#TheDivaChallenge First Date

*This is the first post outfit for the diva challenge. Ah! First dates… so easy, so much fun, right? Eh…not quite. Besides those terrible dates that become a great story to tell and complain to your friends, they can become an entire ordeal before you even meet the guy/girl in person. Why? Because of what […]

The Diva Challenge

Thanks to Mary’s support (from beautyliciousfreaks ) I decided to put an idea in action that I’ve been having for a while now – Why not play Diva for one whole week and give ourselves and fellow fashionistas a chance to know each other as well as participate in a healthy fashion contest? That’s how The Diva Challenge […]

The BEST tool for fashionistas

INTRODUCING: POLYVORE So, since I am hosting the diva challenge, which is heavily based on polyvore, I thought why not introduce this awesome website/app on the blog? I confess even though I’ve been a member for over 4 years (gasp!) I never explored it beyond being an easy outfit maker. I realize now what a mistake that […]

Tech Alert: DxO One

"DxO ONE. The pocket-size camera that pairs perfectly with your iPhone, so you can take amazing photos anywhere." When it came to photography what before was only a prickling desire in the back of my head became stronger once I joined Instagram and more and more I wanted to take good photos. Before I had [...]

The Milk Diet. Did it work?

Okay, the title may make it seem like it's a popular diet out there. It's not. A friend of my sister's said she was going to do it (which she didn't) and showed my sister the menu for the 8 day duration. My mom immediately thought of me because I consume lactose everyday and a [...]

Sherry London cocktail dress giveaway!*

One of the things that most disappoints me about Brazil is the lack of school proms. In other countries it can be such a big deal - being invited by a cute guy in a cute way, choosing a beautiful dress, arriving on a Limo... I mean, count me in! But forget the guy, forget [...]

Summer Shoes. What’s trending?

I am not a big fan of summer weather, but I do enjoy the fashion trends that come with it. The warmer weather signals the time to tuck snow boots away and to pull sandals out. This summer, I have noticed a few summer shoe trends, and those trends seem to revolve around a revival […]

The Beauty Color TAG

Me and Melissa over at melissahoffmanbeauty decided to start a new TAG where the participants are randomly assigned a color which they will use mainly on their beauty look. The color I got was brown. I rarely use brown eyeshadow because I have this paranoya with my dark circles… but I am slowly adding it to […]

My New BF: Netflix

When I first subscribed to Netflix I wasn’t completely sold – there was little, older content and I wasn’t using it that much for the price I paid. Fast forward to now where I share it with my parents and am excitedly waiting for one of my favorite shows ever to come back. And the […]

70’S MAKEUP LOOK (Collab)

  This is a collab with other girls, each one has made a makeup look for their decade. Check the decades here (30s | 60s | 80s | 2000’s ). I did do a video but it was a total failure so instead you get something a little different!   THE TRENDS We have to start with a bit of history. In the […]

Playing it Cool. Funny Rom-com or…

A cliché movie that pretends not to be cliché   That’s how I’d describe this movie. A guy (Chris Evans) that doesn’t believe in love because he got abandoned by his mother finally finds love in a woman he meets by accident. Unlike all his past girlfriends, she isn’t a push-over air headed woman which entices […]

Becoming a Silver Fox

Between the huge array of ombrés, balayage’d locks and Kylie Jenner inspired aqua hair, is a new bad boy in town: Gray hair a.k.a #Grannyhair. You heard that right! Long from crying after spotting a silver strand on their heads, people are actively painting their entire hair gray. With a lot of cebrities adopting the […]
