Let’s get personal for a sec — I’m Carolina!

Mexicana de corazón 🇲🇽, raised on pan dulce and creativity. I now call Houston home, where I live with the love of my life, Jesus, my husband, our twins (double the love, double the chaos) ‍‍🩷💙, two chill turtles 🐢🐢,and two diva Yorkies — Mia & Camila — who honestly run the house.

I’m the founder of @mymariavictoria , a business I built with heart and hustle. I’m also the creative behind @urbanmemoirs, where my love for photography lives 📸.

I’m an industrial designer, entrepreneur, fashion + shoe lover 👠, and a proud member of the ADHD club — which basically means I have 1,000 ideas a day and want to turn every single one into a passion project (and probably a business too) ‍⚡️.

Since I was little, I’ve been obsessed with beautiful objects. I used to sneak into my grandma’s living room just to explore her 1920s bags, hats, and tiny decorative treasures 🎩👜. That’s where the love for vintage started… but the magic of estate sales? That’s a newer obsession — and one I owe to my dear friend, Jenna, who shares my passion for home design and antiques.🏡.

I still can’t believe it took me this long to discover all the wonder that was hiding right under my nose.

This space is a mix of it all — design, fashion, vintage finds, family, chaos, creativity, and the beauty of turning everyday moments into something special ✨.

Thanks for being here. Let’s enjoy this journey together!

— Carolina
