Inspiration In Small Corners



Over stacked with fashion magazines on my living room side table. So much inspiration in one little corner. 




Though I often get tiered of wearing the same polish on my nails, and change it about every three days, I really liked this fun design I made on my nails. This was inspiered by a dress a saw in May's Elle magazine. I used a dotting tool to make the dots and free handed the "roses". I failed at the roses, but from far away you can guess they are some type of flower. Due to today's event I have to change my manicure to a classic red.







I will be taking lots of pictures from today. My Fiance and I will be attending the annul 50th Anniversary Gala for his job. I finally found an elegant evening gown which I can't wait for him to see. Time to get ready!
Much love,
Belinda Selene

Wedding Planning #1


The wedding planning has officially begun! We are looking for the perfect venue and I have also started looking for a florist. I want to ask my bridal party to be a part of our day in a very special way. I'm going to give them a gift including flowers. (Stay tuned to see how I ask them.)


With all of the planning, which at first can be very overwhelming, I need to get organized and bought the cutest little set of stationary to jot down important notes. How adorable is this?!? One of my best friends, Alexandra, gave me a very special book to help guide me through this wonderful experience. I also wanted to share this pale pink nail lacquer, from Butter London's Teddy Pink,  for my brides-to-be. It matches any outfit and it compliments your ring. I feel extra feminine wearing this on my nails.



I came home to a surprise in the mail from www.Tomsaccessories.com which included the sweetest note. They made me feel very special. It read:

Belinda, congratulations to you and your fiancĂ©! 
Here are some words to live by with
your Hubby-to-be =)
-Yaz
" I would rather share one lifetime with you
than face all of the ages of this world alone."
-The Fellowship of the Ring
 I was so excited to find these inside! Perfect for spring and all of the events I will be planning.

My eyes are so dry and tiered. Ricardo and I stayed up until 3am having a marathon of Pretty Little Liars. He's such a good Fiance to sit next to me for several hours watching it. I am hooked! Can't wait to catch up with this season.

Much Love,

Pink Obsessed! I'm a sucker for cute packaging!





I am a huge sucker when it comes to cute packaging. If I could paint the world one color it would definitely be PINK! It's my personality, very girly! So whenever I see something pink it immediately catches my attention! Ricardo (my bf) calls me a cat! Ha ha! I guess the same way a cat gets distracted with shiny things that's how I am when it come to anything pink.

But I can't help it. In the long run I tend to spend more money too. Usually items (beauty or not) that come in prettier colors like a purple or something tend to be more expensive than your average black and white. Companies know it too because they hype up the price because they know your willing to pay more for it, like me (guilty!).

For example I don't need a $20 hair spray but I just had to get it, didn't I? I was fighting with myself. Belinda you don't need it! Yes I do it has rhinestones! So I gave in and not only bought the hairspray but the root lift too. All of the items in the picture I bought simply because of the packaging and ended up loving! Most of them are now my "holly grail" must-have beauty items.
