Oops! Upside The Head.

This week I had the pleasure of attending UVU's Celebracion Latino Americana, La Puerta al Exito. This presentation was a scholarship awards ceremony for Latin American students.



Marta was one of the entertainers of the evening. She is part of the dance troop Raizez De Mi Tierra. This particular costume is for an A Capella dance that originates from Veracruz, Mexico. In the performance there is no accompanying music, the only sound heard is the dancers heels on the floor. Marta made her costume by herself. Each member makes their own costumes for the performances.



As far as dance costumes go it is very subtle, color-wise, but lovely. Its simplicity is persuasive and very different from everyday fashion. An element of her outfit that can be used outside the dance floor is the flowers in her hair. It's spring, so lets give it a real welcome and wear flowers in our hair! All her items can be down played for a more daily use style. Remember that concept.

Jugastes Con mi Vida, mi Carinio

Last week SLCpomp traveled to Orem to view this years Banff Film Festival, which shows all sorts of tough outdoors films. My initial goal was to catch some daily use of outdoor wear. Instead I found a different treat:

Hilary and Pak are both students at UVSC (Is it UVU yet?)



Hilary is an Orem native, and a fine arts major. She says she doesn't think too much about clothes or style — it just happens. In this photo, she is wearing a flannel gray shirt pair with a read pencil skirt. Hilary raises her score by wearing floral print tights and brown flats. Her hair is in a graceful up-do. She has a very classic soft look that are brought to light by her fair skin, hair and tights. But the outfit packs a double whammy with the typically tough plaid. Soft and Hard.

Pak is originally from Japan and is unsure of what he wants to study. He is studying physical ducation, I think he would be the COOLEST gym teacher ever! His outfit is very dark; the brightest point is the white on his hoodie. His shoes ae practical but are cute in brown suede. For the spring, Pak is looking for t-shirts that have graphics of flowers on them.



Always,
