Festivities a La Americana

December 23, 2013


Red white and blue outfit

I dedicate my look today to North America, specially North Carolina. I have spent my last 18 Christmas' in this area and they have been wonderful for me and my family. I still celebrate Christmas at home the Honduran way (eating tamales, dancing merengue music, cooking pork..etc) but, I do respect how Americans celebrate their Christmas in a more quiet and peaceful way.
So, my look today is a mixed pattern bonanza of red, white and blue, which are the colors of United States flag and also can be Christmas colors as well. I added to this look a touch of metallic with my shoes to bring it to a festive mood.

Yo dedico mi look de hoy a Norte America, especialmente a Carolina del Norte. Yo he pasado 18 Navidades en esta área, las cuales han sido maravillosas para mi y para mi familia. Yo siempre celebro en mi casa las Navidades al estilo Hondureño (comiendo tamales, bailando merengue y cocinando lechón) pero, yo respeto como los Americanos celebran las Navidades de una forma mas callada y pacífica.
Por eso, mi look de hoy consiste en una mezcla de estampados de colores azul, rojo y blanco los cuales son los colores de la bandera de Estados Unidos y también colores que pueden representar la Navidad. Le agregué un toque metálico con mis zapatos para darle el aire festivo de la temporada.
