What do you like about being Latina?

I love being a Latina because to me it's the best of both worlds! The Latino community is very close, family is very important to us and I love the colorful culture and being able to demonstrate that in our food, fashion and music!

What’s something about you that people would be surprised to know?

Despite being Latino, people especially Mexicans would probably assume that I can eat super spicy food...but truth be told I am a whimp when it comes to spicy food!

What are your favorite colors and outfits that make up most of your closet?

I love the color PINK! but I also love red, yellow and anything bright! My closet mainly consists of black, white, pinks and neutral colors. I'm currently obsessed with jean jackets and high-waisted jeans and or shorts! but my outfits tend to vary depending on what inspires me that day.

What trends are big in your city?

I live in Houston so the trends can vary from time to time, but now with spring rolling around I'd say ruffles, off the shoulder tops, dresses, romper styles such as cropped set or with long pants are also pretty trendy right now and basically anything that makes you look cute but comfy cause living in Houston the heat is NO joke!

What is your favorite brand/designer? What do you like about that brand?

My favorite designer is Tory Burch from their sandals, to their jewelry to their handbags. Their designs are unique, the materials of the products are exceptional and they offer great customer service which is a big plus for me! I love the brand in general and what they stand for. I also love supporting women entrepreneurs, I believe It's uplifting, it's encouraging and the world needs more women entrepreneurs/boss babes!

I also love brands such as Altar'd State and Kendra Scott, these brands are not only created by women as well but they contribute their time, money and effort into pouring back into the community and to me that is HUGE.

Which actresses or models do you believe have the best style?

I absolutely love Blake Lively's style! So gorgeous, effortless and stunning! What I love most about her style is that it's trendy but modest at the same time. She looks beautiful without having to show her goodies.

I also love Roselyn Sanchez style! So chic and stylish! I also get outfit inspiration from Eva Longoria and Jessica Alba two other amazing women boss babes!

Where do you see yourself in 5 years and what are your goals?

I see myself creating, inspiring and using my platform to impact and touch as many lives as I can. I want to inspire women from all over the world to be all that God created us to be! As a Latina lifestyle blogger I not only want to talk about the latest trends in fashion but also use the opportunity to build a strong community and inspire women to use their gifts and talents to do the same. Together we are stronger and I truly believe that.

What’s something about you that people would be surprised to know?

I have a different way of doing things than other people. I am a very creative and empowered person, therefore one of my goals is helping girls discover the power that is inside of them. I would like to show the world that there isn’t one way to do the things we love, because the true empowerment come from inside of you and then outside of you. For that reason, I created my fashion blog, to teach women to believe in themselves and in their own style.

What are your favorite colors and outfits that make up most of your closet?

I really don’t have a favorite color because I love all colors. I think, we dress according to how we feel.

One of my favorite women designer is Carolina Herrera, because knows how to dress women in an elegant way. And my favorite male designer is Jeremy Scott, because he is always breaking design paradigms.

Carolina Chang

What do you like about being Latina?

I feel lucky to be born in a Latin community and there are several reasons why. First of all, I get to be surrounded around warm/happy people, that work hard every day to achieve their goals and constantly care for their loved ones. With the pass of time I have noticed how friendly and supporting they can be regardless of the country they come from. Something that strong as our sense of unity, in my opinion, something very special that can only be found in the Latin community.

Second, there are many aspects of the Latin culture that I proudly enjoy in my daily life. For example, I love Latin music! In fact, I listen to it every single day (hahaha)and can’t get enough of it! Oh! And please don’t get me started on the food! I basically die for any type of Latin food: Mexican, Colombian, Cuban, Ecuadorian, etc…

What’s something about you that people would be surprised to know?

Both of my parents are from China, but I was born in Ecuador. I speak three languages: Spanish, English and Chinese. When people hear me speaking Spanish they get surprised and most of them ask where did I learn to speak it so well.Also I am a foodie. I love food and I can confess that trying different kinds of cuisines makes me happy.

What are your favorite colors and outfits that make up most of your closet?

Some of my favorite colors are pink, purple, red, and gold but I don’t see much of them in my closet. However, most of my closet is black! I’m obsessed with that color when it comes to clothes.

My closet has a little bit of everything but bikinis and crop tops make up most of my closet. I can’t get enough of them.

What trends are big in your city?

It depends on each person’s style; Miami is a diverse city with people from all over the world. I have seen a lot of denim skirts, crop tops, bikinis, active wear and rompers around.In my personal opinion, Miami is bikini season 365 days of the year. Just add a pair of sunglasses and a cute cover up!

What is your favorite brand/designer? What do you like about that brand?

I would say some of my favorite brands/designers are Lulifama, Ale by Alessandra, Lover + Friends, Topshop and Forever 21. They have a varied piece of clothing to choose from and I love how their clothes fit my body.

Which actresses or models do you believe have the best style?

At the moment I am obsessed with Alexis Ren, Cindy Prado, Alejandra Ghersi and Renee Somerfield. They are all really talented and I love their style!

Where do you see yourself in 5 years and what are your goals?

In 5 years, I want to cross out some items from my bucket list such as owning a small successful business, traveling around the world (especially to exotic places), growing my Instagram audience and hopefully inspire others the way I have been inspired by current Bloggers/Influencers.

Natalia Mayo

What do you like about being Latina?

As I get older I learn to love being Latina more and more. When I was younger I hated the fact that I was different than all of my American peers whose families only spoke English. However, now as an adult I love all of the opportunities it gives me. I speak another language, I can understand and empathize with most cultures and their differences, and that I have been raised to love and give all that I have. I think being a mujer Latina means strength, power and love and I don’t think there’s anything more beautiful than that.

What’s something about you that people would be surprised to know?

Even though I work in fashion, love clothes, and am a former Wilhelmina model, I think the thing that most surprises people about me is that I used to professionally race cars. To this day, my father and I will travel on weekends to various car races and beat all of the boys.

What are your favorite colors and outfits that make up most of your closet?

I usually like to keep things simple. I try to match neutral colors with one pop of color to stand out. I would say my closet consists of mostly black/grey/white/tan with the occasional loud print or bright color to add a little bit of life.

What trends are big in your city?

Naturally NYC is known for its all black no matter what season it might be. However, I think lately people are trying to break out of that trend and give a little more color and life to the sidewalks of New York. Walking to my office in Bryant Park, I have been seeing a lot more outstanding prints and pops of colors in most people’s outfits.

What is your favorite brand/designer? What do you like about that brand?

I may be a little biased because I work for headquarters, but lately I’ve really learned to love Michael Kors RTW. Seeing how much work and detail goes into the entire garment making process, I’ve really appreciated the pieces that come out of it. I love brands and designers that focus on fits. I think a piece can be beautiful but if it doesn’t fit the woman like it is supposed to, it isn’t desirable.

Which actresses or models do you believe have the best style?

Kaia Gerber. She comes from an empire of fashion icons and seems to just be continuing that legacy.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years and what are your goals?

I currently run Production for Michael Kors Women’s RTW. I also competed in January for the title of Miss New York USA and finished in the Top 19 and was also awarded Miss Congeniality. I plan to compete again this year as well as for the title of Miss Long Island. I hope that in five years I have accomplished one of my many dreams as either becoming more senior in the fashion corporate field or using the title of Miss New York to start my own business venture.
