Start of the week

My week is going to be cray cray. To start it off right I have a midterm to take, a presentation of a project and some huge readings for late at night, which is not bad, but just crazy for my brain to add up so much info in just one day. But fear not, I will be ok and that is why I leave you with cute puppies and a place where I just wish I was at the moment.

Have a nice start of the week!

Cannes 2014: My 3 best dressed

As many of you might know I love some good fashion and specially if all the movie stars are involved in a film festival of the magnitude of the Cannes Film Festival 2014. Therefore there have been a lot of great looks around the week and the ones which caught my attention were the following: 

Blake Lively
(Love the burgundy and the leg showoff) 

Lea Seydoux
(Emerald green is always a favorite for me and the style is just on point) 

Zoe Saldana
(White, pure and fresh and sophisticated) 

Which looks from the red carpets were your favorites? Let me know in the comments so we can gossip like old friends in need of some tea time.

love you!

Winter Love

I have the strangest of all relationships with weather I have ever seen or known of. I hate summer when it is too long and I just can't wait for winter to roll around so that I can take my big warm clothes (or buy new one) and layer them and just be cozy all.day.long. But when that time comes, were leaves are falling, the wind becomes chilly and skies are just completely clowd-packed. I just love it. And also, hate it. (I have trouble believing that I am a sane person for several reasons and then I realize that being normal is completely boring) It happens all over again, when it becomes too long, too freezing and too repetitive. To be honest, it just complicates my mind, my mood and my wardrobe! (I run out of combinations to put together in an outfit, but that aint all, it just makes me feel under the weather and my productivity lowers in about 10% which is not good). 

I have to say, right now I am loving the weather transition but is making me go bananas! But the clothes, oh the clothes. This has lead me to make an importante wardrobe change because of size reduction which is great for my ego, but not for my wallet. 

Hope you have a great time wherever you are and also that you don't hate/love the weather as I do.

Baby Lips #FAIL

A while ago I purchased a Maybelline's Baby Lips and said in a previous post that I would see how did it worked and if it was as miraculous as they preached it to be. They claimed that the product would soften the lips increasingly in a 4 weeks time if you used it consistently and religiously. I did this for the first...what...2 weeks, and noticed that my lips got softer at times but later on they got supper chapped and had to pile more of the product up in my lips for them to be soft again, and once the product was fading up, they become chapped again, this was starting to really annoy me exponentially and iIwas becoming moody and not about the topic. This crazy way of applying the product was, in my opinion, just a marketing strategy for people to keep on using it excessively so that they believed that the product was the one being miracolous, when in reality, it was making the lips more chapped and annoying. 

My final say about the baby lips? They are not good at all and I won't be repurchasing the product. I really like the other Maybelline products like their mascaras, their nail polishes and their eyeliners, but this one didn't matched up with my expectations and I felt dissapointed when the chap-iness started to occur. Instead of getting softer lips, I ended up  with super dry lips, a bad mood and a bad relationship with water (cause it was not helping with the dry-ness). 

Baby Lips score: 2 out of 10.
