Outfit of the Week



Skirt- Cuesta Blanca/Similar here and here
Shoes- Daniel Cassin/Similar here and here
Necklace- Forever 21

Hello! Another week another outfit of the week! I don’t usually post summer outfits because if we are being honest I don’t really know how to dress during the summer, I prefer dressing during the winter. This one is really simple and what I wore to run a few errands. It will be also good for maybe when it’s a little bit colder, maybe autumn or spring, to wear with tights underneath, boots and maybe a jacket. Anyways, hope you are having a great week!

¡Hola! ¡Otra semana y otro outfit de la semana! No suelo poner outfits de verano porque honestamente no sé cómo vestirme en el verano, prefiero vestirme en el invierno. Este es muy simple, y lo use para hacer algunos mandatos. También estaría bueno para cuando hace más frio, quizás otoño o primavera, podes usarlo con medias largas abajo, botas, y una campera. ¡Espero que tengan una buena semana!
Love,
Pili

10 things that made me happy last week



Hi guys! To keep up the positivity on the blog I wanted to share more of what made me happy this week.
1.       College interview. Like I mentioned previously I had my college interview which it officially means I’m in!
2.       My other cat Simba. Simba went missing for a an entire day and we were extremely worried but once he appeared again it light up my whole day and now having him around just makes me happy.
3.       Stay away from social networks. So around Wednesday I decided to stay away from all social networks, Snapchat, twitter, Facebook and Instagram and only checking in the morning and night. I highly recommend you do it for at least three days, you will seriously change how often you check it.
4.       New leggings. This might some random but I love buying new clothes especial winter ones since I hadn’t have a real winter in 3 years! So buying this leggings which are going to be useful this winter really made me happy.
5.       Grammys! Yesterday they were the Grammy and I loved them. I love Rihanna’s, Paul McCartney and Kanye West new song so watching the performances was amazing as well as Ed Sheeran performing!
6.       Switched at Birth. I started this show this week and I’m hook! I love the storyline.
7.       Le Pain Quotidian. I love this place, my mom and I always trying going whenever we go downtown and it is amazing!
8.       Organized closet! I finally got down to organizing my closet so I moved some things around and now I have more space, I’m still waiting for my desk to finally have a decent room.
9.       FourFiveSeconds by Rihanna, Paul McCartney and Kanye West. I feel in love with this song and I listening whenever I’m riding my bike.
10.   Lovely comments from readers! Nothing makes me happier than reading that so many people are enjoying my blog. I know 5-6 comments might not seem much for some blogs but to me, makes me feel like I’m doing this right.
What made you happy this week?
Love
Pili

To All the Seniors Out There



Hi! I wanted to share a few words with those who are seniors or will be seniors this years. I finish high school two months ago and this are some thoughts that have been on my mind ever since.
Seniors,
Please appreciate those little moments in school. Appreciate watching your friends laugh after you told me them about your weekend. Appreciate your spot in the school patio where you all sat and talk every single recess. Appreciate your friend stealing your food and laughing in your face. Appreciate the walk to class where you ran into someone and talk for a second. Appreciate those books and the analysis from that brilliant teacher. Appreciate the sitting in the back of the class trying to keep your eyes open but failing miserably. Appreciate the way your class burst out laughing when someone made a hilarious joke. Appreciate the way your mom or dad made you lunch for the next and how they drove you to school. Just, appreciate your last day of high school.
After two months, I keep telling myself, “Pili, why the heck did you spend your last year saying “When is this over?” or something among those lines?” I did not appreciate being a senior. I complained for months and told myself “This will finally be over” but forgot to appreciate being close with my friends, waking up every morning and seeing them by the tree discussing random things, or laughing when you saw your friend arriving too early. I feel like I should have appreciate high school a little bit more. Because yes, college is terrifying. You’ll learn to do things you didn’t even know you had to do, cooking, cleaning and yes, getting lost. I remember everyone telling me I’ll miss high school, but I don’t miss it. I don’t miss having a teacher yelled at me because I want to enjoy my frozen yogurt, or a teacher yelling at me for whispering to my friends. I do however wish I had appreciate those moments I’ve mention before. The good moments.
I don’t think I’ll ever miss high school. I think I’ll miss more being a child and having people help me out and not doing grown up things. Or being with my friend’s every day for 8 hours. I just wish I had appreciate those small moments more.
This kind of sounds messy but that is my head at the moment. And I hope seniors or even juniors can understand where I’m coming.
This is something uncommon for me, I don’t usually express my mind like this nor do I ever feel like this about school. (I hated school) but lately I just been missing my friends and this is my way of saying I miss them.
Love
Pili

