Netflix & Chill Routine

Let me just clear the air right now, just in case you were thinking about the meaning society has currently given “Netflix & Chill”. Not everything has to be about sex! I remember a time when Netflix & Chill literally meant “ Do you want to come over and watch a movie?” And to me that’s what it still means. Whether it’s alone or accompanied Netflix makes for an amazing relaxed evening for homebodies like me.

Do you want to know how I Netflix & Chill? Well, I’m going to share my not-so sexy and simple Netflix binge watching routine.

To begin I have a confession to make: My name is Charlene Gonzalez and I’m obsessively addicted to Netflix. It’s safe to say I am way past my partying days and to be honest I was never much of a party girl anyway. There’s nothing I’d rather do on a Friday night or the entire weekend than to relax in my pajamas while I munch on some goodies and watch my favorite shows or movies. Watching Netflix is by far my favorite thing to do to relax after a long day. The great thing is that I know I’m not alone. A lot of you are just like me! We all just have to accept our weakness and focus on creating the best binge-watching atmosphere ever.

First things first, munchies are a must! So, set the popcorn to popping and prepare a few of your favorite munchies. My favs are; extra buttery popcorn, Swedish fish candy, mixed nuts and cold Lipton Raspberry ice tea to drink.

Netflix and Chill

Next, grab your laptop and get comfy. For my Netflixing attire I prefer to wear a t-shirt, shorts and knee-high socks. Then I surround myself with throw pillows and snuggle up with a blanket.

Netflix and Chill

Now that you’ve set the mood you’re left with the most important part of all, what to watch on Netflix! Can’t decide what to watch? The huge selection available with just a few clicks can be overwhelming. My favorite genre picks are comedies, dramas and romance. Horror movies are a “No Way!” for me. Netlfix offers so many options of series, TV shows and movies to watch. I’m currently watching Arrow, Flash, New Girl, Jane The Virgin, Baby Daddy, Young & Hungry & Pretty Little Liars. For movies one of my favorites Atonement just premiered and it’s a must watch. In addition something monumental has occurred. I’m referring to the official arrival of Netflix’s Fuller House which has begun streaming. This show is a continuation of my favorite classic Full House.

So after this routine rundown all that’s left to do is have fun Netflixing.

Do you have any good recommendations of what to watch?

A Colorful Way To Distress

For a while I’ve felt as if I’ve been on a non-stop roller coaster ride. Tons of work, activities, meetings and not to mention personal circumstances have filled my schedule completely overwhelming me with stress and anxiety. Once in a while, it’s very important to take a break. So, I’ve been learning to relax and slow down. To accomplish this I have been becoming very friendly with coloring. To me coloring has always been relaxing. Funny fact, whenever my friend’s children were ever coloring or drawing I would join them to “pretend” I was helping when I was really trying to find piece of mind.

I’m very happy that now adult coloring books are being created proving a fact I already new, that coloring unwinds you from the stresses of everyday life. It’s so peaceful to step away from the computer or cell phone and focus on coloring inside the lines, which is a very relaxing experience. So, if you want to maintain mental sanity and reduce stress I highly recommend an adult coloring book for therapeutic relaxation.

What do you do to distress?

Fashion Meets Music: What To Wear To a Music Festival

Much like fashion week music festivals have become a focal point for style and trends. This weekend on the 13th & 14th of February “We The Future” Festival lands in Puerto Rico. This music event is a new phenomenon of technology, music and lifestyle. You can check this site musemantra.com/courses-voice-lessons if you are inspired by music and want to learn. I’ll be attending the event and If you are as well I wanted to spare you the trouble of battling on what to wear by sharing a simple but chic festival outfit.

This look basically consists of a button up denim skirt. You can never go wrong with denim for festival wear. Denim skirts are very versatile. I preferred to pair it with a white tank top so that my gold accessories can be the center of attention. Opting for comfortable footwear flats are a great choice. I highly recommend you carry minimal baggage, therefore my option is to wear a small crossbody bag. The idea is to have fun and dance so feeling comfortable is very important.

Don’t miss the chance of being the protagonist of this event, which will be celebrated at parque Luis Muñoz Marín & Anfiteatro Tito Puente with musical presentations by Jack Ü (Diplo + Skrillex), Alesso, Robi Draco Rosa, Claptone, Jean Tonique, Martin Solveig, Modestep Live {{UK}}, Anna Lunoe, Calyx & Teebe, Danny Daze, Fury & many more.

If you still haven’t purchased your tickets hurry before they disappear. You can buy your tickets at Valija, The Room,  Bora Bora, Thunder Ball, Kaliche Surf, Opium, Blue Surf & Ticketpop. I’m very excited for the festival. I’ll be attending the event on Sunday the 14th.  We The Future will be an epic event.

Be You , Be Lovely

Casual Valentines Outfit & GIVEAWAY

If you’re opting for a daytime date to celebrate Valentine’s Day or if you’re just going on a brunch date with your single gal pal’s this chic casual look is the perfect outfit for you. A pair of white jeans and a chambray shirt is a great way to wear denim head–to-toe without feeling completely overwhelmed. To finish the look I opted for statement floral printed pumps. This romantic and cute attire is the perfect option for a casual Valentines look.

As I did last year, I wanted to present a special Valentines giveaway. V-day isn’t only for romance. It’s also the perfect occasion to celebrate friendship. I love giving gifts and I wanted to celebrate V-day with my amazing followers who have also become my friends. It’s very easy to participate in the Valentines giveaway.
