Hola! Mi nombre es Aileth Avila, me siento honrrada de ser Covergirl de Quinceañeras Magazine. Estudio en St. Ignatius College Prep. Me fascina ayudar a los mas necesita-dos y ser voluntaria en diferentes orga-nizaciones que dan servicios a la comunidad. En el futuro me encantaria ser una pediatra exitosa. Uno de mis deseos es tener la opor-tunidad de ayudar a los niños desamparados a que sean felices y saludables. En mi tiempo libre me gusta viajar a diferentes lugares con mi familia, me encata leer. Tambien me gusta bailar y diseñar paginas para mis scrapbooks. Gracias al amor incondicional he aprendido a amar a los demas y a mi misma. Me con-sidero una adolescente de buen corazon y nobles sentimientos. Todos mis logros han sido posible gracias a el gran apoyo que he re-sivido de mis mejores maestros y amigos: mis padres (Rocio y Daniel), y hermanitas (Jossy y Kaylie).Para las adolescentes, no permitan que nadie les robe sus suenos, luchen con de-terminacion hasta alcanzarlos y no se den por vencidas. Nunca olviden agradecer a Dios, su

familia y atodas las personas que les ayudaron a lograr sus sueños.

Hola, my name is Natalie and I am fifteen years old. I currently attend Richards High School where I am a sophomore. I am a cheerleader, mathlete, and I am also in all honors classes. I enjoy reading, listening to music, and trying new things. When I am older I plan on going to college and becoming a psychologist. I would like to give all my love and thanks to my par-ents, my family, and God. I am grateful for all the support and love my parents have given me in everything I do. I’m also thankful for having a loving God in my life; without His uncondition-al love and many blessings, I wouldn’t be able to achieve my goals. Lastly, I would like to thank Quinceañ eras Magazine for welcoming me with open arms and allowing me to be apart of the Covergirl family. I am truly blessed for having the wonderful opportunity of representing this magazine. I am looking forward to my journey as Covergirl and being apart of a positive image

for young Latinas.

No matter where your from we all have traditions. Whether you are Mexican, Colombian, Cuban, etc. We all have them. As a latin community we follow many different traditions for example; The replacement of the shoe, the last doll, and many more. Tradition is something you always want to keep, it represents who you are and where you came from. Although tradition can be boring and outdated, when doing it correctly it can be appreciated by your friends and family.

Well it’s easy! Your first step is to research all the traditions out there, by doing so you will have an idea of what you want to do and what fits your style. Then, write down the top 5. Writing five down can help you choose the one that you like and by narrowing the possibilities it becomes a little easier.After, sit down with your parents and discus the one that suits you best. Trust your parents they always know best. Finally, ask your mother, aunts, and grandmother which tradition they decided to show at their quinceanera, that should help you make your decision easier.

We have so many traditions to choose from, so how can you make

sure you choose the right one?

One of my favorites and the one that never fails is the father/mother daughter dance, that one is always a tear breaker. You

want to make sure the tradition your showing brings something special and memorable, because after all you only turn fifteen once. Also don’t be afraid of sincerity, after all everyone loves a good show. Although tradition is something we need to make our quince special you also need innovation, something new or different. Think about been original and unique find ways to make your quince different fresh and new.

Being unique does not mean remaking something. It simply means to change something and making it your own. We all have different styles and attitudes so why not make a quince like you. The little changes is what’s going to make your party original, from the smallest things like the flowers, to the dress, and more. However some people may disagree with me on bringing new elements to the party, but even so new always bring excitement. You don’t always want to be a follower be a leader. So have fun and don’t be afraid of change.

MUSIC What is trending is a “remix”

of songs to go along with the theme

selected! The remix is usually selected

and created by the choreographer! If the

theme is, Michael Jackson, then the remix

should be a variety of his hit songs.

Remember being thankful

never gets o

ld or falls o

ut

of style. s

howing maturity

and kindness is som

ething

to be proud of.

Be Grateful!Sometimes, because of all the excitement, you forget to

thank your family and friends for making your quince experience a great one. We made it easy for you not to forget! Although giving

a speech the day of your quince is important and sometimes mandatory, thanking your guest differently shows your commitment of growing up and maturity. The type of thank you I’m talking about are Thank You cards!

