Thank You!

Hey beauties! I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving weekend & stuffed your bellies! I got to spend the holiday at home with lots of my family. I look back at Thanksgiving last year and I can't believe how many memories I have made since then. Im thankful to have experienced all that I have this past year. I plan to keep working hard and making even more amazing memories this upcoming year. What are you guys thankful for?

 Unfortunately, the day after I had to work a long shift for Black Friday, & if you're wondering.... no I didn't get to purchase anything. I know, I'm heartbroken too. LOL. Between school, my social life, and driving from job to job I'm surprised I even had the chance to write this post. Im so glad the semester is coming to an end! 

Thank you to all you beautiful people who check out my content and support me! I appreciate every single one of you!

Denim DIY

Hey beauties! This post was long overdue, but school has been consuming my life. I DIY'ed this denim jacket about a month ago and I love how it turned out. All the patches were purchased off of Amazon for less than $20. It was surprisingly very easy to put together. Denim jackets have been trending for some time now and I decided to make it a DIY and save the $45-$50 they charge for these at the stores. My dress and my sandals were a total of $8 from Forever21. I hope I inspired you all to save your money! I've never been the type to splurge all my money on material things, so when I can think of a way to save a couple dollars I'm all for it!

This was my take on a denim daytime outfit, but keep your eyes open... there might just be a nighttime look in the works!

Cupcakes & Chill

October has arrived witches!

What's better than bringing in the spooky season with some extremely delicious cupcakes?!?

If you live in the Miami area and are looking to try some of these sweet treats or want to order some cupcakes for an event, check out SweetsbyPatty! She was nice enough to make me some cupcakes and they were amazing. She currently has 3 new fall flavors:

Pumpkin Pecan

Pumpkin Spice w. Cream Cheese Frosting

Graham Cracker w. Buttercream Frosting (MY FAV!)

All of her cupcakes are $2 a piece and she also does designing.

Cupcake flavor varieties are listed on her Instagram @sweetsbypatty

I spent my Sunday afternoon cuddled up in my super cute Halloween blanket and socks while watching horror films. Also, who's been watching the new season of AHS? I have mixed feelings on it so far but Im still addicted. 

Thanks again for the delicious cupcakes Patty!

Patience is a Virtue

Hey beauties! Here I have my outfit from Sunday evening at Dr.Limon Ceviche Resaurant here in Miami. The dinner was in celebration of my sister-in-law's Bachelor's degree in Dietetics and Nutrition. All those years and late nights studying together while eating spicy chips and watching Bachelor in Paradise finally paid off! LOL Alot of patience was needed to get through all the years it took her to get to where she is now. Patience. Something that hit me this weekend. Unfortunately, I lost my uncle this past Saturday. The same day I lost my great-grandmother 4 years ago. Now they are keeping each other company and watching over me.

At his viewing, patience was brought up. My uncle was a fisherman all his life and being a fisherman requires an abundance amount of patience. Whenever you feel like giving up, have patience. Whenever you feel the lowest of lows, have patience. It really stuck with me and for him I will work on my patience. Whenever it feels like nothing is going right in my life, I will remember him and have patience. Whenever it seems like you cant get it right, I want you to have patience. It what you want feels so out of reach or so much of a stretch, have patience.

Querido tío, para ti siempre tendré paciencia. Gracias por todo lo que hiciste. Envíe saludos a Abuela. ¡Los extraño los dos!
