Beyonce for the Super Bowl

Have you heard this news?
OMG this is sooo amazing !!! She's a great choice for this show, I mean, how many millions of people will be watching it!!  I remember how excited I was to see Madonna this year, I still get chills when I see her performance, it was the greatest, Madonna is definetly the queen.

Let's see how Beyonce pulls this off, it will definetly be quite a show, she's known for this and one of my goals for next year is go to a Beyonce concert ( fingers crossed on a tour! )

Here are some of my favorite songs by Beyence!!

If you like it then should have put a ring on it!
This is the best coreography I have ever seen, makes my jaw drop!
''Single Ladies (Put a ring on it)''
 
 
''Crazy in Love''
The song that made her jump to solo stardom and meet her hubby.
 
I didn't remember Usher was on this vid!
''Naughty Girl''
 
 
This was my anthem a few years back...Great lyrics and song!
''Irreplaceable''
 
Just so we don't forget, here is Madonna's performance from this year.  Breathtaking.

Motivational Wednesday

Hello everybody!
Today is Wednesday and I thought of some motivation for the week...We all have some hard weeks and mine has been this one...So, I think that if life is giving you lemons then you have to make lemonade and therefore, a post about it :)

Not all quotes are motivational, some are funny but hey, laughter lifts your spirit and with our high spirit anything is possible.

Have a great rest of the week!!

I loved this one! This is so true, am I getting old that everyone around is doing this exact same thing? I mean, come one, let's live more..or maybe, I'm not just there yet..who knows..
 
 
Now this woman has some balls, I think it's amazing to live by this. We always think too much about other people, and maybe they don't even think about us at all, so, do what you just wanna do and you'll start living.
 
Now this is truly inspirational, you gotta cut the crap and forget your fears.  Eassier said than done, but we gotta get there someday!
 
This one is very important, have you found that thing that makes you really happy?
Most people get stuck in that job that pays the bills...but we have to find that job that doesn't feel like a job.  We only live once, we might as well live it happily.
 
 On the fun side...here is a b*tchy one..don't tell me you haven't thought this once in your life?!
 
 
This one is good...People expect to see you fall...But you're strong enough keep going and prove everyone they're F wrong.
 
Ha! Don't waste your time with someone else's crap.  Life is just one and you gotta spend it with the people that really matters.
 
 
 
Hope this motivates you and even makes you laugh. See ya!!

Get me some Leopard !

Hello everybody !

Recently I have been seeing many leopard prints, it's no secret that it has been going on for over a year now and it looks like it is staying  ( yey ! ), I looove animal print, I think it's very sophisticated and when you wear a piece that has this print it just changes your outfit completely, you don't need too many accessories when you have the print going on.

I've been dying to get leopard flats and also a leopard clutch but I haven't found any of them ! So, once I do, I will be posting on that and let's hope it's going to be soon !

Here is some of my leopard wishes at the moment, I wouldn't get mad if I found anything like this where I live :)



Lucky you that lives in USA, the one at the top right is from Charlotte Russe :)
In the middle left : are $120  from heels.com and the ones in the right are Jimmy Choo $395!
Bottom left are Steve Madden.  Bottom right are from Nine West.
 
 
Now these are some really cool Clutches !
The one in the middle right is from Tory Burch, it's very cute!
The ones in the bottom are just a little more expensive..mhm.. Left: Yves Saint Laurent and Right: Christian Louboutin ( We can daydream abou this ;) )
 
 
Hope you like my picks !
 
Xo,

Baby pink and Blue

Hello everybody !

Today I wanted to post an outfit I created for myself.  It is a combination of a skinny baby pink jeans and the most confortable top I have purchased so far, which is blue.  Combined they are a great match, you have all the sweetness going on in the bottom and you stamp the strong element with a dark tone blouse.



Here it is, I used it for a brunch I got invited and got some compliments :).
It is ideal for a casual day, you know, brunch, lunch or coffee in the afternoon or whatever it is casual for you :).
BTW, the top is from Pull & Bear.
 
 
Wedges are from Nine West
 
I bought this necklace some time ago in a local store.
I loved the combination of all the colors.
 
I found this skinny jeans at Stradivarius.  I really wanted a different tone jeans other that BLUE JEANS, getting bored of those...Unfortunately, I haven't found so many colored skinnies, but still looking for them !
 
 
Hope you like it !!

