Día de las Madres es la fecha más importante en el calendario social, es un total festejo nacional ¿verdad? y para un momento tan especial, Ladurée abre las puertas de su maison en Polanco para recibir a las mamás consentidas del blog más rosa. Las hermanas Sandler, Lili Henaine, Daniela Magun y Camila Pietrini fueron las primeras en llegar a la celebración realizada por yours truly. A esta fabulosa tradición creada desde 2012 por It Girl han llegado nuevas amigas cómo Julie Hidalgo Chedraui, Miriam Flores, Yael Lanczyner y Jessica Maxey, acompañada por la hermosa Céline. Cada detalle fue realizado por Ladurée, celebrando un festejo cómo ninguno otro con champagne, ritual del té y un menú dulce y exquisito de...

An Uber, sorry, a Mexican Uber driver once famously quoted "there are only two Christmas dates for us and they aren't even Christmas, one yes is December 12th and the other one is Mother's Day". Whatever he meant for Christmas, I'm pretty sure it stands for high rates for both dates all thanks to Mexico City's iconic traffic. We Mexicans do worship our beloved Virgen de Guadalupe and we also celebrate our mothers like a National Holiday, right? The past weekend, a long weekend, I was invited to a double baby shower at one iconic Ruben Dario location. Seeing friends for this special occasion, really reminded me how fast life goes on and how important is to highlight every milestone...

when attending the party of the year, it doesn't precisely takes a village but a whole city to get you to Fifth Avenue. now five years in a row, I was very lucky to have by my side not one but two fairy godmothers. At 3:00pm I scheduled a pre gala glow with the one and only Dr. Lara Devgan on Park Avenue, there I witnessed how fast a cab can go from 77th street to 61th street on a Friday when needed and also that a facial of 30 minutes can also be very effective when it's done by the best doctor on Park. By 4:00pm I was already at the 21st floor getting ready with my bestie Lauren...

Llegó la fecha en la que queremos expresar nuestro amor a la persona que ha nutrido nuestros sueños y alas. A la que nos ha visto crecer y que con el tiempo se ha vuelto nuestra mejor amiga. Mamá es la primer palabra que decimos pero cuyo significado también se encuentra en "te amo", "mil gracias por todo", "te admiro" y bueno creo que todo el amor en este mundo se resumen en esas cuatro letras. Para un amor para siempre, por supuesto que no hay mejor forma para expresarlo que en color rosa ¿verdad? Y si de rosé hablamos, sólo Chopard sabe cómo consentir a mamá. Tres anillos en oro y el reloj Happy Sport de Chopard son los...

Someone once gave me the coldest shower of all. I wouldn’t say older, but 10 years wiser than me, she stopped me and told me “listen Gabriel, all these socialites couldn’t care less about you or your wesbite, they are all accepting a feature on It Girl mainly because they want to be photographed by Óscar”. It was a hard pill to swallow but old me Blair Waldorf took it and accepted it. Perhaps that was already the downfall of It Girl as a website 'cause her tongue and words did hurt in a misconfused way as I never knew if they came from a friend or a frenemy. I started this article by quoting old me Blair Waldorf 'cause...

si los diamantes son los mejores amigos de toda It Girl, entonces para este Mother's Day, todas las It Girls que también son mamás ...

When I was a little boy my mom raised me lowering my tone at the table, giving my seat to the elder, dressing up without showing off and I guess that’s why I’m a natural PR in Latin America. One golden rule when you are well mannered is to never discuss or talk about money at a social gathering, I guess that's why I'm very bad as a businessman but all I can say is that there's no social butterfly like me in town. All these do's and dont's from the socialite bible truly brings back when I decided to produce and style a story for my website, yes! the It Girl website, based on that movie inspired by the...

The Save Venice Ball celebrates everything we love about New York: fashion, glamour and yes, a little bit of drama. I've been coming now five years in a row and also yes! just like Chanel, five is definitely my lucky number. Hosted at The Plaza, the scene totally brings back that legendary moment originally imagined by one iconic Truman Capote. Babe Paley, CZ Guest, Lee Radziwill and Slim Keith, without knowing or maybe yes! the OGs back then established NYC as one of fashion's true capitals. They say swans became extinct in 1966 but this particulary night brings all of them out of their exotic ponds arriving in stunning outfits. And if there's someone that's truly committed to prerserving this couture dream...
