Trendy Thursday LinkUP + Styles from SheIn

thirtyminusoneAugust 15, 2019August 15, 20196 Comments

A good deal is something I’m constantly on the hunt for. Especially now that I Blog about lifestyle and fashion. I almost feel like it’s my responsibility to offer you with ideas and deals that don’t break the bank. Looking good shouldn’t be expensive and splurging should be optional.

Lately, I’ve been shopping at SheIn because they have great styles at affordable prices, like this top. Would you believe me if I told you I paid $11 for it? Yes! It’s under $15 and I love it because it also comes in five colors. 😉

I’m wearing an x-small which fits true to size but would not mind trying a small for a bit more room. I’m linking the top below and all the other items in this look!

Featured Blogger – La Moumous who shared a fun try-on post with styles friendly enough to wear now and then.

These are the Five Things You Need on a Bar Cart

thirtyminusoneAugust 13, 2019August 13, 20192 Comments

Setting up a Bar Cart is not as hard as you may think! The first thing, obviously is to find a cart at a good price point. This bar cart for instance, I got for under $150!

Favorite Liquor

While I’m not a huge fan of hard liquor, there are a few exceptions. On my bar cart, you’ll find Tequila, wine, and often whiskey. This allows for a variety of drinks be made; I somewhat consider them the essentials! Of course, the type of liquor you decide to add to your bar cart is completely up to you. 😉

Flowers

Whether fresh or faux, flowers can easily transform a space. I recommend adding some to the bar cart to add a bit of a personal touch. For me, having fresh flowers is a must. There’s just something about them; they bring so much life to a space.

Drink-ware

Wine glasses, cocktail glasses and copper mugs are just a few of the drink-ware options I have on my bar cart. Depending on what you drink, you can adjust this, of course. What is important is to keep a few options on your bar cart, so that you have all you need in one space.

Decorative Items

Because a bar cart is not just for drinks, I added a few decorative pieces that would tie in the cart to the rest of the space. The theme in my living room is nautical, thus the whale tail. So when you get ready to add a cart to your space, take into account what decorative pieces – large or small – you can add to the space.

Beauty: Four Products I loved in July

thirtyminusoneAugust 7, 2019August 7, 20193 Comments

Givenchy Lipstick

This deep red shade is my go-to these days. I love the formula because it lasts long and it’s gentle on the lips. It’s available at Sephora.

Clinique Moisture Surge Eye 96-Hour Hydro Filler Concentrate

This Moisturizer has been helping heal my mama eyes. It feels great on the skin and is my go-to when my eye area needs a boost. I love that it’s part of a brand I already use as part of my skincare routine.

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion

This sunscreen is my all time favorite. It goes on clear and comes in a SPF 50 and SPF 30. Since discovering it, I have praised it and shared it with so many people. And it’s one of my go to.

Neutrogena Sunblock

Summer’s Eve® FreshCycle™ No-Rinse Cleansing Foam

I shared this product with you before and since I started using this new line, I haven’t stopped. This product is so convenient to have, both at home and on the go.

Hair La Vie

I try to switch my shampoo and conditioner often, even if it means coming back to a favorite at some point. I got to try these on combination with their hair growth vitamins. While I enjoyed using this product, there are a few things – like it’s consistency – that I didn’t love. The formula makes the scalp feel refreshed but in my opinion, it’s a bit tough on the hair.

Back to School Shopping and Trendy Finds at Burkes Outlets

thirtyminusoneAugust 4, 2019August 3, 201910 Comments

Back to school shopping has to be my favorite thing to do with Nayelli! We’ve been doing BTS shopping for five years now but this year is really special because Nalani is joining us! Yes, I will have two kids in school this time around and I’m experiencing all the feels 😔! She’s going into pre-school and I can hardly believe it. So, to get a head-start on our shopping, we headed to Burkes Outlet! If you remember, I’ve shared my favorite finds from a recent haul here before. And because I found some great deals on my last haul, I knew I had to keep Burkes at the top of my shopping list for back to school season.

I love being able to find on trend styles at affordable prices, this is why I turned to Burkes Outlet to help get their wardrobes ready for the new school year. The best part is being able to conveniently shop both online and in-store. This time we decided to do most of our back to school shopping in store and the girls loved it. It was such a fun experience. This store is relatively new to our area and I couldn’t be more excited to have a Burkes Outlet close by. 😃

They each found the cutest tops and bottoms. Nayelli just couldn’t wait to get home and start putting outfits together with all the items she picked out. School doesn’t start for a few more weeks but she’s already thinking about which outfit she will wear on the first day of school. Burkes Outlet offers a lot more than clothing! The girls were also able to find the backpacks they will use this school year. There’s a large selection from fun characters to brand names like Jansport.

