It’s crazy how times flies and the saying: everything happens “in the blink of an eye” is so true. It’s been 2 years that I’ve been in this blogging world and even though it’s not what I envisioned because I wish I could post more often, it’s still something I take pride in and love to do. I’m always saying that I am going to be more consistent with my posts but unfortunately, we live in a world that can get unpredictable – anyway, shut up Cristina! Onto the fashion, please (lol).

“Summer Summer Summer time” Summer is unbearable in Miami, I feel like this year has been brutal … it feels like you’re a melting popsicle that has been left outside in the hot sun. This anniversary I didn’t fancy it up like I did for my first year anni. I went for a very summery look – a loose denim off-the-shoulder dress. This cute little denim dress is light and breathable for being denim material yet if you’re looking for a tighter piece, this dress also comes in a more fitting style. Another item that has resurfaced after being gone for years are choker necklaces. I remember being little and wearing the black plastic ones everywhere and now they are back in style!

I have been looking for the perfect choker necklace and hadn’t really come across any that I fell in love with. I was in Hobby Lobby and decided to roam around the store and ended up in an isle that had every color suede cord and the light bulb in my head turned on to make my own necklaces. So I bought the same color cord as my shoes and made a choker – it worked out great. Onto my fav part of the outfit: my shoes! These heels are so comfortable because they have a chunky heel and the caged look is fitting on your foot. I hope you enjoyed this post and hopefully, I can continue blogging more outfits to keep doing what I love. Happy 2nd Birthday, Mimosa and Pumps!!!!!!!!!

I’m back, bitchessssss!!!!! After a long hiatus, I’m back and I’m here for good (I promise). I intend to stay and slay *Beyonce voice*. The start to my 2016 was very rough and I let that get my spirits down in a way I shouldn’t have. The only good thing I got out of the new year was my awesome boyfriend! Let’s save that for another time, on to the fashion. Spring time has arrived and it’s my favorite season … well, maybe I’m being a bit bias because it just so happens to be my birthday month, too! Happy Birthday to me!!!

When I saw this dress I could not stop thinking about it because the colors just so happen to be the go-to colors announced for Spring. When I first heard of the colors, I was hesitant because I didn’t know how Rose Quartz and Serenity (which are pale pink and pale blue colors) would mix in a outfit. When I put this outfit together – I initially went with a nude bag and a pair of nude heels but then stopped myself and thought: “What would happen if you threw in a pop of color to bring out the dress, Cristina?” It’s true what they say: “Always go with your gut feeling because it will never disappoint you.”
When I saw the outfit hanging on the hanger, I fell head over heels for the color contrast. As for footwear, I went with simple nude heels to keep the focus on the dress and bag … oh and not to mention my crazy hair-bun (lol)! Hopefully this helps you to stretch your color pallet by taking risks and mixing colors you normally wouldn’t. Happy Birthday to me and to all my April/Aries babies! May your birthday be filled with love, health, and prosperity.

Suede and button-up skirts … can you say yes? YES!!! I know you’re all probably calling me an outfit repeater but sorry, no outfit repeater over here. Even though this style is very similar to the Hide and Go chic post, the only thing that changes are obviously, the colors (but again these colors for fall are perfection: all warm tones). This skirt is comfy and so easy to pair with anything – for this look, I went a little balls deep with suede and threw in horizontal lines, leather, and lace up heels but in my opinion, it paid-off. I felt like a school girl with the backpack but let’s get real, a sexy school girl (lol) Halloween passed, Cristina!!!

The camel color on this skirt is rich and is another trending color for fall. This shirt is quarter sleeve with a scoop neck style but I love the way the outfit pops with the colors, textures and lines. I went with my infamous lace-up heels and, I have to be honest with you girls, is one of my most uncomfortable heels and would not recommend them. It’s like my foot grew overnight because it would not fit in the shoe! So if I had to pick another heel, I would definitely go with black Jeffery Campbell Litas that probably would have made this outfit that much better but … oh well, on another occasion.

This cute, leather backpack is spacious and so stylish! I usually use it when I go on vacations and need a big bag to fit all my junk. I wanted the focus to remain on the skirt and backpack purse so, I went light on the accessories. Hopefully, you enjoy this look and stay tuned for more future fall looks!

