About
Lux vita et iocus is a fashion and creativity blog, which started at January 2009. It's name is written in ancient latin and it means light (Lux), life (vita) and fun (iocus also stands for games). This blog is also known by it's shorter name Lvi or L>i. It started with entries in spanish, but thanks to the viewers outside Mexico, it´s now written in both, spanish and english.
Lvi blog main idea is that fashion is also a way of expressing who you are, therefore dressing, styling, hairstyles and all, are a natural way of letting people know who you are. From this point of view, personal style is not vanity, it´s simply a matter of creativity and communication.
Blog contents
Lvi´s content is shaped by style pictures, fashion sets that sometimes are a reply to Fashion Emergency requests, brand and products reviews, fashion news, music, and every once in a while anecdotes, ramblings and movies.
Even when Lvi, started in a not-so-fashionable-city in central Mexico, it´s content aims towards worldwide viewers and ageless style fanatics.
Since the blog is fueled by the viewers, at the end of every blog entry, users can express their opinion, either by leaving a comment or simply by clicking on the opinion chart: ♥♥♥♥♥ If you loved the entry, ♥♥♥ if you really liked it, ♥ if it´s so-so, or yuck! if you didn´t like it at all.