DIY: Untangle that necklace

Hi everybody !
This is the story about a necklace I bought a year ago in a trip to Miami, it was supossed to be like a golden/silver braid, beautiful necklace when I bought it.  Well, to make a long story short, when I came back to El Salvador, it was all tangled ( from the packing, the trip, etc ), so tangled that I couldn't wear it and so I decided to put it away and fix it SOMEDAY...

Well, that SOMEDAY arrived last weekend haha after a year I decided to fix this necklace and it came in such a good time because I needed that combination since I'm lacking of silver necklaces ( I'm way in to gold tones lately ), so here are the pics and an idea for you and case you have once of these cases.. :)

This is the braid I was talking about... not so beautiful after all..
 
Such a mess..
 
It was supossed to look like this all over the necklace..
 
So, what I did is separate the 3 sets of  gold/silver 'lace' , just grab a tweezer and open the clamps.
 
Once the 'laces' are in order, just grab the tips in one clamp on each side.
 
 
And tada ! here is the new necklace ! It became kind of a statement necklace.
I'm thinking about pairing it with a black button blouse I just bought :).
 
 
It's never too late to do something or fix something you already have, believe me, once you do, you will feel like you have something new and pretty :)

The weekend mani

Hi everybody!!

This week has passed soo fast, it has been crazy!
I started my diet and so far it has been good, although I went to Starbucks and well, you can't drink water there!! So.. I ordered the vanilla latte with no sugar on the vanilla and splenda, it's delicious and a great option for your waist line :)



Now that we are actually in the weekend, it is always a good time to get our nails done, isn't? With all the craziness of the week there's just not enought time to do this right except for changing the nail color.

Since It's been raining, I decided to go for the dark colors, this one is from OPI.

Uh-Oh Roll Down the Window.
It's from the America tour collection.
You might be thinking this is last season, but I don't have any sisters to share nail polish and I have so many that they last a looong time !



By the way, I am thinking on trying new nail art, simple since I'm not so good at drawing and all that, any suggestions?

Happy tangerine

Hello ! How is this week going so far?
I have decided to start dieting tomorrow...maybe I'm still on time to achieve that weight loss goal we all set at the beginning of the year ( every year ! ).
 
Talking about colors and fashion, I liked a trend that I spotted in last Sunday's Emmy Awards and it is the fact that many actresses wore tangerine ! don't you just love this color? I love it on my nails like I wore it for my last post about bangles here but I think it also looks beautiful in clothes.
 
Below is some inspiration from the stars: 
 
 
 
Padma Lakshimi from Top Chef. Monique L'huillier.
How does she stay thin working on that show?!
 

Lindy Pulsipher from True blood.
 
 
Nancy O'Dell from Entertainment Tonight. I love this ombre style dress.
 
 
Cat Deeley - from So you Think You Can Dance. Tadashi Shoji gown.
 
 
What do you think of this color? Do you think it suits everyone? I think it's really pretty and it can give a pop of color to the outfits.
 
Here are my pics for tangerine accessories as well as clothes !! I'm in love with this color, next shopping mission will be buying some TANGERINE ! ;)
 
 
 
 
It's good to open our minds to new dress colors and step out a little from the neutrals. Here is my inspiration for tangerine dresses :

Love Bangles

Hello ! How was your weekend? Hope it was great !

I decided to go do some shopping over the weekend and found some insane bangles, I fell in love the minute I saw them.  Colors are black and gold and  the set has 4 bangles, the thing I loved the most is that it includes one with spikes which are so trending right now.

When I wear bangles, I try to keep it a little low key with the necklace since I want all the attention to be in my embellished wrist :)  Hope you like them: P.S: they's from Pull & Bear.


 
Wear them altogether to make a statement.

Love the black and gold combination.

Gorgeous and Elegant.
 
You can combine 2 of them or 3 or wear just 1 of them, it will still look great !

Say Hello to Yellow !

Hello ! How was your first day of the week? Hope it was nice !

Yesterday at the Emmy's, we spotted some trends and among them we will talk about the yellow one. Many actresses decided to wear this tone and I think it's amazing.  Yellow gives life and makes you stand out so much.  I think it is a color that a lot of people is afraid of but if you mix it right, it can't go wrong.  Besides, yellow is an elegant color, so you will definetly look glamorous and up to date.

Here is the yellow inspiration from the Emmys:



Claire Danes from Homeland. Wearing a bright yellow gown by Lanvin.
He made a pregnant women look confortable and so chic. She really took a risk with this color, most pregnant actresses wear neutral/dark colors for these types of events.

Leslie Mann - Naeem Khan gown. This dress looks like so much fun, you can tell she is having a good time wearing it.  Love the pockets, very helpfull.

