Last Sunday, one of my closest friend’s daughter got married. So, we decided we were going to travel and join them in such an important day. So, when from California to NYC and back in 3 days, I’ll call this kind of trips, thunder trips.
For the wedding I wore {this} amazing dress by Ralph Lauren . We were staying at the St Regis Hotel – our home away from home. Here we love it, specially when we come with the kids. Although this time we were on our own, they will do about anything to maximize family quality time. I’m looking forward to one day going to their Maldives resort.
Nacho and I had meetings on Monday morning, and in the afternoon, I took advantage of the fact that I was staying in the area so decided to make a pit stop at the Frederic Fekkai salon @ 5th Ave. Got my hair cut, and their signature “balayage” highlights. I choose to do this for 2 main reasons: #1 with all our traveling this process allows to be flexible and get my hair done at least every 4 months (versus other techniques that require to go more often) #2 It is less damaging, for that #1 reason.
Who doesn’t like to go into a place knowing they will be well interpreted? How many times have you gone to a random color technicians, and ended up with unwanted result? How frustrating and disappointing, right? At this point I can’t afford loosing my time, and needless to say, no more hair issues! I already have a lot going on and I feel that this is not what I need to be worrying about, thus when I find a good one, I keep coming back.
At this salon, Elie Camoro, who’s creative director has styled before. I also love how Daniel Vilano has done my hair color in many occasions. But this time was Sandra who did the cut, and Lena my color.
After this we took off to Ohio. We are working on a secret project, and therefore we had a meeting for that. We landed in the evening and stayed at this cute little hotel called The Joseph. I really liked this city. Although I felt that the short time we were in Ohio didn’t do any justice, I already could feel that I wanted to travel back and see more of this place. Something tells me that we will be back soon 😉
Finally we got home Tuesday late. Have you ever had this feeling that everything was a dream? It’s so funny. I have it constantly. Specially when I travel to the other side of the world and back in 3 days. And I don’t mean NYC.
I have picked some of my favourite items that I have and help me keep it all together thru these thunder short trips. I hope you love them too. And I love to hear from you, so please leave your comments below!
By the way, I didn’t travel with the falmingo, but I think it looked so cute on this grid that I will buy it for Alba. She loves stuffed animals.

I’ve asked this before and I really want to know……………who is taking all the fabulous photos of you and Nacho together? i know that he is taking photos of you and you are taking photos of him but there are so many of the two of you. do you have a photographer who hangs out with you? the photos are all beautiful by the way
I often wondered myself … knowing you are an amazing photographer who takes the photos of you & nacho ? … I love all the items you posted and most I can not afford but it’s ok because I just love looking at them.. I always thought a great way to make money for charity is for celebrities to see there unwanted clothes shoes bag costume jewelry whatever , but make it affordable so fans can buy them as well .., I know I am a dreamer but hey you never know lol love lisa
Thank you! I will try to make an affordable grid next time! But I am glad this is making you dream! Never stop dreaming! xx
Hi Donna thank you so much for you kind words. The photos I take of nacho and I usually are shot on a mini tripod I travel with. And the camera I use is still the Leica for traveling. Im working on changing my old (huge and heavy) Canon for a smaller one, though. But for now thats it…

Love the st. Regis in NY, they have butlers to iron and put away your clothes
Hi Delfina: Love what you are doing with your blog post and am really enjoying its evolution 🙂 Thank you for opening up and sharing about some of your “loves” and your life in general! always looking forward to the next post.
Thank you!
Hola! Oh, my! Incredible! Before I had to travel a LOT and had to go and work the next day totally jetlagged. Now, when i travel & when i get back home i have to rest flat on the bed for about a week. I feel my soul is still up in the air. I feel like a dinosaur. But how cool it is to travel and wander around cities & discover things, even if you’re in a “thunder trip”?? I love your hairstyle. I’m in a new city now so I’m on the quest for a new stylist. Baylage will be too. Less damage for sure. I hope you get to rest flat on the bed even if for a bit. I love the flamingo, I want it for myself, hA ha! Also love the pants!

Well as usual I love your posts and your family. I don’t follow many celebrities but You guys are the best and I look forward to all the photos and stories. So cute the kids are . I am always smiling and wish them well. Anyway I love the pants and your haircut is a big yes. I am traveling to Los Angeles on friday and coming home tuesday. I do this trip often to visit my daughter. I try to go with the flow like my only job is to get on the plane, make myself comfortable by wearing appropriate clothing and having my devises and my magazines and a good book. I let the pilots get me there. Before I know it I have arrived. I try to keep my NY time schedule which is easy because my daughter is an early riser. But I have to say you guys really know what you are doing. Sometimes I am like what??? they are where??? madonna mia!
