Can you relate to Gelga?

Gelga López (pronounced as Helga) is a 24-year-old go-getter and scholar from Mexico who is showing the world that if you want attention, you don’t have to be slack about it. She is anything but the average girl with regard to her appearance! Whereas most females her age would be showing lots of skin and trying to overly impress others by “doing it for the Gram”, Gelga takes a more modest and casually haute approach to her outfits. She is a true fashionista at heart and an inspiration to us all; expressing that modesty is the new sexy. We will analyze her secrets on how she sets the bar for remaining classy, clothed and comfortable in just 4 simple steps.

1) Define your style and set priorities.

At heart, Gelga is a cultured and creative ad hoc dresser with a love for chic euro-vintage looks. She admires the style of Jennifer López and she knows exactly what is meant for her and what isn’t. For example, one thing that Gelga dislikes is shirts without sleeves because when going out, she loves to feel cozy and snug, and that premise sets the tone for what type of clothing she would buy like jackets, dresses and even boots. She always places comfort over looking fashionable.

2) Your style should always compliment your personality.

The way we dress says a lot about who we are and according to Gelga, the main reason why outfits fail is because they don’t mesh well with our personalities. In addition, an outfit should never be bigger than the personality that carries it and for that reason, she never tries to pull off a look that is out of her comfort zone. It must always be spirited but pleasant enough to allow for her bubbly and soulful personality to shine through.

3) Know how to shop.

The secret is in the shopping! Gelga believes that buying clothes according to your body type is already half of the job done. Why? Not everyone can afford couture but by knowing your shape and paying attention to detail, you can effortlessly achieve that desired look. That said, when shopping for new clothes, she first selects breathable close-fitting bases to showcase her curves and to act as shapewear, with black or other neutral colors to compliment her skin tone. In addition, she firmly believes that dressing reserved doesn’t have to be boring and that intricate details and accessories are what sets your clothes apart. As a result, she is easily drawn to most things with sequins, beads, lace or anything subtlety unique to satisfy her creative side and passion for attracting positive attention, through her dress.

4) Be flexible with your outfits.

Even though Gelga adores her long sleeves and reserved semi-elegant attire, she isn’t always super covered and conservative, let’s just say that she knows when and where. For example, it’s very common to see her rocking shorts from time to time but you can guarantee that they would never be revealing or excessively tight. However, you can bet your last cent that they will be modish or have some flair of uniqueness to them. She believes that an outfit should never look store-bought and whatever Gelga does or wherever she goes, her aim is to always look effortlessly chic.

Formal & Fun.

The bottom line.

Gelga is living proof to show that by adding your own creative touch, you can dress comfortably and still get noticed. Dressing with confidence through self-respect will make you stand out in a world where excessive exposure is the norm, and as a result, we are pleased to announce that Gelga will probably be throwing in some eastern flair as her dedication to “keeping it classy” along with her outstanding academic ability, has landed her a scholarship to study in Tianjin, China. We love her and we wish her a fashion-filled future.

“¡Hola Churrys!” With a little creativity, you can be stylish and comfortable at the same time. Never feel pressured by today’s style trends or standards of beauty. Kisses xx.
