Dedicated to the Latina women, this practical guide written in Spanish shows its readers how to dress for any occasion according to their body type and personality. Published by Random House Mondadori, the book is now available for $19.99 at www.holamartin.com and major booksellers nationwide.

In Discover Your Style, Martín reveals the secrets of style formerly reserved for the rich and famous. Through simple language, images of real Latina women captured by celebrity photographer Gio Alma, and practical exercises, readers will discover the keys to looking and feeling beautiful, stylish and self-confident. In an entertaining and engaging manner, Martín takes his readers on a journey that will teach them how to discover their body type to make the very best of their shape and learn how to dress for any occasion. Filled with beautiful imagery and illustrations, Discover Your Style will teach women the art of concealing and revealing.

“Martín has written a really different and practical book. Discover Your Style helped me accept myself as I am. Feeling confident is the first step to broadcasting an image of beauty and elegance,” says internationally renowned actor Kate del Castillo. “It doesn’t matter what type of body you have, as long as you know the difference between what you like and what fits and flatters your shape. Discover Your Style is a must-read for all Latinas who want to feel and look great.”

Discover Your Style unlocks the door to looking fabulous for any occasion by choosing clothing and accessories according to your body type and the unique style of each woman. To demonstrate the positive and negative attributes to consider when dressing, Martín selected Latina women of varying ages, sizes and heights and classified them in five categories. Step by step, the author transforms the image of each of these women and shows them how to achieve professional, casual and evening looks for each body type — without spending a fortune or sacrificing personal style.

“It was important to me that my first book serve as a practical guide for Latina women to discover and accept their bodies. Over the years, the most frequent questions I receive from my fans are related to how to take the fashion trends they see on TV, magazines and red carpets and how to adopt them to their lifestyle and curvier body types,” said Martín, who has spent more than 15 years inspiring U.S. Latino community. “My book will give Latina women the tools to discover their best features and learn how to dress accordingly, regardless of the fashion trends that will come and go – my readers will know what works and what doesn’t for their body type and personality.”

Born in Spain, Martín Llorens is a renowned fashion and beauty expert who has won people’s hearts with his charisma, charm and spot-on advice that helps Latinos accomplish their dreams. Through his weekly fashion segments on the national television program “Despierta América,” his numerous beauty articles and seminars; his recent national radio program “Hola Martín” which aired on Univision Radio, and www.holamartin.com, Martín stays true to his mission of promoting a balance between inner and outer beauty.

With the intention of introducing Latino images into the mainstream, the collection transcends boundaries and appeals to anyone interested in cutting edge fashion.

“My goal is to dress today’s fashion conscious person for their day at the office or any special occasion” Gregorio Founder, William Lopez said. “My accessories allow him or her to feel the pride and exhibit the beauty of the Latino culture.”

The neckwear reflects the exquisite colors and images of the Latino culture often observed through art, architectural styles and pottery. The collection was inspired by iconic images such as Mexico’s Aztec Eagle Warriors, Lotería and the Virgin of Guadalupe. Each tie and scarf bares a label detailing the history of the symbol used in the design in both English and Spanish connecting whoever wears the piece to its meaning in Latino heritage.

“Neckwear gives you a canvas to tell and share your story,” Lopez said. “It is not about creating a statement that is equivalent to wearing a neon sign, it was about creating a presence in which the person could look in the mirror and just know.”

Featured in Latina Magazine’s 2008 Gift Guide, Gregorio’s premiere line of handmade ties was well-received by many. With the expansion into ladies’ scarves, the newest collection promises to be even more groundbreaking than its predecessor. Purchase Gregorio ties and scarves online at www.GregorioTies.com and specialty retail stores nationwide.
