Gracefully Dating

Have you ever heard of the partner you choose, is a reflection of yourself?

“You can tell how much you love yourself by your partner.” The first time I’ve ever heard someone say that, made me think twice. I took some time off from the dating world to recharge. Learning what my likes and dislikes are. And what were my non-negotiable’s.

If they like you, you’ll know. If they don’t, you’ll be confused.

From recent experiences, a maturer partner suits me well. Someone who knows who understands and respects boundaries that shouldn’t be crossed. I also make a pros/cons list which helps me narrow down who my person is. Don’t let anyone treat you less than you deserve whether the dating pool has pee in it or not. There’s also no need to rush, because your person will simply find you before you know it. People make time for what they want regardless of their situation. Date with intention and give yourself grace.

Dream Destination

Welcome back!!! I had to update you about my recent experience! I know it's been a while but I recently had a milestone birthday in Dubai. It took me forever to choose an actual place to celebrate but I decided to travel 13 hours to see my dream destination. A straight flight at that and I flew Emirates because who else would I choose to fly with.

Sofitel Dubai The Palm Hotel

Flying with Emirates: let’s just say I’ve never experience flying like that and I would do it again and again. (chef’s kiss)

I went inside the tallest building in the world which is the Burj Khalifa and it’s 2,717 feet.

I celebrated my birthday at the elements of Dubai located in the Atlantis hotel. (Top tier hotel)

Let It Go

Fall is here!

My favorite season is upon us and I’m ready to get cozy with a French vanilla latte of course. My soft girl era has returned and when I mean soft like anything 100% cotton or cashmere will be touching my skin only. I need the sweaters, Uggs and yes I still wear lulu lemon. Comfort is a must and sometimes cutting people off can also be a factor as well. Time to let go and make room for growth, if it’s not serving you than maybe it’s time.

Let that friend go! Let that job go! Let that man go!

Make space for your peace and stop blocking your blessings!

Move On And Let Go:

Now is the time to remove anything that might be holding you back or keeping you down. If you’re not growing you’re dying. Where there is no progress, there is no growth. Fall has a beautiful way of showing how easy it is to let go. There’s no growth in the comfort zone, but you knew that!

Unwind and De-stress

How To Stay Afloat In This Chaos

Since the year has started how are those resolutions working out for you?! Juggling a 9-5 and it has been a whirlwind from what we see in the media to as simple as buying overpriced eggs. We take so much on throughout our daily lives. Sometimes the day will drag you and that’s why it is important to unwind and find your happy place.

Laneige Products

Some things I do to de-stress:

  • Eating salmon, Avocados, Dark Chocolate, Nuts, Berries, Yogurt, Eggs and Spinach are all happy foods (that increases serotonin)

  • Apply Laneige sleeping mask (saving grace for dry skin)

  • Use Dennis Gross Facial Steamer (perfect for cleaning pores)

  • Apply Topicals under eye patches (great de-puffer)

  • Use L'Occitane Immortal Divine Youth Oil (extra moisture, I add it to my face moisturizer)

  • Take Zinc supplements (before bed, maintains skin hydration and elasticity, repairs the immune system and prevents hair loss)

  • Take Magnesium (for better sleep)

  • Taking a WARM Shower (stress relief)

  • Book a Spa Day (massages are a life saver)