Thank you cards are a must! You already have about a million things to think about, thanking your family and friends can skip your mind.

So why not add thank you notes to your list of Must Haves.

I love you

every body

Ok! But what are thank you cards/notes?.Thank you cards are hand written notes thanking your guest for attending and thanking them for any gifts you received from them.

Writing thank you cards to all your guests is nearly impossible and where do you start? And How? and to whom? Dont’ worry we can help!Think about the people that help you the most that day, for example your court, even if they are some of your best friends, please express your gratitute.Your family ofcourse, this includes, your god parents, aunts, and uncles - show them some love with a hand written thank you note. They will feel appreciated.

Even if they are your best friends and your family, make sure to use your guests full name and personalize the Thank You Card.

Now for the best part having fun with

the thank you cards. Thank you cards don’t have to be a big fancy mess, instead a nice delicate design.You can cordinate with your quince themeor use your dress colors. Or use different colors and design. there’s nothing wrong with been creative! The idea is to have fun and to show your guest you care. Traditionally thank you notes are done for weddings, baby showers, and or birthdays, but must people really enjoy getting these hand written letters because it shows how much you appreciate them taking the time to celebrate with you. So have fun with your thank you cards and be creative, honest, thankful, and inspiring.

What career fits you

TAKE NOTES!

Every year thousands of students graduate from the university and head for a professional career. As you are deciding about what you will be doing in life, the critical step is to decide upon what type of a career is good for you. In other words, what are YOU suitable to?

A number of studies with students demonstrate that many students experience lack of information, conflict, and decision taking worries about profession selection. Many exhibit a negative attitude, feel under-qualified and assume a fatalist position.” I do not even know what I want to do- I will be never be able to do what I really want- I will not be succesfull in this field- It is so difficult to get the job I want, one needs to know the right people for it”. Thoughts like these will have a negative impact on you, they will stop you from taking an initiative and starting and

Would you like to have a career that requires plenty of thinking, reasoning, and creativity that keeps you occupied almost all of your time? Would you enjoy facing a new challenge every day? How interest are you in learning a new technique every day, which in turn broadens your world vision continuously?

All of the above are factors to consider while choosing a career. Yet there is more to think about. As you start your work life other factors like medical aid, pension schemes, bonuses, paid leaves, support for dependants and so and so fort will become important. However, keep in mind that those days are over, and try to make the best out of every new experience you gain at work- after all, this is YOUR career! Know what you want, always do your best and remember what you will gain in the end.

INTELLECTUAL EFFORT

PHOTOS BY PHOTOBELLA

• THE WORK ATMOSPHERE

In which environment would you prefer to work?

Outdoor or office? Hospital or frequent travelling?

• YOUR PERSONAL INTERESTS

Do you enjoy driving? Helping humanity? Looking after

animals? Are you the adventurous type? Do you feel

happy providing care for people in need? How much

do you care if your hands get dirty?

• WORKING HOURS

Weekdays from 9 to 6 ? Can you tolerate

interchanging shifts between day and night

or having to work during the weekend? Do

you mind doing extra time ? Your decision

will affect your social life- while your friends

are partying at a club you might have to be

still at work ?

• PERSONAL EXPECTATIONS

How high do you aim in your career? Do you

want to reach the top? What shall you need to

get there, do you have the necessary qualities

and abilities to go that far?

• DRESS CODEDo you enjoy the idea of wearing a uniform?

Do you prefer to dress up to go to work? Or

are you the casual type?


Lets start with Party busses. If you are miss glam

and you have a large court party busses are perfect for you. You want to make sure your court is comfortable and has fun, after all they did work hard practicing all that time. So they should at least have fun on the bus. But what if you just want to make a great entrance? Well then we go for the luxury cars.

Although limos and

busses are great, why not make a show stopping entrance with a sports car like an Aston Martin One -77 or a classy Mercedes Benz CLS 550 these cars will have your guest jaws on the floor wanting to get a ride from you.

Different way to impress is a carriage

ride become a true Cinderella

with an enchanting white

carriage. This entrance is the

most original, even though

we have seen it in many

movie and tv shows it always

makes a good show stopper.

