Body Art

Let me show you something, you might think that this is not like a "girly thing" or something i would not be interested in, let me tell you are wrong, i really like it. The only thing i don't like of all this, is that people stereotype the ones with tattoos and see them like "different", for example i've heard that they have problems for finding a job, or with their family, girlfriend/boyfriend or friends. I think that this is art. They express, they can be something that represent someone or simply it can be something that you really like to be in your body. Here I have some tattoos i like. Enjoy them...






One for One


TOMS Shoes is a company based in Santa Monica California. It was founded in 2006 by Blake Mycoskie. The company designs and sells lightweight shoes based on the Argentine alpargata design.With every product sold, TOMS donate a pair to a person in need. This idea, came when Mycoskie went to Argentina.

Blake had once said of his revelation, "I was sitting on a farm pondering life, and it occurred to me, 'I'm going to start a shoe company, and for every pair that we sell, I'll give a pair to someone who needs them.'" He, took to wearing the local alpargata shoes. After Mycoskie noticed the numerous children without shoes in the poorer villages, he returned to the United States and sold his online driver education company to self-finance the shoe company. These shoes have also been worn by Argentine farmers for hundreds of years and were the inspiration for the classic style of TOMS. These canvas or cotton fabric shoes are now manufactured in many styles.
 But why shoes? He decided to be shoes because many children in developing countries grow up barefoot. Whether at play, doing chores or going to school, these children are at risk: A risk of disease, which can penetrate the skin through bare feet. Wearing shoes can help prevent these diseases. Also wearing shoes also prevents feet from getting cuts and sores. Not only are these injuries painful, they also are dangerous when wounds become infected. Many times children can't attend school barefoot because shoes are a required part of their uniform. If they don't have shoes, they don't go to school. If they don't receive an education, they don't have the opportunity to realize their potential.
I have one pair of TOMS, the are soooo comfortable; I really recomend them. Help the company! I swear you'll love them like I do and you will be giving a pair of shoes to children that doesn't have to wear. You can also help buying sunglasses. By purchasing them you give eye care services to these people that need it. If you are interested in learning more, click here -----> TOMS SHOES

Music is my boyfriend


Life without music wouldn't be life. Music saves people's lives; it creates an escape from reality, just like a drug. It helps to look into another perspective. It lift spirits and smoothes worries. When you listen to it, it's influensive and you think of nothing but of the greatness of it. It's not euphoria, it's the real thing. It lightens up people's moods when there's no one to comfort. Music is a feeling, it is made of the most vibrant and different of colors, it comes in all shapes and sizes, It is the nutrition for our heart. It's the best thing in the world! Music to me is like eating or drinking, it’s just something i need to do. It's essential to everyone's life. Without it everything would be nonsense and nobody would know how it feels to experience this freedom that you have when you listen to music. Imagine this world without music... how do you see it? boring, gray, just nonsense. So, enjoy music and live you life every second of it.

“You can turn off the sun, but I'm still gonna shine.” - Jason Mraz


I know a song I want to share... It's really good, and I hope you like it. It's called I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz.

 
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it

No, I won't give up


I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make

Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and gifts
We got yeah we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we didn't tend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn, how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
I'm still looking up

I won't give up on us
God knows I'm tough, he knows
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up





I got a secret, can you keep it?

One of my biggest dreams since like 2 years ago is to work as the head of marketing, as a fashion journalist or as the fashion editor in ELLE, VOGUE, INSTYLE or GLAMOUR. And, it would sound like hilarious, but I would like it to be not here in Mexico but in New York or in Italy. Since I was a little girl, I used to read all these magazines everytime I had the opportunity. I also watch America's Next Top Model just to see how these girls were preparing to be models, and to "learn" how to walk in the runway. Also I saw this t.v show called Project Runway to learn how to make clothes. Yes, I was crazy...
Now, I'm making as much as possible to study maybe these careers, and just to let you know I am subscribed to these magazines I mention, so I can receive information about it and of course to read it every month. Also you might wanna know that now I "know" how to walk in a runway thanks to all these episodes of ANTM.
I hope, one day you'll read my name in one of these magazines; wish me luck. (:

P.S If you want to see what this world of fashion is about, here I'll let you some links. They're from magazines of different countries and from some of my favorite brands.
