S-P-I-K-E-S  love 'em or hate them?

This season it's all about spikes everywhere, on shoes, shirts, pants, necklaces. This summer spikes are "in" and no one can say the opposite, do you absoulutely love or hate it? I really do like this trend, but I'm afraid it's gonna fade away since they're all over the place. 

We've seen those famous Jeffrey Campbell spiked boots, which are totally stylish and they have become a must have in a girls closet. Those I LOVE! How about those high waisted shorts with spikes on their pockets? Love. 

However, I'm not so sure about spiked shirts, but I like the ones that have spikes on the collar, it gives the shirt just a little wild touch, but keeps it simple and chic. Spiked leather jackets are a really big trend also, but I do have to accept that I do not like them, leather jackets are a statement themselves, I think it's a bit too much when you add spikes to them.

Summer swimwear

Summer is finally HERE!


Going to the beach? I've got lots of bathing suits you're gonna love. This summer is all about edgy swimwear... ruffles, cuts, trikinis, shapes, lace, and lots of color! But don't forget the classic black bikini, it´s still very "in" because of the classy touch it gives every single woman out there. 


One of my favorite brands is Maaji Swimwear, it's super stylish and though they're a little expensive, they even have some reversible bikinis so you can mix and match, play with it! 


I'm obsessed with trikinis, I got one last month, it's a Manoa BaƱadores (a brand from Caracas, Venezuela) and it's AMAZING! It matches lots of colors with many fabrics, it's totally fab. Trikinis have become one of my favorite kind of swimsuits, they're so stylish and anyone can pull them off.


How about those tiny bikinis that turn the heat waaay up? Love them! I really like bright colors and they look smokin' with that sun kissed skin. I'll give you a little secret, mix and match. It doesn't matter if the top and bottom aren't the same color or fabric, that's exactly the idea of mixing them up. You can go get that leopard print bottom and mix it with a white top! And you'll look stunning! 


Remember the BEST accessory you can wear while having some fun in the sun is your sunscreen! Take care of your skin, you'll see the results in a couple of years ladies!
