  • The wonderful folks from Vegas.com picked up on my style blog and wondered if I would be able to share a look that would fit the occasion for a swanky place like Rose. Rabbit. Lie. at The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas. Now, with a little free time on my hand, I finally got to tinkering and place out, not one, but two looks. It's basically 20s inspired looks that would be appropriate for a place like Rose. Rabbit. Lie. and I immediately thought of my friend Sabrina - 20s fashion happens to be her favourite. I hope I do it justice with my version of a 20s inspired look.
    There's plenty of inspirations to go by, like the recent magnificent costume job on The Great Gatsby, but I tried to steer slightly off track for obvious reasons. Look 1 is more on the elegant side, blurring the lines between conservative sophistication and seductive sensuality. Look 2 has more of the wild fun and youth vibe. Finally, a shout out to Jennifer who actually chose my blog in the first place. Thank you!

    And queue Justin Timberlake, "This just can't be summer loooove!" It was the summer of 99. She was half Mexican, half Puerto Rican. Try to picture a younger version of Jennifer Lopez with softer facial features. She was that smokin' hot. A supermodel-like figure, legs for days and had no problem shaking what her mama gave her. You can technically count her as my first actual girlfriend. Sadly, the relationship (if you can call it that) lasted a couple of weeks; shortest relationship I ever had. Why? Well, she was the hottest thing in the neighborhood. A girl like that wasn't meant to settle, she was too hot to handle. The situation got infuriating at times, but we were young and stupid back then.
    As attractive as she was, her name also spelled trouble. You know the kind of woman I'm talking about. Gorgeous, flirtatious, loved the attention. Unfortunately, she became a reason for me to physically get into a fight with one of my closest friends. He was possibly the only guy that had a genuine affection towards her. Again, we were young and stupid. Fortunately, we're still close friends. Fortunately, she's got a couple of kids now and has matured - a huge contrast to the naive attractive youth in those days. What I remember most, apart from her stunning features, was the passionate way we hated each other after the "breakup". There was this unexplainable care we had for each other but on the outside, it was fierce. We would curse each other out whenever we had a chance. But I love that kind of fire in a woman, and Latinas do it better than any other.
