CITIZENS OF HUMANITY






This trip to LA has to be hands down, one of the coolest press trips I have ever done since I started the blog. I wanted to thank everyone over at Citizens Of Humanity for the hospitality and all the amazing activities they planned for us. Surfing in Malibu was something I could only dream of and thanks to them, I can say I have done it!

We visited the Citizens Of Humanity HQ, factory and laundry on the first day, where we got to see the whole process of how their jeans are made. Its was very interesting to see the whole process, specially the laundry factory, which was my favorite part because we got to see how the jeans get that final vintage look -I wish I also had a giant washing machine, full of stones to make all my jeans look like that-.

An extremely special feature of the whole tour, was the fact that our "guide" around the various factories was Mr. Adriano Goldschmied, better known as the Godfather of premium Denim -Talk about the perfect guide! ;)-

One of my favorite parts of the day, was having lunch at the food trucks, which apparently is a very LA thing. The tacos from truck #1 were AMAZING and the ice-cream sandwich from truck #2 was, well, as good as it looked ;)

Hope you like the photos and more to come soon!

Food trucks are HUGE in California!!! Especially up here in San Francisco. There's been a surge in Asian fusion foods over the last couple years. DEEEEELICIOUS. =)

I hope you get to come visit San Francisco soon! You should experience all of California. ;)

Vivi un par de anios en Los Angeles y la lonchera de Kogi es una de las cosas que mas extranio, ese solia ser mi almuerzo de cada Viernes ya que se estacionaban frente a la escuela :)

Célèste Brott of Fashion is Evolution said...

Oh my goodness, I would be so excited to meet Adriano Goldschmied. I was wearing my favorite pair of AG jeans today. (I have so many pair! It's my favorite brand!)

Those food trucks look yummy. Their not just an LA thing, but a big trend in all American cities for the last few years. I'm obsessed.