10 Things That Made Me Happy This Week



Hello! For today’s blog I thought I should try something different. I like this idea of keeping record of things that made me happy in a week to be able to go back and smile at the memories, a nice way to keep track of nice memories.
1.       Dylan, the cat. He is the adorable new member of our family. He was found by my siblings in the hood of the car. He is full of energy and I just love spending time with him.
2.       Going downtown. There is something so fun of going downtown. I love Buenos Aires, I feel like this city is so beautiful and there is so much diversity going on.
3.       Danish food. We went to a Danish restaurant with my grandparents and aunt this week. It was a lot of fun since my mom’s side of the family is Danish!
4.       Officially becoming a college students. So I finally did the finally touches to be a college student. After a few stops at the University and filling forms. I’m officially in!
5.       Seeing old friends. Yesterday I hang out with some of my friends from 8th grade and it was really nice remembering old memories and catching up.
6.       Bike rides with the sunsets. I love sunsets they are so peaceful so every day at 7pm I’ve decided to ride my bike around and appreciate the sun setting.
7.       Twilight from my window. Cutting down the house under constructions my bedroom has a lovely view, especially at twilight.
8.       New Gabriel García Márquez books. I was at the supermarket the other day and I found some book by García Marquez that made me really want to read more in Spanish. Since I feel in love with A Hundred Days of Solitude I want to give more a try.
9.       New writing inspiration. Earlier this week I was having a crisis because I would open a word document and nothing would come out. I wanted to write but my brain was empty. After some google search, I went and re read some old stuff of mine and completely got new ideas for writing, so I’m excited to get back on that.
10.   Joe Jonas Instagram. Apart for the occasional selfie (which we all appreciate, thank you Joe) this guy’s Instagram is hilarious. I keep cracking up and open Instagram as soon as I get a new notifications from his tweets.

What made you happy this week?
Love
Pili

January Favorites!

Hello lovelies! January is already ending and another favorites is here! So I’m here to share what I’ve been loving this January!
¡Hola! Enero está terminando y acá hay otros favoritos. Por eso estoy acá, compartiendo que estuve amando este enero.
Working out tank tops from Pink (no longer available) similar here

I just love this tank tops for working out because they are so comfortable. I love the ‘Where my witches at’ because It short of adds some fun into the outfit.

Me encantan estas musculosas para ir al gimnasio porque soy muy cómodas. Me encanta la de ‘Where my witches at” porque le agrega algo divertido al outfit.




This is the third time I’m blogging about this jeans but I can’t help it! I love them! Like I’ve mentioned before it was kind of cold in Buenos Aires so by wearing this I wasn’t too warm nor too cold. They were really useful for Miami at night.

¡Esta es la tercera vez que hablo sobre estos jeans, pero no puedo evitarlo! ¡Me encantan! Como dije antes estuvo haciendo más frio en Buenos Aires entonces usando estos no tenía ni tanto calor ni tanto frio. También los pude usar en Miami a la noche.


This bag has been really useful this past few days. I’ve been doing lots of errands which involve carrying random things that could only fit in this bag. I’ve also could take my camera in here and a book to pass the time. As well as, taking it to the gym and put everything in there.

Este bolso tuvo buen uso estos últimos días. Estuve haciendo muchos mandatos que involucraban llevar cosas que solo entraban en esta cartera. También pude llevar mi cámara y un libro para pasar el tiempo. Al igual que las cosas para el gimnasio.





