Peace, love and Hemp, part ✌

So like I said in one of my previous posts titled "The Way It Should Be," hemp is an excellent material use for clothing.  It is the versatile, eco-friendly, durable and historically appreciated!  Some of my favorite pieces I have in my closet are made from hemp and yes they are hippie looking but I gotta say, extremely cute! And you might think that only hippie looking people use it but au contraire. So for all of you that don't go for the boho look, don't you worry, top designers have actually used hemp in their collections. Stella McCartney, Armani and Calvin Klein, they've all incorporated hemp textiles into their lines.  And Urban Outfitters, American Rag and Fred Segal are some of the many fashion-forward stores that are selling clothing made of hemp. Before you think that these clothings would only be worn by granola-eating, tree-hugging, "dreadlock-and-doobie" crowd, you are SO wrong! Many brands are taking advantage of this textile and using it to make garments from outerwear to chic dresses. 
While doing some research I came across this fabulous brand of purses called The Hemptress made of course, hemp.  Check it out!

Presenting Gabriela SAGA..

I am absolutely in awe with every creation from this talented designer from my beloved Tijuana.  Her name is Gabriela Acevedo, she is the artist behind the amazing collection of Gabriela SAGA and she has been working hard creating pieces of art that will make every woman elegant and beautiful.  I want to share some of her new collection and some of her last season.  I am going to one of her fashion shows this weekend and I cannot wait to see what's new! Also I am very excited for the two dresses she is making me for my friends' weddings.
