Feeling so happy, but not too sure
Reality hits me, and there is no cure
I look at the window to try to find tomorrow
Instead I see you staring back with so much sorrow
Telling me one thing while hearing another
I have no clue what I am about to discover
Feeling unhappy, but not too sure
Seeing your lies don't make me insecure
I fill up with pride as I sale this high tide
Looking forward, leaving this feeling behind
Memories so precious, once felt so new
With all your wonderful words feeling so true
Opening my eyes to see the present lies
A loud whisper beneath my eyes
Surrounded by a mirrored wall
Watching ironies fall
Feeling so happy, but not too sure
Reality hits me, and there is no cure

A topic that crosses every ones mind, but never really spoken about?

Hello bloggers and bloguettes!
Yes..bloguette is not a word..is it? Well then I just either made it up or completely ruined its spelling!

So, I guess this post can also be called" What I have been wanting to blog about for ages#2",but I thought that would be too boring of a title, since the topic I will go into is pretty broad, complicated and simple all at once. This topic has many reasons to why I am blogging about it, and many reasons to what leads into the actual thing I am going to talk about. I am not really sure how to put it, or what word to choose, but I will make it a simple word, and build it up as i type. Envy. Yes my lovelies, that is the topic I will go into today.
Envy is something that is never really admitted now in these modern days, but it is very, very easily decoded. Sadly This occurs ALOT among girls. Again, I am not trying to bring girls down, or say that we suck( I am a girl too, don't forget!), I am just trying to put out that we need to improve and stop these barriers. Barriers? exactly! Envy is a huge barrier. Envy is what does not let us get along with each other, what has us constantly comparing each other,putting each other down in a helpless manner. Envy does not let us be the people we are, and  blocks us from being happy..yet alone feeling happy.
The reason why I chose this topic today in particular is because I have noticed a lot of "fakeness" around, I have notice a lot of hating, and competition( that will never stop I don't think). I am sure at least one of you reading this post can relate, if not completely then maybe partially. Sadly many people say hi to each other and the minute they go separate ways they ought to be talking bad things about each other. The question is: If you don't like a certain person why are you still "friends" with that person? The answer to this one is simple. Many envious people get addicted to this cycle of putting others down just so they can feel better about themselves. When a person talks trash about you, it is obvious they just want to make you feel bad. Cause? Envy.
Girls constantly compare themselves to others and in their mind compete, and if in any way they do not feel they are "better" they start trying to ruin the image of the one they are trying to compete with.
My word of advice? It is normal to want to improve, in fact it is healthy as I think I have said before in my previous " what I have been wanting to blog about for ages" post. One thing I have learnt from other people including myself is, You can't be happy if you are not your self. Be your own personal best. The best part of it? No one else is like you which makes you stand out. Isn't it better to stand out rather than to blend in with the crowd? Instead of wishing what others have, lets work with what we have. Lets improve our selves to be the best version of ourselves. Instead of trashing someone down with horrible words or rumors, Lets compliment that person. The more we put people down or compare ourselves with others, the more dull it makes us look and feel. We can't be happy with ourselves if we are not happy with our surroundings.
Bottom line: There is nothing wrong with being yourself, no matter what others think. Peoples judgment does not matter. The reason why it affects us so much is because we have learnt to be affected by it. The people that do not like you for who YOU really are, aren't worth being around you.If people like "fake" then most probably they are "fake" too. If you cant have what you want, It might not be for you. Something better is out there for you. The key to life is patience.
Lets stop this envious cycle amongst each other, and instead, lets help each other make a difference in outlives and in the lives of others by being the people we truly are.

Keeping fresh!

This summer is getting hotter as the days go by. Keeping yourself hydrated is obviously very important. Having that in might I wanted to share a good snack with all of you. POMEGRANATE! yummiee. If you guys have not tasted it, or do not know what it is. I shall introduce :D Pomegranate is a fruit, and I am pretty sure it is available everywhere. It has loads of health benefits. Pomegranates are rich in anti-oxidents, and increase oxygen levels. It is a very refreshing fruit, and its juice is just as delicious. I recommend all of you to make this fruit a regular snack, especially during the summer.
Remember Keeping fresh during the summer is important, but staying healthy is important and vital through out every season!

