Fashion Attraction: A Cinematic LookBook Featuring The Dollhouse Factory

Hey Beauties!!!!

You know creativity is my favorite aspect of the entire YouTube process, and you guys enjoyed my previous cinematic lookbook so much, that I just had to do another one!

I'm very happy and excited today to present to you guys my current baby, the project I've been working on for the last few weeks "Fashion Attraction: A Cinematic LookBook". The dresses in this video were provided by The Dollhouse Factory. A huge thank you to them for making this video possible! You can check them out here: http://www.thedollhousefactorymiami.com/

Below you will find a full review of the dresses, lots of photos, and the cinematic video. I'll also provide the specific links for the dresses shown in the video throughout this blog post. Finally, an enormous thank you to my team who is ever patient with me when I enter crazy-work-monster-mode. My gorgeous male model Junior, who is always available to film with me on a moments notice: follow him on instagram @marvelkid87 Also, my amazing director Chris Santos who has the uncanny power of taking my random, confusing explanations and turning it into the exact vision that I had for the video. He also is the muscle behind the editing of these cinematic videos (wish he could edit all my videos!! lol I hate editing!). Follow him on instagram @triplestarpro +TripleStarProductions

Moving on to the good stuff: for all my fashion lovers, I must say I was skeptical at first. I have found that with club/party clothing it can be a great hit or miss. Thankfully this website was a huge hit! The clothing is well made and the fabric is amazing. Many times these skin tight, sexier styles also tend to be on the thinner side - thus leaving you basically naked and see through, thank God for dark lighting in the clubs. The Dollhouse Factory items were all nice THICK fabric and not at all see-through. That was my greatest concern prior to receiving the dresses and I was very happily satisfied when they arrived.

My next concern was structure and seams. I have ordered clothing in the past and received crooked seams or loose strings. All of the dresses were well sown and tightly stitched. The seams were straight and in place. One of the dresses, however, has an altercation with the shoulder strap. It was accidentally turned and stitched that way so that it did not lie flat. A huge concern of mine when shopping online is how companies will deal with problems, should any arise. I was very satisfied with the response from the company. I emailed them about the issue and sent over a photo taken on my iphone to show that the strap was twisted and I had a replacement dress in less than 48 hours at no extra cost or delivery fees. I actually still have the original dress and am considering bringing it to a tailor to be fixed and gifting it to one of my friends for her birthday, (but shhh don't tell her).

The fit of the dresses is also amazing. I ordered a size small in all three styles and they all hug my curves in the right way. Overall I could not be happier with the styles, quality, and make of the items. The customer service was also amazing and prompt - big for me because I have very little patience (I'm working on it....) I'm happy to say I've found a new site to add to my go-to party wear list. Their styles are very sexy but maintain an air of class and the colors and prints will definitely make you the center of attraction at any event you attend, in the best way. Show Stoppers anyone?

The following are the direct links of the dresses shown in the video:

I'm leaving you dolls with the video and a bunch of photos. Let me know what you think of everything, I hope you enjoy it! I had so much fun working on this project for you.

Sexy Curls for a NYC Fashion Show

Happy Monday Beautiful!!!!

I hope everyone started off an amazing new weeks today!!! Today was actually my son's FIRST day of Pre-K!!!!!! I wanted to have this blog and today's video up earlier but I spent a good hour of my "work time" crying after I dropped him off at school... Mommy problems, sigh. Happily, he had a great day and was actually upset when I went to pick him up and bring him back home!! If only he can still feel that way when he reaches High School I'll be one happy mom.

Today I uploaded a new video on a hair tutorial. Yes, a HAIR tutorial!!! I know I do them so rarely but I recently received some new hair tools and they have opened up my eyes to a whole new world of possible styles. I used the 19mm curling wand from the NuMe Titan 3 set. I'll have an in depth blog review on the set later on this week. For now you can check out my tutorial video to hear a mini review on the product as well as a complete step by step of how I achieved the look below. Also, feel free to use the coupon code rocio3 (all lowercase) on any curling wand or flat iron if you want to try out these products and save a bunch of money. <3



The special occasion that called for this new fab hair style was a fashion show that I attended last week as part of NYC Fashion Week. I snagged some VIP tickets to the Uptown Fashion Show in United Palace. Unfortunately, I have to say, the goodie bags SUCKED. There was an umbrella, a bunch of pens, and a couple of shampoo samples - the type you get for free with every online Sephora order. I was disappointed to say the least. After being spoiled by Generation Beauty and Beauty Con's goodie bags I was expecting something a bit more amazing.




The show was cool. There were some collections that just didn't do it for me but for the most part I adored a lot of what came down that runway. Also, I had the added surprise of seeing a familiar face on the runway. One of the girls who I actually watch and love on YouTube, Nathalie, was modeling in the show! I had a bit of a fan girl moment when I saw her, and I have to say she looked beautiful and Worked It! You can see her below in the white gown, as well as a pic of me and my bestie who accompanied me to the show. Be sure to check out Nathalie's channel and sub, I know you guys will love her too! http://www.youtube.com/user/nathaliebellax3


Please bear with me on the pictures, the girls were flying down the runway and my iPhone was just not snapping quickly enough. I do have a vlog video where you can get a better look at all of the complete collections that were shown that night.


 Overall the collections showcased a lot of classic timeless looks that had an extra sexy factor. I loved! It was a great way to take timeless silhouettes and add a bit more sex appeal. There were also a lot of interesting shapes. Puffs, draping, feathers, peek-a-boo panels, and attention grabbing fabrics were all seen at this show. My only question: Where can I buy these pieces?!
