Hair Inspirations

It took me over ten years to finally grow out my layers and now that it's all one length, I feel my hair is too plain. I've been thinking of ways to cut it but haven't come to a conclusion yet. These are some of my inspirations for a possible new haircut.

Me tardo mas de diez años para por fin tener el cabello parejo y sin capas, pero ahora que esta tan parejo siento que le hace falta algo. He estado pensando en cortes diferentes pero aun no me decido por nada. Estos son algunos estilos que me inspiran a un nuevo corte.

Snow Days

I'm back! It's been over a month in which I have not posted anything (I know, it's terrible) but it was a very busy month in which I was preparing to graduate and now I can proudly say that I am a graduate! From now on I have no excuse to not post at least twice a week so expect to see new biweekly posts.

Yesterday we awoke to a snow covered city here in Texas and today was a continuum. I loved waking up to the unexpected snow, especially during this holiday time.

Ya regrese! Llevo mas de un mes sin subir fotos (super mal, lo se) pero fue un mes en el que estuve super ocupada preparando lo de mi graduacion y ahora puedo decir que soy toda una profesionista! De ahora en adelante no tengo excusa si no subo fotos por lo menos dos veces por semana asi que ahora esperen ver posts mucho mas seguido.

Ayer amanecimos con la cuidad cubierta de nieve y hoy fue una continuacion. Me encanto haber amaneceido con la nieve inesperada, especialmente durante esta temporada de fiestas.

Make-Up

I've recently switched to using Bobbi Brown make-up and I have to say I'm really liking it. I had previously used her lipgloss and a few products here and there but now I am using her foundation, powder, cream blush, gel eyeliner, and lipsticks too. Her products feel very fresh and lightweight and they last all day. I especially like her Extra line since I suffer of dry skin. 

Recientemente empeze a utilisar el maquillaje de Bobbi Brown y la verdad me esta gustando mucho. Antes habia utilisado algunos brillos para los labios o uno que otro producto, pero ahora estoy usando la base, el polvo, el rubor cremoso, delineador de gel, y los lipsticks. Sus productos son muy frescos y ligeros y aparte duran todo el dia. Me encanta la linea Extra ya que sufro de piel seca.


EXTRA Repair Foundation with SPF 25. It's important to wear sunblock under make-up or at least make-up with an SPF everyday.

I'm also a big fan of M.A.C lipsticks. These are my most often used lip tints.

Mexico!

I'm so excited because this weekend I will be going to beautiful Mexico city for a wedding. Jl's cousin is getting married and there was no way we were going to miss the wedding. I'm still trying to figure out what to pack without over packing, but that's very hard for me to do. So far I'm taking four pairs of shoes for three days so let's hope it stays there.

Estoy super emocionada porque este fin ire a Mexico lindo y querido para una boda. El primo de Jl se casa y por ninguna razon nos ibamos a perder de la boda. Aun sigo viendo que me voy a llevar sin llevar de mas pero es muy dificil! Hasta ahorita llevo cuatro pares de zapatos para tres dias asi que espero que no pase de ahi.

This past Friday I attended the Carità Fashion Fest 2011 which was held in order to collect funds for Teleton 2011. Collections by Fasha (boutique), local fashion designer Mariana Cantu, and Mexican fashion designer, Kris Goyri, whom was brought from Mexico City, were modeled to the public. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take any pictures for Fasha or Mariana Cantu's collections since I was working backstage, but I have to say that all three shows were amazing.

El viernes atendi al evento de Carità Fashion Fest 2011 para recaudar fondos al Teleton. Fueron modeladas las colecciones de Fasha (boutique), diseñadora local Mariana Cantu, y el diseñador Kris Goyri que fue traido desde Mexico D.F. Desafortunadamente no pude tomar fotos de las colecciones de Fasha ni de Maraia Cantu devido que estuve trabajando backstage, pero si puedo decir que los tres shows estuvieron fascinantes.

One of two photos I was able to take from Mariana Cantu's collection.


I love the checkered detail on the back of this dress.

This was the first outfit modeled from Kris Goyri's collection.

I wore a Forever 21 lace top and satin pencil skirt, necklace from Fasha, and glitter embellished pumps by Jennifer Lopez.

Polka Dots In the Desert

I live in the city but it's a dry, desert city on which houses have been built and a population has grown. Yesterday I was able to catch the sunset right before it went down and we took a few shots of the desert area and this polka dot ensemble I threw on.

Vivo en una cuidad que ha sido construida sobre el desierto. Ayer tuve suerte de alcanzar antes de que se bajara el sol y pude tomar algunas fotos del desierto y este conjunto de puntitos.

New Look

For a while now I have been wanting a new look, so last week I finally decided to go for bangs. I think bangs can give an edgy chic look and I really like having them during the fall/wintertime when it's not so hot. 

Por un tiempo tenia ganas de un nuevo look asi que por fin la semana pasada me decidi por el fleco. Pienso que el fleco da un look chic y moderno. Me gusta traerlo durante el otoño/invierno ya que no hace tanto calor.