Happy Mother's day!

Hello awesome readers!
I know today is not mother's day in ever country in the world, however it is in some, and in others it will be next week, or it perhaps already passed. Nevertheless, I would like to congratulate every mum out there, and wish every mum around the world a very happy mother's day.
I know many people that don't really celebrate this day, or may not see the importance in it, since after all mother's day, is kinda every day.. or so we think it is. I would like to remind all of you how important it is to celebrate this day, or if you can't for whatever reason, to just keep your mum present in your heart this day. A mother is someone irreplaceable that we must value through out our lives, and sometimes take the fact that we have one for granted. Lets all think for a moment, our mothers have always cared and loved us( and still do) more than anything in this world. A mothers love is irreplaceable and can't be compared. Weather we have the privilege to know and be with our mum's or not, thanks to that wonderful being( our mum) we are here. No matter the situation we might be in, or relationship with our mothers, lets do one thing this mothers day: lets make this day special and unforgettable by showing all our love and care to our mothers. Lets let them know how we appreciate them and admire them, how we consider them and love them endlessly. Let's get rid of any resentment there might be because that is not good for anyone of us. If our mums aren't with us, then lets keep them present in our hearts and thank life for giving us such an amazing person that gave us life.
A mother is just one, there is no other. We must show them our love and consider them while we can. Life is short and time is too. Lets take care of them, and love them eternally just like they do for us.Being a mother is not an easy task at all, let's not take that thought for granted.
I guess mother's day is one of those days like valentines day( but more important, in my opinion)..you know you love the person, and the person knows it too, however it is important to dedicate a day exclusively just for that one person. We don't get to do that every day, thats what makes this day special. Lets take chances while we have them, and not regret anything.
So, once again A very happy mother's day to all mum's out there! We love you, and appreciate all the wonderful things you have done for us.
I would like to also say happy mother's day to all the grandmothers out there too..after mother's day is for every woman that is a mother! Thanks to our grandmothers, we have our mother's.
Happy mother's day to everyone. May you all have a wonderful day and live it up to the fullest!
Lots of love,

MissChiquitaxx


A mother's love is irreplaceable and incomparable.

Creative Inspiration

My fellow readers, as you might know according to my profile, I am into so many things, possibly ( well, its a fact..not possibility) more things that are not mentioned in my profile. My profile just names a few. However, one of my top things I am interested in and day dream about is Interior decorating. I am a young  Martha Stewart when it comes to interior decoration. I just love it, it makes me go all crazy and in love and lala, and woo. Anyways, back to the point of this post, Although I am creative and have a good taste( according to myself, we all have different opinions) I find pictures on the internet which inspire my imagination and give me ideas to decorate, or change stuff around in the house, or advice people, or simply for my own creative pleasure. I will share some photos on this post that I found on the internet which are a true inspiration to me. If you're into interior design like myself, I hope this inspires you and that you like my taste( although they aren't designs of my own, just my taste).

Inspire the artist within yourself <3

Cute and Simple

My gorgeous readers!
How are you all doing today?  The sun is shining, birds are singing and mosquitos are biting..indeed todays a spring day. haha, aside from the mosquitos, since the weather was beautiful today, I decided to take photos of my outfit today, and share it with all of you JUST like I have promised for ages.
SO guys..girls..readers. Here is is. Today I kept things simple, I did not want to over do things. This outfit is perfect for a casual day out, or  to the mall. Anything casual, and the colours are happy, and go perfect with the season. I wore  Dark Blue jeans, which are from Bershka, and an orange tube top from NewLook. I am usually a person that does not like the colour orange, but surprisingly it flatters my skin tone. Orange is one of those colours I guess you got to try even if you have doubts with it, and just work with it like I did.I also wore blue and white wedges, which are from Payless. They are so cute, I just can't get over it. For my accessories I wore, hoop earings and a flowered ring which is light orange. The light orange makes a lovely contrast with the top! My  accessories mentioned are from Forever 21.
I hope you like this simple yet cute outfit, and remember if you like the look, you can get a similar one since these articles of clothing are popular and easy to find, although they might not be the same exact.

