Mini vaca. & Strawberry Picking

Geia sas ladies i'm back! So Wednesday my family & i went to visit my uncle who lives kind of far away from us (across the state) & we made a mini vacation out of it. And I got some great pictures out of this trip.


Back in June we actually went strawberry picking but i never got a chance to post about it so here are the berries we picked.


Yummm don't those just make your mouth water?! I find that when you pick strawberries vs store bought, the fresh are so much sweeter. I could & did literally eat a million of these!

Beauty Breakdown: Rihanna's Makeup

I could not help but pick up this month's Elle magazine issue featuring Rihanna on the cover. She's looks fierce. (Okay, she always looks fierce.) But she's sporting a really intense black smokey eye. So here's how you can duplicate it on your own! 


Face Create the look of flawless skin with a luminous foundation like NARS Sheer Glow Foundation. Then warm the frame of the face with a matte

Newest Additions to My Closet

GEIA SAS ladies!! Its great to be back & feeling so much better! I've been doing some behind the scenes work on my blog lately though so its not been a total loss. Well i have a 'mini haul' of sorts today from Kohl's Department store.

My generous yiayia(grandma) bought this lovely dress for me yesterday. Its a really classy look & i feel very mature & empowered in it lol ; which is always a good thing. :] It fits a little lose but i know the top part is suppose to.

Here is the print close up; feathers.
Next she also bought me shoes but this was because on the way into the store mine broke, yes broke, i was wearing flip-flops that fell apart in the parking lot, lol not the best place to happen.

These were $15 i believe & i really loved the braid across the shoe. They are really cute & can be either dressy or casual.

Close up, they are like a bronzish silver mix but in the pictures they look just silver.


So on a completely different subject Cristiano Ronaldo announced he has a son who was born in June & that he will be raising the child alone with the help of his mother & the baby's mother wishes to remain anonymous. I thought that was weird & maybe she was like some drunken groupy or something but then i saw a report that she was a surrogate from the US & he paid her to have a baby. Which seems weird for a 25yr old male but it also seems very weird that a mother would just leave her baby like that & its clearly not a $$ issue because she would get major child support...so maybe the surrogate thing is true. Who knows. But anyhow congratulations Cristiano mou i hope he looks just like you & plays just as well! Best of luck!

My surprise is still coming up very soon, it will most likely be announced early next week.

Keep them GUESSING...change your MAKEUP routine

Stuck in a makeup rut? Here are a couple ways to switch up your daily routine without breaking the bank.

CHANGE THE LINE: Opt for a different shade of eyeliner if you typically wear black liner try using a brown instead. Plus, brown eyeliner tends to give you a more youthful look.

STOP THE LIP: Every one of us has a staple lip color we just can't live without. But you will be amazed what

How I'm Surviving After Surgery

Geia sas everyone, i'm currently laying on the couch with an ice pack on my 'chipmunk cheeks' & getting pretty tired of my liquid diet but i thought i'd share what i've been eating drinking since my teeth surgery.

Slim fast has been 2 meals a day.

Muscle Milk is my pill taking drink of choice.






Today i actually had something a bit thicker; yogurt. It was pretty hard to eat because i can't open my mouth very far. Is anyone noticing a pattern here..everything has been chocolate lol, but i've been trying to eat/drink stuff with higher protein. Though i'm still feeling weak even with the protein.

Here is a basically an overview of what happened with my teeth: I remember after getting the i.v. the dentist telling me to try to keep my eyes open as long as i could. I don't remember falling asleep but when i woke up they were still finishing up the stitches & i told them i was awake & they said 'no talking' because i don't think they believed me. So later after i took Vicodin it got me really sick obviously its a bad thing to throw up right after the surgery so i had to go to the hospital & get a SECOND i.v. & after 3 doses of anti-nausea meds and 3 doses of oxycodone i finally felt better & went home at 12:30am. So its been a long & painful process, i'm just hoping to feel better soon.

I have some fun stuff coming up including a big surprise that i'll announce when i'm feeling better. Talk to you all soon!
