I am currently working on my "Adelita Style" project. After owning and running a boutique for 5 years, I decided to take a different approach and start my own brand. This is beginning with a blog for Fashionistas! I have a varied and well-experienced background in many fields, all aesthetic in nature. "Adelita Style" is a wonderful outlet for expressing my every skill and every passion. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do!
