwyneth Paltrow's Performance Shoes!

Did you check out the Grammy's Sunday? Honestly I wasn't to fond of it, but congrats to all the winners! I really think my Justin Beiber was robbed thought! :'( .  But the red carrpet was great!!! My fave celebrity look came from Ms. Selena Gomez (Mrs. Beiber :p)! I'm telling you, for an 18 year old, she has such an amazing sense of style! Oh & I absolutely adored J.Lo's and Gwyneth Paltrow's shoes! They were super sexxxyyyyy!

Jess and I went over our Grammy fashion opinions on the radio. Yup, that's right, we debuted our very own "SCENE STEALER" segment. As of this past Monday Pretty Lou and the Front Stage fam has us on EVERY Monday. We will bring you the latest gossip and scoop on what's new! This past week Lou really put us and his guest co-host, Jasmine (@Jasygirl24) on blast lol. Our half hour debut turned into the WHOLE SHOW! It got pretty personal and scandalous lol but I guess that's what we get for being on the most controversial online radio show ! Oh and join the LIVE message board that goes on the site. I'm telling you it gets pretty crazy.

Our LXIV bag!

Jess and I also went to a fashion show at the Rivington Hotel. It was actually a Fall 2011 Exclusive Press Collection by LXIV "In the Raw". I witnessed a lot of knee high socks on the runway (think Catholic school girl uniforms). There were also a lot of cropped belly-bearing shirts. We had a moment with the designer, Chou Xiong-Neri after the show. She was very proud with the outcome of her first show. Chou even showered us and her guests with a LXIV bag! So cute.

Juan Bago & "O"

After meeting all these amazing young entrepreneurs, Jess and I thought it would be great to shed some light on them... so as of next Monday we will have a  monthly "Spotlight" segment, where we will acknowledge these "go-getters".  Our first Spotlighters, will be the "Pan Con Queso" stars! I know you guys seen this?! If not click here, the duo kills it with the "Black & Yellow" - Dominican parody - remix! We'll have an exclusive with BOTH of the stars on Monday, so stay tune for that.

What's Up!

This week was has been kind of hectic.  

Leather tank w/silk tunnel pants

But Samantha and I managed to find some time to close out Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2011 with a very unknown fashion designer.


We headed to the Rivington Hotel to catch the LXIV "In the Raw" Fall 2011 Exclusive Press Collection.  The designer, Chou Xiong-Neri presented her new line with 10 original pieces. The collection was very modern with unique materials, including leather, silk and alpaca. 


I wish I could write more about the designer and the label...but I couldn't find any information! ::confused face:: For now you can check out her twitter and facebook accounts.

Alpaca top w/leather & silk skirt

Thankfully, we got to chat with Chou after the show for a bit.  A student of Parsons The New School of Design, she obviously loves her fashion and everything and anything that expresses one's individualism. Be sure to be on the look out for her developing projects, LXIV Label and Haute Abettor!  


This week we also debuted our half-hour "Scene Stealers" segment on the Front Stage Radio show with Pretty Lou on Urban Latino Radio.  Needless to say, we got pretty "raw" on the show about how we felt about Valentine's Day and other topics (::embarassed face::). We'll be on the show every Monday from 10:30pm-11:00pm, so be sure to tune in!


We also want to announce that we are an official member of the Blogs by Latinas Directory! Blogs by Latinas was created in 2008, after Monique (the creator & founder) did some researching on the internet for other Latina bloggers. Her initial search came up with very few results, so she decided to create a place where Latina bloggers could find each other. The site now has more than 1000 Latina bloggers in the directory and grows daily.  We're super honored and excited to be part of this amazing blogger community.

Enjoying some wine

Song of the Week: "Good Morning" - Kanye West (This gets me in a really good mood in the morning lol...but I like the Kickdrums Remix way better featuring Big Sean.)
