Getting Away

YES! The birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming and the sun is radiating at its highest, you all know what that means right? Summer is finally here and it feels soooo good. 

So I know even though it's summer most of us still have to go to work, summer school and so on so this is why I invented a little Monday post called Motivation Mondays. Every Monday I will post something that sort of pushes us through the day and even the week because I know how hard and stressful Mondays can be.

Today's post is going to be sort of a reminder to not worry about the things that don't matter and start worrying about the things that do and just start living life as if it were your last. I think the best quote or phrase that represents this is Hakuna Matata; it means no worries for the rest of your days and that is exactly how we should be living, worry free, because worrying doesn't change a situation or helps fix it, it just wastes your time. So live young, free and don't worry about yesterday because it already happened there is nothing you can do about it and don't worry about tomorrow because it hasn't happened and whatever IS going to happen WILL happen so start living today, right now. 

Below I just posted some pictures of vacation getaways that I'm sure all of us would love to go to and NEED because lets admit it, sometimes we need to get away from everyone and everything and I thought it would go good with the Hakuna Matata phrase because when we're on vacation we really do live with no worries.

I hope this motivates you through your day, week or whole summer for that matter.Remember live your life the Hakuna Matata way, there is no other way;) 

If you guys want you should send me pictures through my twitter or instagram showing me how you're living your summer the Hakuna Matata way with the hash tag #HakuMata I'll be posting pictures on my instagram and all the links will be below.

Making a Statement

Hey Everyone! I hope you all had a lovely Saturday. Mine was pretty relaxing, I was just working on some projects for my YouTube channel. My blogs won't usually go up this late, I just had a pretty busy day, I mean it was quite relaxing but busy at the same time. So today I want to talk about statement necklaces. I know they've been around for quite some time now but I've just recently been really REALLY into them. Every time I walk into a store I head straight to the accessory section to admire all the beautiful necklaces. I feel like statement necklaces really make an outfit. For example, you can be wearing a plain white tee with some shorts and when you put on a statement necklace it totally changes the vibe to the whole outfit making it more exciting. Statement necklaces are literally my obsession not even joking. Below is just a collage of some of my favorite necklaces I stumbled upon online and that are to die for. You guys should totally let me know in the comments below if statement necklaces are your thing or if dainty necklaces are more your thing. I mean don't get me wrong, I LOVE dainty necklaces but right now I'm really into making a statement, if you know what I mean;)

                                          









Hope you all enjoyed! Until next time(:

Oh Celine, Celine how I love thou!

Alright so who else has been daydreaming about walking down the street with a Celine purse strapped to your shoulder but has not had enough money to splurge on it? ME! I've been wanting a Celine purse ever since I can remember, well along with a Chanel purse of course, but it is just way to expensive for me to buy one right this moment so I tried to look up some awesome dupes and I'm actually quite impressed by the amount of dupes there are out there. So here's a few of the stores that sell Celine-style purse dupes and believe me when I say, you'll look just as glamorous walking down the street with a Celine purse look a like. 

So if any of you haven't heard or seen what a Celine purse looks like (which I doubt) here is the original handbag. It comes in various colors as well as textures but these two happen to be some of my personal favorite. 
               

The first store I found some awesome dupes for this beautiful purse is Zara. Zara is more of a higher end retail store but not as high end as Macy's or Barneys. I mean Zara's clothing, accessories, shoes and so on are still pretty pricey but for the quality you get it is totally worth it. 

So this purse totally looks like the original Celine bag, minus the label of course. I mean the straps do look different but it seems to be the same material and the shape of the bag is exactly the same AND the best part of all of this is that it only retails for $39.90! How awesome is that? So if any of you are interested in purchasing this baby right here just go to the link below the bags and you should be able to find it right on their website. 



After window browsing some more for clothes and accessories, I came across some other purses that have the same style that the Celine purse has and of course for way less than the amount the original one costs! I found these purses in Dailylook.com and if some of you aren't familiar with this store it is basically an online store that gives you a different outfit idea everyday and that "outfit of the day" goes on sale for I believe a whole twenty-four hours and each day is a different outfit so basically you're guaranteed to always find something fun and trendy on sale. 

These purses, again, have the same style vibe as the Celine purse and the straps look a lot like it as well as the zipper in the front. I mean they aren't the actual purse but it sure as heck is a great dupe. 


$54.99

$54.99


$44.99


So while we daydream about one day holding our Celine purses close to our hearts, I think we should all settle for a lovely look a like, for NOW. 
I hope you all enjoyed this post and let me know in the comments below if you would like me to find any particular dupe for anything and I'll do my best. Until next time!

Yours Truly,
Beth

I'm back xoxo

Hey everyone!

So I'm back and ready to make this one of the best blogs you've come across. So I'm going to be blogging everyday with the exception of Sundays and each day is going to have its own theme. I will list the themes down below and I really hope you guys enjoy this new idea I came up with. I really enjoy blogging and interacting with people who also have the same passion as me. I think blogging is a fantastic way to communicate with other people with the same interests and like I've said, it's something I truly enjoy doing.

 Hope you all enjoy
xoxo

P.S. If you all didn't know, I do have a YouTube channel now. If you would like to check it out I will link it below along with any other social networks I may have.

Yours Truly,
Beth


Mondays: On Mondays, the posts are going to be about something motivational. I know Mondays can sometimes be difficult to handle because they are technically the start of a long week after a long weekend so this post will sort of give everyone a push and hopefully motivate them for the rest of the day and even week.

Tuesdays: On Tuesdays, the posts are just going to be an" outfit of the day" of what I wore that day, giving that my blog is mostly about fashion

Wednesdays: On Wednesdays, the posts are going to be about everyday fashion consuming us and what inspires us and I want to basically bring in social networks into this post such as tumbler. I know it may sound confusing right now but hopefully it'll make sense once I do the first post.

Thursdays: On Thursdays, the posts are going to be another "outfit of the day" post because I know a lot of people love seeing fashion posts like those

Fridays: On Fridays, the posts are going to be splurging posts. What I mean by this is that I'm going to post something recent that I would love to splurge on and then find similar dupes that cost way less. I know I'm someone who loves to save money so this post will definitely  be for those who love to spend but at the same time save.

Saturdays: On Saturdays, the posts are going to be random. Some may be just updates while others can be book reviews, some great fashion finds that I must share with you all, or possibly and outfit of the night.

-These are all just ideas that may change depending on the amount of positive or negative feedback I get back. 

*Tomorrow is going to be my first official post*

Denim//Floral Kind of Day








This past Sunday was such a beautiful day out here in Chicago. The sun was out and the wind was blowing and I couldn't help but wear a dress. Don't you love those days where the the weather is so nice and relaxing it's makes you want to just sit down drink some tea while reading a good book? Well that was exactly my day on Sunday lol. I hope you guys enjoyed<3

Este pasado Domingo fue un día tan hermoso aquí en Chicago. El sol se dejo ver y hubo un viento tan hermoso que no pude contenerme y decide ponerme un vestido. No les encantan esos días cuando el clima esta tan bonita y relajante que lo único que quieres hacer es sentarte bajo el sol y tomarte un te y a la misma vez leer un buen libro? Pues eso mismo me pase haciendo el domingo jaja. Espero que les haiga gustado mi vestuario<3
