How do I get a cool i with the dash on top? Fuck.
This blog is a collaboration of myself and my good friend whose name shall not be released, she is paranoid she will get murdered. Vagina.
Anyhow, a word was recently introduced to me by said friend, which I have fallen in love with, Chola:
The Urban Dictionary definition is as follows:
hardcore latina gangbangers. They usually have thin, arched, angry looking tattooed-on or penciled-on eyebrows, brown or dark red lip liner, 'Monroe', eyebrow and nose piercings, tats, Converse or Nikes, flannel shirts, lots of gold jewlrey (with their name and crosses), crunchy gelled or moussed hair either down or gelled in a high perfect ponytail either straight back or gelled in a design, and they go out with cholos.
A lot of regular mexican or puerto rican girls do the look but aren't cholas. A true chola is down for her barrio and is in a gang, and is as ruthless as a male gangbanger if not more. It is much more common to just look like a chola, and not act like a chola.
The chola style is common in southern California like east LA, San Diego, OC, and also NYC. In Miami they are called 'chongas'.
The friend whose name shall not be released gave the following advice on how to perfect your Chola-ness:
1) Change your name to Lupe or Maria or Baby Gurl
2) Get a gangster Mexican boyfriend who sports a wife beater and a winter hat.
3) Borrow said boyfriends flannel shirt. The bigger the boyfriend, the better.
4) Buy LOTS of black eyeliner.
5) Shave off eyebrows.
6) Draw insanely high arches over shaven eyebrows.
7) Outline lips with same eyeliner
8) Use lots of blue eye shadow on eyelids going all the way up to drawn on eyebrows.
9) Find the reddest lipstick ever and apply.
10) Get a bandana that matches flannel
11) Put hair up in high ponytail and wear bandana on head
12) Don’t forget to wear 22 inch rims hoop earrings!
13) Baggy pants.
Basically you should look like this (Minus the purple ovals I added to hide her identity, not trying to get murdered by some Chola's Cholo.):
