About aquamarine

SINCE I WAS A CHILD, I’VE LIKED SCISSORS. MY FAMILY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DENY IT. ESPECIALLY MY SISTER (I DESTROYED HER GRADUATION And quinceañera DRESSES TO MAKE MERMAID QUEUES) OF COURSE I GOT MY punishment FOR DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT to SOMETHING SO “SPECIAL” BUT MY PARENTS NOTICED MY EMOTION AND MY DESIRE to create SO THEY DECIDED TO BUY ME FABRIC TO BE ABLE TO PRACTICE MY MERMAID TAIL designs. After some TIME I WAS PERFECTING THE WAY I MADE THEM, EVEN ADDING DIVER FINS TO MAKE IT LOOK REAL AND SWIMMING EASIER (BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY I MADE THEM TO BE ABLE TO SWIM AND FEEL LIKE A MERMAID) I DON’T KNOW WHEN I BECAME OBSESSED WITH THEM AND THE OCEAN and till this DATE I AM STILL OBSESSED. THERE IS A MOVIE CALLED AQUAMARINE (“MY FRIEND THE MERMAID” IF YOU KNOW WHAT MOVIE I’M TALKING ABOUT WE HAVE TO BE FRIENDS <3) THAT MOVIE IS ABOUT A MERMAID, HER TAIL HAS BLUE TONES, I WAS FASCINATED WITH THEM AND WITH THE NAME ITSELF, I ALWAYS KNEW THAT I WANTED TO HAVE SOMETHING OF MY OWN CALLED LIKE

BEING ORIGINALLY FROM PUERTO VALLARTA, I AM ADDICTED TO THE BEACH, THEREFORE EVERYTHING about BEACH CLOTHING. I MADE ME A GIANT CLOSET BECAUSE I ENDED UP BUYING TOO MANY CLOTHES/BIKINIS but IN THE END I WAS NOT CONVINCED BY WHAT I HAD JUST BOUGHT, It ALWAYS fit LOOSE, SOMETIMES TIGHT, THE FABRIC DID NOT CONVINCE ME ENOUGH. ETC. I NEVER FOUND THE PERFECT BIKINi. HAVING THAT SITUATION, I THOUGHT ABOUT CREATING MY OWN BEACH LINE. AQUAMARINE COLLECTIONS FOR ME IT IS A DREAM COME TRUE, I NEVER IMAGINED BEING ABLE TO CREATE AND DO SOMETHING THAT FILLS MY HEART WITH HAPPINESS, I NEVER THOUGHT THAT ANYONE WOULD WANT TO USE SOMETHING THAT I Designed MYSELF SO… I SET TO WORK TO LOOK FOR THE BEST QUALITY OF FABRIC AND EVERYTHING THAT COMES WITH WEARING A BRAND. I HAVE THE IDEA THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO SOMETHING, DO IT WELL OR BETTER NOT DO IT, SO IT HAPPENED. I FOUND THE PERFECT FABRIC FOR EACH GARMENT, SOFT, LIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL.

WITH AQUAMARINE COLLECTIONS I LOOK FOR NATURALNESS, CREATING GARMENTS IN WHICH YOU CAN FEEL FREE, GARMENTS THAT TRANSMIT COMFORT BUT DO NOT LOSE THE VANITY OF LOOKING GOOD. I HOPE TO BE ABLE TO TRANSMIT THAT TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO ARE PART OF THE AQUAMARINE COLLECTIONS FAMILY, BUT ABOVE ALL, I HOPE THAT ANYONE WHO READS THIS, SEES THAT DREAMS DO COME TRUE IF YOU WORK TO ACHIEVE IT, SO… GET TO WORK WITH YOUR DREAMS AND MAKE THEM COME TRUE.
