I love this!! Alot of chicanas sport this look and what really cracks me up is the eyebrows!! I'm definitely doing this one. It'd be wrong for me not to do one lol!

Cute chola! 'member lil homies? You 'member lol

And last but not least, for those who really don't know what a chola is click on this link for ppl's various definitions. Some of them are pretty funny.

Urban Dictionary: chola

 

[-Liz-]

"A Chicana/Mexican America/Latina who is the female counter part to the Cholo in the barrio. She claims her space in the neighborhood, city, and community in which she is from. Doesn't have to have been "jumped in" to a gang to play a role as a chola. It really is a barrio mentality and pride in culture that makes her a chola.

The chola art is something very beautiful- while a cholo will have a uniform of creased ****ies, a white tank top and jersey or flannel, Nike Cortes shoes or "chucks", will most likely have several tattoos and a bald head... the chola will shave her eye brows and draw them in very thin like that of the pachucas. In fact their make up resembles a 1930-1940s feel to it with outlined lip liner (usually darker that the lipstick)and "cattails" a streched out line over the eyes and her hair can be bleached blond and puffed out on top like the pachucas...

A very beautiful culture... Cholas are well respected and have a very strong heart.

Damn, everyone I know has a thing for firme looking Cholas. I miss seeing them around."

This is a very passionate Chola lover...

Trish! You look really good... I'm loving the lips.

I was playing around yesterday with my "chola" look - just like testing what I got. I couldn't stop cracking up at how I looked. I told my best friend today we gotta do a photoshoot together. She's down... we got poses set and all.

I tried looking for a friend of mine's halloween picture... she did the best chola look ever. Fake tattoo and all but she hid it on myspaz. Bah.
