Recently I have opened my email to find some of my favourite locations in Mexico being featured in spring fashion layouts.

Club Monaco is doing collaborations this season with many designers including Valladolid’s own Francesca Bonato and Nicolas Malleville of Coqui Coqui Hotel, Spa and Perfumes. You can read Francesca and Nicolas’ story in this article about the New York Times a few years ago.

Their chic collection has a distinct Yucatecan flair with just a hint of beach thrown in. It is called Hacienda Montaecristo. Named after their hacienda in the Yucatan.

Literally right next door to them in Valladolid is Dutzi Design. Duzti makes handbags out of recycled materials using local Mayan artisans. Her work was recently featured at Shop Latitude.

And just the other day I opened my mail to find this fashion layout for Anthropologie featuring the amazing city of Guanajato as the background. You can check out their video here. It is great to see some of these spectacular location being used.