I’m so grateful to be able to attend events as a fashion blogger and getting to experience new places, new things. I was able to attend an event at the Hyatt Centric South Beach that Y100 hosted for the IHeartMedia event. The hotel is beautifully put-together and located in the heart of South Beach on 16th and Collins. I have to be totally honest, I went through numerous outfits before I came across this little number and it wasn’t a easy process. When I went back for the second time to the Agaci store, I was clueless until I came across this skirt – the structure of the skirt is unique and had everything in one. From the olive color (which is so in for the fall season), to the pockets and the tie around belt … and of course, that slit right in front of the skirt. For the top, I took a risk and was a little hesitant on the color only because red isn’t a fall color but once again, pat on my back because this color combo was knocked out of the ball park. The lace detailing on the shirt is perfect and also, not too sheer so I was able to wear a nude bra. I went simple for the shoes and stuck to my nude Steve Maddens (so comfy), the clutch was also nude to have the focus remain on the top and skirt. Hopefully everyone can stop by the Hyatt Centric South Beach and enjoy a cocktail in the lounge area over looking South Beach. Stay tuned for more fall looks!

P.S. Sorry for the pictures, we had a little mishap and had to use an IPhone to take pictures but they still came out awesome!!! Thank you Jessica, of course the best ever.

That’s it peeps!! This is officially my last summer post; hence, the title. I went with an all white look since Labor day already passed haha. What saying or rule has ever stopped anyone from wearing what they wanna wear, anyway? This top is my new obsession … like for real, for real, it’s perfect in so many ways. Not only can I wear it again with a skirt but I can pair it with jeans and denim shorts. Come on people, what more can you ask for from a top?! I recently wore this top to brunch with my bestie and got caught up on her Euro trip. I went with this Ella top from Peace Love World. The top is truly amazing and to give a little bit more information for the ladies – I don’t have to wear a bra! Sorry but for those of you who know me know I’m recently obsessed with not wearing bras – yuck gross! Just the word “bra” kills me!

I went with a white mini skirt because I wanted to show the dressier side to this top. I purchased the skirt in Marshalls, and by the way people, this is my store. I know you ladies hate looking through those racks but trust me, it pays off when you come out paying $10 for a skirt that another store is selling for triple the price. I wanted to keep it neutral and classy so I stuck to nude Steve Madden heels. Omg, you would think Steve Madden pays me for advertising his shoes so much but they don’t trust me!! I just find them so comfy and so effing cute, my god! I added a rose gold envelope clutch from Rack to Closet which is so fabulous and fits everything and of course with anything white, I like to layer on necklaces and see how long it takes me to get annoyed by them choking me by the end of the night. I just find layering necklaces really gives a outfit that extra “humf” and touch. Now, farewell summer you were awesome to me but way too hot! I’m ready for it to cool down so I can start layering and wearing all my olives and fall colors.

Very in this Spring and Summer has been the denim overalls and romper trend. Not just saying it because it’s one of my go-to looks, and because it just so happens to be the easiest outfit for me to put together. Not every shade of denim can be paired together to make a Texas tuxedo, it takes the right shades of denim to make it work and work right. So when I came across this denim romper in Marshalls, the image that popped into my head was the show “That’s 70 Show” something Mila Kunis would wear back then (lol). This trend is very in and I believe it’s going to stick around just like the birks, and wide leg pants have! I went for this outfit because it’s so Miami-summer appropriate not to mention it can totally be transitioned into fall, as well. I went with nude lace up heels to dress it up and give it more of a modern yet old feel. Threw on a floppy hat because it called for the occasion and my huge purse and called it a day. This is a look I would totally rock, it’s very groovy and so me (haha).

Summer style, to me, is basically dressing in summer dresses and shorts. It pains me to even have to put on jeans in this horrific heat. This off the shoulder dress is the perfect print, and the style can be worn with sandals and a belt around the waist for a lunch date. I recently wore it (Instagram) for my momma dukes b-day dinner. I love that it’s off the shoulder because it gives it that sexy yet elegant look. For sure this LA Hearts dress stole my heart and the floral pattern was just the icing on the cake. For the shoes, I went neutral with nude wedges to keep the focus all on the dress and of course, this fabulous fringe clutch from Steve Madden. I was iffy mixing the clutch with the dress but again I took the risk and I’m sorry but I did a damn good job! (lol) Hopefully this helps you ladies pull the perfect summer look.

