LIFESTYLE: SMOCKED SET

Last month I was supposed to go out for vacation with my child, for some reason we were never able to come to an agreement on where we were going to go.

Than when we had a location, but something didn't feel right.

I sort of always tend to be pretty good with intuitions, therefore when I decide to ignore red lights, I take it upon myself really hard.
This time I really went with my intuition and we cancelled plane tickets and all.

Fast forward to the day of our vacation, we decided to road trip and go somewhere "Local"

We headed out to San Antonio.

The last time I was in San Antonio, was when I was around 17.

That time, I only went to the river walk and that was all, I really dint't explore.

This time around, I wanted to explore a bit more, I was amazed on how much San Antonio reminded me of Mexico, City.

Here in Fort Worth, we have so many places that sort of take me back to Mexico, but not quite like Mexico, City.

We made out first stop at El Mercado (Market Square) the shops there, definitely brought the feeling of Mexico, City Historic Center (El Centro).

I walked into almost all the shops at El Mercado, although a lot of them have similar products, it just felt amazing to see authentic products, clothes, food from Mexico.

That day I also knew I wanted to look stylish and most of all comfy.

I decided to rock this outfit I found at the Target sale rack.

Since that month I had been working "harder than usual" at the gym I decided to just go for it and show a little fatness.
 I paired this outfit with this shoes I recently purchase that are super comfortable and the denim detail is life!!

This bold and dynamic outfit was perfect for out outing at El Mercado.

Straw purses were so in, this summer, again, if you visit Mexico you can see people make them at the shops.

When I saw this purse I was in love, and had to buy it!!

Best thing about the purse it was only $20.00

Merry Independence day to all my Mexican people!

If you didn't know I was born in Mexico City, and today Septemeber 16

we celebrate our Independence day.

Growing up I remember my parents taking us to El Centro (historic center of Mexico, City) almost each year to celebrate independence day.
Now this is an actual holiday we celebrate and not 5 De Mayo! 

Tons, and tons of people gather at El Centro to celebrate our Independence day and El Grito De Dndependencia (cry of independence) which is something like

VIVA MEXICO!

Inspired by the day I wanted to create a look that will show my patriotic side as a Mexican chica born in Mexico City.

Here's the look that I came up with, enjoy!

Love Always,

BEAUTY: COLOURPOP x ILUVSARAHII: MAMACITA

#HolaQueens

If you don't know by now I have been into burgundy colors a lot since last fall, even during summer time.

I have purchased quite a few, well technically a lot of dark lipsticks like if I don't own at least one.

 When I purchase them, I usually feel a sense of regret but than I'm like no, they aren't all the same shade.

Iluvsarahii is one of my favorite make up beauty gurus.

When I found out she collaborated with Colourpop I was excited, and wanted to see the products she came out with.

She's a true make up maven, with quite a variety of make up looks.

When her collection launched, she had a great variety of colors, from nudes to dark colors.

Honestly I did not purchased any eye shadow pallets from her collection because I have a lot of colors similar in other make up palettes.

She came out with two palettes, one on the neutral side, and one that focused more on the deep purples and corals, which I am kind of scared to play with those colors.

I decided to just purchase the ultra matte lipstick in the color MAMACITA

As mentioned earlier, there has been something about deep dark burgundy lipstick colors, so I decided to just pick the Mamacita lipstick from her collection.

I honestly thought it was going to bee a bit more on the deep side, but it's more on the redish side. 

Skin color play it big when it comes to dark lipstick colors, so that might be one of the factors with me.

Here's a make up look I created using my MAMACITA ultra matte lipstick.

For the eyes you know most of the time I will keep it safe with my neutral colors.

For the face I decided to go with a little bit of blush and a bronzy bronzer.

and to kill the make up look, you know that for me a statement lip color is my thaaaang which Mamacita came into place to complete the look.

Did you guys get anything from her collection?
If so what was your favorite product from her collab?

I'd like to know!

Love Always,
