I'm grateful and proud to be of Mexican descent. My parents are originally from Guadalajara, Mexico and my brothers and I were born in LA. I love that I'm fluent in Spanish and English. I also love that I'm versatile and diverse in culture and background. I feel sexy, strong, confident and unlimited with prosperity.

I see fashion as a fun and creative way to express myself through clothes and accessories. I love dressing up in chic, fitted outfits that show my femininity.

I like to switch my styles up while remaining true to my sense of being.

Paradise

Sofia Ceballos

What do you like about being Latina?

I love the freedom we have, and the type of body, our movement and color that makes us unique! We have a certain human warmth that makes many people feel attracted to Latinos.

What does fashion mean to you and how would you define your style?

Fashion for me is not something that has so much to do with what is literally trending, it is something that defines each person and helps us to excel our different personalities. I would define my style as sporty almost every day. I love wearing jeans with tennis or boots and a crop top and a jacket, or I can also wear a casual hat and a nice shirt, but I also love to dress well and wear heels because I love them and heels make a woman look so attractive! I love all my styles, but since I am into fitness I love wearing tennis, which also fit me great because I am a dancer. I also consider myself very contemporary since I love wearing loose clothes!

Who is your fashion icon?

I have many, but I love: Blake Lively, since I was in Gossip Girl I said, "I have to dress like her!"
Zendaya also fascinates me and Cara Delevingne.

How does your culture influence your personal style?

By the time you see me, you already know that I am Latina, simply because of my curves. They are something that cannot be hidden ... and because of my way of moving and dressing when I wear crop tops. I have a lot of waist and hips and I also love Mexican food!

If your life was a movie, what should be the title?

I don't know but it would definitely be a drama or a romantic movie but always dramatic!
"Sofia's diary," or perhaps, "Passion for triumph."

What actresses or models do you think have the best style?

I really like Blake, Zendaya, Cara, Danna Paola, Emily Ratajkowski, Alessandra Ambrosio, among others.

Julieth Rodríguez

What do you like about being Latina?

I like the versatility we can have and show in our daily life. As we work, we dedicate time to our ventures, we take care of our pets and we are aware of household chores, at the same time we can meet social events and look beautiful and elegant.

We fight against everything that comes our way, we maintain our good energy and our whole life has a kind of special spice, that Latin spice.

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

I have to do a thousand things daily, from very early I have to meet various tasks and sometimes I end up running from one place to another. Being organized is fundamental, I can not have a messy apartment, when I have to get ready, I try many outfits until I get the perfect one, but at the same time I clean everything up.

I am one of those persons who has a little box for everything, all my shoes are organized in boxes, my makeup is very organized as well, I have all my night makeup in one place, as well as my clothes, I order my clothes by color. Many people are surprised at how organized I am.

What is your favorite brand / designer?

Gucci is one of my favorite brands. I like to wear it because its pieces have a lot of black and gold, colors that I love to use.
In addition to being a brand that always has different or particular garments to call it in some way, they allow me to look different, it’s not easy to find another girl wearing the same clothes.

What do you like about that brand?

Shoes and accessories, I am not as classy or simple when choosing my outfits. I love sparkles and outstanding pieces to complement my look. Gucci always has shoes and accessories that you have to look at, completely different and elegant, as well as super trendy! I love that.

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

When dressing, black is essential in my closet. Because I can combine them with any trending color, I can play a lot with my makeup and the best thing is that black garments are versatile to wear at any time of the day.

I have many black skirts, palazos, pants, blouses and a lot of underwear of this color. Because I really like it.

And if we talk about bright colors, I think that one of the ones I love to wear the most, because it also highlights my skin a lot, is the color red. Jeans with a red blouse and nude heels are the perfect outfit for my day to day.

What trends are great in your city?

I am currently living in Mexico City and I think it is very common to see women wear metallic colors, glitters and sequins, both in footwear, clothing and accessories.

During the day and night, you will always see women in bright clothes, regardless of the time or place. So I think it's a trend that a lot of women use in this city.

What actresses or models do you think have the best style?

Two references come to mind: The first is a model of my beautiful Colombian country and is called Ariadna Gutierrez, her style is sophisticated, very clean, and like me, she wears many striking garments when it comes to dressing.

And the second one is Camila Coelho, a Brazilian Fashion Blogger who in recent years has inspired me by the way she mixes her clothes, the arrangement of hair and makeup. I love all her outfits and I confess that sometimes I try to imitate her looks and her hair because she dares to look different.

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

I am a woman who loves challenges and for the next few years, if it is in God’s plan, I hope to have my clothing line ready in the market, I want to open several stores in different cities of the country, which allow women to have a place where they can put together different styles for any occasion.

That they feel beautiful, empowered and with people around them who can help them feel comfortable, beautiful and with advice in all aspects. Not only with his clothes.

This along with developing my career as an actress. I was recently part of a series representing a very nice character and I hope that new doors will open from this experience.

That affectionate, attentive, sexy vibes that Latin women have, and that are recognized worldwide for that. The taste to dance, the warmth, we are a great culture.

What does fashion mean to you and how would you define your style?

I love my Mexican culture, I could not say that I include it every day in my style of dress but if it is present in my taste, my way of life, my beliefs etc.

If your life was a movie, what should be the title?

Intrigue. The truth is that I do not have so many things planned, I let it flow according to life and the opportunities that come my way, one month I am in Mexico the next I am out, so that word completely defines my lifestyle.

Emily R.