Okay so what can I say, this chick is so ready for her Sundays and Monday nights to go back to normal. Not only am I a fashion blogger but I just so happen to be obsessed with football and especially with the Chicago Bears!!! Since football season is back – what better way to welcome it back other than with fashion (besides the wings and beers lmao!) There is nothing worse than shopping for game day pieces and all you find are jerseys with no shape, team tees in pink, and tees with sparkles. Like come on, get real. Not every girl wears pink, and not every girl wears sparkles … especially for football apparel. I’m extremely picky when it comes to game day gear. I like team tees that I can wear with a variety of options like jeans, shorts, and sneakers. I prefer a jersey but to me, team-logo tees last longer because I can wear them year round even when football season is on hiatus.

On to the sports fashion part of the segment! I’m usually not one of those girls that goes to any sporting events with heels and all dolled up like ever, so not me! That’s more of a “WAGS” style not mine but since this is a blog, I kind of have to show the dressier side to attending a game and the casual side as well. I paired this Chicago Bears v-neck with high wasted shorts because for me to wear jeans or white pants would just not be real of me tbh. I’ve given you two options for your shoes – I know there are women out there that enjoy wearing heels or wedges because they like it so I put on my most comfiest wedges I own to give you an example of how it’ll look. My personal preference is usually sneakers and obviously, has to be team colors so blue converses it is. If it so happens to rain, I usually take a bears jacket for back up so if your team tee gets covered by your jacket – your still repping your team. Happy football season, and bear down!!

Happy 1st Birthday Mimosa and Pumps!!!

I can’t believe that it’s been one year since I started this incredible journey! Happy birthday to my baby, my pride, and joy. I’m over the moon and very proud of myself for putting on my big girl panties and deciding to start this fashion blog! It hasn’t been easy but it’s been worth every single step. I’m so happy I’ve been able to collaborate with such amazing people like AlectricVisuals and attend so many events, and was even asked to be a special guest blogger for the first time at the Fashom event I attended.

Now on to all the mushy-gushy stuff (I feel like I’m receiving an award! lol), I want to thank everyone – especially my friends and family who have pushed me and told me to follow my heart and dreams and never give up because I belong in this blogger world. I want to thank my mom and brother who put up with my annoying a**! and all my questions: “Does this outfit go with these shoes?” “Does this outfit look good together?” (lmao) 😀 To the most important person, the one I owe the biggest thank you to, is Jessica Rivas. The lady behind the lens, without her my blog would not be here and wouldn’t have the most amazing pictures it has today. I would be so lost without you and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do for me and this blog. I love you and appreciate you so much. To all my love bugs (my followers), my blog would not be as successful as it is without you – thank you all for your constant support, means so much to me, I love you all!!!

On to the fashion portion, my specialty! I wanted to do a completely different look than what I usually go for. I wanted to choose a fancy, classy yet fabulous outfit. I went with this navy blue midi-skirt from Agaci which I instantly fell in love with. I was iffy because of the length and puffiness but the hell with it! My height isn’t going to stop me from wearing this gorgeous piece. For the top: I was debating on this top or a similar one in white lace and decided to stick with this one because I wanted the focus to remain on the skirt and shoes. These shoes are to die for … right? lol I wanted something more appropriate because of the fanciness of the skirt and since I didn’t have much color on, I went with a pop of color on the shoes. The jewelry i went for a very minimal touch because I was focused on the cup of mimosa (duh, it is my blog name) and of course, had to do the balloons and confetti – it’s a party!! Thanks again to everyone that has showed support and so much love, I appreciate it and can’t wait to continue to grow and collaborate on this catwalk.

So I don’t know about y’all but I have to have coffee in the morning in order to even function for the remainder of the day. I decided to go for more of a 70’s look because these House of Harlow high-rise flare jeans are so in style right now and fashion trends from the past are coming back! These jeans are so flattering and hug all the right places. The length of the jeans cause me to wear tall heels or wedges – and when I wear flare-cut denims, I always lean more towards high wedges for that extra “oomph” because god knows I need it due to my 4″11 height! It was only right that I added a camel colored floppy hat to match the color of the heels which you can’t see but makes me feel good inside that I match always. To go with my hat and 70’s style, what better sunnies than circle sunglasses? Yes please! Then, I added this black cross body bag from Forever21. I didn’t do to much with accessories here for this look due to the jeans being the statement and the hat, but I did go with three gold rings and some Alex and Ani bracelets that i never seem to take off. My vision for a 70’s boho vibe came out perfectly.
