7 WAYS TO WEAR SNEAKERS!

Hello everyone,

In today's post "let your sneakers be your wings," I show you that comfort can be just as fashionable. More so, if your feet are looking for a break (mine totally are), leave your heels to the side. 👠 

This week we'll make comfort and style our priority! Not only can you run to catch the train in your sneakers, but you can feel wonderful after a long day on your feet. I can't say the same about heels even though they're dear to my heart. More than a few times, I recall, I had to run in my heels and let me tell you... it wasn't a pretty sight. Also, when taking them off, more often than not, I've got blisters all over. Am I lucky or what?😂     


What I love the MOST is that as the seasons roll on by, adding an awesome pair of sneakers has become so trendy. I constantly notice it. A cool streetwear outfit with these type of shoes turns heads just as heels do. And the ways to style them are endless!!! Are you ready for this trainers lookbook? We're going easy, casual and sweet. Sweet because I love milk chocolate! hahaha

I never thought that sneakers could be fashionable and bring flavor and character to what I'm wearing. I've been playing sports throughout my whole childhood and adolescent life. Sneakers were shoes that helped me run faster and made me feel comfortable. I never matched them to my gym shorts and t-shirt. I just threw on the first pair I spotted. Plus, I was a total tomboy. I didn't even know about mascara until I went to my senior prom. Yes, I am dead serious.

Then, I grew up. Slowly, I found my feminine side. Actually, when I think about it, starting this blog really inspired me to explore fashion and beauty. I had no idea what I was doing at first. Looking back at my first posts, you can see how I was still trying to figure out my style, what fashion meant to me and what role it played in my life. Today, I feel more in tune with myself and the woman I've become. 

To many, fashion could be a very superficial subject, but from experience, I can say that it is a form of art, a form of self-expression. It has hidden powers. It can make you feel strong and confident, fun and flirtatious, cute and sweet. And when you think about it, you are all of these things. It's not "a costume" that you put on to hide who you are. You actually are all of these things. The fun part is that you get to bring out some aspects of your personality more than others whenever you choose. You are in control. 

Anyways, we were talking about sneakers...I'm totally in love with this trend. Surprisingly, sneakers go with everything, not just my high school basketball uniform. They are playful and casual, comfortable and sassy. One thing is for sure. I never thought I would be wearing sneakers with a skirt.

I think that one advice I would give to you guys is to try out the fashionable trends that spark your interest. Don't be afraid just because you don't think you can pull it off. How would you know anyway? Try it. Give it a chance. See how you feel. And most importantly, love yourself. :)

RED LOVE!

Hello everyone,

Guess what? It didn't take long before getting bit by the RED fashion bug again. I really tried staying away from posting any red outfits on here because last year there were plenty - from tips on ways to wear the MOST romantic color ever to matching my red attire with the stunning Red Rocks we're so fortunate to have here in Las Vegas.💓 

Plus, many of you have said that this is "my color" and I should wear it more often, so I'm more than happy to follow your orders.😉 Good thing there's never a dull moment with this fiery pigment as I always seem to find a way to create various looks. Some edgy, others chic! And overall most of them romantic because red just has that power. I think mainly for this reason, I enjoy monochromatic red outfits. Fully stepping into this hue, which often, a lot of people shy away from. All I'm saying is...don't be SHY!😘

You know what's interesting? On International Women's Day, I went to a girls party and noticed so many of us wore red including me (without planning it). It got me thinking how majestic this color is - completely lets you embrace your feminine side and feels like you've stepped into a "power suit". 

      
With spring peaking around the corner, I simply reach for pieces that easily help me transition into the new season. This idea brought me to my knit skirt... a must-have wardrobe staple. It can be styled with a cute graphic tee or a cozy sweater. All it takes is you knowing the forecast in your city. It will save you the time of debating what to wear.  

Most often I go straight for my heels, but with this red look I wanted to make it more street-style with some sneakers and cool accessories. I like these stylish, yet effortless vibes! Something you can accomplish with a lot of your wardrobe staples by adding a comfy pair of sneakers; vans, adidas... really any brand you love! 

    

Who's excited for spring? Would you like to see some spring festival looks? 

I recently read that Coachella won't be happening in April 2020 as it usually does... it's postponed to October 2020 because of the coronavirus. However, if you still want me to create boho-chic desert looks, I would LOVE to! Just let me know!!!

SPRING VACATION: WHAT TO PACK!

Hello everyone,

Set the alarm to "snooze vacay" because it's time for a VACATION!!! Spring is nearing, so is our desire to go off somewhere tropical and enjoy a few days, even weeks of sunshine. Straight away I think of Mexico because it has been my favorite destination from the minute I visited Cabo San Lucas a few years ago. I can't describe it in words...so MAGICAL, plus there, I feel at home. What's your soul-free top travel destination?

If you're already packing or booking your spring break trip right now, I'm here to help your packing journey be a little smoother. I've got a checklist for you and a few...ok, scratch that, a LOT of cute clothing items you should bring with you to make your vacation extra colorful and adventurous. Sounds good?🌴 

You know what's even better? Having a birthday in spring. This way you can take your birthday to the beach...How Funnnnn! Just giving you a few ideas because birthdays and vacations look good together.😉  

In need of a vacation experience that is beyond your ordinary resort? Just steps away from your favorite water parks and lots more, Orlando is the destination for you and your family. There is so much to check-out the minute you check-in, so pack your bags and see you on the sunny side. Let the adventure begin!!!       

Now let me introduce you to my ideal vacation must-pack items:

~ Straw Hat

~ Denim Shorts

~ Midi Skirt 

~ Sunglasses 

~ Flip-Flops

~ Seashell Choker 

~ Sunscreen 

~ Casual Tee

~ Beach Towel 

~ Beach Bag

~ Wedge Espadrilles 

~ One-Piece Bathing Suit 

~ Linen Loose Pants 

~ Cami Top 

~ Beach Cover-Up 

~ Crop Top 

~ Evening Midi Dress

~ Puff Sleeves Crop Top 

~ Sneakers 

~ Evening Romper 

~ Denim Shirt Dress 

~ Lightweight Denim Jeans 

~ Two-Piece Swimsuit 

~ Mini Skirt 

~ Two- Piece Set

~ Earrings 

~ Denim Jacket 

~ Evening Bag 

It really depends on how many days you'll be vacationing for, but this here is what I would bring to, let's say, a 5 to 7 days trip. If I'm going somewhere for the weekend for 3 days, I would cut this list into half and only bring one item of each and even leave a few behind. There's no need to carry much if you're doing spring break on the fast-lane!

When planning a beach vacation most likely you'll be spending your time at the beach, so sunscreen, swimsuits, beach towel, sunglasses and a beach cover-up are the first things you'll probably pack right away. However, it's good to have a few evening items for dinner like a more elegant romper, a midi dress or a cute flirty two-piece set in which you can show off your tan. I would also add one denim jacket for these nights in case it gets chilly because it would literally go with anything you decide to wear.  

When it comes to shoes, here's what I suggest. You'll need flip-flops for the beach, of course. One pair of black wedges for dinner and a pair of sneakers in case you're planning to have a whole day of exploring or maybe hitting up a cool hike trail. You might be tempted to want to pack your whole shoe collection, since we girls believe we need a different pair of shoes for every occasion, but trust me these three pairs are completely enough.   

     

What do you think? Did this make things easier for your upcoming spring vacation? If I missed anything, let me know!

Happy March and I'll talk to you again next Tuesday! 💗
