"Resturant 411"

Hello all my little pumpkin patches!!!
As a reminder, I will be suggesting some of the best resturants I have been to.  My husband and I LOVE food, so it is my duty to inform all my fellow hungry friends on what resturants are worth trying!
Today's resturant is a place where my family and I have gone throughout my life, because it has a peice of who we are.  I have Colombian and American background, so I'm already obsessed with the typical food from there.........BUT, I have taken friends and collegues there, and they were left speechless! Not only is the service friendly, but the food is freshly cooked, baked, or grilled.  Anyone who goes there can't help but feel like you're having an actual Colombian experience with a live band that plays music such as vallenatos, salsa, cumbia, bachata, and merengue.  I highly recommend this ;)

Word of Advice :  Use your imagination.  Take lots of pictures in life.  Take pictures of unique things.  Upload them.  Edit and tweak them.  Make your pictures unbelievable.  Possibilities are limitless.

 

 

"Can I Get Some Peanut Butta With That jelly?"

If you haven't heard or seen, Jelly shoes are BACK BABY!  Mark my words, styles will most the time come back around, so you betta tell somebody!  Ok, but seriously, this is finally your chance to wear the same type of shoes you wore when you were little that gave you smelly feet.  Well guess what, you need to buy some baby powder and spread that all over you feet before stepping into your new jelly flats.  Let go and be worry-free.  C'mon you remember how soft and comfortable they were!  You can find them at Forever 21, Agaci, Love Culture, wal-mart & K-mart, etc.
This is a style that has no age limit.  You will always look cool walking with jelly!

 

Meet My Miamian...

I thought I should go ahead and introduce my Beautiful Husband Oscar.  His nickname is "Oz". yes, like the wizard!  We have been together 5 years, but are completing our first year of marriage.  I love him, and He is the ying to my yang. Period. Ladies, hands off  hahhahaha...I'm serious;)

Don't Feel like wearing a traditional wedding veil?

Are you about to get married? If not, do you want to one day?
Do you know for sure that you are going to wear that traditional veil, not because you want to, but because you feel wierd or afraid to step out the box on your special day.  Let me tell you, when I told my mom that I wanted to wear a headband instead of just a veil, she shed a little tear, it was very sad.  But...........after hours of disussing it, she understood how important it was for me to express my personality and style through my wedding ensemble and accessories.  So, since I feel like I am a"hippy at heart", I am always wearing forheadbands, and decided to incorporate that into my headpeice.  I wore a headband made with pearls to make it look classy.  It was beautiful.  Here are a few of the hundreds of alternatives to wearing a veil on your special day.

 

Resturant 411

Ok Guys! I have a great treat for you! I have been very lucky to be able to have the ability to travel throughout my life, and I wanted to take advantage of my food knowledge and spread the word on what are some great places to eat...

Today's Resturant 411 is...

JOE'S STONE CRAB
http://www.joesstonecrab.com/
11 Washington Ave Miami Beach, FL 33139
(305) 673-0365

Testimony: Amazing!  My husband took me here on Valentines day one year and it
literally knocked my socks off.  People travel and wait over 2-hours just to be able to eat their
famous fresh crab.  They also serve steaks, chicken, and fish.  It is that located just off the beach , so one can walk around
and enjoy the beautiful view while waiting to be seated.  It's food paradise! 
Service: Perfect
Quality: Perfect
Quantity: Perfect

"High-Waisted Heaven"

Are there any other girls out there who have oompa loompa legs like me?

It is sad, but we are not all blessed with gorgeous long spider legs.  Power to those girls who do have that aka My bestie Jasmine( I hate you lol).  Well, speaking from personal experience, high-waisted pants or jeans are a short girl's miracle.  The location where the top of the pants/jeans sit on the waist not only elongates the legs making the person appear taller, but it also brings out the natural curves because of the body hugging form.

Don't be afraid to try them on the next time you are shopping at stores such as Forever 21, Agaci, H&M, Papaya, Charlotte Russe, or Image.  They will change your life, because they changed mine...tear...sniffle...awkward silence.

 

"Camo Love"

Camo print has always been around.  It has played such a huge part in our fashion history... and to be honest, it never gets old and never will.

Nowadays Camo print and dark greens can be matched with any color depending on how daring you are, but here are some color combinations that are always a fashion success.

What character do you want to become today?

 

Add some neon colored shoes.  Orange, yellow, and red are always a show stopper with camo print. Also, Gold and camo should have it's own zipcode, becausr this look is out of this world.

"Moroccan Oil"

If you have not heard about this, I am about to become your best friend.  It is an asbolute delight for me to indroduce ... The multi-purpose Moroccan Argan Oil.  This is not only amazing for your hair, making it shiny and rejuvinated, but it is also big on making your skin feel like a baby's bottom ha ha.

You can find it in most super centers or salons, but a good deal is always online ;)

Become Mrs. Cleo for a day...

 

Birthday cards, wedding/babyshower favors,  and couple games.  These are just a few of the many things you can get creative using these low-calorie delicious snacks.  Fortune cookies are the new "valentines day chocolates."  Again, we are exploring CREATIVE ways of doing things.  I tried this with my husband on one of our date nights, and he absolutley loved it.  Believe it or not, men are much more like to women than we think.  They appreciate thos little personal details that express our love. 

Go on... Surprise him, her, your firend, or even your mom on mother's day.

 

"Good BabyDoll gone Bad"

 

Yes, I went there! Haha, I hope I got a little reaction from you ladies who are not ready to come out of your box yet.  Trust me, this outfit will be the center of attention in a COOL way.  Take a sweet innocent babydoll dress or tutu and pair it up with a studded belt, daring gloves, and a hot leather jacket.  This will give off that perfect look every girl wants..."I'm a girl you will want to introduce to your mama, but I'll still be your fantasy."

Try it... Step outside the box.

 

Big Day Butterflies...

Yes Everyone! I have taken the slippery plunge and am a proud married woman! Woo-hoo!  Shout Out to all my former and current single Ladies... hahhaha..haha.aha..a...a..um...aawkward.
Anywho!  This is a picture of me a few hours before my wedding ceremony.

 I was a hot mess. Please follow these steps to save yourself some unnessesary drama and keep you focused on the prize (Your Beautiful Fiance.)

Step 1: Eat Something light and refreshing such as A bowl of cut fruit.

Step 2: Relax.  Take 3 long breaths.

Step 3: If possible, try to perform a few yoga positions. (This will help ease your mind.)

Step 4: Focus and visualize walking down the aisle with surrounding posotivity.
