Art Gallery Comes Across Fashion Gallery at Downtown Mexico City Stores

Mexico…burritos, tacos…telenovelas… museum…ancient arts, modern art…fashion…anything that has to do with celebrity and catwalk wear…worth thousands of bucks -- these were my conventional concerns regarding these topics. But things changed and my mind also changed all because of one decisive runaway trip to Mexico city with my Latino confidants sometime around two years ago.

I'm not really into art or fashion and Mexico for me is simply my associates' ancestral country. I saw nothing unique about them. But as we were tramping inside a shopping mall in mid-downtown, a pair of shoes displayed at a shop window caught my attention -- attractive Pineda Covalin stilettos with a mosaic of butterfly wings for design. They were marvelous and I never thought that shoes of those kinds would ever come out in a classy mode.

I've been hearing Pineda Covalin's name all the way along my previous Mexican trip but I was never really drawn until that very stretch. I never thought that someone could fuse bright fashion with deliberate art gallery worthy designs. From pre-Hispanic to Frida Kahlo, their shoes, handbags, scarves and supplementary accessories are simply cleverly fashionable. Thankfully, I don't have to take a long tiring trek just to get a piece. Pineda Covalin had just opened a store at my ideal mall so now I can comfortably say that finally, Mexico has gone Mexicool.
