Amor a primera vista / Love at first sight


Quién me conozca, sabe que soy una persona clásica a la hora de vestir; manteniendo una paleta de colores que me identifica y cada tanto dando un shock de color a mi outfit.

Sin embargo, hay algo por lo que tengo debilidad: los accesorios, y mas si son tan lindos como este hermoso carterón que me crucé caminando por mi querido Recoleta.

Pertenece a la tienda Perez Sanz, ubicada en Posadas y Callao. Hasta el día de hoy desconocía esta marca. Se dedican a realizar distintos tipos de objetos, accesorios y esculturas, entre ellos, esta delicia.

Simplemente lo quiero.

Ps. Perdón por la foto, pero la tienda estaba cerrada.


Who knows a little bit about me, knows that I’m a classy gal when it comes to clothing; always wearing a palette that identifies me and once in a while wearing a shocking color.

However, I have weakness for accessories; further if they are as beautiful as this lovely bag that I found today walking in my beloved Recoleta neighborhood.

It belongs to Perez Sanz, located in Posadas and Callao. Up today I’ve never heard of this store. They develop different types of objects, accessories and sculptures, among them, this beauty.

I simply want it.

Ps. Sorry about the pic as the store was closed.

The Girlfriend Jean - because sometimes a guy’s favorite pair of jeans aren’t guy jeans at all.


Todos conocemos la famosa tendencia del ‘boyfriend jean’. 



Bueno, ahora los hombres no pueden estar mas celosos ya que Bonobos – marca dedicada a solucionar un problema muy común entre los hombres, los pantalones que no calzan bien – ha desarrollado el ‘girlfriend jean’.

En el siguiente video van a poder entender la historia detras de este genial desarrollo (??).


Gracias a Dios esto fue tan solo una broma de April’s fool (que sería nuestro equivalente al día de los inocentes, el tema es que allá hasta las marcas se lo toman muy en serio).

Por lo pronto, me parece una genial campaña de la marca para crear awareness y aumentar su popularidad en las redes sociales.

Ya que estamos, si sos hombre, te atreverías a usar los girlfriend jeans?

We all heard about the famous fashion trend called ‘boyfriend jean’ (image above). Ok, now men are no longer allow to be jealous about that, because thanks to Bonobos – a brand dedicated to design jeans for men that actually fit well – has developed the ‘girlfriend jean’.

In the promotional video above you will be able to understand more about the history behind this great product (??).

Thank God this was just an April’s fool joke  (in Argentina is called Innocent’s Day and it is celebrated on December 28th, also the day of my birthday). The thing is that in the United States, this day is taken more seriously compared to Argentina.

However, this was a great campaign for the brand in order to generate awareness and increase the popularity on their social networks.

By the way, if you are a guy, would you dare to wear the girlfriend jean?
