Sandra Mireya is a fashion sensation and a model of confidence and charisma. Her bubbly, yet spunky, personality can be seen through her sense of style and favorite fashion trends. “I would like to say that I’m preppy with a touch of spunk. I love pop colors but I also like to be polished. I am a bit quirky, to be honest with you,” she said. This combination of elements makes her AVC’s Best Dressed Girl.
She takes a lot of inspiration from fellow quirky girl Zooey Deschanel and songstresses Regina Spektor and Kate Nash. It’s their cute and kooky uses of color that has her so transfixed. These three unique women have perfected the style that everyone is craving now: the beautiful blend between classic feminine pieces and bright and bold colors.
Although Mireya takes a lot of inspiration from her idols, there are certain trends that she adores and is making all her own. “I love bold color blazers. I am totally in love with them. They can take a simple outfit to a whole other level. I have three pairs in bright red, hot pink and white. I just can’t get enough.”
Blazers may be her recent obsession, but there are particular winged accessories she will never leave the house without. “There is something so liberating about birds. I have sparrow, owl and wing necklaces on long chains that I always wear.” Another staple of hers is a black spinner ring that is engraved with the phrase “Carpe Noctem,” which means “seize the night” in Latin.
There are certain trends circulating now that she prefers to stay far, far away from. One of them being animal print leggings. She points out that unless you have incredibly thin legs, they are terribly unflattering. No girl wants to look like one of the members of LMFAO.
The beauty of Mireya is that she is also a role-model for plus-size girls everywhere that haven’t realized just how beautiful they are. “Just because you’re curvy doesn’t mean you’re doomed to over-sized t-shirts and mom jeans. Skinny jeans are your friends and black isn’t always flattering. Have fun with your wardrobe, don’t be afraid. Play up your best features and just have fun.”
