Growing up in Mexico, the Christmas and New Year’s Eve period has always been an extremely special time for me. I come from a very big family and all my memories growing up involve a full house at my grandparents place, too much food, Christmas carols, a lot of laughter and a certain feeling in the air.
Although I live in Amsterdam now, I always try to get back to Mexico this time of year, but before I do, it’s also important for me to take some time in Amsterdam to celebrate the festive season with some friends before heading home.

2016 has not been a great year for me and some of my close friends. It has had high and very sad lows, but I try to tell myself that celebrating at this time of year isn’t only about the best of times. It’s also about looking forward and hoping for the best in 2017, where we get another shot to new possibilities, memories and adventures.

I’ve partnered with @moetchandon again to share my #moetmoment and I decided this time I’d share a special moment in my apartment, before and after a few friends joined for one last time in 2016. It was cozy and intimate, with a lot of good vibes and hopes for the year to come and trying to put closure to this interesting but difficult year.

I really wish you all an amazing Christmas and New Year! You’ve been a massive part of my life for 9 years now, and I can’t wait to share some exciting announcements for year 10! Please stay tuned!!!

Thank you #moetchandon for helping me throw this special celebration.

The post VICTORIA’S SECRET SHOW appeared first on Stylescrapbook.

In a blink of an eye, I went from enjoying the endless summer weather in LA last week, to be on the first train to Paris for the Victoria Secret show tomorrow, YES, I am going to the Victoria Secret show for the first time ever and I am not sure wether I am extremely excited, or extremely intimidated to be in the same room as the VS angels :P. Just Kidding, I am obviously super excited and of course will be sharing the entire experience with you, so make sure you go follow me on Instagram and Snapchat! ;)

The post WILD WEST appeared first on Stylescrapbook.

With all the traveling I have done lately, it completely skipped my mind that my baby (StyleScrapbook) was turning 9 years old today. I was so busy and caught up with work that I completely forgot SS’s anniversary was coming soon, lucky for me, my amazing intern and friends didn’t forget and surprised me with a small party yesterday evening at the office. Showed up with cake, Mexican food and Mezcal cocktails.

I can hardly believe its been 9 years since I started the blog, almost a decade, A DECADE! This project of mine has given me so much, has changed my life completely and even after 9 years, I feel like this is just the beginning of what’s to come. I feel more creative, energised and motivated than ever, maybe because I’ve grown up and learnt so much throughout the past few years, maybe now is when I really know what I want, or maybe I just want to keep a positive attitude towards the future, whatever it may bring.
I can’t help but to feel incredibly blessed and lucky to have gotten this far, even when it has taken a lot of sacrifices and hard work to get here. I can’t help but to feel excited about the future and all the projects we have been working on and are finally taking shape but most of all, I cant help but to feel beyond grateful that even after all these years, you guys are still supporting me on every step of the way.

THANK YOU!!! From the bottom of my heart.
