Nail Inspiration

Photo credit: Pinterest

I think I’ve been obsessed with painting my nails since I was thirteen and you can rarely see my plain nail because I always have nail polish on. Unfortunately, I suck at painting my nails even when its plain red, but whatever, I enjoy going into Pinterest and looking at the different nail work people do, hoping one day I could actually do it. Here a few which I picked.

What type of nail polish do you like?

Creo que estoy obsesionada con tener las uñas pintadas desde que tengo 13 y es muy raro que me vean mi uña sin esmalte arriba, porque siempre las tengo pintadas. Por desgracia, soy muy mala pintándome las uñas hasta cuando es algo normal, como rojo. Igualmente, me gusta ir a Pinterest y buscar los diferentes diseños que hacen las personas, desando que algún día pueda hacerlos. Acá hay algunos que elegí.

¿Qué tipo de esmalte de uña te gusta?

Overall Style

Photo credit: pinterest

Hello! So lately, I’ve been notices how often are overall use and I’ve been loving this trend. Overall remind me of one I was younger and my mom would put me some overall in the autumn (I used to break ALL my pants and overall knees so my mom would put a patch where there were holes). I love how they are back, unfortunately do not own a pair but I’m looking forward to buy some if I see them. I feel like the black one are a little bit more formal while jeans one are more for the day.

What do you think about the trend?

¡Hola! Últimamente estuve notando como los jardineros están siendo usados más seguido y amo esta tendencia. Los jardineros me hacen acordar a cuando era chiquita y mi mama me ponía jardineros en otoño (solía romper todos mis pantalones y jardineros en la rodilla entonces mi mama les ponía un parche donde había agujeros). Me encanta como está de moda de vuelta, por desgracia no tengo un par pero estoy buscando comprarme unos apenas encuentro. Siento que los negros son más formales mientras los de jeans son para usar durante el día.

¿Qué te parece esta tendencia?

Favorite Youtubers

Photo credit: Twitter

One of my favorite things to do online is to watch Youtubers. I think I spend a good amount of my time doing so. Here is a list of my top favorite Youtubers to watch and that you should defiantly check out:

1.       Zoella. Zoe was the first beauty blogger I started watching, so she was kind of introduction into the world of blogging. Zoe has an amazing blog, Youtube channel, vlog and amazing book. She is someone who is fun to watch, plus HOW CUTE IS NALA?

2.       Essie Button. I love how chill Essie is and how much she vlogs. I think I could spend all day watching her vlogs.

3.       Hello October. I started following Suzie base on her blog and when I saw her Youtube channel I loved it. I love her vlogs as well, and her make up tutorials are so amazing.

4.       Velvetgh0st. How cute is Gabby? Every time I see her videos I’m like: this girl is SO cute! To be honest, I started watching her recently but I already love her, plus we both love cats.

5.       Jacks gap. So Jack and Finn were the first British Youtubers I started watching and lead me on to different British Youtubers. They recently started posting more videos on their travels and I can’t stop watching them. The way they show the different cities, the way they work with the camera is pretty amazing.

6.       Thatcher Joe. I always laugh watching his videos. His prank videos are amazing, but also in his Vlog channel he posts video of his trips and they are so amazing.

7.       Jenna Marbles. Jenna is the first Youtuber I EVER watch. Like seriously the first one. I think I’ve been watching Jenna since 2010 maybe more? But back when she lived in Boston. I always, ALWAYS laugh at her videos.

8.       Troye Sivan. Another cute youtuber. Troye is so adorable and his video are sometimes so inspiring. Plus, he is an amazing musician and can’t wait for his new album.

9.       Caspar Lee. I started watching right after he did a video with JacksGap. I love Caspar and his prank are also pretty funny.

10.   Claudia Sulewski. She is also a pretty recent discover but her hauls are my favorite as well as her vlogs.

What Youtubers do you like to watch?

Thank you to my friends for this pictures :)

You may or may not know, I lived in Asuncion for about three years and half. I went back last week to visit some of my friends and spent some time with my family. In my days there I decided to see Asuncion with a different pair of eyes, I always saw Asuncion as my temporary home, or as the place that I was going to live for a few years but never as a tourist.  So, this time I did. I decided to take pictures of everything I loved about Asuncion (ok, maybe not everything). It helped a lot that my friends and I decided to do a mini tour downtown and I found place I have never been to in the three years I lived there. So here is Asuncion through the eyes of a “tourist” but also from someone who understands Paraguay and its people better than one.

