Dream Come True

Hey everyone!

I am really sorry for being away for too long!

So... Today I am going to share with you one of my favourite singers! His name is John Mayer, you probably know him as Katty's Perry ex-boyfriend!




Nowadays:

At the Grammys 


After,  I guess, 9 years likeing him, he is finally coming to Brazil! Firstly he was comig just for Rock in Rio, but then he decided to perform in São Paulo on his "Born & Raised world tour 2013"! And I am going!!!! It was one of the happiest days when I found it out!

Well, if you don't know him I am going to present!  He is a American boy, from Connecticut and he started his studies in music in Boston, but he decided to quit and then moved to Atlanta where started to become famous. His first album of all was "Room for Squares" and his new album is "Born & Raised". Also a few time ago he had cancer wich made him stop for a while, but now he is fine!

I started to like him when my father presented his first album to me... It was love at the first sight!
A few of my favourite songs:









There are many others that I love! If you liked him and you want to know more I would be glad to help, and if you knew him already tell me what is your favourite song!

2 in 1 Post

Hello everyone!

I am really sorry for being away for so long... I am so going to try to don't do this again ok?!

Well, as a apology today I am doing a 2 in 1 post! Ahahah  something that I just invented! So, I am going to talk about to things in the same post!

I have got some new makeup products that I'd like to share with you, but today I will talk about a nail polisher and about an iPhone lens.

So let's do it!



Well, as you all were able to see THE COLOR OF THE YEAR IS EMERALD! I got all this nail polish at the Sephora store! I don't really remember the price, but the color is pretty amazing, I would say, one of my favourite green color in a few times. So I have not tried this yet, but as soon as I know it's Sephora stuff, that's why I would say it is good!  The package is really practical, also is not just one nail polish are 3! I guess it is pretty worth it.  I went to the Sephora website to check the price and it is US$18.00 (no tax). You may think this is expensive, but it is not! If you compare with the package that comes just 1 and costs US$10.00 (no tax). 

Emerald have already been shown up on red carpet, bags, shoes, clothes and many others! 




 Louis Vuitton purse

Givenchy purse

Even Princess has being using it! 



Well this is my beauty/fashion advice for today!

Now the second subject! 

The pictures taken of the nail polish were taken by my iPhone camera! Yes it is true! I just had to use a Olloclip lens to create this amazing effects! 

The Olloclip lens is a 3 in one lenses that has Fish Eye, Macro and Wide Angle! The quality of the picture is excellent it is really practical! The price is about to US$69.99 (no tax). Here is a video:






Does anyone has one of this two things?! 

Tell me right down in the comments!

how to: write a trip diary



Hello everyone! How are you all? Some of you went back to classes today, I suppose, didn’t you? Luckly, I didn’t. In fact, now I’m writing from a quite unusual place. I’m on board. Yes, on a plane. Well, actually, when this post go up here in the blog, I’ll problably not be on board anymore, but now I am. I’m on my way to Santiago, Chile and there’s a little chance that I’m crossing the Andes mountain range right now. The flight have been really nice so far and there’s no signal of storms and these stuff out there in the sky, thank God!
So, I was wondering I could share with you the most pleasant and wonderful way that exists to make a trip unforgettable, which is writing a trip diary. I know it seems quite old-fashioned, but you cannot believe how grateful it it is to sit down after a long time has passed since your trip, and bring back to your memory all the great moments you spent with your family in that journey.
It’s quite easy to write it, so I’ve done a simple guide containing 6 quick tips for you. Check it out:

1)      Get a nice diary. The notebook itself represents your personality. And you may keep it for several different trips during a long time, depending on how much you’re gonna write on it. This is mine:


2)      Start writing it before the trip begins. Write down where you’re going, how many days you’re going to stay there, your expectations… It all brings to your trip diary a truth feeling, like you’re getting ready to go on your trip.

3)      If it’s possible, add pictures and maps mixed with your notes. If you can’t print any image where you’re going to stay, save some spaces to put them on right after you get home. Digital pictures are great, but paper ones are the best.

4)      Write it at the end of the day. I suggest this moment to write down your notes simply because you can do a quick resume everything you’ve done in that day. Take a shower and separate 15 minutes before you go to your bed. You’ll be feeling tired, I’m not gonna lie. But it worthies at the end.

5)      Make headers. It turns the reading easier. I’d suggest your header to have your current location, the date and the time.

6)     Keep all the tickets, cards, flyers and ads you may find interesting. Even if they don’t fit in your diary, put them in a envelope, write down the trip information on it and keep it with your diary.

So that’s it. If you’re still on holidays, and you’re going on a trip, be sure that writing a trip diary doesn’t take so much as it seems. It’s a nice, personal and pleasant way to make your trip unforgettable. Wanna tell me some trip experience, if you ever wrote a trip diary or whatever it is, write down in the comments!
I’ll see you very soon,

2013 - Let It Start!

Hello everyone! How are you all, cutie things? Soooo, if you didn't realise it yet, IT'S 2013 yay! I don't know about you, but I'm quite excited about this year so far. I can see a lot of great things coming for us and I have so many expectations and plans in my mind... That's why I'm doing this post! I'm gonna share with you my ''To Do'' list for 2013 (and pretty please, SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH ME DOWN IN THE COMMENTS!).
So, here we go:

  1. To start, I want to take photograph lessons. I've got a professional camera for Christmas (here it is), so I'm quite excited to start taking great photos with it. 
  2. Re-design my bedroom. It's so basic and I got so bored with its decoration... I really need to change it. Ideas? Leave a comment!
  3. Fix my bad diet. This item is always on my 'to do' list, but let's make a pink promess right now: THIS YEAR, I'LL DO IT FOR GOOD.
  4. Study harder. I know it seems silliness and just another faulty item, but I really got to do this. And so do you, huh.
  5. Fix my social network addiction. These days, I went to sleep over my Grannys and my cellphone ran out of battery and I realised I just CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT INTERNET. And that's bad. That's really bad. I'll fix it.
  6. Take part on a social action or an NGO. My school has several nice social projects. It's time to let laziness aside and help people.
  7. Resume my piano lessons. Music had to be expelled from my schedule a time ago, but now, maybe, I could get a little time to play.
  8. Blog more. This blog is my dream, and now, with my new camera and great ideas, I promess that 2013 will be full of nice things around here.
  9. Arrange my writings. I have so many texts saved... I really need to organize them.
  10. Finally get courageous enough to make videos for you. What do you think?
That's just 10 of my thousands of plans for this year. Really, I have soooo many! What about all of you, beautiful people? Let me know what plans you have made for 2013! And together, let's make all of them become true!
