Any voyage experience should inspire curiosity, what good are they if not to explore and discover the unknown. On a recent voyage to my inner self I explored and discovered several things only a cleansing and spiritual journey can give you. This journey was truly enlightening finding my animal spirit//true self. But instead of finding wisdom and light I found hate, darkness and self loathing. (What journey isn't complete with a little self-loathe-right?) I quickly realized and came to terms that's those so called demons  were just "problems" from a mere mortal point of view. I changed my view and was inspired to view my problems from the perspectives of the ultimate celebrities: God, Gods and Goddess. My journey had lead me to discover the divine in me.
            What truly makes a person divine is an ethereal glow to their aura  isn't so much a physical characteristic, but in the  way they compose themselves with harmony with all mortals, animals and creatures of the universe. This sense of harmony is an interaction done with everyone and everything but most importantly within themselves.
My voyage today has me understanding the divine lives in me and inspires me in my decisions and actions of my everyday life. And although I fall from grace from time to time (Goddess' DO NOT eat at taco bell-but I do-tee hee!) that reality check of failure is part of the human experience.
 Maybe it's the mescaline that hasn't worn off, the warm summer breeze that has me feeling divine but here at Rose Bow we like for you to feel the love too. A few tips to feel like a Goddess: Positive attitude towards everyone and everything, getting an apartment in Mount Olympus and crowning yourself with a headpiece from Diosa Headpieces.

Be You. Be Divine. Be Diosa.

Pride

Maybe it's because i'm Colombian selective vision/hearing but it seems that this week, here in Los Angeles, i've noticed that there has been a plethora of Colombian pride festivals. The Pico Rivera Colombian Festival, Down Town Art Walk: Colombian Exhibits and not to mention a couple of Colombian artists that are set to play in L.A...And while i'm still debating about actually attending these events, there is one thing all these events have in common: Pride.
Pride can motivate you. Pride can initiate change, but at the same time pride can inhibit you...just ask the proud boys that wear Mexican Pointy boots in the pseudo-documentary above. These young men inspired by the tribal music have created a sub-culture that motivates members to create the most pointy boots to dance in. Sounds painful, tacky, horrible fun! Watch with an open mind guys and enjoy!!!

The Forest

I'm always on the look out for aesthetic stimulation. Whether it's a dress, a new art exhibit or even just a moment in time. Recently I've been going back to my roots and looking towards nature for inspiration. Going to the forest or any green environment let's me recharge my batteries that the city has drained. 

Another way the forest can inspire you is by watching Colombian-based duo THE FOREST and their live performance art. The visual candy that is this art-band incorporates their love for art and the surreal. "They wrapped their audience in a visual act that bathes them in lights, color and experimental music". So next time the 405 has you on the verge of going postal-CHILL-take a break, and leave towards nature.

Are you lost in the Forest?

Wake up! Wake up! It's the first of the month.

Today is the 1st of the month and while some are dreading today (rent is due!) today's 1st of the month is quite different. Today is May 1st, or as thousands of workers refer to as May Day/International Worker's Day. Today is an another opportunity for YOU to voice current labor issues that affect you daily. Today YOU can go into the streets of Los Angeles (or wherever you live) and march peacefully to voice your current frustrations not only towards change in labor unions but rights for migrant workers.

A sweater that would make Trotsky happy.

If just one day out of the year, we would leave our comfortable bubble of numbing capitalism and protest with our fellow comrades and peacefully "fight" and hold hands for something we ALL believe in, wouldn't this world be a better place?

What's worth fighting for you?

Tu amor me tiene loca.

Feliz-Feliz-Feliz dia de Amor y Amistad.//Happy Valentine's Day.

Tranquilita de noche y de día.

Even though the sun is beating us to the ground here in Southern Califas.(and no, I'm not complaining!) that doesn't mean one can't dress up with all the fun fashion has to offer in the Fall. Fall has always been my closet's favorite time of the year. It means dressing up with more layers of clothing and putting on all my favorite winter coats and boots...and even though in the past years I've shied away from tall heel boots this year I'm embracing the "inner Amazon woman" and rocking high heels like the baddest bitch on the block.

My favorite accessory this fall is the bold statement necklace, particularly this statement necklace by Tranquiltelas. This particular color really compliments well with the color palette Fall is known for: Khakis, Browns, Military green.

On a last note, if you're like me, you probably would like to run over the holiday music like that reindeer did to Grandma. This has to be at least once on your Fall/Holiday playlist. "Night by Night" by Chromeo.

 What trends are your favorite during Fall?

Happy 4th of July!

Have a fun, festive and safe holiday. Today we celebrate "independence" and everything American!  Happy Birthday U.S.A.! 

As much as I hate Bruce Springsteen, there's no better day than today to listen to this song!

Be safe guys :)

Ponte-Ponte-Ponte bomb!

Summer is here and I'm so excited. Finally I can let the sun kiss my skin and enjoy all the fashion summer has to offer. This is a quick little photo essay of things that I want this summer. Which include bikes, skull rings, Indian headbands, and a call for people to use more public transportation! I feel like bright colors are so passe this summer. Instead i'm trying to opt out for a more classic approach with color schemes. Putting color in small details of your outfit (like floral print docs or a glitter eye-liner) are some ideas to add some Summer flair to your outfit with out looking like a Pollock! 

The song I decided to put up is a cover of "Pump the Jam" by the always body groovin' Colombian band "Bomba Estereo".  I still haven't decided what this summer 's anthem is going to be but this is most deffo on this summer's playlist. Some of the pictures above are from random adventures i've taken in the past days and pictures I've picked from random websites. 

What's on your mind this summer?
