The ULTIMATE Brown Girl...


About a week ago I received my November issue of Latina Magazine and let me tell you it was a fantastic issue! It consisted articles that were about Asian Latinos all the way to what Latino inspired dishes you should be cooking for Thanksgiving. However, the article about Salma Hayak was the winning piece. She talked about mother hood, her life as a Latina actress as well as her new and upcoming cosmetic line, Nuance. It is a must read for not only us brown girls but anyone who aspires to be anyone. It does not matter where you come from or how you grew up you are capable of anything.

Needless to say, Salma Hayak is one of today’s most beautiful Latinas ever (aren't we all). However the photo shoot that accompanied the interview helped support that statement even more. This is just a sneek peak of what you can expect…

She is photographed wearing dresses by Alexander McQueen, Zac Posen, Roland Mouret and Stella McCartney. I must say she looks absolutely stunning in each and every dress. I guess this means its time for all of us to go out and buy her Nuance creams and a McQueen dress so we can slowly become more like her ;)

Gringo=White

Its Friday night and what do I find myself doing, typing random things in the google search engine and guess what I find...a random little article that talks about 100 stars that you never knew were latino. It featured actors from my childhood show 7th Heaven to Pocahontas. Trust me when I say you will be shocked when you see who is on the list. You can check it out here.


On the subject of randomness, here are just some other fun things I found during my late night search.
