  • Work Outfit Idea: Bottega Veneta Pre Fall 2015

    Bottega Veneta Pre Fall Collection 2015
    Bottega Veneta Pre Fall Collection 2015

    Por Lourdes N Martínez, Editor y Raquel M. Ortiz

    Se acabaron las vacaciones para muchos. El resto no paró de trabajar en verano. Pero los periodos de trabajo y estudio cambian y tendemos a cambiar nuestra mentalidad para prepararnos a la hola de trabajo, el tráfico en la carretera y nuestra imagen. Como siempre queremos vernos profesionales y a la moda, pero deseamos lucir como que vamos a estar de piscina todo el día, tomamos como inspiración este look de Bottega Veneta de su colección Pre Otoño 2015. El toque de color y personalidad lo decidimos dar con el vestido. Mantuvimos la chaqueta y los accesorios en colores sólidos para llevar el vestido como el centro de atención del outfit. Utilizamos zapatos de tacón bajo para prolongar la comodidad y un bolso pequeño para sentir que todavía estamos de vacaciones.

    ****

    For many, vacations are over. The rest did not stop working in summer. But the work and study periods change and we tend to change our mindset to prepare for work, traffic on the road and our image. As always, we want to look professional and fashionable and we don’t want to look like we’ll be in pool all day, that is why we took as inspiration this look from Bottega Veneta’s Pre Fall 2015 collection. We decided to give the touch of color and personality with the dress. We kept the jacket and accessories in  a solid color to have the dress as the focus of the outfit. We use low-heeled shoes to extend comfort and a small bag to keep the feeling that we are still on vacation.

    Straight Hair By: Raquel M. Ortiz

    Short hair can sometimes be a problem when trying any hairstyles. We will be giving you four easy hairstyles that you try.

    Messy Ponytail

    Throw back a ponytail, then pull a few pieces of hair out to make the perfect messy ponytail.

    Half topknot

    top knot

    The topknot trend is almost impossible to achieve in short hair, so instead, try it half way. Take the top half of your hair and wrap it into a ponytail, then twist the tail to create a knot. Secure it with an elastic band.

    Short Hair Twist

    Simple-Twist-Hairstyle-for-Short-Hair1

    The short twist is perfect for curly hair. Gather two pieces of hair, one from each side of your head and twist it towards the back, then secure with bobby pin. Combine the two twist at the center with bobby pins.

    Short hair and bangs

    short with bangs

    Damp hair with sea salt spray. Once it’s dry, use a curling iron to create waves. Blow dry bangs straight for a difference in texture.

These mistake can affect your skin if you don’t treat it the right way.

    To have a better skin complexion follow this simple tips:

    1. Apply a moisturizer with SPF daily to prevent your skin of the risk of catching some UV rays and ultimately damage them.

  • ¿Conoces la diferencia entre el bloqueador solar y el protector solar?

    377482

    Por: Raquel M. Ortiz

    Lo utilizamos siempre que nos exponemos al sol, pero ¿sabemos diferenciar entre el protector solar y el bloqueador solar? ¿Verdaderamente conocemos cómo funciona? En este artículo te explicaremos qué los compone, sus beneficios, cómo trabajan y todo lo que tenemos que conocer a la hora de escoger el protector solar y el bloqueador solar para nuestra piel.

    El protector solar está compuesto de óxido de zinc, hierro y titanio. Normalmente es conocido por sus siglas en inglés SPF. Los protectores brindan protección contra la radiación ultravioleta (UVB). Como dato importante a la hora de escoger un protector solar, debemos observar cuidadosamente el número que acompaña las siglas. Éste, te indicará el tiempo que puedes estar expuesto al sol sin necesidad de aplicarte nuevamente el producto.

    Otro dato que tenemos que tener presente es que el protector de un SPF 15 absorbe 92% de la radiación UVB y un protector de SPF 30 absorbe más de 97% de la radiación UVB. Para el mejor uso de estos se tienen que aplicar 30 minutos antes de exponerte al sol. También es recomendable que este se utilice todos los días para proteger la piel. El protector solar también nos beneficia porque además evita el envejecimiento, manchas y pecas en la piel, la hidrata y previene la aparición de cáncer.

    Por otro lado, tenemos el bloqueador solar. Éste está compuesto de óxido de zinc o de titanio, componentes que facilitan el poder reflejar los rayos e impedir que alcancen tu piel. Este bloqueador, normalmente conocido por sus siglas en inglés FSP, también nos indica el tiempo en que podemos estar expuestos al sol sin necesitar una nueva aplicación del producto. Así, con un 50+ te protegerá de 25-30 minutos; el de 30+ te protegerá por 20 minutos y para finalizar el de 15+ te protege por sólo 10 minutos.

    Parte de su ayuda es que evita que el sol no afecte nuestra piel de forma negativa al bloquear sus efectos creando una capa protectora. No importa en qué temporada estés, el bloqueador solar debe convertirse en un producto de uso diario, ya que nos exponemos constantemente a las radiaciones solares. Algunos de sus beneficios son el prevenir el envejecimiento prematuro y la enfermedad de cáncer en la piel.

    En conclusión, lo más saludable para nuestra piel en la temporada de verano es el protector solar, debido a que éste nos protege por un periodo de tiempo más largo que el bloqueador solar.

    Los estampados florales no pueden faltar en la temporada de primavera/verano. Esta vez, para hacerlo divertido y diferente, los diseñadores tomaron la vía no tradicional y crearon estampados grandes, coloridos y los colocaron sobre textiles inusuales como el cuero. Lleva la tendencia en tus accesorios o en alguna pieza de ropa. Para que tu look se vea más imponente, escoge conjuntos de falda o pantalón y chaqueta que tengan el mismo estampado. Pero siempre se recomienda que utilices una sola pieza con el estampado y mantengas las demás neutrales y clásicos.

    Floral prints are a must in the spring/summer season. This time, to make it fun and different, designers took the non traditional route and created big and colorful patterns, placed in unusual textiles like leather. Wear this trend in your accessories or in just one piece of clothing. To make your look more imposing, choose pants or skirt suits with the same pattern. But it is always recommended to use only one piece with print and keep the other pieces neutral and classic.
