heads up

Hello peoplez! It's been pretty hectic for me lately, my busy schedule is to blame for my inconsistent blog posting. Not like me to be inconsistent. One of my besties/hermanita is back in California so I have been kind of living life with her, and her 21st was yesterday so its been festivities non-stop. 

And I have other news! In three weeks I am going to South America for a little over a month. Im going to Bolivia and Argentina to visit my huge family and explore ma homeland! So this means MAVERICK DIVA will be MIA for the amount of time Im gone. I wish I could update my adventures to you guys but I decided Im gonna leave my laptop behind cause Im going to be backpacking most of the time. 

This trip has actually awaken the hibernating shopper in me to buy necessary and unnecessary items. Ive snatched some amazing things. It's going to be winter in Bolivia and Argentina so I gotta layer up but those cold weather conditions didnt stop me from buying this J.crew floppy hat yesterday. This is a lil sneak peek for my next outfit post. My most recent purchases will be revealed in full lata. 

XOXO MAVERICK DIVA

i'll be at the edge of the world Part 1

It is official, I found out today that I'll be going back to Bolivia and Argentina this summer! I am overflowing with happiness right now! its been about 5 years since I've gone to Bolivia and 2 years since I've visited Argentina. Due to my crazed self at the moment I have decided to dedicate two seperate posts about my yearning to travel back to my long lost loves. Not only do I miss these two places that used to be my home but i cant wait to re-witness and re-experience these other cultures, its beauties, its traditions, its cuisine, and its beautiful people!! 

OKAY Lets begin: Argentina

I have family all over this country. some live in Buenos Aires, and a ton more live in a province called JuJuy. Two completely different atmospheres. Buenos Aires is the capital filled with city lights, fabulous people, and argentinean shops galore! and JuJuy is smaller, greener, more terrains and a lot more desert like. They are both beautiful places to visit.

But one thing I cant wait to do in Argentina this summer is visit Patagonia!!!! It will be my first time going...i know, I should have gone many years ago. Anyways, Patagonia comes from the word Patagon which was used by explorer Magellan to describe the native people his expedition thought to be Giants. in simple terms, its a place where giants once existed(I'm obviously still a kid cause I find these stories so amusing). It will be winter when I go so The Andes mountains in patagonia are gonna be just how i want them to look. and not to mention its the nativeland of the Argentinean Gauchos! 

I'm just a little bit obsessed with them cause they are the ideal man for me. An Argentinean cowboy?? what more can a girl ask for. Lets just say I may be fantasizing at the moment, or recreating that "como agua para chocolate" scene where the sister eats the rose petal dish with duck and goes on a mad erotic rampage outside, take a shower...NAKED and runs off with a cowboy on a horse. so impulsive. so carazy. so hot! dont expect me to come back from Argentina this time cause thats gonna probably happen to me. just sayin. soo where was I? right, Patagonia. This is basically what Argentina has in store for me and im dying of excitement:

My Bolivia Post will be up tomorrow

XOXO MAVERICK DIVA
