Back to basics...

Even though I'm studying Communication Sciences in my University (and previously did two years of arts), I've always had something for fashion and I have always know I want to do something fashion-related for a living, from editorial, to costume design in filmmaking. 

And as time passes by my interest on fashion has only grown bigger and bigger, and even when I decided to graduate in communication, last september I started over in this new University I also decided to take fashion design classes on Saturdays in another school.

I'm learning a lot of things: fashion illustration (I'm learning from zero), confection and about all the different fabrics and how to use them. On January I'll start new classes on stylism, 

fashion photography and some more.  

Sure, it's quite the extra load of work but it's completely worth it. 

I can't wait to be able to create my own garments!

After our first week back in school, my friends and I went away for the weekend to a small town about two hours away from the city. We stayed in an eco cabin in the woods. We rode horses, ate delicious mexican food, drank and danced 'til we dropped. 

This is what I wore yesterday to go down to the village and to go sightseeing. 

Do you like my new rose-colored glasses? My friends say I look like John Lennon and Yoko Ono's long lost daughter but I love them. I see everything in a pink-ish hue. 

Ah, la vie en rose.

Back To School

After a not-so-sabatical year off school, I'm officially back in classes. 

New school, new city, new career, new flat...even new me perhaps? Just kidding. 

I've been extremely busy with my new classes, the whole moving thing, unpacking, wa wa wa... but there's a lot to come...

Coming up soon: Summer Illustrations, How to wear black and orange without looking like a halloween fanatic, Le Sketcherie's guide to Paris, and Le Sketcherie's take on Parisian women.  And more about my experiences in this new city. 

Stay tuned!
