My name is Monika, I'm 24 years old from McAllen, TX. In March of 2007 I purchased the name "Monikapolitan.com" and in April 2009 established an online boutique called Monikapolitan.com. This is the official blog and photo diary for my personal adventures, life experiences as well as a place to share new items, store info, beauty tips and fashion favorites. I also recently started a life inspired clothing brand called Midnight Snackz.
