California Girl Gone East, Fashion & Social Life's New Chapter

In honor of España winning the Euro Cup today, Hola Fashionistas!

I hope all is well with everyone and that you all are adjusting well to the summer, especially if you don't have power due to the recent storm that left a lot of the DMV without power. For those without power and AC you are in my prayers.

As you can see the former "Fashion & A Social Life" has been transformed into California Girl Gone East. My reasoning behind this transformation was to make this fashion blog more personal for myself, and allow others to get to know me better through my fashion choices and my true life experiences. I am indeed a california girl that moved east. I actually have been living on the east coast for a while now, and have grown to love it.

bye, bye

This love definitely translates into my fashion sense, because I like to mix the laid back looks of California with class of the East Coast. When I was doing my internship last summer at Sephora in downtown San Francisco, my family always commented on how "east coast" I dressed, which made me smile.

Not to worry though, I will still keep you updated on how to keep your social life perfectly in style and on trend. You will forever get day to day fashion here.

Love, J'Adore, Amor,

MI VIDA- who I am

Hey there my fellow fashionistas!

My name is is Gabriela Mercedes-- Gabby for short.

I am from San Mateo, California and just wrapped up my freshman year at the University of Maryland, College Park.

I am a Communications major and a Spanish minor.

This blog is mainly aimed at college aged people who are in love with fashion like me, or need help with it. Either way I am here for you.Here for when you need fashion advice for that hot date, that steamy trip to Cabo you have been dying to go on, or just plain going out doing day to day things! I know when I feel I look good, it really boosts my confidence which really ups my social life. I love going out and showing off a new outfit : ) My social life is what really started my love for fashion and vice versa. Without a good fashion sense, your social life is...well...could be better.

Posts will mainly range from tips, to scenarios that go on in daily life, and will spotlight people who have done marvelous things in fashion world!

Stay Classy!
