Calle 13 was my senior year muse. For those of you who don’t know, Residente Calle 13 is a Puerto Rican group that’s huge in Latin America, like our Coldplay but verrrry different. I would ride the E train to Queens (listening to some Reggaeton) trying to make some bills, and then head back into the city for a 6-9 class - all in my boots w/ the fur, 80’s door knocker earrings, and puffer jacket (with more fur).
I was ridiculous! I still have a strong affinity for it though - and now that Calle 13 is ALL over MTV, I’m deeply regressing and daydreaming about nail art in East Elmhurst. When it comes to Latina style, all you really need is color, confidence, and a metrocard.
Nail art via Valleynyc.com in the Lower East Side, but you can get this anywhere, just ask for it!
