October comes around and although I’m not in love with the soon to be really cold weather I do enjoy some of the activities that happen during October– Halloween and pumpkin picking! As a kid I could care less about Halloween and definitely never went to a haunted attraction because I didn;t want to die of a heart-attack, until I went to Dorney Park and their Fright Fest night, where…
Where to Eat While Traveling to Chicago As I said last week on y latest post of “Things to do When in Chicago,” I promised I’d also share the places we ate while visiting. I’m not an official food blogger, but we’ve eaten out so many times and given you our reviews time and time again, I’m just going to lightly take that title. Alright, from breakfast to dinners, hotdogs…
Sweater weather is the signature Fall look, but another signature look are maxi dresses! Transitioning your summer maxi dress into your fall look is a fun way to play up your wardrobe– I’ve told you over and over. And no, don’t wear your bright orange maxi dress during fall it clashes– you have to make sure you have the soft tones of every color to pull off the perfect fall…
I did it again! I colored my hair and finally a color I wanted– not that I didn’t want my last color. My last color was a safe color– some lighter colors on my hair to eventually warm it up to what I really wanted. I don’t know about you, but I’m obsessed with PINTEREST, I’m slightly obsessed with it from cooking recipes, styling ideas or hair color, I’m on…
You know I love coloring all over my lips from lipsticks to lip glosses, mattes, lip creams and whatever else they have out there. I’m usually the kind of gal that goes for my signature color; pink, but I’ve been wanting to play it up a bit when it comes to my lipstick. NYX Cosmetics has two collections called Wicked Lippies and Macaron Lippies where they have those bold colors;…
We made it to Chicago! Our trip to Chicago was about a year in planning all because of my spouse and his love for running. Last year, he committed to take his running serious again and two of his goals were to run the Chicago marathon and the New York City marathon. We started to plan our trip/vacation from looking at hotels, what to visit and where to eat. When…
The only good to come from Fall and Winter weather are the warm and stylish clothing. Sweater weather comes in full force and although we may have enough of it we get new pieces every year. I’m pretty sure I’m done with filling out my closet of more clothes that won’t fit, so it’s only right to move on to the kids. Whether it’s shopping for myself or the kids–…
During the summer, I wrote a piece on the new Disney Princess Elena of Avalor and how elated I was that Disney had finally put Latinos on the map as one of the “elite.” I was proud that my daughter, although only half Latina, would have someone to look up to. I took to Instagram and spoke about how much I hated being Latina (Peruvian) when I was younger and…
This is a compensated campaign in collaboration with CHASE and #WeAllGrow Latina Network. I love money. Money makes me happy– to a certain extent of course. With money you can buy whatever your heart desires– umm with limitations. Okay, the point is we work for our money and hold it to a certain regard in our lives. We carefully divide our bucks to pay our rent, necessary purchases and some…
Past few weeks has been a whirlwind of crazy weather here in NYC— warm one day and the next a brisk of cold air hitting our cheeks. When it comes to seasons, I think we can all agree to say it’s one of the best seasons— you get to wear some summer pieces into the fall clothing mix giving your closet more options. One piece in particular that always comes…