Have a beautiful day, and Enjoy!

MissChiquitaxx










Almost forgot! My eye makeup that compliments this outfit :)

If you guys are interested on the products I have used to achieve this look, comment below

and I will list all of them out.

Green Charm..

Hello beautiful Bloggers!

I did a makeup look, and thought of sharing with you. All products used are affordable. This look is super quick and very easy to do. You can make it differently, by adding more shades, or removing shades.

Products used:

MAC concealer- for dark cirlces

'Essence Quattro' eye shadow pallet in "Wood you mind?"

MAC Black eye linger

A green eye liner

MAC Black Mascara

A blending brush

An eyeshadow brush

Note: you don't have to use these exact products. Use any of your favorite to create this look.

Lets begin the process ;)

A Primer should have been used, however I did not have one with me when I put this look together, so i used a creamy beige eyeshadow as a base instead so that the eye shadow would last longer and its colour would be more vibrant.
1.Apply concealer to your dark circles
2.Apply primer or base( like I did in this case) to your eye lid, and brow bone
3.Apply Medium green eye shadow on your eye lid, except corner
4. Apply a lighter shade of green to the corner of your eye you just left out, and bled with a blending brush for a smooth look.
5.Apply dark geen( olive green) shadow you your creese, and outer corner of eye, same level as the creese, and blend so it looks even
6.Add a light green shade above creese, this makes your eye look brighter, and blend
7. Add a highlighter to the brow bone, the one I used has a tint of green. A mix between beige and green, but you can use which ever you think would look nice.

 Now that the eye shadow is done, add a thin line with your favorite eye liner to your top lid, I used a pencil eye liner, but you can also use liquid, After applying the eye liner, apply your favorite mascara to enhance your eye lashes. Falsies could also be used for a more dramatic look.

To your bottom lid, apply a dark green eye liner on your lash line starting at the inner corner of your eye, do not continue all the way. On the other half, add black eye liner. you can smooth out the line with a blending brush or even your finger. Last but not least, to pull off the look, add black mascara to your bottom lashes.

For the rest of your face: you can wear a peachy blush, Peachy tones compliment the green.
You can also wear a lipstick close to your lip colour. I don't advice any bright colours since the eye shadow is a little intense already. You can also use a brow pencil to fill in any gaps in your eye brows, like I did.

Thats the quick look! I hope you guys like it, and try it out. it reminds me of nature somehow. Its a nice look to wear during the day, or night.

I will talk to you guys later!

Shoes, shoes..shoes!

Hey everyone <3
How are you all doing? I hope your week is going by well.
 I have a tiny haul to share with you guys. As you can tell from the title of this post, the haul is on shoes! I am a person that loves shoes, as most girls. Shoes for me are important, not just because you obviously need shoes to walk in, but also because they pull the look of your outfit together. I guess what I am trying to say is that shoes are the "finishing touch" of the outfit sometimes.. unless your shoes are the main attention grabber.
These shoes that I am sharing with you are simple, comfortable shoes that can be worn all day with out making your feet feel tired. Despite their comfort, they look great!
Check them out!

-MissChiquita xx
* The shoes shown are from 'Aldo' and 'New look'. Check out their website if you want more details*


    Flip flops from Aldo. Very comfy to wear.
         They are shimmery from the top,  light beige- gold colour.
           Since the colour is light, They go well for spring.
 Spring reminds me of light pastel colours.



                                          
Top View of the flip flops.