What do you think of the pictures? Would you like to know more about Asuncion?

Quizás o quizás no sepan, que viví en Asunción por tres años y medio. La semana pasada fui de vuelta a visitar a mis amigos y a pasar tiempo con mi familia. Los días que estuve ahí decidí que quería ver Asunción con un par de ojos diferentes, siempre lo vi como mi casa temporaria o el lugar donde iba a vivir por un tiempo pero nunca como un turista. Entonces esta vez lo hice. Decidí sacarle fotos de todo lo que amaba de Asunción (quizás no todo pero bueno). Me ayudo bastante que mis amigas y yo decidamos hacer un mini tour por el centro y encontrar lugares que nunca fui en los tres años que viví ahí. Entonces, acá esta Asunción a través de los ojos de un “turista” pero también como alguien que entiende Paraguay y su gente mejor que un turista normal.

¿Qué te parecieron las fotos? ¿Queres saber más de Asunción?

Formal Look

Leggings-Sofia de Grecia

Blazer-Forever 21//similar here

Shirt-Hollister

Boots-DrMartens

This is kind of a late post, I was going to post this as soon as I finished this semester but between having bad lighting in my room, not being home during the day and traveling I couldn’t. So this was and outfit I wore to a final, which you always have to be a little bit more formal. The blazer was really want changed it. I always feel like blazers are perfect for a formal look like this and one you might use for finals at uni. I didn’t want to look to formal like I was going to work so I wore the Dr. Martens to make it a little bit less worky (yep, I made  that up).

           ***

Este post es medio tarde, lo iba a subir apenas termine el cuatrimestre pero entre que tenía mala luz en mi cuarto, no estaba nunca en casa y viaje, no pude. Este es un outfit que use para un final, que siempre hay que estar más formal. El blazer fue lo que hizo el gran cambio, porque siempre siento que los blazers son perfectos para algo más formal como este y perfectos para los finales en la universidad. No quería que sea tan formal para que no parezca que estaba trabajando use las botas.

Eyebrows Goals

Photo credit: Pinterest

I think is funny I’m posting this today when just last Friday I went to a place where they do your eyebrows so professionally (Asuncion: Bar de Cejas, do go if you have the chance). I always had really thick eyebrows and I hated them growing up. As I got older, I realized I actually loved how thick they are, even though I have to take so much care of them, I love my eyebrows.

A lot of people wonder, why that small piece of hair above your eyes matter so much, but OH MY GOD THEY DO CHANGE BELIEVE (have you seen those pictures of celebritywithout eyebrows? Scary). My favorite eyebrows are bold ones like the ones above (Taylor should do her eyebrows like that every single day, just saying, Taylor). Maybe not anyone can pull them off or you can’t grow hair there, but if you do have them, embrace them and don’t feel ashamed (like I once did). Another advice: DON’T touch them, go to a professional first.

What eyebrows do you love? And what type of eyebrows do you have?

                                                                     ***

Es gracioso que este poniendo esto hoy cuando el Viernes pasado fui a un lugar donde te hacen las cejas profesionalmente (si estas o vivís en Asunción vayan al Bar de Cejas, increíble). Siempre tuvo cejas gruesas y las odiaba cuando era chiquita. Cuando crecí, me di cuenta que me gustaban así de gruesas, aunque tenga que cuidarlas demasiado, amo mis cejas.

Muchas personas se preguntan, porque un pedazo de pelo arriba de los ojos importar tanto, pero CREEME QUE CAMBIA (¿vieron esas fotos de famosos sin cejas? Miedo). Mis cejas favoritas son las gruesas como las de las fotos de arriba (Taylor tendría que tener las cejas así todos los días, solo digo Taylor). Capaz, no a todos les queden bien o no te crece el pelo ahí, pero si las tenes acéptalas y no sientas vergüenza (como yo hice una vez).  Otro consejo: NO toque las cejas, anda con un profesional primero.

¿Qué tipo de ceja te gusta? ¿Qué tipo de ceja tenes?

Ps: apologize in advance the next few post will be in a hurry, back to UNI and real life tomorrow, and adult life and we all know I hate being an adult.

Her pictures are incredible, so weather you enjoy great pictures or reading Natalie’s fun story you defiantly need to check it out.
