Outfit Idea: My First White Coat - Primer Abrigo Blanco

"El blanco no es una mera ausencia del color ; es una cosa brillante y positiva, tan feroz como el rojo, tan definido como el negro . Dios pinta en muchos colores; pero nunca pinta tan magníficamente, casi diría que de manera llamativamente, como cuando pinta en blanco. "

~ G.K. Chesterton

“White is not a mere absence of color; it is a shining and affirmative thing, as fierce as red, as definite as black. God paints in many colors; but He never paints so gorgeously, I had almost said so gaudily, as when He paints in white. ” 

~ G.K. Chesterton

Feliz fin de semana hermosas! Este es el primer look de mi nueva adquisicion, abrigo blanco. Siempre quise tener uno de ellos pero la razon que me paro de comprarlo es que se ensucian rapido. Hay un decir en las calles "El Blanco es Sucio", porque se ensucia rapido obvio. Pero aunque eso sea un factor, creo que deberiamos darnos el gusto de tener una pieza invernal blanca en nuestros closets. Hay que ser muy cuidadosos y si se llega a perder el blanquito, no te preocupes que tambien puedes vestir una pieza "blanquecino" jiji

Happy Weekend Dolls! This is my first look for my new aquisition (White Coat). I have always wanted to have a white coat, but what stopped me was that they get dirty very fast. There is a spanish proverb, that goes "White is always dirty", because anything white shows up even the tiniest spec of dirt. Even though this is true,  we shouldnt hesitate to satisfy our thirst for a white garment. We just need to be very careful taking care of them. Even after, you can always rock it as a Dirty White piece lol!

Vegan Dish :: Spicy Olive Pasta

One of my goals this year is to maintain a healthier diet. This meal experiment is my first attempt and I think it came out really well.

Here's  a healthy and vegan dish I threw together.

1.  Choose your favorite pasta
2.  While the water for the pasta is boiling start cutting your vegetables
3.  I quickly sauteed some garlic and onions
4. Then I added the olives (the theme flavor)
5. Then I added the bell pepper
6. And finally the brussel sprouts, rosemary and Scotch Bonnet pepper (the three strongest flavors)
7. I added the drained/cooked pasta to the wok and mixed everything well 

*The only spice I used was salt (and the rosemary)

Don't dismiss your resources, I made this with the remaining uncooked vegetables from other meals I made this week.

Thank you so much for reading, 

I hope you like it.

Feliz Año Nuevo!!!! Como lo estan pasando estos primeros dias del 2015. Por lo visto llegamos desilusionados ya que no tenemos patinetas voladoras, o pizzas deshidratadas, autos que vuelan, ropa que se autoseque, pero al menos tenemos TV pantallas planas ;)

Y ahora hablando del atuendo: A que no saben, este es mi primero vestido rojo!!!! Te imaginas? Asi es, es mi primer vestido rojo. Creo que toda mujer deberia de tener al menos uno. Ahora tengo en mi lista tener otro que lo pueda vestir en la vida diaria (como para salir con mi esposo <3 )

Lo combine con tacones de color piel, abrigo camel y carterita negra. Esos colores siempre se ven lindos juntos. Use un abrigo grande ya que esa noche hacia mucho frio. Quizas este look se hubiera visto mas lindo si vestia abrigo negro o mas corto, pero opte por este ya que me abrigaba mejor. Oh! Era una fiesta de mascaras, y esta la compre en Etsy.com. 

*Chequea aqui como vesti este abrigo Celebracion de Fin de Año anterior*

Happy New Year!!! How is your year so far? As we can see we meet this year a bit disappointed because we don't have any flying cars, hover boards, dehydrated pizzas, or self drying clothes, but we do have flat screen TVs ;)

And now about the look: Can you believe this is my first ever red dress!!! Yeah, that's right. I believe every woman should own at least one. I think I'm going to get a second one so that I can use it for everyday life or to go out with my husband.

I styled it with nude high heels, camel coat and black studded clutch. Those colors look good together. I went for this coat since it was bigger and kept me warm, though I think it would have looked better with a black coat. What do you think?. Oh! and about the masquarade, that was the theme for the holiday party. I got it at Etsy.com.

*Check out how I wore this coat for the previous year's holiday party, here*

Animate a poner juntos esos zapatos delicados/sexy con una cartera que tenga caracteristicas duras, como esta carterita que tiene tachuelas/craneo y cuero negro o cuerina. Agregar un toque de imbalance puede ser sofisticado.

____________________

Pair those delicate/sexy heels with a bag that has strong feautures like studs/spikes/skulls/black leather. Adding a touch of "unbalance" can be sophisticated.

Holiday Inspired Outfit:: Green Ponte Dress

Another Outfit Idea Inspired by Christmas  here

Hola hermosas! Como pasaron la Navidad? Espero que muy lindo. 

Aqui les comparto el look que vesti en casita y tambien algunas fotitos de la decoracion que agregue. La fotito del arbolito de arriba es al antes y las de abajo del despues de abrir los regalos. Me encanta decorar el arbolito de Navidad y se ve que el color verde y rojo quedo bien impregnado en mi mente ya que el unico color combo que quise vestir fue verde y rojo (las uñas y lapiz de labios). Toques de leopardo por medio de los zapatos (siempre se ven lindos el verde y leopardo). Espero les guste y que sigan disfrutando de estos ultimos dias del 2014. Les deseo lo mejor para el 2015, Dios las bendiga <3

Hi beauties! How was your Christmas? I hope you had a beautiful time.

I thought about sharing the look I wore and some pics of the decorations. A photo of the Christmas tree from before opening the gifts and the center piece of my dining table. I enjoyed decorating my Christmas tree and I think the color palette stayed in my mind because the only color combo I wanted to wear was green and red (red nails & lipstick). I added a touch of leopard through the pumps. I think green always looks great with leopard print. I hope you like this idea. Continue to enjoy these last days of 2014. I wish you the best for 2015, and may God bless you all <3

Hola hermosas! Como les va estos dias? Haciendo las ultimas compras, regalos para la familia?. Creo que he ido mas al shopping center en estos dias que en todo el año. Desde comprando cositas para decorar y regalos para la familia y amigos. Este es uno de mis looks bien casuales pero abrigaditos que vesti. 

Creo que esta es la primera vez que tomo fotos oficiales a esta bufanda, la estoy usando un monton ya que es bien abrigadita. 10 puntos para ZARA por un muy buen y beneficioso accesorio <3

Hi beauties! How are you doing? Have you finished buying presents for your loved ones?. I think I've gone to the mall more these days than during the whole year. Walking around and up and down alot! This is a comfy, casual, and warm outfit I chose to wear. I've been using this blanket scarf a lot and I think this is the first time I took oficial pics of it. Two thumbs up to ZARA for such a great, very useful accessory ;)
