For my latest launch, the Spanglish Collection, the color story that I chose is very Miami. Those pastel Miami Vice colors are a lot of pinks and blues, but I wanted to put a twist on that and I decided to go with purples and oranges. I wanted to celebrate both of my cultures: my American culture and my Latinx culture, and how they complement each other so well, but they're completely different.
There was this program that most of our parents used to learn English called Ingles Sin Barrera and they had these really cheesy commercials, and we just absolutely loved it. So, I really wanted to bring in that early-2000s, late '90s vibe when there was a lot of immigration over here. My family came around that time — it was like a big Latin boom in the United States, and we wanted to celebrate that.
