Beauty | Tools - Makeup Brushes

A couple of months ago, I made a purchase of new makeup brushes, and they got here just a few weeks ago. In the set came 32 brushes.

Celebrate | Mother's Day

Happy belated mother's day for all moms out there who are always looking out for their kids and the ones who feel like so even if they are not their own.

Yesterday I spent a very relaxing day with my mom and my grandma. I decided I was going to cook them brunch and spoil them a little with food and a lot of love.

Fitness | Current mood

Right now I am sitting in bed, listening to Ariana Grande's Dangerous Woman, after a workout. 

Life is happy. 

Ending it right.

This week has been an emotional roller coaster. Don't yo ujust hate it when that happens? Ups, downs, turns, cero gravity and finally, it stops all of a sudden? Maybe we don't realize how big or small those impacts are in our lives but sometimes they just pin point things that may be happening or things that already passed and you didn't notice. 

But as all things that can and may go wrong, small details are the ones that create a whole something and make you smile, just for a little while through it all.

Never let negativity and trouble bring you down. Maybe from that experience you can take something and learn from it.

Pretty things to make you smile this Friday are about to come.

Bye Bye May.

I've had the craziest month. Some ups and downs came my way, and have been really learning experiences. Loved them and also hated them. It's things like these that make me open my eyes and understand how much time I spend trying to multitask, but it is actually not working at all. I can do some things at the same time, but have figure out that if I just do one thing, finish it and then continue with the next, is going to make my life easier and stay on top of my game. 

Yesterday I heard a phrase that is stuck on my head, "It doesn't matter the speed of the things you do, it matters how you do them and how well you perform them". Well yes, I have been trying lately to keep up with the craziness. I just can't any more. I am not following it, it's not my pace.

For June, my goal is to go at my speed, don't try to multitask cause that is making me fall behind. I sometimes think that the whole world if pushing me to walk faster than I am used to, but this time, I just want to take it my way.

May has been, most definitely, a learning month, one that has made me open my eyes and be struck with reality. Being a grown up is certainly more difficult. You just have to learn how to handle things and go with your own speed.  

I hope your month is starting off right! 

have a great day! 

Mother's Day 2013

Happy mother's day to all the moms out there!

We are having a special time at home, doing nothing but chill out and enjoy the pretty day. We had a brunch where we enjoyed a pretty yummy feast and my grandma got all the attention. Of course my mom too, but my grandma is a mom times 2.

Head over to Instagram and check out today's pictures of our brunch table.

I hope you are having an awesome time with your moms and show them you love them to the moon and beyond, cause to the moon and back is such a limited distance.

May Factor: Shoes

Happy May! 

To be honest, I really like this month, it is the fact that the season are really starting to change and you can feel it at night with the cool wind and the chilly feeling you get. I am still waiting for it to be a lot more cold but I'll take that over supper hot summer days. Totally not a fan of hot days because I certainly don't know what other piece of clothing to take off and not be completely butt naked (as a figure of speech) 

With May comes the mark of the middle of the semester too. MIDTERMS month. just for the first week of it. not a fan in that matter but that means less time to go until middle year break. Yes here we do it differently. 

A couple days ago I went out for what seemed a long time since I went and have some drinks and have a nice time with my friends. Seriously. It was great to catch up and share some laughs. 

What I noticed. I spent too much time with very comfortable shoes and zero heels last month, which have caused a serious problem with my feet. I can't stand in heels for more than 3 hours without my toes hurting for being trapped in a shoe jail. 

That was it. I need a change. I want more heels than flats to wear almost regularly. I have now a fair share of flats. Almost too many. But (there is always a but) I need heel intervention so all my shoes are coming out for stroll in the city for work, university, you name it. 

May is going to be a good month. I can feel it. And my heels and I will love it.

NOTD: Revlon's Really Rosy

Hey Everyone!

As you can tell, I'm a huge Revlon Nail Polish Junky. Today, is Friday, my favourite day of the week because the weekend starts. I thought today I wanted to wear a colour that was still summery but more earthy toned to go with the fall that is coming.

I personally love this colour, it's girl-y but gives an edge to the whole concept, it's a dirty rose tone.

it's a really pretty colour but i feel the picture just distorts the tones. But it pretty much looks like it.

Have a nice day and enjoy the start of the weekend!

Welcome May!

Hey everyone!

It's May already, I feel the year is flying by so fast! And of course, you gotta be the best at everything you are going to do. I have been stressing over the university and have witnessed that every day as it gets closer to the last semesters of it, it becomes harder and harder.

Trying to balance every little detail in life is not impossible but it sure is a whole lot of work. I love the challenges but some days I just feel drained and with no energy to get out of bed, but girls gotta do what girls have to do and just keep on going to reach your goals.

I have a pretty nice memory to share with you all since it's May and it's the 4 year anniversary of my prom trip to Punta Cana, the Dominican Republic.

At this time of year, we were all prepping to get our tans on and enjoy the live in the sea. The skies where clear and the seas were super turquoise and crystal clear. Every single bit of the beach was bright and beautiful. 

a view from the plane so you can see what I saw :) 

I feel like every little detail can be seen down there. The hotel was everything you could've asked for. We stayed at the Tropical Princess and it is part of the Bavaro Princess chain of Hotels. 

here a picture of one of the pools

I was so happy there, I found someone special and saw how pretty life is, and how good you feel while living life at it's fullest. 

Talking about this made me want to go back, maybe after graduating university I will travel with some friends over there. Or who knows, maybe I'll go to some other place, like Montercarlo. 

I hope you have a nice day and Month.