Remember that Whatever you

decided always think about

different possibilities and

always go for what suits you

best. I have shown you the

possibilities now it’s up to you

to make it original, so show

your guest what you can do

and make it happen.

Another unique and

original entrance can be with a classic car. Even though classic cars are old they still have that excitement. One of my favorite are a 1940 Ford or a 1969 Jaguar X-type these type or cars are perfect for the vintage prince with a little tough act.

Special EntranceYour It may seem that limos are the coolest most popular cars to drive on the day of your quince, but why not go for something a little more exciting. Today we have so many different transportation options, so why go for the usual. We are going to be talking about different types of transportation and cool new ideas for the way you arrive to your party.

Trash the DRESS!

This next trend is more for after the quince

or if you have 2 dresses. The trend is TRASH THE DRESS! Yes you read right TRASH! When I saw this trend I couldn’t believe it, but after I saw all the pictures I was wowed! The way this works is if you have two dresses decide which one to trash. You want to do things that relate to who you are and what you like. But if you don’t have two dresses then trashing it after the quince could be a memorable experience that you will remember for years to come.

The post-quince hottest trend

For the fearless quinceañera.

I’m not talking about literary going to the trash can and trashing it, but doing things you never

thought about doing with your dress on.

IMAGES COURTESY OF www.Photobella.comSacramento, CA

For example horse back riding, going to the beach, painting, playing a sport, swimming, and so much more...

TIP FOR YOUR TRASH THE DRESS PHOTOSHOOT:Your photographer must be very creative. He will produce the 80% of the picture. You and your braveness will do the rest.

The capturing of a special event celebration such as a

Quinceañera has evolved thru the years, amongst the most common; a standard video, blue ray, and now the art of

cinematography.

CONGRATULATIONS IT’S A GIRL! Your Quinceañera the most

anticipated birthday since the day you were born. You and your parents have been dreaming and planning your quinceañera celebration for years. Capture that special day and tell your story using the very new, very popular, very TRENDY art of Cinematography!

Imagine that, tell your unique story through timeless emotion and style, and capture the essence of your fiesta as it happens, highlighting the best moments and the best part

A cinematic video is created by DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) cameras, which also have the ability to photograph. A DSLR camera is comparable to a

filmmaking camera with features such as the capacity to interchange different types of lenses, which provide

different dimensions to a traditional video proving realism to your story. The results a simple scene will

tell viewers a story, while composing photos in motion, a concept similar to today’s movies.

CinematographyThe New trend in video for your Quinces


What’s inWe all love to be in trend and know what is going on in the fashion industry, and with make-up it’s no different. We are always going through magazines (like Quinceañera Magazine…that is) and looking at publications to see what models are wearing on the runway along with our favorite celebrities. Well here are the top trends that have made Spring/ Summer 2012 just a bit more BOLD, Shimmery, colorful, and catty…but

Make up!What’s in

Every season there is something for every

one of us are a bit more bold and other a bit

more sweet whatever it is that you like….you

also can be in TREND! As I ways say, ““There is

no right/wrong way or rules that say how make-

up should be done. Make-up does not come

with instructions! We hold the power within us to

embrace our artistry and use it to our advantage”.

Here are the trends now make them yours:

BOLD COLOURED EYESBright, bold colors hit the runways turning

heads and leaving people speechless.

We are seeing electric colors being swept

from inner eye socket to the outter lid

something that for sure will get attention!

Some of us are bold and other a bit more

sweet whatever it is that you like….you

also can be in TREND! As I ways say,

““There is no right/wrong way or rules

that say how make-up should be done.

Make-up does not come with instructions!

We hold the power within us to embrace

our artistry and use it to our advantage”.

METALLIC EYESWow….my fav! You could never have

too much bling (well in my EYES that is…

lol), metallic and glitter eyes are adding

a lot of bedazzle to the runways and big

events. Some big designers are using

gold or silver leaf on the entire lids; others

are using glitter. Either way both will give

a reflection of true royalty.

CAT-LIKE EYESWho said that being a bit catty …couldn’t be fashionable? A lot of leading designers have swooped the black liner and false lashes on the outer corners to really give you that dramatic, cat-like look! From a soft winged liner to the over the top almost reaching the brows it will for sure be PURRR-fect.