Aldo Flats!  I find the white and black combination beautiful. These
flats are also available in beige with black tip, and in full black.
These shoes make any outfit look dressy. Perfect for a semi-casual look.
Adorable flats <3





SUPER CUTE black heals! I fell in love with these when I saw them.
These comfortable heals are from New Look, however they are from the kid's section.
They have all kinds of sizes in the Kids section, some sizes fit normal women sizes. These Black shoes come in big sizes,
They have a chunky heal which is not too high, and makes these shoes so comfortable.



Light brown shoes from New Look. Moccasin style, but more sophisticated.
They also make a good semi-casial look

Something I have been wanting to blog about for ages..

What is beauty?


Hello everyone! I am writing this post because I got greatly inspired from a lot of people today that spoke to me about what I am going to talk about. I often observe people and notice how they deal with things that I am going to talk about in this post.

I have noticed people criticizing themselves to the core. I have seen people look in the mirror and just seem so unhappy. I have heard people envy others on looks. Sadly, most of these people commenting on such things are girls! So, this brings me to one question: why cant girls be happy with themselves? Cz we aren't perfect?( we referring to girls in general) This brings me to another question: what is perfection? is it beauty? then, what is beauty? hmm...quite a thinker isn't it?
I shall answer these questions in my own way, and with my own opinion. We all think differently and have different definitions. This is mine:

Lets start with beauty:) Beauty can either have a deep meaning or superficial meaning. I will start with the superficial one since it is one of the most common. Every girl wants to look a certain way. Every girl has a certain goal to reach on looks in their mind. Its a human instinct to want to look good, and quite honestly its healthy. Looking good makes you feel good and psychologically makes you feel happy. Especially when others acknowledge your beauty. I believe every girl is beautiful, and quite honestly what makes each person beautiful is uniqueness. We are all different and special in our own way. We are all different shapes,sizes, colour. None of us are the same, which is amazing. Why would you want to look just like someone else? that would be boring. Your own personal beauty stands out because its different. Weather you notice it or see it is entirely up to you.There is one important thing we have to all realize and think.We are who we are till the end of time. We were born in our skin,we can't change it. So, why not embrace it and love ourselves for the beauties we are?

Now,the deep meaning of beauty. The deep side of beauty is the one that stays with you forever..thats why its deep, or as many say, inner beauty.I know all of you have heard this at least once or so, but here it goes.A beautiful individual( i'm focusing on women of all ages , since this blog is mainly viewed by girls,and i'm one myself :p)  isn't just the appearance , it goes deep into the soul of a person. A persons soul is well reflected on the persons appearance. When you are a loving, happy good person, it shows directly on you. That beauty will never fade, no matter how old you get or what happens. This kind of beauty i'm talking about, it the beauty that catches everyones eye because its pure, its real, and natural. Be the person you are and you will be happier. When you love yourself, it reflect on you.Be the person you are and you will be more confident. Be the person you are and embrace your inner beauty, recognize your virtues and you will keep on shining.

Either way, in beauty, weather its physical or not , you got to embrace what you have and love your self inside out. Love your self for you are, and love your self for how you look. Love each freckle , love each bit of yourself, because no one has what you have. You are you and you are special the way you are. If there is something bothering you badly about yourself, then change it! So, what if people criticize you. that shouldn't matter , because what matters is you! If you can't change something you're not happy with. Learn to love it :)

Perfection: As I mentioned beauty and my thoughts about it, it links to perfection. Perfection is our own definition of what we think about something. We need to understand, no body is perfect. No one on this earth is. No one.If we think someone is, then thats in our mind. What might be perfect to me, might not be perfect to you. The definition of perfection is long too, but I will go just into its "beauty" part of it, since its what i'm talking about. Perfection is what you make of it. Don't be harsh on your self, love your self as i said, and appreciate all what you have.

In conclusion, all i want to say to every girl out there is: Be happy with who you are. Learn to love your self. And allow yourself to actually see your beauty and virtues.

I'm sorry this post is sooooo long, but I just thought it is important to get these thoughts out there. I hear way to many girls put themselves down, and it is not fair.

lets be who we are <3

Lots of love,

MissChiquitaxx

Products of the month!

