I purchased 3 of these bags. This bag is the perfect reusable bag for going to a market. Fold it up and always have a stylist tote. I put one in my travel bag and the other stays in my car. My daughter snatched one too. I get many compliments.
While this top is listed as vintage, the fabric is substantial. The colors and design are vibrant and beautiful. It is extremely well-made. When I mentioned that I hope that it fits, Angelica expanded the neckline by hand. This is a wonderful organization with top-tier service and quality. This top is lovely. I highly recommend them!
I love these earrings! They are light, beautiful and make me feel closer to my culture. I have 3 pairs: emerald, purple and teal 💕

I love the miniature huipil ornaments from Vida Maya with initials on them to represent my loved ones. They were delivered quickly and packaged with such care! Even the bags the ornaments came in are treasures. Thank you, Vida Maya!
Gorgeous gift. Absolutely stunning and unique vintage huipil. Beautifully packaged and with extra treasures. These kinds of gifts are pieces of art and history that could never be purchased elsewhere. Support a small, female owned, Latina company. Win win win❤️
Beautiful, I put it on my had & went out for multiple errands. Got a lot of thumbs up, where did u get it questions and some stares.
This is a well-preserved Guatemalan huipil that I was happy to purchase. In addition, I was really pleased that there was a nicely sewn "slit" in the huipil front making it easy to put over my head! (Often, the circumference of the neckline opening is too small for many of us here in the U.S.!) Thanks you, Vida Maya!
Thank you for these beautifully made clutches, I would love to purchase the long strap on the reddish purple clutch that was missing the long strap (therefore was in sale) if and when it comes in. Also, I love a green leather clutch I bought some years ago that was smaller in dimension and there fire in between a bag and a wallet. I still have it, but would love another!
Found this shop in 2020 & been buying my girls huipils since then. The idea that they are pre loved & Angelica has given them another chance to be passed on to a newer generations instead of being thrown away is what keeps me coming to purchase again & again. I will save them for my girls kids & pass them on. I love how she added the black lace which makes it a little modern yet still vintage.
Thank you so much! It was really lovely to do business with you!
I love, love, love the pink color and size of my Coin Pouch! It is beautifully made and much bigger than I expected. I also loved the friendship bracelet and doll tucked inside the package.
I love these bags. Not only do I use them for my kids and I when we travel I love to give them as gifts as well. 5 stars all the way! PS they hold up so well. We travel a lot and they still look great.
The Tops that I have ordered for years are unique and beautifully made!! Each of the items are hand crafted with love!!
I love these earrings!!! They are light, beautiful and make me feel closer to my culture 💗 I have 3 pairs: emerald, purple and teal 💕
