Goodbye 2017, Hello 2018

Last night, Roberto and I went to a coffee shop where we talked about our goals for the upcoming year. While we were planning goals for 2018, we also reflected on all the amazing moments from this past year. It had me reflecting a lot on my blog too, which inspired me to create this post. Here are some accomplishments and best moments of 2017, as well as the top post you guys have liked in my short four months of blogging.

Holiday Outfit Ideas + Accessories

Who doesn't love a great outfit for Christmas? I usually tend to dress up for Christmas Eve then go a bit more casual for Christmas day. Regardless of your style, I came up with two different looks with pieces I already had in my closet and paired them with some accessories from 6th Borough Boutique -- a boutique with high fashion, eco friendly accessories.

Winter Weekend Getaway: Niagara Falls

  Last weekend Roberto and I decided to do a semi-spontaneous trip to Niagara Falls. We left Friday evening, and arrived to Ontario around 7:30pm that evening. Now anyone that knows Roberto and I, knows that Roberto is usually the one to plan our trips since he is much more well traveled than I am. However, this time -- I planned the trip. Well, kind of. Ha!

For that, I'm Thankful

Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday. I just love spending time with family, eating great food, and kicking off the holiday season.

Simple Stress Relievers

TGIF!  This week was such a rewarding, yet bittersweet week for me. While I'm excited for what's ahead, sometimes I can't help but feel stressed. I have my fair share of stressful moments. Actually, who am I kidding? I'm the queen of stress, however I try to incorporate these daily stress relievers into my regular routine to help me manage to get through the week.

Easy Bun Tutorial Without Fillers

Buns are such an easy way to look put together without spending tons of time on your hair. While I was in a rush one morning for work, I discovered a way to achieve the look of a sock bun WITHOUT using any fillers or hair pieces. It literally took me 5 minutes, using minimal products.

5 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Let Your Fear of Traveling Stop You From Going

I was afraid. Wait, let me rephrase that -- I was terrified my first time I went abroad.

Why you ask? Well for starters it was something new for me -- going abroad that is. New things scare

The Proposal

It's every girl's dream -- wondering who, when, how, and what their engagement will look like. I remember being younger thinking of all the possibilities and thinking that my fiancé could literally be anywhere in the world.

How To: Effortless Flat Iron Beach Waves

One of the most popular questions that I get asked by clients is how I do my hair to achieve a messy/natural looking beach wave. I always tell them that at first it's hard to do on yourself, but once you keep practicing and get the hang of it, it'll take you about five to ten minutes. The secret? The messier the better!

Calvin Klein Sale

I'm a huge sucker for a sale. Actually, rarely do I ever buy something at the actual retail price. I recently bought a couple of pieces from Calvin Klein at the outlets and figured I'd share -- because I am obsessed!

Grande Lash Review

Whether you are wearing a full face of make-up or going natural -- it's no secret that nowadays girls are striving to have a strong lash game.
