The Light At the End of the Tunnel...

William Shakespeare said that "to weep is to make less the depth of grief" and that technically summarizes these last few weeks. After a major loss in my life, I took time off to grief and reflect on life. I noticed that after each day full of pain, the sun would always came back up to remind me that there's always light after darkness. We cannot change the past and we cannot revive our loved ones, but we can honor their memory by living our lives to the fullest. 

This outfit has been on my computer for weeks, but for the same reasons I was not in the mood to upload it. Today, I decided that it is time to see the future with more optimism. Life is short and we have to make the best of our time on this earth!

Birthday Outfit: Affordable Plus Size Fashion

The products mentioned here were provided by the respective stores; however all the opinions are 100% my own.

I know i'm not the only one that feels that you need to "dress-up" on your birth day. I mean, that is the perfect time to be and feel special. So, why not wear the crown, the fancy dress, or the "it's my birthday" shirt? Hey, many of us have endured a lot of struggles and pain, so why not take that special day to celebrate that you made it? 

This was me last week on my birthday! I dressed up and showed off my balloons because, why not? I honestly had a great birthday. I felt special because of my outfit, but most importantly because of the especial people in my life who took a moment to celebrate me. 

Dolce & Gabbana: A Beauty Brand That Deserves More Exposure

When I think of the Dolce & Gabbana brand, the first thing that comes to my mind is fashion, perfumes, and sunglasses. I never knew that they had a large makeup line, until a few months ago when I received a courtesy package with the new perfume, The One, and a couple of Dolce & Gabbana's beauty products, and WOW! Some of them surprised me a lot!

Denim on Denim

The weather in California has been freezing and thanks to that I have been in bed for a week, with only NyQuil on my side. Today I feel a bit more lucid and I wanted to get back to blogging and I wanted to share with you this outfit from last week (before I got sick :'( ).

The denim jacket is from Lane Bryan. It is lightweight, soft, and very comfortable. The jacket's hat is removable, which gives us another styling alternative.

I bought the jeans from Marshall's. I think they cost me less than $20 bucks and they are ultra comfortable. The velvet heels are from my favorite brand, INC International Concepts but you can also wear this outfit with flats or tennis shoes. The Blouse is from Torrid and it's one of my most worn blouses; so, I love finding new ways to style it.

Finally, the watch is another one of my favorite accessories, it's from Juicy Couture and I bought it at Don Roberto Jewelers . The necklace is from Swarovski and the bag is from Michael Kors. 

Roses and Balloons For Valentine's Day

This Valentine's day was spent completely at the offie, but at night my boyfriend surprised me with beautiful roses and balloons. Although we could not celebrate our relationship on Valentine's day, we did celebrate it over the weekend where I wore this red dress. I know... I know... it is super cliche! 

The dress is simple, but it is mega comfortable, and it is very affordable which makes me lose it even more. It sent it to me from Rosegal. The black heels are from... yes, you guesses right, they are from INC International Concepts! 

So, how did you celebrate Valentine's Day?

Urban Decay All Nighter Concealer Swatches

When the All Nighter Foundation by Urban Decay came out everyone went crazy because it promised to be long wearing  and to have great coverage. So, when Urban Decay released the All Nighter Concealer many of us got extremely excited. 

Casually Romantic: A Valentine's Day Outfit

You don't have to spend money on a brand new outfit to celebrate and enjoy Valentine's Day (unless you want to, of course!). It's just a matter of looking for the right pieces. This flowered blouse from Rosegal is beautiful, romantic, and gives a formal touch to this outfit. The jeans are from Forever 21 ,  and they are my most worn comfortable jeans! I love them because they can easily be dressed up or down. But, lets be honest, the INC metallic heels are to die for, and they are another essential piece for this look. The pink metallic touch definetely makes this outfit even more romantic and sweet. 

So, whether you decide to wear a dress or jeans, make sure to dig in your wardrobe for pieces that you can combine differently and that will make you feel like your are wearing a brand new outfit!