Last year I bought a similar one but from Sally Hansen but it broke unfortunately and I didn’t bother buy another since my mom already has some of this. But when I saw it I remembered I wasn’t going to live with my mom anymore and I should buy some of my own. I love this Essie one it is really good for the nails and the nail polish does stay for a few days.

El año pasado me compre uno parecido pero de Sally Hansen pero se rompió y no me moleste con comprar uno nuevo porque mi mama ya tenía de estos. Pero cuando lo vi me acorde que no voy a vivir más con mi mamá y me tenía que compra uno para mí. Me encanta este de Essie porque es muy bueno para las uñas y él esmalte se queda unos cuantos días.



I was literally dying for a BB Cream after I saw so many blogger and Youtubers saying they were amazing. I saw Zoella (Zoe Sugg) mentioning in a video saying The Body Shop was a good one, so since it was affordable I got it. I love love the way it leaves my skin when I wear it, it feels wait better than base. It gives you a tan look than looks just amazing, I got tons of compliments.

Estaba muriendo por una BB Cream después de ver tantas bloggers y Youtubers diciendo que eran buenas. Vi un video de Zoella (Zoe Sugg) que decía que esta de The Body Shop era muy buena, ya que también era barata me la compre. Amo amo como deja mi piel cuando la uso, se siente mejor que las bases. También te da un toque de color que es increíble, me dieron muchos cumplidos.



I saw this mug in Urban Outfitters and was like this is it this is my mug. I even send it to my friends and everyone said: “Yes Pili that’s your mug.” I’ve been drinking my coffee and tea in this mug and it is so cute.

Vi esta taza en Urban Outfitters y dije:                 esto es, esta es mi taza. Hasta se lo mande a mis amigos y me dijeron: “Si  Pili esa es tu taza”. Estuve tomando mi café y mi té en esta taza y es tan linda.



I’ve this headphones for around three years and I sometimes forget I have them. Recently I kind of remembered I have them and they are so good. I love to wear them when I work out, ride my bike, I’m typing in my laptop or watching videos. They are so comfortable and the sound is so good.

Tengo estos auriculares hace tres año aproximadamente y a veces me olvido que los tengo. Hace poco me acorde que los tenia y son tan buenos. Me encanta usarlos cuando estoy haciendo ejercicio, andando en bicicleta, usando mi computadora o cuando veo videos. Son muy cómodos y el sonido es muy bueno.



When I was in the USA I Heard this song on the radio and was like: “Hey that’s Ed Sheeran,” and being Ed Sheeran biggest fan I download the song. I love it, it’s so catchy and upbeat, I love to listen to it when I’m working out.

Cuando estaba en Estados Unidos escuche esta canción en la radio y me di cuenta que era Ed Sheeran y al ser la fan más grande de Ed Sheeran me baje la canción. Me encanta que sea tan pegadiza y upbeat. Me encanta escucharla cuando estoy haciendo ejercicio.



I really wanted to read Zoe Sugg book as soon as she announced it. I love Zoe she is one of my favorite blogger and Youtubers, and I think the fact that she has a book out is amazing. I finished the book in three days and it was really good. I’m not usually into romance but this one was really good. I really enjoyed the storyline and loved the way it was written.

Quería leer el libro de Zoe Sugg apenas anuncio que lo iba a publicar. Me encanta Zoe, es una de mis bloggers y youtubers favoritos y creo que el hecho de que tenga un libro es increíble. Termine el libro en tres días y estuvo muy bueno. Generalmente no me gusta los libros de romance pero este me gusto. Me gustó mucho la historia y de la manera que estaba escrito.



I loved this movie. I was a Little bit scared thinking it was a scary movie but it was more of a suspense movie. To be Honest, this movie has the biggest plot twist I’ve ever seen in my life. I really enjoyed it.

Me encanta esta película. Tenía un poco de miedo de que la película sea de miedo pero era más de suspenso. Para ser honesta, esta película tiene el plot twist más grande que haya visto en mi vida.

 What have you been loving this month?
Love
