My Own Pocket of Sunshine

It was such a busy and fun weekend so I wasn't able to update you guys on any posts haha
but I'll share a few photos about saturday soon! This Saturday I had the pleasure of celebrating my cousin's 21st birthday at Wango Tango! My first ever concert and although we were far from the stage I had fun either way...although I must say it was a super long concert (at one point my cousin actually took a short nap at the middle of it ahaha). There were some really great singers that performed that day and I wasn't much of a Bruno Mars fangirl, but after hearing him live--let me tell you he is just exceptional!! His voice and his music is completely amazing! gahhh not to mention falling in love with Emeli Sande's voice along with Labyrinth. Gotta check them out if you haven't already!

All in all, it was just an awesome experience (thank you auntie for treating us cousins!)
I'll be updating more sooooon!
For now here's my outfit for the day.
Much love,

Ear Therapy

I have a wide range of music that I love feeding my ear. Whether it be something I understand or what not, if I'm feeling the beat or love the words, then I fully accept haha

Lets fall asleep to some of these late night sounds.

Goodnight.

Adventures in Striped Turtle Neck Dresses

Happy Wednesdays everyone!!
You know that feeling where you think it's close to the weekend and you start jumping for joy only to find it's just Wednesday...Wednesday...its like another Tuesday..I mean why Wednesday?!?!?!?! Well anyways, that's me right now. It's almost the end of another semester and I can't understand why school seems so exciting when going back, but becomes a drag towards the middle of it. You'd think I'd get used to this feeling haha (Mind the endless random rants of a 21 year old college student.)
Lets just focus on this lovely striped turtle neck dress from Sugarlips! Again - my love/obsession for back details - this dress just became perfection for me with its little "sneak peak" of a back! Its like that expression of business in the front and party in the back expression ahaha I can't believe I used that connection o.O but I'm sure you all understood me..yes? maybe? no?

Be back soon!

With love,
Heliely

Blacks & Grays in Rainy Days

In love with this maxi skirt from Sugarlips Apparel, once again making such a huge impression on me.I wasn't really into maxi skirts - or long skirts for that matter - but after trying this one out and pairing it with a nice top (from Naked Zebra - site here -), it made me change my mind on a few things haha like how I should really cut the hanger straps on tops and that I should listen to the weather forecasts -___-" To think I'd just give the gloomy weather a shrug and an "oh well" and just wear a skirt anyways...in the end it rained annnddd...you can think of the rest from there.

Hope you all had an awesome Tuesday!

With love,
Heliely

Geometric Dresses + Bowler Hats

Hey everyone!! I know I know, long and overdue outfit update. It took a while, but here it is! This amazing geometric dress was from Sheinside.com, if you all haven't heard about them check out their site here! I was jumping for joy when I was contacted to collaborate with them because I've always loved their clothes!
Working with online stores - still to this day - seems so surreal to me, I am more than blessed and thankful to be working with each one of them. I truly couldn't have asked for more. Praise God!! haha
Well, I hope you all are doing fine and dandy, my weeks consisted of stress and just loads and loads of problem solving. I guess you can say it was a life changing one, there's a lot of growing up and a lot of responsibility that came out of these past few weeks and although I felt like giving up on a lot of things, God kept me through each and every one of my struggles. I have more than enough, and every single experience has taught me to let go of my pride, give everything to God, and just have faith. I think the hardest thing is to let go, because once we let go, we find ourselves scared out of our minds that we aren't in control...but that's how God works - and let me tell you its amazing.
Just let go and let God.
That's that.

Hope you all the best & talk to you all soon!

With love,
Heliely