Jualianne Moore - Dior haute couture. I love the color but I don't love the top. I think her breasts look weird, like way too pressed down, maybe with a different cleveage it would have looked more fresh.

Julie Bowen - Monique L'Huillier. I love this dress, she looks stunning and so radiant, but hey, who wouldn't be radiant after winning an Emmy?!?!
 
Hannah Simone - from new girl. Wearing Emilio Pucci. 
This dress is really cute, very flowy and relaxed. 
 
Kaley Couco wearing an Angel suarez dress. The dress is nice, a little too long for her though.
Hair and make up...could have been a lot better, she looks kinda tacky...sorry.


Giving this trend, I have pulled 3 outfits very different but following the yellow dress style:


This outfit mixes all bright colors so we get colorblocking.  The blazer gives it a more casual look and the clutch, OMG the bright PINK clutch is the one that will make heads turn to you ! finish the look with some nude pumps.
 
 
This one is for the night out, you know, when you go out with your friends have a good time and you just wanna look hot yet classy.  I love this dress because it doesn't reveal too much, it just hugs you in the right places.   Tone it down with the gray tones on your shoes and give it a little twist with your red clutch.
 
I really love this outfit. The dress is so cute, it is perfect for an afternoon out or a casual dinner.  Love the camel tones ( obsessed with it ) and how crazy are those leopard flats? To die for ! spice it up with the bright blue earring and you're good to go !
 
 


 
 
 


Emmy's Fashion Spotting

Did you watch the Emmy's yesterday? Did your favourite series win? Mine did ! Modern Family, of course ! I'm so happy that Eric Stonestreet ( Cameron ) and Julie Bowen ( Claire ) won and also the series won for Outstanding Comedy Series. If you haven't seen this show, you have to, it's a must, I'm crazy about it, everytime I wanna laugh my you know what off I watch this, it's hilarious !!

So, talking fashion, I loved Sofía Vergara´s dress, I love her  ( The way she plays Gloria is the best - From Modern Family ), she is latin and so am I, so we have to support our latin talent. 

Below is a list of the dresses I totally loved, I bet you have a list like this too ! So let´s talk fashion!


Sofía Vergara wearing Zunair Murad and Neil Lane jewels. Just a simple gown and jewels..yeah right. Gorgeous!
 
Jane Levy - from Suburgatory ! When I saw this I didn´t even imagine it was her ! so different on TV, right? Love the color, looks great with the hair ! Gotta love electric blue, makes you stand out.
 
Ms. Kelly Osbourne - wearing a taffeta gown by Zac Posen. She is looking the best ever !
 
Claire Danes from Homeland, who BTW won an Emmy ! Gorgeous design for a pregnant woman with plenty of room for some extra growth or eating, I should get one like that..hmm.
 
 
Julia Louis-Dreyfus.  This woman has an insane body! I wanna be like her when a grow up even more ! Wearing Vera Wang.
 
 
Brooke Burke - I remember her when she was on Wild On on E!. Beautiful dress, I also wanna be like her when I grow up, although a body like that right now wouldn´t hurt me either!
 
The funny Julie Bowen who took home an Emmy for being Claire on Modern Family. Wearing Monique L´Huillier. GORGEOUS ! 
 
 
So now is the ' I don't what to think abou this ' list... tell me what you think about my picks:
 
 
Hayden Panettiere wearing Marchesa... I think she is too short for this dress. Nicole Kidman could have pulled this off !
 
Emily VanCamp in a J. Mendel gown - Beautiful dress but not so beautiful color and make up, she is pretty and I think she could have done better, maybe a different dress color?
 
Ginnifer Goodwin - Another actress from one of my other favourite shows: Once Upon a Time.
The dress looked red on TV and I think it looks a little heavy but loved the color !
 
Kat Dennings - Our lovely sarcastic Max from Two Broke Girls.
That thing in the belly looks a little unecessary to me..What do you think?
 
Kristen Wiig - What happened to her?, Did she get invited on the same day and didn´t have the time to look for a dress or go to hair and make up?
 
Kaley Couco in Angel Sanchez gown. Terrible hair and make up, I like the dress though.
 
 
 
Well this sums up my Sunday night, lots of new fashion to watch and I already spotted some trends that I'll be posting these days. 
 
 
Hey, don't forget to watch Modern Family ( I'm gonna start charging them for this free publicity hehe ) you are going to LOVE and LAUGH like you never have in your life.
 
 
Have a great week!!!
