NAGUISA + SUEÑOS NEGROS: HOW TO WEAR YOUR ESPADRILLES ON VACATION
MARIONA, THE WOMAN BEHIND SUEÑOS NEGROS
The link between Sueños Negros and Naguisa dates back to almost the very start of this venture. Mariona, the woman behind Sueños Negros, opens the doors to her store on Paseo de Gracia to tell us about her journey to date and to talk about her new Sueños Negros space in Fornells (Menorca). Come along with us to Sueños Negros to see how she styles her favorite espadrille designs and makes the most of them when on vacation.
Who is Mariona? Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
I’ve loved drawing ever since I was little, so that’s why I chose the field of fashion design. My goal was to open a multi-brand store. I’m good at predicting trends... I love animals and nature, so more than anything, my pieces have to be comfortable. I have a special fondness for retro looks from the 50s and 80s.
The Sueños Negros team has selected styles Miru, Senta and Fumarola to recommend versatile and warm weather-friendly looks ideal for vacations.
The first offers those eighties vibes that Mariona already mentioned: she composes a look with a basic tee, comfy and flowy animal print skirt, and a matching belt bag. Would it even be summer without a belt bag? The added comfort comes from our Senta espadrilles, suitable for all foot types.
You just opened a Sueños Negros shop in Menorca. What led you to that decision?
We opened in Menorca (Fornells) because my husband and I decided to put down roots here. It’s an island where people are respectful and hardworking, and my daughter and our animals can roam freely. Not to mention, the Menorca crowd is very “be Sune, be happy.”

This “total white” styling with basket bag and espadrilles couldn’t be more Menorca. The Miru black check add an original touch to this off-white cotton set that is suitable for any and all island plans.
What is it like to work with the Naguisa team? What makes us different?
Naguisa is very ‘me.’ It has a nostalgic vibe and comfortable soles I can wear to pick tomatoes or go out for dinner in town in the summer. It’s such a lovely brand!

The third look suggested by Sueños Negros is more metropolitan and a winning combo: A white tank top and jeans. The special addition that Mariona suggests for going out to dinner? Our Fumarola style in light gold, sunglasses with plenty of personality, and an extra roomy printed basket bag.
Of all our designs to date, which is your favorite? How do you like to wear it?
I have more than one! I would say Etel and Peonia for summer. I wear them with oversized checkered or linen dresses or my baggy cotton ankle pants with elastic hem.
