Living on a youth worker’s salary, I have to be very strategic about where and how I spend my money. Haircuts are rarely something I spend my money on. As a kid, I honestly don’t remember a time when my mom took my sisters and I to a legit hair salon for haircuts. Either she would do it, or have one of my aunts cut … Continue reading Haircut tales//Cuentos de corte de pelo
During the fall/winter, and often stretched into spring, I tend to gravitate toward turtlenecks. Why? Because they are amazing! And here are THREE reasons why: Warmth! Duh, right?!

They provide that extra warm … Continue reading 3 Reasons why you need turtlenecks NOW// 3 Razones por las que necesitas cuellos de tortuga AHORA
First post of 2019, short and, hopefully, sweet. As I had mentioned in my Packing List for Portland post, while traveling in Portland last month, I couldn’t help but to thrift shop. I purchased 3 things, 2 of which I wore for my family’s Christmas Eve dinner. Vintage Beaded Top: Purchased at RedLight Clothing Exchange for $13. It doesn’t have a size, but I found … Continue reading Portland Thrift Finds//Encuentros de Segunda en Portland
If you should know anything about me, is that I LOVE affordable travel. So when I found tickets to fly to Portland for just under $100 from San Francisco, I hopped on that offer immediately. After doing some research, I realized they were that cheap because you were only allowed to take ‘one personal item’. Normally if a checked bag isn’t included, at least one … Continue reading Packing list for Portland//Lista de Empaque para Portland

If you are pressed for time and don’t feel like reading through this entire post, the answer is YAY! I love checking out the clothes during my Costco runs, and let me tell you why… When I decide to go to Costco it is never because I want to check out the clothes, I just happen to be there buying groceries when I have found … Continue reading Fashion shopping at Costco, Yay or Nay?//¿Compras de moda en Costco, Si o No?
Soooo I tend to buy stuff when I am anxious. So I went shopping way more than I would have wanted this past week. Although I spent more than I probably should have, I don’t regret my purchases. I got pretty good deals, if I do say so myself 😛 So, I wanted to share with you all what I got: On a Monday, I … Continue reading My mini-shopping spree week//Mi mini semana de compras
One of my favorite colors is pink, I know, how stereotypically girly of me right?? But I can’t help it, it’s such a beautiful color! Like with the “wear all black” post, I sometimes get the urge to wear all pink. Things to keep in mind: Not all pink shades are created equal. There are tons of shades that technically fall under the ‘pink’ color … Continue reading How to wear pink//Como usar el color rosa
I got my first pair of Quay sunnies early this year. I had never heard of this brand before but while passing through Nordstrom a pair of really cute sunglasses caught my eye.

She said they were super trendy right … Continue reading Quay Australia Sunglasses: A review…kinda//Gafas de sol Quay Australia: Una revisión