While shopping, they also found their favorite bows by JoJo to accessorize their outfits. I feel like we are ready for school after doing our shopping and can’t wait to share more of the outfits the girls picked out with you. If you have little ones who are going to school soon, make Burkes Outlet your Back to School destination. 😉

Trendy Thursday LinkUp + Styling Black Tees this Summer

thirtyminusoneAugust 1, 2019August 3, 201923 Comments

I am a t-shirt loving kinda girl! I’m my closet white t-shirts, graphic tees and well t-shirts in general are never lacking! As I think ahead to fall, I am adding a few new pieces to my wardrobe. And I felt that a black T-shirt, would be the perfect addition. This one is just under $15 and part of the Nordstrom Sale!

T-shirts in my opinion can be dressed up or dressed down. While I went for a somewhat casual look, I love how block heels almost dress up this outfit. This black heel sandals go with so many outfits that I have no regrets about buying them. 😃 And is you’re on the market for new heels/sandals, I highly recommend these. I am also linking them below along with everything else in today’s look, so that you can shop and your convenience!

The fact that this tee can be styled so many different ways, make me feel it was a great buy for the season! Especially since it can be worn out and later. Once fall comes around, this T-shirt can be used in the style with a cardigan over it, to create a completely different look. 😉

As you think ahead to fall, what are some of your closet must haves? I’m curious! So leave me a comment below, perhaps I can work up a post with your ideas.

SHOP LOOK HERE

Miento si digo que no me gustan las camisetas. La verdad que tengo muchas de ellas y son una pieza que nunca faltan en mi armario. Tengo blancas, tengo gráficas y la verdad que tengo de toda clase. Aunque me hacia falta una negra. Y aproveché para comprarla durante el gran evento de Nordstrom este año. Esta me salió en menos de $15, lo que me parece muy buen precio.

Me encantan estas camisetas, porque se pueden lucir de muchas formas. Ya sea de forma casual o más formal. Como ven, ahora la luzco con pantalones de jeans sandalias. Pero en cuanto se aproxime el otoño, entonces lo puedo lucir con una cardigan y botines. 😉

Ya saben que abajo les dejo los enlaces a ti todo lo que ven en este look, para que puedan comprar lo que les guste.

How to Satisfy Summer Time Antojos? Try a belVita Breakfast Parfait

thirtyminusoneJuly 31, 2019July 29, 201911 Comments

This post is sponsored by NABISCO but all opinions are my own.

Summer is here and we are taking time to slow down and satisfy our antojos with quick but delicious recipes. One of the ways my family slows down is by doing things differently, like having breakfast in bed. 🙂 It’s the perfect way to satisfy our antojos and bond as a family. We have a handful of recipes that we love but the Make-it-Your-Own belVita Breakfast Parfait recipe is at the top of our list. It is a simple to follow recipe which only calls for a handful of ingredients and can be done in 10 minutes. Yes, you read that right!

The ingredient that we love most and always have in our home is the belVita Breakfast Biscuits. These are a go-to for my family and while we mostly eat them while on the go, it’s a snack that brings us together. The girls love sharing the belVita Cinnamon Brown Sugar Breakfast Biscuits, their favorite flavor. Now that it’s summer and we’re spending more time at home, it’s nice to be able to slow down and savor them.

Being able to incorporate them into delicious recipes like this belVita Breakfast Parfait is a plus. This fun recipe has helped us make some fun memories already. The girls have not stopped talking about this delicious breakfast idea!

They really enjoyed helping me pick up all of the ingredients that we needed to make the recipe at our local H-E-B. They agreed on what day we could have breakfast in bed because we needed to make sure Papi was home to enjoy this moment with us. And they each picked what jobs they would do with my supervision, of course. Nalani crumbled the biscuits because she is the smallest and did a great job at it. While, Nayelli helped me measure the ingredients; the yogurt, honey, pineapple and flaked coconut. It was my job to blend the yogurt and honey and put together each layer of the parfaits. At some point Nayelli took over as supervisor and kept saying, “Mami make sure to do the layers right!” 🙂

While we used the same ingredients as the original recipe, there are other options. You can use your favorite variety of belVita Breakfast Biscuits for example, or even add your favorite fresh fruit, like chopped peaches or sliced strawberries. These parfaits are truly a delicious treat in the morning; while being a nutritious and balanced breakfast. Did you know that belVita Breakfast Biscuits provide nutritious steady morning energy and 19g of whole grains? That’s one of the reasons why they’re mama approved and a regular in our home. 😉

If you’re looking to switch things up, I think you’ve found a recipe that will bring everyone together for breakfast! Save this recipe, head to your local H-E-B to pick up the ingredients for this recipe and give in to your antojos. But don’t forget to use the digital coupon offer to save $1.00 when you buy two (2) participating NABISCO products.
