Yes, just as @Uncle Wong says, the textile industry here has a heavy tax burden, with taxes reaching up to 50% of the final price. So many taxes make dressing up almost a luxury. That’s why every time I travel to the U.S., I do my shopping there. Luckily, I travel quite often, so I’d recommend...

This is just the beginning. It seems there are several videos with different celebrities, including Florencia Peña (now I understand her political involvement), Florencia de La V (a very famous trans woman), and the already known Tamara Petinato, who frequented the Olivos estate the most. It...

I was there last weekend, and I loved the place. The atmosphere is excellent, everything is very neat and clean. I stayed until closing time, there was a band playing, and it was quite entertaining. Plus, it has some very Instagrammable spots, so you can take lots of photos.
