Lotus Mendes I Love You!

YES YES YES! Our Lotus Mendes rings have finally arrived! We had been looking at them for such a long time, and we finally get to have them in our hands. We needed to take these babies out for a ride as soon as they arrived!

Seriously, how couldn't anyone else come up with these ideas before? Angela and I now believe Victoria (the creator of Lotus Mendes), must really be some kind of a genius for creating such unique and beautiful jewelry. We decided to ask her how and when she began making jewelry, and she told us she had been designing jewelry for over ten years, but due to requests and demands she started her label. Obviously, If she were my friend I would definitely ask her to make some for me!

The coolest thing about these pieces, is that each and every one of them has its own meaning, which makes them even more special and unique.

They're such great pieces for spring and summer. We're really into neon colors, and these are perfect!

If you don't know Lotus Mendes yet, you really need to check it out (here). You will definitely fall in love.

"My main message is for woman to understand that they are amazing, powerful creatures! and that when you believe in yourself anything is possible" Victoria - creator of Lotus Mendes

Red Gabardine

Watch our video, it's kind of funny!

Hello Ladies,

I've always wanted a red gabardine, so last year I dragged my mom to the mall and we got this awesome red coat and, let me tell you, It works perfectly for Boston weather. I also loved the tights, I got those from Urban Outfitters. They have different designs but I really liked this one!

About the video, Angela and I were so bored last week that we decided to make a video performing the song "Super Bass" by Nicki Minaj but with our little touch :) haha enjoy!!!

P.s.: We love your comments so let us know what you think about the gabardine and the tights!! 

Love,

AL

Hi ladies,

Our friend Iryna, wanted to take some pictures of us for her portfolio. We obviously agreed to that, knowing how great of a photographer she is. She has taken pictures of us in the past, and they always turn out great. These are just a very few of the pictures she took.

The last two pictures are a close-up of the rings and bracelet we got last week from LYLIF.com, a  Trendy Jewelry (click to check it out) store that offers very cute/cool accessories. They always have the trendiest rings and bracelets, so you should definitely check their website too! Oh and just in case you were wondering, the Zebra ring is one whole three finger ring (people ask about it).

Do you like them?

Beautiful Sauvage Swimwear Suits!

Hi ladies

Angela and I started collecting swimsuits for this summer already. We are obsessed with swimsuits and love buying lots and lots of them to wear during the summer. 

Some weeks ago, we were doing our groceries and stopped at the magazine racks to check out the Sports Illustrated 2012 Swimsuit edition, and found about Sauvage Swimwear (Click Here). We decided to go into their website to check out all their swimwear. We ended up choosing two beautiful pieces, one for each. You guys should check it out too because the swimsuits they sell are unbelievable! I promise you won't regret your visit and if you're planning on getting new swimsuits for the summer, this would be a great opportunity to start! 

These are the pictures that were featured on Sports Illustrated

The swimsuits were packed in the cutest little white bags with colored paper. It made us feel like we went all the way to CA to buy them ourselves.

These are some pictures of the swimsuits

and a close up of the details, so you can see them better:

This is how they look

We loved the back of the lace-up one piece swimsuit. We think it looks very elegant and the cut is just perfect!

The two piece swimsuit, also looked very elegant. Our favorite part about it was the twisted halter on the neck and the velvet fabric. We had never seen a velvety swimsuit before, and this one was just so unique.

You'll be seeing these A LOT, on our summer posts!

Do you guys like them? We think they're so cool!

leave your thoughts about them, and if you into the website tell us what you think!

besos, 

AB & AL

DIY studded shorts!

I had been thinking about making my own shorts for a while and decorating them with studs and paint, but never got my way around it until now. I didn't know where to buy the studs until I saw Una's DIY studded collar here.

I first cut my old black H&M pants (not so black anymore...) and bleached the ends. I then added the studs under the pockets, and finally painted little dots on them and the heart on the back pocket.

I'm not sure if I really like them, but this was my first try and wanted to show you guys. I have many more studs left so I'll keep on trying to make more things. I'm thinking about making a clutch next? I think it'll be cute!

Thank you so much for leaving us such sweet comments <3