Hello everyone <3
How are you all doing today. I haven't blogged in a while since I had midterms, I was busy being a book worm :p If any of you had exams of some sort, I hope you all did great.
As I mentioned in my previous post, I have many products i've been loving, However I narrowed it to two main amazing products, which I think are a must have for this month!

First I will start by talking about the Victorias Secret perfume named "Angel". This is a soft fragrance yet it sinks in you, meaning it lasts. Its very summery and light. More of a daytime perfume. It has a deep sexy scent that I can not describe. I recommend it to all of you, at least to try out a sample of it. If you try it out, let me know what you think! I really love this perfume and use it frequently now. It just goes with the season. If you try it you might know what I mean :p

My second product of the month: For Valentines day I got a gift of different body washes, scrubs, butter, etc. It is from the body shop and it is limited edition. Its the chocomania collection. Firstly, I love the packaging of it. Its soooo cute! It comes in a heart shaped metal box, kind of like what chocolates come in.The products are also available separately, not just in a set. The scent is chocolate, and it has a hint of almond. It comes with a body wash, body scrub, and body butter. Each products feels really soft on your skin, and deeply hydrates it since it has almond in it. Almonds are very good for your skin, as well as almond oil. The scent is pretty sweet but soooo delicious. Literally, every time I open up the body scrub I feel like eating it! You smell like a chocolate cupcake afterwards. It is definitely worth trying out, especially since its limited edition. As well as the Victorias Secret perfume, if you try out this product, do let me know your comments about it.
Hope you all are having an amazing weekend.
speek to you soon! Take care.
MissChiquita xx




Victoria's Secret 'Angel'. I think the bottle speaks for its scent.
Its light yet deep. ( light pink, yet dark at the bottom).





The Body Shop's 'Chocomania' collection. As chocolatey as it looks like!
Leaves your skin extremely smooth, and smelling sooo but soooo good <3
PS: I forgot to mention. This 'Chocomania' set also comes with a lip balm! It leaves your lips sweet and smooth just like all products in this set.

Mini "pre summer" haul..and products of the month!

Since I haven't been on blog spot in AGES, I got tons of products I would love to share with you, however I've decided to start with my most recent ones first.
I went shopping about a week ago, and went to Forever 21. I got few accessories which I thought would be cute for summer. Summer always reminds me of bright colours and sunny days.. so I got bright accessories.
Also, I stopped by Victorias Secret and got an amazing perfume.This perfume is perfect for spring since its scent is so fresh, but it is also amazing for summer. It has an amazing fresh yet sexy scent. I cant describe the scent since its so good lol. It isn't fruity nor flowery, its just fresh. Definitely a day time perfume.
Last but not least, I got a set of body wash, butter, etc from the Body Shop as a Valentines gift. I thought I would share it with you since its limited edition. This set is from the "Chocomania" collection. The name speaks for its self! It smells like pure chocolate and almond. I definitely recommend it.

Products of the month:
For products of the month of Febuary and March I chose the Victoria Secret perfume "Angel" and the "Chocomania" body wash set. They fit the feel of the month perfectly and are amazing products to have!

I will include the products of the month on a separate post with more descriptions!


I hope you guys find this haul useful! I will post more stuff later on.

I will talk to you soon,

MissChiquita xx

Almost a year!????

Hello everyone! as you can see I am back! I am so excited right now, it's not even funny! haha..
well, I have not been on blog spot in the longest time ever. A series of things happened which did not allow me to do so. Firstly, as I mentioned before in many posts, I did not have access to the internet which made it hard for me. Secondly,My computer broke down. Technology seemed to be hating me at that time. Finally, I got a new computer, and I was able to get internet access... but I did not remember the email address nor password that I used for this blog!! It was crazy! I tried soooo many different options, and never got it right! Today I decided to keep trying..and as a result i'm here! yay!!
So now that I am back,I will blog regularly!
I hope all of you have been great!

I shall talk to all of you later!
