For those who don’t know, I try to be very involved in the Latina blogging community. I’m very proud of my heritage. I also run a directory of Latina bloggers at www.BlogsbyLatinas.com and a Facebook group for Latina bloggers who live in the Los Angeles area. Last night, along with Ford (thank you!), we hosted a networking event at Beso in Hollywood. If you haven’t been there, you really need to go! It’s so beautiful!! Sorry about the quality of the images, but I didn’t want to use the bright flash.

I decided to wear this halter linen dress that my mom bought for me a looooong time ago from Forever 21. My shoes are my oldie but goodies Nine West and the jewelry is Forever 21, Nordstrom, and Lane Bryant.

I also wanted to send a THANK YOU to the following beauty brands who provided product for the mini-beauty bags I handed out. They were a huge hit!
