Fashion Report | Holiday Season

The Holiday Season is here, and one of the many things I like about it; is the Stores Windows Displays.

Although I'm not in NYC to look at all the amazing creations that the big fashion houses created this year, I still live in a very fashionable and stylish city: Dallas.

NorthPark Center is one of the many upscale malls in the city. With the number one in sales nationwide retails, Neiman Marcus and Dillard's.

Other stores as Barney's New York, Macy's and of course Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Versace, Burberry are here too.

In this venue, you will always find the perfect combination between music, art and food  . Christmas is the perfect time to visit, eat, shop  & have a lovely evening looking at the Windows Displays. These will take you to a modern Winterland, with beautiful white trees, disco balls, lighting stars & colorful gift wraps.

Don't believe me? Take a look.

Fashion Report/ H&M opens at NorthPark Center in Dallas


After waiting since the Preview Store was open back in January, the fast fashion Swedish clothing chain finally opened it's door for the Dallas-sites today at North Park Center.

I've been a fan of the brand for almost six years since I first ran into it back in Summer of 2006, while studying abroad in Canada. Having H&M in Texas, now that I live in Dallas: is like literally heaven, because there was not a store within 100 miles from here.



People camped out of the shopping center last night just to be the first ones in line. And who wouldn't have, right? With giveaways from $10-$500 for the first 500 in line, it was absolutely worth it. Thats why I woke up early and got there around 6:30 am, but the place was packed already. Anyways amde it to the 100's and got free souvenirs, snacks, drinks and a $10 gift card. Not bad right?



Also, the PR team was A-M-Azing. Staff going around the line along with the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders making people scream creating more exciment about the opening.

At last, it was time to shop and Oh my! It was pure fashion madness.


Don't believe me? Check it out for yourself.

The Bucket List/Summer Edition 2011


With summer around the corner, you better have your “beach body ready”, because, this season is all about looking obnoxiously hot in bright colors and  retro shapes.


SHORTS SHORTS: From sporty gym and tennis shorts, to casual chinos, resort shorts to macho cargo styles be prepared to show your legs walking down the street, since shorts, specially “shorts shorts” are a big hit this summer.
Go fresh and floral with D&G, forget about the suit and head to the office in casual chic with Bill Tornade and rock the night club in vintage glamour with John Galliano. No matter what your pick is, be sure to have at least one in your wardrobe.


AVIATORS: You can’t go wrong with the iconic look of the Aviator sunglasses.
Go for the simple, contemporary black version instead of the tortoiseshell and bright colors.
For the luxury lovers Marc Jacobs is the best pick, for the gym bunnies Persol is definitely your choice and for the nightcrawlers Mosley Tribes is the one for you. Just make sure not to wear them while tanning!!!


CROPPED TOP: Designers are always pushing the boundaries of men’s fashion with new shapes and cuts, but this summer is all about the “cropped top”. For those brave and HOT enough to wear it, Calvin Klein easy casual is one of your options. If you are the grunge-alternative type Christopher Shannon will fit you perfectly.
Finally choose the colorful prêt-à-porter by Frankie Morello if you have a bold and fun personality.


BEACH TOTE: Amazing summer clothes need to be carry with style. Of course, “the beach tote” is my best-loved season accessory.
Varsity inspired leather bags in bright colors by Prada  if you’re young  with a free spirit. The bold, blue-checkered tote by Louis Vuitton, if you want to keep it classy but with a flashy twist.  For  the multifaceted, different  sizes and shapes by Zara. In this case size does matter, so the bigger the better.


SWIMWEAR: Swimwear is the ultimate summer must have. There’s no way that you can go to the beach or to a pool without showing some skin in  a great swimsuit.
Tropical and optic patterns by Rufskin are  ideal for the sexy jocks. If you’re not afraid to show too much, the intrepid cuts by N2N Bodywear are  made for you. And take it to the next level with  trendy fashion styles by BUTCH. Remember, the hotter you look, better chances you will be getting laid tonight.

Gay Boy Problems/ This isn't the 60's


This isn't the 60's so stop wearing your grandpa's underwear.

I've been working out at my gym for almost a year and there's something that always get on my nerves: watching hot guys wearing tighty whities or loose boxers.

I understand I'm living in East Texas, which is nothing close to be a cosmopolitan or trendy area, although that's not an excuse to still living in a conservative-boring past.

I'm not asking you to wear the erotic collection by N2N Bodywear or the revealing designs by Obviously for men, but at least you could wear some basic colorful hip briefs by Calvin Klein Underwear, or the always fun and fashionable Australian styles by aussieBum.

However, if  you really want to push it a little bit more, what about some jockstraps by Timoteo Underwear or  the provocative ones by NYC based Nasty Pig?




With leading fashion houses such as Emporio Armani and Dolce & Gabbana creating whole collections for every season, underwear is not something you want to hide anymore,  instead,  has become an element of your outfit and part of your personality.

So next time you're getting out of shower, think twice what you are going to wear "underneath" your clothes. Remember, sex sells and trust me, tighty whities are not going to get you laid tonight.

Gay Boy Problems/ This isn't a Lady Gaga show


This isn't a Lady Gaga show guys, so hide your claws.  

The warm weather comes with shorts, tank tops and drinks by the pool. But also comes with a disgusting habit of some gay and straight man: Claws.

No matter if you're straight, gay or whatever in between, there's nothing less appealing that getting undress right before your about to fuck the cutest guy at the club and realize he has long nails.

Seriously pals, having your nails cut is not a difficult task.

You can do it after you get out of the shower when the nails are soft and clean or if you're the lazy rich type just go to the nearest Nail Spa.

This summer there's no excuse for you to not have the perfect look from head to toe.
