What do you like about being a Latina?

I love that Latinos are always happy despite any circumstance we always get ahead. My skin color is the essence of being Latin, the culture we have, the music, the way we dress, I love everything.

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

Fashion is the center of everything, it simply talks about each person, their style, their way of thinking, each person has a different style when dressing. Simply without fashion we would be a very gray world without color without style and without life. My style is very casual but at the same time very elegant depending on the place or moments, I am very fresh.



Who is your fashion icon?

Carolina Herrera, is super elegant and fresh


How does your culture influence your personal style?

We are loosing out culture... Nowadays, almost all the stereotypes stimulated by many people have been broken that the truth from my point of view is very good, culture is life. My culture is very beautiful since I do almost everything I love; modeling, dancing, singing, acting. For me, culture is like music without it it would not make sense.

What do you like about being Latina?

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?

Fashion is part of the environment in which I work, so it is present in my life day by day. I am not attached to any style, sometimes I like to be more girly sometimes I go with darker looks, I love to try everything.

Who is your fashion icon?

Karl Lagerfeld.


How does your culture influence your personal style?

I love my Mexican culture, I could not say that 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.

What do you like about being Latina?

The character, passion, determination, sensuality and strength that characterizes the Latin woman makes me proud to be one.

What does fashion mean to you and how would you define your style?
  • Fashion is a form of expression and visual characterization which allows us to identify or differ from others, for me, each style can vary depending on the culture, age or social position and is like the cover of a magazine, our interior being the content of it, and its cover being our appearance or as we decided to introduce ourselves to society. My style can be varied, due to the extensive cultural exposure I have had, I do not consider having a single style and on the contrary, I like to experiment with several styles depending on my mood or where I am mentally in that day / moment.
 Who is your fashion icon?

I would say that I love Victoria Beckham's style because of its elegance and class. Impeccable woman and her style is very suitable for every occasion. But sometimes I can also identify with the popular style of the Kardashians that is so criticized but that everyone wants to imitate. I admire it because it is a fearless style, direct and showing skin without paying attention to any criticism. It is a style that, as false as it may seem, to me, is very real.


 How does your culture influence your personal style?

Because my cultures are like opposite poles I choose my style depending on where I am:
Fashion in Japan is very variable and has total freedom, despite that there are outfits for occasions and everyone respects that. In simple things, for example, if I go to a wedding, I will not wear a white dress or an extravagant neckline because I am aware that it is the day of the bride and nobody should take attention from her. Or for example, if I'm going on a date, I'm going to apply the “neckline up or down” law, which means that on a date it's only used or a low-cut blouse and something that covers the bottom, or if I'm going to wear a miniskirt, I'm going to cover my chest. Because if I show you both, I am insinuating myself a lot, and if I don't show anything, it is lack of interest to look attractive.

What do you like about being Latina?

What I like about being Latina is that being born in a country in South America, Argentina, because of the social, political and economic conditions that "trains" you, teaches you to survive, to tolerate and overcome many situations that other people Because they were born in more developed countries, they probably never had to live.

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

Something that I can highlight is that I like to study a lot. I chose to start the Social Communication career when I was 17 as soon as I finished school and it turned out to be something that I love. I travel a lot every day to get to the faculty. In Buenos Aires the distances are very long and chaotic but still I love being able to come to study and learn.

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

I love Rhapsody. I love your Hippie Chic style. Decontracted and canchero. If I could, I would always dress like this. 


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

Most of my wardrobe is made up of the color Pink. I love to wear pink in my looks, I always agree or even wear many pink clothes at the same time.

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

 Gigi Hadid ♡. I love his style and the way he carries his physical appearance. He knows he looks good and he doesn't. She is always SHE, genuine, follows her own tendency.


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

In 5 years I would like to be received from my career as a Communicator and at the same time be working as a famous or trend model in countries abroad or even in Argentina. Impose a style of Real Beauty and that I am known for that.

I would also like to be a producer in major brands, help with my vision of a model that started her career at 15 years.

What do you like about being Latina?

 Being Latina is like living a party 24/7! Latinos transmit joy, flavor, charisma and authenticity. We are well recognized anywhere in the world. Whether for our delicious cuisine, multiculturalism or positivism.

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

Fashion is the art of expressing how you feel or your identity through different textures, cuts, styles, prints and more. I would define my style as, ‘Artsy’ because it depends on how I feel or on what I want to transmit that day, that the design or creation of the blouse, hat, jacket or any accessory that I carry with me will vary. Each artistic style you use will be different, since everyone has their own idea of "art." That is what makes my style so unconventional.

Who is your fashion icon?

I like Tyra, because she is authentic. Therefore, her authenticity, makes me, my own fashion icon.


How does your culture influence your personal style?

My culture influences my personal style because I feel of the land which I come from, therefore I like to wear on several occasions garments or accessories of the city in which I live as straw hats, tagua accessories or creations from any corner of my country.

What do you like about being Latina?

I feel very fortunate to have been born in a Latin country that values customs and traditions, where simplicity is our main characteristic and family is always first. I like everything about being Latina, I hope to encourage foreign countries to get to know Latin culture.


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

For me, fashion means a way of expressing your personality and lifestyle. I would define my style as unique since I don't like being like everyone else, but unique.

Who is your fashion icon?

I like to be original in my photos, videos and my work in general. But if I have to mention a fashion icon to follow it is without a doubt, Marilyn Monroe.


How did you become Miss Teen Mexico?

I was interested in beauty contests since I was a child I participated in various local competitions, and when the contest Miss Petite Veracruz 2018 came out, I spoke with my family, they told me that they would support me in everything. I participated and won the contest. I have also represented Veracruz in the national Miss Petite Mexico contest where I was named the best queen of queens, I also hold a national title, Teen Petite Mesoamerica Mexico 2019, and now I'm going to El Salvador to represent Mexico in that line where I am ready to represent Mexico at a global level.

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

Clueless, apart from being my favorite movie, I think that would be the title of mine.

How does your culture influence your style?

I am a girl who likes to learn new things, and not be stranded in one place, I like progress. Likewise, my Mexican culture, my culture, and the culture that my parents have taught me, have formed my personality, my style and my way of working.

What inspires you?

Many people told me that I could not achieve my dreams, because I am short, period. Therefore, my interest in beauty pageants increased, I did it for every person who told me that I was not going to be able to. I also developed my personality, followed my dreams and now I am a voice for young people, encouraging them to believe in their dreams and to keep trying even though they may get some “NO,” keep chasing that “YES.”

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

I honestly can't say I have a favorite clothing designer. I believe garments are something that should fit comfortably and perfectly for your body type. I tend to search for fit rather than brand. However, my favorite handbag designers are Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, and Chanel. I love the pristine chic and elegant styles that are built to last a lifetime.

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

Some of my goals include further developing and specializing in my career as a physical therapist. Additionally, I look forward to more magazine publishing and growing as an influencer and lifestyle blogger. I also anticipate a baby in our home within the next 5 years!
