Hace unas semanas acudí a la presentación de la colección Miembros de Cuatro (Primavera - Verano 2014) del diseñador Rafa Cuevas. En esta ocasión el diseñador colaboró con NIKE SPORTSWEAR logrando mezclar tendencias sports, con un look fresco y urbano en cada una de sus prendas.
Algo que me llamó mucho la atención y por lo cual quise hacer este post, es porque Rafa es de los pocos diseñadores que se aventuran a diseñar ropa unisex. Creo que la colección logra sumergir los dos sexos en el gusto por divertirse al vestir y poder lograr un outfit con toque rebelde, mostrando un lado femenino y masculino al mismo tiempo.
¡Click!... Es uno de mis sonidos favoritos, es también una palabra que me define como fotógrafa y la cual tengo hasta tatuada en mi dedo índice.
Uno de los motivos por los cuales amo la foto es por la emoción de escuchar ese sonido que registra el momento indicado que yo visualizo a través de la cámara. Sé que hoy en día existe un sin número de imágenes que bombardean al ojo humano constantemente. Conforme ha pasado el tiempo, me acostumbro a la idea de que todo mundo se siente "fotógrafo" y que en su vida diaria, siempre existirá un "lucky shot" que logre capturar el instante perfecto que ellos.
La fotografía define instantes y eso la vuelve única y especial, pero hoy en día compite cada vez mas con un compañero de vida que es el video. Bueno o malo, los dos comparten la visión de capturar momentos y se han vuelto una herramienta cada vez mas importante para interactuar en un mundo deseoso por ver y conocer cosas nuevas o simplemente para informar o mostrar lo que pasa cada segundo a nuestro alrededor y en diferentes partes del planeta.
En lo que me corresponde como fotógrafa de moda, quise hacer un pequeño experimento en donde pongo a prueba las dos herramientas tratando de visualizar y entender lo mejor de ambos mundos, mi amigo Issac fue el ejecutor del video y yo tome control de la cámara fotográfica. Acompañados de buena música y de un ambiente totalmente "fashion", nos dejamos llevar por el momento y capturamos nuestra visión de un conjunto de imágenes que se cruzaron ante nuestros ojos...
Si me preguntan a mi, puedo decir que el resultado final pudo guardar la esencia de cada uno de nosotros; y en nuestra muy particular forma de ver las cosas, cada quien plasmó un concepto diferente y a la vez extraordinario. No es hablar solo de ropa o del maquillaje perfecto, es tener la capacidad de poder mostrar un todo que refleje lo que cada quien percibe... es plasmar tu visión y convertirlo en algo hermoso, los invito a que lo vean y hagan sus conclusiones ustedes mismos.
Are you looking for new makeup trends for the upcoming Fall Season?... In that case, I have the perfect new product for you.
NARS Cosmetics has just released it's new makeup line which is now available in Mexico, exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue and Sephora.
The main attributes of the collection are modern matte tones combined with hypnotic colours that give you a minimalistic but glamorous look.
Create your sexy smoky eyes look using the Black Moon Eyeliner Pencil, combined it with the "KAMCHATKA" Single Eyeshadow and finish up with some navy smoke toned Eye Contour Brush #14.
If you prefer a more natural look, try out the golden "LAS RAMBLAS" Larger Than Life Long-Wear Eyeliner that will make your eyes a vibrant touch.
In this occasion I had the pleasure to collaborate with extraordinary people of the Mexican fashion scene. Gina from High on Fashion was in charge of the styling, while Gustavo Bortolotti created the hairstyles. NARS's makeup artist Alejandro Ruiz took care of the rest... The outcome are these gorgeous looks that should give you quite some inspiration to perfect your style!
I enjoyed very much being part of the shooting and seeing the makeup artist transform the models. I hope the pictures I took capture the essence of the new collection and show you the possibilities of those amazing NARS products.
Today I want to introduce to one of my favourite painters in Mexico. His name is Jorge Tellaeche and since quite a while I follow his work and I can tell you... I'm a fan of everything he does! I had the opportunity to visit him at his studio for some drinks and a nice chat about art... Call me crazy but I felt at home immediately, talking about influences, inspirations, colors, music and creativity. Jorge was fortunate to be able to study in San Diego for several years, but even though, he never forgot his Mexican roots. In matter of fact, he took his Mexican-American roots and created a bridge between them. He calls himself "Pochito" because he still mixes both languages and enjoys to feeling in both of them. During the last four years Jorge has developed several projects in painting, graphic design and fashion. He is the kind of artist that isn't afraid to experiment with new things; as a graphic designer he discovered his passion working with different people in the art scene. Even though he enjoys expressing himself in all kinds of visual arts, he decided to focus on painting, becasue that's what he loves most. He has worked with international and national companies like Amnesty International Mexico, Adidas, Nestle, Hacienda la Lomita, Comex, among others. Besides having his own web page where you can see his work, Tellaeche also writes his own blog where you can read about what he is up to;and trust me, since he is doing all kind of crazy projects it's quite helpful to understand his point of view or just what is on his mind while creating new things. Nowadays he considers himself a fulfilled painter, because through his canvas he achieves to express his dreams, concepts, and ideas.
