Summer Trend: Bright & Flashy

    As a kid I loved temporary tattoos, they came in awesome designs and you applied them with only water. So basically some genius took this idea and sophisticated it. This type of  " temporary adult tattoo" is nothing new, but Flash Tattoos are different because they have a metallic finish and are mostly worn to resemble jewelry.  This trend is sooo hot right now, that in a  lot of places its sold out!  

 Cuando era una niña, me encantaban los tattoos temporales, habian diseños geniales y se aplicaban sobre la piel con agua. Básicamente un genio tomo esta idea y la sofistico. Este tipo de "tattoo para adultos" no es nada nuevo, pero los Flash Tattoos son diferente porque tienen un acabado metálico y se usan para imitar piezas de joyas femeninas. Gustan tanto los Flash Tattoos que en mucho sitios están agotados!





               They were first seen at Coachella, being worn by Alessandra Ambrosio

Rainbow Hair Trend

Summer means: longer and hotter days, beach parties, awesome music festivals and of coarse bright colors.This trend has been gaining fans since last year, with the dip-dyed trend but now it´s all about the total colored hair or color streaks.

 El verano significa: calurosos y largos días, fiestas en la playa, festivales de música estupendos y por su puesto colores vivos. El dip-dye  ha sido una tendencia  muy seguida desde el año pasado pero ahora se lleva con algunas mechas o totalmente colorado con tizas o tintes semi permanentes.   



Celebrities have really enbranced this trend and they serve as great inspiration!

Muchas famosas se han apuntado a esta tendencia y nos sirven de gran inspiración! 






To achieve similar looks you can choose between  hair chalk or non permanent hair dye. You can remove the coloring after several washes. Perfect for when you have to show up on Monday to work looking Chic&Clean, but you actually spent the weekend at a crazy rave party with your awesome rainbow hair.

Para lograr un look parecido podemos escoger entre las tizas para cabello (Hair Chalk) o tinte semi permanente. Usando las tizas, el color desaparece después de un solo lavado y es perfecto para salir de fiesta el fin de semana y tengas que presentarte impecable al trabajo el lunes.


Here is a list of some of the products you can purchase online to get the look. First lets look at Hair Chalks


  • Splat   (Longer lasting color than other hair chalks)

    • Splat Washable



    • Moonar Compact Hair Chalk   (Really cheap alternative)

    • Multicolor Hair Chalk Sticks  (Cheap alternative)   Ebay 12 pack

    Use semi-permanent hair dyes for looks post above of Kesha,  Kelly Osbourne or Katy Perry. After a few weeks color fades but it´s still visible. Now here is a list of my picks:


    Usa estos tintes semi permanentes para lograr looks como los vistos anteriormente en Kesha, Kelly Osbourne o Katy Perry. Después de varias semanas, el color pierde intensidad  pero aun es visible en el cabello.


    • Crazy Color  (Cheapest alternative)

    Tooty Fruity.... Summer Trend

     This summer season, the latest craze are pineapples. They are everywhere, crop tops, bags, jewelry and even phonecases!!!!


    Este verano, la ultima sensación son las piñas. Estan por todas partes, tops, bolsos, joyas y carcasas para smartphones.



    When I think of pineapples what comes to mind is Spongebob Squarepants and his crazy pineapple house.Who knew pineapples could be so fashionable!?


    Cuando pienso en piñas solo me viene a la mente las casa de Bob Esponja. Quien iba a saber que las piñas fueran tan fashion!? 



    This pineapple craze began with Moschino´s "Cheap and Chic" 2013 spring collection. Which featured a pineapple print in dark tones and they even took out really cute cross body bags!


    La fiebre por las piñas comenzó con la colección de primavera 2013 "Cheap and Chic" de Moschino. 


    What do you girls think of this trend?  Fun or  for people with bad taste?  Personally I´m going to dive into this trend. I think it´s a fun way to add a little bit of summer to an outfit and I also think that only during summer we´re allowed to wear wild colors and outfits. So why not?


    Que os parece esta tendencia?  Divertida o de mal gusto? Personalmente me voy a sumar a esta tendencia. Pienso que es una manera divertida para añadir un toque de verano a un estilismo y también pienso que solo durante el verano se nos permite vestirnos de colores vivos y atrevidos.

    I got two facial products for only 10€  +  a gift  + 3 small product samples.With any purchase you can choose a gift!!!


    Escogí dos productos faciales por 10€  +  regalo  + 3 pequeñas muestras. Con cualquier compra puedes escoger un producto de regalo!!




    I absolutely love this company not only for their products but beacause they care about the planet. They use recycled plastic and will plant 50 million trees by the end of 2014. Also by buying products from their "I LOVE MY PLANET" line you help plant a tree.



    También me gusta esta marca porque usan recipientes de plástico reciclado y están comprometidos ayudar el planeta. Por cada producto que compres de la linea "I LOVE MY PLANET"  ayudaras plantar un árbol.

    DIY Almond Scrub

    Days are getting warmer and Spring is on the way, and us girls need to start getting ready for cute tops, shorts and skirts! To help you all prepare, I am going to share with you this great scrub "recipe"  for exfoliating extra dry skin.

     Llega la primavera y necesitamos prepararnos para llevar faldas y camisas bonitas, asi que voy a compartir una "receta" para exfoliar una piel muy seca.

    You will need:
    • 1 cup of brown sugar     (tza azúcar)
    • 8 Tbs of almond oil     (cda aceite almendra)
    • 20 drops of vanilla essential oil    (gotas aceite esencia de vainilla)


     Now let´s talk about the ingredients and the benefits they have on our skin: sugar is the main ingredient and it´s perfect for gentle exfoliation, the almond oil is great for hydrating the skin because it contains vitamin E and finally the vanilla essential oil gives it a pleasant smell and helps you relax through aroma therapy.

    Algunos de los beneficios de estos ingredientes son: la azúcar ayuda a exfoliar la piel suavemente, el aceite de almendra hidrata muchísimo la piel porque contiene vitamina E y la esencia de vainilla ayuda a relajarte atravéz de la aromaterapia.


    Once you have mixed up all the ingredients, store it in a jar and give it a personal touch
