    HipLat_logo_final_tagline

    Evelyn is a self-proclaimed Latina Fashionista.

    She loves everything fashion, from finding great deals to putting outfits together. She loves to look at high-end designers, but she doesn't scoff at Target, H&M, Vintage Shops, or even eBay!

    After being a stay at home mom for 17 years and raising 2 kids, Evelyn finds that now, at last, she has time to do what she loves, shopping and working in fashion. She is also a self-proclaimed shoe addict and adds to her collection regularly.

    Evelyn hopes to inspire the 40-something community: "Ladies, being in our 40s doesn't mean we can’t be fashionable. Fashion is about having fun, expressing yourself and feeling fabulous when you walk out that front door." As long as we still look and feel good, we should continue to “rock it!"

    "I find that as I’ve gotten older, I'm much more confident, and will wear anything I like without hesitation—as long as my look remains Elegant, Sophisticated and Classy!"

    Evelyn represents FashionistaOver40, mujer Latina con estilo y elegancia.
