Last Friday was a big day for me, in addition to having my interview for the Córdova and Fernós Congressional Internship, it was my first time covering an event for the fashion internship I got with Ego Moda & Estilo Magazine. The event was a fashion show for the jewelry designer Ivelisse Nieves called "Las dos Fridas", which was inspired by one of Frida Kahlo's paintings called "My dress hanging there". What a coincidence, huh, it was probably meant to be, as my friend Ana said. The whole event was incredible, I got to go behind the scenes, and enjoy the actual scene having cocktails, following the photographers, and mingling; introducing myself was fun because of the reaction of people realizing my name was the title of the show. I wore an all white look, which I was yearning to try, but was saving it for an event like this. I would have to say that my favorite piece of the look is the Zara Culotte Shorts, that have been around the blog scene quite a lot in similar all white looks too, but I wanted to try the trend and the iconic piece for myself (I guess almost anyone can pull them off if they are brave enough). The white blouse I wore is from Anne Taylor, and for the event I wore my Valija Gitana snake skin sandals, but I prefer the look a lot more with the new Sora Sandals from Shoedazzle, which are perfect for the summer. If you want to see a bit of the fashion show, I posted below a couple of vine videos I took (thank goodness for this app, which I am so hooked on so you better go follow Frida Lorraine) way better than just iPhone photos. You can see more photos of the event on www.egomoda.com as well.
