The new collection from adidas x Universal Standard claimed to have pieces that felt like a second skin and moved with you and I was definitely looking forward to putting that to the test.…
As a creator, I get a lot of skincare products to test out and share with you guys. I’ve shared some of my faves on my Instagram and gave you all my honest opinion. But let’s be real, most creators are not dermatologist. We can tell you that one particular eye cream we prefer over another because of consistency or how we wake up the next morning, but we’re hardly qualified to give you the real professional long-term effects. I…
I travel a lot. In the last five months alone I’ve been to four different countries and 15 different cities around the world. One thing I’ve learned, is that planning ahead can make a huge difference between a good trip and a great trip, and this includes packing correctly. But who has time to itemize their suitcase? Not only do I travel, but I still have a full-time job and my blog is an official LLC so I’m a business…
Since I joined Equinox, I started to want more out of things. My fitness club gave me everything I wanted (and things I didn’t even know I needed, like Kiehls products and a spa), so why shouldn’t other aspects of my life. I wanted to eat better and have the food that goes in my body give me more nutrients than it did before. I wanted quality investment pieces in my wardrobe so I get more wear out of my…
This year I really struggled with what I wanted to do to bring in the new year. It was a toss between celebrating and sleeping and up until 9:00 that morning, sleeping was in the lead. Then I remembered we had friends and I had this incredible Halston dress so we got a reservation at Fish by Jose Andrés in the MGM National Harbor. Fish was having a New Year’s Eve Gala with five courses, live music, fireworks and a champagne toast…
Before I met Dr. Naz, I decided I needed to stop smiling in 2019 to prevent wrinkles. I had been to other plastic surgeons for fillers and had a mixed bag of results – some fillers worked great and other I felt like I spent a lot of money for no visible result. Dr. Naz literally saved my smile and made me feel comfortable in my own skin without the “overdone” look. Let me start by saying she didn’t ask…
Santorini was my Mom and my favorite island we visited during our Greece trip. It’s known for having one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world and is a 2 and 1/2 hour hydrofoil ride from Mykonos port. To help you discover the secrets of Santorini for yourself, I put together my top picks for an itinerary! Let me start by saying, there are no bad views in Santorini. The breathtaking cliffs will be sure to have you drinking…
The Magic of Mykonos – What to See, Where to Eat, and Instagram Photo Spots
May 10, 2018 - LifestyleMykonos was the first of the Cyclades islands we visited when we went to Greece and it was definitely unique by comparison. Think, quiet but glamorous fishing village by day and Pleasure Island from Pinocchio by night. During the on-season, this town is known for it’s partying 25 hours a day, 8 days a week. Since we went during off-season, we didn’t have to step over any drunk party-goers in the street or fight for a table to admire the…
My Mom and I just got back from our Mother-Daughter Greece trip and it was definitely one we’ll both remember forever. Not only because Greece is actual paradise, but also because we went just the two of us. We went during non-tourist season when the weather is still beautiful but we aren’t so overwhelmed with crowds and crazy hot temperatures to be able to enjoy it. There were a few things I wanted to share with you guys to know…
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of L’Oréal® Paris Elvive. The opinions and text are all mine. Over the last several years I’ve been on a roller coaster ride with my hair. I got in line for the ride in 2011, buckled up and started to go in 2012. Since then, it has been up and down (and sometimes off the track). My hair is naturally very dark, brown and curly. I’m Puerto Rican so I…
