Monday, June 13th I had a training for my Summer job and I decided to re-wear the same outfit I wore for my friends poetry reading.
The training gave me the opportunity to meet with some co-wokers that I haven't seen since last Summer.
I wore:
Temperley London skirt, thrifted back on May.
Cardigan and shirt from Target (quite old).
I even made a bigger effort on my morning make up so I looked more awake than I really was!
My no name sandals and no tag purse; it sounds like a bad country song.
Necklaces from Steinmart about 7 years old.
Ah, the beauty of flash. I look so more refresh than I am in real life.
You see, the night before I stayed up watching movies
(Red and The Loosers) until around 1:30 a.m and got up by 6:00 a.m.
The restaurant walls are cover with some of the best wall art that I have seen in South Florida.
This was my first time at the restaurant and I felt at home among the art, the strangely named sauces,
the great service and the variety of food and people.
A closer look at the blue man. This chain of restaurant was created by a college students with some help
from his parents back in 1995 in Winter Park, Fl.
The pistachio colored ceiling had more cool and funky art.
I dedicated this photo to Elizabeth from the Account of the comtesse de ferveur;
whom is having a love affair with this color.
They have amazing hot and even hotter sauces with names like.Asbirin Extra Strength and Cafe Louisiana
Hotter'n Hell Sauce.
Here is one of their sauce displays that appears to defy gravity!
This was my friend Shanika's plate. She ordered the chicken flautas. She was also impressed with the food and the service.
This is my plate; I had the meat flautas (flutes) with no sour cream.
I have to post their manifesto because it's too cool, and I
can related to all of it.

Ofelia, you look gorgeous as always and " My no name sandals and no tag purse; it sounds like a bad country song" is too funny and true!

Fabienne, I'm glad that you are back to blogger land!
And yes, the manifesto is funny and makes you think.
Vivianne, thanks my dear! I love the manifesto is sacartic and truthful at the same time which is my favorite kind of humor.
Yoana, I can and usually do eat way to much Tex-Mex and Mexican-Caribbean spiced food.
Judy, thank you!
I love this outfit as well that's why I wore it twice in a month and the food was delicious.
Sarah, thank you so much!
I've been around some bad country music before and sometimes my mind goes back to those years.
The manifesto could be turned into a philosophy of life. I love the pink look--the longer length of the skirt suits you.
Terri, that is a great idea. Life's philosophy should be a bit warm, a bit dry and bit sarcastic!
Lovely skirt ! I love this sweet pink touch ! The wall painting is just WOW !

Selenite, I know you like the arts and specially modern art so I'm pleased that you like the wall art photos.
Mary Mur, thank you for reading and commenting on my blog. I'll be answering your 3 questions in my next blog. Thanks Again!
Rachel Emma, thank you so much about my jewelry and about my photos. Specially thankful to you for taking the time to read and comment on my blog.
My favorite-"Predictable is too normal and normal is too predictable." What an interesting post Ofelia and you look gorgeous. I absolutely love the Temperly skirt and the argyle sweater with it. It gives the outfit an "unpredictable" look!! The soft hues compliment your skin tone beautifully!! The jalapeños on the flutes are making my mouth water. The art reminds me of the comic books I used to read as a child, colorful and bold!! You have some great restaurants in your area, I need to come visit :))
Hi my dear-what a lovely vibrant and summery outfit, I really love your skirt!! The meal looks so delicious and the restaurant looks totally amazing. Hope you're having a good week too xxx
Ambuji, if are coming to the Ft. Lauderdale, South Florida area we would hit the town everyday and by the time your back to Los Angeles you will want to come back right away!
Yes, the wall and ceiling art are very catoon-like.
Sharon, thank you! I'm having a great week and and a very good Summer.
Te adoro en rosa y dorado y estoy al 200% con el manifiesto mexicano de ese lugar:there is no problem a burrito cannot solve , jajajjajaja.
Mil besos, corazón

Sacramento, gracias mi amor. Si es muy cierto las cosas que dice el manifiesto. Es como ver las cosas de manera comica pero con su toque de realismo.
Love the manifesto! And I love the pink outfit with the colorful beads! And the splash of gold is just brilliant! Love ya!
Paula, thanks! The manifiesto is funny and I wanted to re-wear this outfit because I adore Temperley London designs and I couldn't believed that I got this skirt for such small amount of money.
That manifesto is just brilliant especialy the bit about not staring at the mural too hard or you may get sucked in.
Love the combination of pink and gold, so very Indian and so pretty on you. Loving the no name sandals and purse.xxx
I love your jewellery! Love th e painted blue man and the manifesto! (and honestly I blame you for making me hungry again)

Vix, you're Back!
Brilliant is the perfect word to describe the manifesto.
Lyosha, thanks my dear and I'm so sorry about making you hungry. A thing about us Latinos; we always have to have food and music around every occassion.
Michelle, thank you so much.
thank you very much for your visit and always lovely comments.

Ofelia, this shade of pink is so beautiful with your complexion! I am quite the lover of pink so when I saw your skirt is was love at first sight! Summer is the perfect time to wear floral prints so this item is just great for this hot season. Also, I saw your photo of meat flautas and just sighed. I haven't had good Mexican food since like forever! I actually read the manifesto and thought of the last bullet point. Why? I hoped that if I stared hard enough at your dish, I would get sucked in! hee hee!
Yoana, thank you and its always a pleasure to comment on your blog.
Bella, I also love pink and any Mexican food and the combination of the two is fantastic!
