Rimmel Lipsticks | Fancy & Pink Chic



Yes, I still have these lyrics stuck in my head! I can’t get over this song, I think it will be the song that will for now and forever reminded of the summer of 2014. I promise this has to do with Rimmel lipsticks!
    Even though it is still summer, it feels over to me, I guess because everyone is heading back to school. All the vacations are over, and we’re all returning to the daily grind. It seems I have an early case of summer ending nostalgia… So off course when passing by the makeup aisle I decided to buy some summer lipsticks! I was so excited to buy these because they were half off, I got both for $3.99 each! BUYA!
    I bought two Rimmel lipsticks, Fancy and Pink Chic. Can you guess why I bought Fancy? Well it wasn’t just for the name okay! I really like both colors for summer and wanted to experiment with pink lipsticks because I mostly buy purple colored ones more.


¡Si, todavía tengo las letras de la canción en mi cabeza! No puedo aburrirme de esta canción, creo que será la canción que por ahora y siempre me recuerde del verano 2014. ¡Te prometo que esto tiene algo que ver con los pinta labios de Rimmel!
Aunque todavía es el verano, para me se siente como si ya se acabo, porque todos han regresado a la escuela. Todos los vacaciones se han acabado y estamos regresando a los días de trabajo. Aparece que he agarrando nostalgia prematura, del fin de verano… Entonces, por supuesto, cuando pase por el pasillo de maquillaje decidí comprar pinta labios para lucir en el verano! Estuve muy emocionada para comprar estos dos porque estaban a venta, solo pague la mitad del precio, $3.99 por cada uno! AHA!
    Compre dos pinta labios de Rimmel, Fancy y Pink Chic. ¿Puedes adivinar porque compre Fancy? Bueno, ¡no fue solamente por el nombre! Me gustaron mucho los dos colores para lucir en el verano y quería experimentar con colores rositas, ya que siempre compro colores más morados.

DIY: Quinceanera & Sweet 16 Photography

One of the photos I took of my sister for her invitations, my personal favorite though she choose another. / Este es uno de los fotos que le tome a mi hermana para sus invitaciones, personalmente mi favorito pero ella escogió otro.



After a deafening silence on my blog, I am here by going to blog regularly!! (or at least to try to agian, lol. It’s hard to get back into the rhythm sometimes.)

Today I bring you tips for Quinceañera or Sweet Sixteen DIY photography!!

         But first...
   
What is a quinceañera? Like a sweet sixteen a quinceañera is a coming of age party. However, a quinceañera is celebrated in latin american countries or by people with a latin heritage when a girl turns 15. It also seems to be a greater occasion than a sweet sixteen. I say this because for a quinceañera, unlike a sweet sixteen, a hall or other type of venue is rented, their will be live music, dj and even a church ceremony. Nonetheless, every country has its own unique way of celebrating a quince. The quinceañera I’m describing is of Mexican/Mexican American tradition.  

There is technically no “Quinceañera” season per se, like a wedding season. (at least that I know of…) This is because a quinceañera is given to a girl when she turns 15. She will usually have a court of “damas” and “caballeros.” Girls and boys her own age who will accompany her on her big day. They will usually do a waltz with her and more recently even a second surprise dance. The surprise dance can be of any type of music!
