I’m at a stage in my life where I am focused on making myself happy and the only sort of commitment I see in my near future are those that will help me reach my goals. I have realized that the only person standing between my dreams is myself. The fear of being judged and the fear of failure is what keeps us from going out and chasing our dreams, but it shouldn't hold us back. You are capable of achieving anything you set your heart and soul to. When I started ' Estilo Lau' I was terrified of what people might think of me, but why would I ever let anyone dictate my happiness?. Whether your dreams are to start your own blog, or become a doctor no dream is unreachable. Do whatever it takes to make your dreams a reality. Don't let 'fear' stop you from getting there. Taking the first step is the hardest part but trust me once you start living out your dreams you will begin to question why you didn't do it sooner.
"Street Lights, Big dreams all looking pretty. No place in the world that can compare"
I am currently in New York City on vacation and absolutely
loving everything about this fabulous city.
It feels amazing to be able to blog directly from the big apple. Everywhere you go in New York City you find
something that inspires you. From the street art in Time Square to the glamorous lifestyle of Upper East, new york city to me is my muse. No matter how many
times I visit I fall in love every single time.
During my visit I picked up some amazing
products for this months haul. I am so excited to recommend this life saving
hair and skin must haves to my lovely readers. If you are like me and you love using hot tools on your hair
and have tried every single cream, serum, and masque on the market and can’t
seem to get healthy looking hair than this post is for you ladies!
I have colored my hair so many times I already lost count. I
use hot tools practically every day and it has definitely taken a toll on the
look and texture of my hair. But since I
have been using this products I have noticed a dramatic change in my hair. My hair now looks and feels smoother and hydrated even though I have kept the same hair styling routine as before. I have been using this products for about a week and a half and have seen instant results. I found
that with other styling creams, deep conditioners and serums that I had used in the past left my hair feeling oily and dry .But I never lost faith and I
had herd about a couple of this products online and I decided to give it a
shot.

Cleansing Conditioner
Sweet Almond Mint
I actually came across this product on Tv and I was a bit skeptical. It has good reviews on television but you know how that goes. Sometimes those products turn out to be nothing like you expect it to be. But I went online and read some reviews and decided to try it. I like this product I wouldn't say I love it but it does smell really good and it definitely conditions my hair.
Mystic Divine Luminous Shine
Smoothing Masque
Contains Tahitian Tamanu Oil, Moroccan Argan Oil,
African Shea Butter and Camelia Oil. I am head over heels over this masque after damaging my hair with chemicals so often my hair has lost natural oils and my hair was in desperate need of some hair therapy. This is honestly like pixie dust for you hair. ladies this is a must have!
Skin Products | Products Para la Piel
Victoria Secret Bronze Instant Bronzing Tinted Shimmer Lotion

We are entitled to our own opinion and some
people may agree and others may don't. But at the end of the day it's no one’s business but your own what you do or don't do in your life. It takes a strong individual to come out in the public eye and say “this is me, this is who I am”.
I don't think being judged by others is the hardest part, but learning to love yourself again is. Whether you are straight, gay, bisexual or transgender none of those titles should devalue your true essence. We judge each other every day every second of the day, but it's just how life is. We can all sit around in a circle and sing kumbaya all day long and say we don't judge others but that's clearly a lie. It's an ugly habit but it takes an even stronger person to push through all the negativity and turn around and say " screw your stereotypes, this is me and I love me"
Your sexual orientation in my personal opinion
should not isolate you from the world, if anything it should be embraced.Loving yourself is the first step to happiness and if this makes you happy than be it. Be happy, be yourself and love yourself because you are beautiful inside out. The choices others make may be out of your comfort zone, but it doesn't concern you either. Someone really close to me has taught me what it means to love someone unconditionally, and what it means to fight for what you love. He has taught me to embrace who i am and taught me to be acceptant of
what's outside of the norm. It's hard for some people to accept the idea of
loving someone of the same sex or in this case being transgender, but it's not
something for you to accept it all comes down to being true to yourself and
loving the life you live. Love is the most powerful thing we have as people and
the one thing we all chase throughout our whole life’s. We all want that
infectious love that everyone envy's. If you are gay, bisexual, transgender or
straight know that who you are is more beautiful than what society is trying to
shape you to be.
Be true to yourself, live a selfless life filled
with love and respect for others.
I wanted to share with everyone a person that is really close to my heart, my uncle. For those who don't know me on a personal bases and are unfamiliar with the real meaning of my tattoo here it is.My uncel made a promise the day i was born to love me and always be there for me and not once has he failed to do so. He has overcomes some of life's toughest situations and even after being brought down has never stop loving life. He has taught me that it's okay to be "different " and it's okay to be yourself.He exposed me to a new side of life and showed me what real love feels like. Love has no boundaries or sexual orientation, it's something so powerful and real that it should be embraced.I am so proud and overcome with joy to share his story. Every time someone approaches me with the question " what does your tattoo stand for" I stand for him and for every other individual who is outside of the "norm"

plan what to wear for your first day, just to realize you have nothing to wear.

I am super excited to be writing about these amazing contact lenses I have recently been wearing from Spooky Eyes. I have never worn contact lenses before, mainly because I always found them to look to unnatural. I researched and found Spooky Eyes.Com, they offers a wide range of lenses that "mimic the natural coloration of the eye'' . They blend perfectly with your natural eye color creating a beautiful effect. I naturally have big brown eyes, so I knew that I would need lenses that had a hazel-green pigmentation in order to compliment my look. I choose to review The Party Green Contact Lenses. At first I had some difficulty with the application, it took me about four attempts before successfully putting the lenses in. But, I blame this on my lack of experience with contact lenses. I wanted my look to be very natural but yet edgy. I complimented my new hazel green eye color with the NARS Afghan Red Satin Lipstick to get that dramatic color contrast look.
I found that the pigmentation of the lenses really complimented my natural eye shape and color. They felt very comfortable most of the time I was wearing them, but since I am not use to wearing contact lenses on a regular bases it took my eyes a couple minutes to adjust. The fun part of contact lenses is being able to play with various eye shadow palettes that you typically wouldn't dare to wear. I choice to go with earth tones to compliment my look.
I would give Spooky Eyes Contact Lenses out of five:
Comfort 4.0
Pigmentation 5
Shipping 4.0
Prices 5
Selection 5
With over 500 designs for every occasion, you will surely find
Weather you are attending a Halloween party or you want a natural contact lenses to enhance your look, I would recommend giving Spooky Eyes Lenses a try.
