Our Thanksgiving Break was extend due to snow. Yay for SNOW DAYS. Because today was technically my Sunday Funday, I ran around (literally went to the gym), I danced around a lot, I read, I was a bum, but I also ran some much needed errands. My outfit was both warm and comfortable. I’m really […]
Chill effect
Post Thanksgiving means a lot of things for me, being around family and friends always gives me the fills. But today, winter really hit us hard. The day surprised us with chilly winds and the first snow of the season. If I wasn’t thankful enough yesterday for everything good in my life; I’m extra thankful […]
Latina Outreach Conference
On top of all of my other blessings: having a healthy and loving family, being healthy myself, educational opportunities, a rewarding and satisfying job and career, I am also blessed to be a Latina. Now the reason why I believe being Latina is such a blessing is simply because it’s made me the person I […]
Knitted for Winter
The way the wind is blowing at the moment makes me believe that today was our last nice day, for awhile at least. It’s only appropriate that the wintry chill come into our lives at precisely this time of year. I celebrated today showcasing my legs once again before I have to hide them. Not […]
Jacket time
It’s definitely winter “y” here. But I’m also stuck in between dressing warm in the morning and taking a layer off in the afternoon. It’s quite complicated. One thing I do know for certain is that it is officially jacket time in Kansas. The first jacket I took out of hibernation was my black leather […]
Velvet love
The more and more I actually “go shopping” to the point where I take my time and find items that may or may not fit in my closet; I’m surprised at how much my style has evolved. What I’ve noticed is that it’s becoming more personal and less what I think everyone will be wearing. […]
Beauty in Novemeber
Continuing with my quest for beauty knowledge, this month’s Birchbox was filled with festive holiday goodies. Just in time. Here’s what my box included: Raw Spirit Fragrances: Wild Fire Eau de Parfum– the detail say this fragrance is a woody blend and I couldn’t agree more. I used it this morning and all my students […]
Man of the hour
Happy Birthday a’pa! Today is my father’s birthday! There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to describe how much love I have for this man. It’s pretty simple, yet so complicated to show him how much I appreciate everything he has done for me and for all those special moments he has shared with me. […]
Camo Moment
My weekend is going to be huge for the simple reason that it’s my dad’s birthday! We usually celebrate this man in a huge way, but this year he decided to travel to 1. visit my brothers and 2. to shop. It’s a weird thing, but hey I’m not going to be one that says […]
Plaid Mix
I have to enjoy these warmer day while they last. They say we are going to have some sort of rain/snow day next week. Honestly it doesn’t sound fun. So bare legs today, why not?