COLOURED LIPSBrightest blue, lime green, fuchsia and all shades blues may all be pretty color to look at…..but what about on your lips? Yes, all these colors have joined the classic red and plums. For an eye opening look that really spills color out of your mouth!

DOLL-LIKE PRETTINESSBeing young and beautiful like yourself always pays off…dewy skin with a gentle blush, pale pink lips and a coat of mascara are your top ingredients for a super pretty, doll-like look. Young, fresh, and clean is the look that many designers chose for their looks something that you might even already be doing….you trendy little girl!

Well here you have it, Summer/Fall 2012 make-up trends. Now take bits and pieces of all your favorites and make it yours, be trendy by mixing and matching to make a statement and show who you are! Because you are you… young, fun, beautiful and TRENDY!

Yours Truly,H. Rivera


Every season there is something for every

one of us are a bit more bold and other a bit

more sweet whatever it is that you like….you

also can be in TREND! As I ways say, ““There is

no right/wrong way or rules that say how make-

up should be done. Make-up does not come

with instructions! We hold the power within us to

embrace our artistry and use it to our advantage”.

But why limit your self to just a cake? why not a cupcake? Cupcakes are great substitutes for cakes, they have individual servings and can give your party that original WOW! factor you want.

WE HAVE THE FLAVOR of the cake what

comes next? Well its all about choosing the

right colors, design, and types of cake. Let’s

talk color. Color is important you want to

keep in mind the color of your dress and

the decoration. If your not sure on the color

always go with things surrounding you, like the

season your quince will be celebrated in and

the venue. When it comes to design try to get

inspired by your parties theme. For example

the theme I have chosen is starry night what

colors come to mind? What structure hits

you? Ask your self these questions and you

will be impress with what you come up with.

NOW ON TO MY FAVORITE, the type of cake. The way you can determine what kind of cake to go with, is asking your self these questions. Do I want to have a cake at the ceremony? If yes, go with a normal but fabulous cake. If no and you want to have more than three flavors on a cake, Then cupcakes are your best bet.

Remember the possibilities are endless with a little creativity your cake design or cupcakes can become a delicious dream come true.

Visit: quinceanerasmagazine.com for more ideas on cake design. And remember always be original.

Who wants a normal vanilla cake when you can have a red velvet, chocolate passion fruit, or strawberries and cream cake.

Currently we have so many different flavors that you can use on cakes, so why go for boring old vanilla. When you could have a delicious chocolate

with buttercream, and have your guest drooling over your cake all night.

Cut me a pieceof that

CAKE!


LAST BUT NOT LEAST Planning a party can be a lot of work. If

you are looking to choose a theme, do not be afraid

to ask potential party goers for their input and advice. Mull

over a variety of possibilities, then pick a theme which is best suited

for your situation. You should also keep in mind the guests who will be attending the party and also, your knowledge of the party’s theme.

HERE SOME IDEAS... In planning a theme party, pick something that you have some kind of knowledge of. It would be quite difficult to put together a Harry Potter party if you have never read any of the books or seen any of the movies. Keep in mind that the theme should start with the invitations, then continue with decorations, food, music, games and entertainment. Also consider the resources available for this theme.

NO THEMEIS NO FUN!

quinceanerasmagazine.com

Do you need theme

ideas? If you are

planning a quinceanera,

consider giving it a

theme. Otherwise you are

going to be out of style.

No theme is no fun.

Themed entertainment You can add fun element in a party by adding entertainment. This can be as simple as setting up a horseshoe tossing competition for a western themed party or hiring a belly dancer for an Arabian nights party. As food is a very important part of party planning, it can also be incorporated into a form of entertainment. your guest can always have seconds.

Themes can range from conservative, such as nature, patriotic or opera themes to wild and crazy like Mardi Gras, Las Vegas, Cirque de Soleil. Here are some tips as to how to choose the right theme, including entertainment ideas. And very unique in a quince, because they take a simple floor and light it up. You could also be sure your guest will want to dance and do the boogie.

Check out these photos from Ariana’s quince

in Puerto Rico.. This is how a themed party

should be. Her theme: Cirque du Soleil.

Renting chambelanes for a quinceañeras is very popular in Mexico, and a new trend

in the USA. Currently in some cities a few choreographers already provide “renta de

chambelanes” but in other cities the trend is just beginning.

For your quince will you be renting chambelanes? Don’t know what to do?

Should you? Shouldn’t you?

ChambelanesRENTADOS??

Planning your quince, so much to do. You rent the perfect venue, the limo, your linen, decorations, but did you know you could rent your Chambelanes too.

THE PROS

•They are professionals and the vals and baile sorpresa should be perfect!•You don’t have to worry about not enough friends or family members willing to be a chambelan.•If too many friends/family members, you won’t hurt anybody’s feelings by not asking all of them.•You are renting them, they cannot drop off.•Will spend less time coordinating rehearsal times, tuxedos, etc

THE CONS • You have never met them.• They are not your family or friends.• An added expense for your family, tuxedo rentals.• They may not be able to stay for the entire party.

IMAGES BY GUSTAVO VILLAREAL

Consider the following; but remember

at your quince you are the princess!


Chambelanes

Be dazzled NOT!!!

WHEN IT COMES TO JEWELRY FOR YOUR QUINCE YOU HAVE

DIFFERENT OPTIONS. FOLLOW A HISTORIC TRADITION, BE A CLASSIC

QUINCEAÑERA, OR BE A TRENDSETTER!

You have your dress, your shoes, hair appointment is set, but what about jewelry?

Girls, fashion in a Quinceañera dress has changed; from a traditional white, to pastel colors and now bold vibrant colors, fashion in shoes from flats to heels to chik chux back to heels. Be a trendsetter, consider custom jewelry for your quince, after all you don’t need to be bedazzled

with the bling, bling, bling…. you will shine simply because YOU are a gem

or

Traditionally the quinceañeras

godparents present a gold rosary or a gold necklace with a locket or medal at the religious

ceremony. The quinceañera

America gets ready! These already very popular boy bands are here and we will see a lot more of them! Pin up posters, clothing, toys, and school supplies. And we will be hearing a lot more of them and their screaming fans.

Making a comeback

Just like neon colors popping up all over, trending today are BOY BANDS!

It has been over 10 years since boy bands like, NSYNC and backstreet boys dominated

the entertainment world. Trending today, a new generation of boy bands (The

Wanted, One Direction, Big Time Rush and Mindless Behavior) is making its way to

the spotlight.

It is predicted that the following will “pop” or reach the top this 2012. Join us in

meeting these two boy bands that might take the world by storm this year.

• ONE DIRECTIONA British-Irish boy band consisting of, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson, signed with Syco Records and later in America to Columbia Records, after being formed and placing third in the seventh series of The X Factor. Their debut album, “Up All Night”, became the fastest-selling album of 2011 in the UK. In 2012 it debuted at number 1 in the U.S. Billboard 2012, the first UK band in history to debut at number one with their first album. One Direction’s World Tour is set for 2013 and almost sold out!

• THE WANTEDALSO, British, (Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Jay McGuiness, Tom Parker and Nathan Sykes) are making history! They are very talented and recently finished a great tour here in the U.S. They are the first

boy band to make the Billboard’s Top 10 list since the Backstreet Boys, and, their hit song, “Glad You Came,” which has been getting a lot of airplay, is number 5 on the chart!

with quinceaneras valses and surprise dances. WHAT ARE YOU:


So lets get started!

First thingis first!

Second you must already have an idea of what you want the theme

to be. With your theme picked out, decide if you want an indoor or outdoor quince, and yes you can have an outdoors quince.

Then comes the hard part doing research. Picking which venue

gives you the most for less, is super important. Look for packaging, ask if they have any promotions and if they could lower the prices if you choose all the services they offer.

Start by allowing yourself at least a year for the planning of your party. The venue should be the first on your list to book.1.

4. Most venues have photographers, floral arrangements, and even offer a party planner.

• Make sure you do your homework and ask questions.

• By asking questions, you can determine if the venue provides good costumer

service and are interested in actually making your party a successful one.

• If you see unorganized managers/owners run away they will not care if last minute have a crisis and need their help.

So be smart Ladiesand remember you are the consumer so go for what you want and get it.

Finding the ideal venue can be difficult,

with so many different options the experience can be overwhelming. Here are some quick and easy tips on how to choose the best venue and

get the best bang for your buck.
