Hello Lovelies,

Don’t know if you’ve noticed but you can find cute camouflage pieces for outfit inspiration everywhere. There is so much to love about this trend. A camo piece adds a tough-girl touch to a flirty look. Absolutely any feminine style looks cooler when it’s given a camo print.

My girlie grunge military inspired look definitely has a certain bada$$ coolness to it. To build my look I paired a printed t-shirt with baggy camouflage jeans. I made my grungy camo outfit even edgier with a dose of heeled timberland styled boots. Timberlands have made a huge comeback this fall and winter mainly because they are trendy and easy to match with most outfits. If you love budget friendly bargains like me you can get a pair of stylish tims look a likes at Charlotte Russe.

I’m obsessed with this urban New Yorker look which totally gives off a “don’t mess with me” vibe.

If you haven’t noticed yet I recently underwent an ombre hairstyle change thanks to JC Salon. I love this new hairstyle which will look perfect with all of my fall-winter outfits. If you want a hair change you can also contact any experts from https://salonlofts.com/salons/alpharetta .

Be Lovely,

Charlene Gonzalez

Bedtime Facial Skin Care Routine

August 25, 2015April 16, 2022

No matter how extremely exhausted and tired I may be I never ever go to sleep with makeup. Sleeping with makeup on does major damage to your skin. During some recent Hollywood buzz Kim Kardashian posted an Instagram picture with the following quote, “Ugh I hate falling sleep with all of my makeup on!” during an interview she confessed “I just love to take care of my skin. I’m always researching different products and I always try so many different things. I don’t just stick to one face wash or moisturizer. I always need a makeup wipe. I find that I can’t really take my makeup off without it. I use the Neutrogena Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelettes. They take off everything but really gently—even mascara! I used to just go on a flight, fall asleep in my makeup, and not care. Now I really wash it off—first with a wipe.”

Sleeping with makeup rapidly ages your skin, clogs your pores and can cause major breakouts. When I arrive home from any event or activity the first thing I do is remove my makeup. I have a pretty basic skincare routine that actually includes Kim Kardashian’s favorite wipes and also the natural skincare products from ManukaRx that are becoming quite famous in the market today.

The first step in my facial skin care is removing my makeup with Neutrogena’s Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes. These clothes are so gentle and they remove even waterproof mascara. My next step is cleansing my skin with Neutrogena’s Fresh Foaming Cleanser. Now this baby is two in one; a makeup remover and a cleanser. This cleanser deep cleans your skin unclogging all your pores leaving your face feeling absolutely fresh. Now onto my skins hydration with Neutrogena’s Hydro Boost Water Gel. Drinking lots of water is very important for the skins hydration but sometimes we are so irresponsible that we omit this important step in our daily routines but Neutrogena has created this amazing product that offers the same benefits that water offers to your skin. This amazing water gel renews and hydrates your skin. My favorite part about this product is that it absorbs quickly into your skin not leaving any sticky residue.My last bedtime skin care step is pampering and hydrating the skin around my eyes with the Hydro Boost gel-cream.Taking care of your skin is very important especially when you don’t want to age before time. Neutrogena has the best variety of skin care products and is the #1 Dermatologist recommended brand helping us fight against acne and aging. I’m very excited to announce that Neutrogena will be a sponsoring brand of Lovely Chicas at Vlog In Fest this Saturday September 26th. Neutrogena has been in my life since my young teenage years as I faced acne problems and I’m very proud they will be a part of Lovely Chicas at this major event.

Sporty Spice

August 22, 2015September 3, 2015

Sporty Spice

I’m typically a skinny jeans type of girl but since the jogger pants trend is back in style I needed to tag along with this comfy trend. So I decided to channel my inner Sporty Spice with these acid wash jogger/track pants which happen to be very cool and comfy. The key to pulling this style off without looking frumpy is to wear cute heels and a delicate top. And of course, I made a huge statement by accessorizing with a gold chain necklace. This outfit is perfect for work, shopping, running errands, a girl’s day or even a date.

Yay! Vlog In Fest is just a week away. I’m so excited; I’ve been working very hard to bring you the best. I’ve partnered with Gatsby and we have a few surprises for you on September 26^th so I hope to see you all there! Buy your tickets at www.PRticket.com

Be Lovely,

Life, Vlog In Fest, Moto Jackets & Ruling the World

August 18, 2015September 3, 2015

Hey my lovelies! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I’ve been incredibly busy with blog work, events, getting ready to move and other personal issues. At times everything tends to happen all at once and I’m trying very hard to keep my sanity. I know all of you understand how hectic life can get.

But continuing on to the fun stuff, as many of you already know through my social media accounts I’ll be forming part of the first ever blogger/vlogger event in Puerto Rico “Vlog In Fest” and in preparations for this event a press conference was recently held. Vlog In Fest will be celebrated on the 26^th of September in the Puerto Rico Convention Center. The best of the best will be present including Lejuan James, Natalia Lugo, Buoy, La Shoppinista and many more.

One of my sponsors for the event “Gatsby” provided my attire for this press conference.

Have you ever worn an outfit where you feel you can rule the world? Well this is one of those attires. I love a classy, chic and professional look but being petite makes it a bit difficult to pull outfits like this off. When I first tried this look on I was ready to face disappointment but when everything fit perfectly hugging the right dimensions of my body I squealed with joy. Let’s take a moment to talk about the white leather jacket. When my eyes made contact with this piece of beauty I instantly fell in love. I love leather jackets but the hot scorching sun that impacts this tropical island makes it almost impossible to pull this trend off. Thankfully this specific jacket has a cut-out pattern allowing the air to flow through making it possible to be worn in the summer or fall. To enhance the girl power sensations of this look I chose to wear a fabulous pair of snake print sandals and a gorgeous statement necklace.

I hope to see you all at the event where Gatsby and I have a few surprises. You can buy your tickets to the event here at PRticket.com

Be Lovely,

Charlene Gonzalez

Trollbeads Puerto Rico 1st Anniversary

August 15, 2015August 19, 2015

For those of you who couldn’t make it to Trollbeads Puerto Rico 1^st Anniversary event at the Outlet Mall in Canovanas don’t worry because I have every special moment captured in pictures. It was such a fun event where I was deeply immersed into the world of Trollbeads. Since 1976, Trollbeads is the original bead-on-bracelet jewelry line. All of their exclusive pieces are delicately hand-made by glass and silver artisans making each bead unique. At the event Trollbeads artisan Scott Bouwens was present and gave demonstrations of how he creates his glass bead designs.

Trollbeads offers so many unique designs you’ll forever fall in love. Not only is Trollbeads loved by women but by men as well. Trollbeads offers a very wide selection for men. My boyfriend has begun his collection with the black & grey leather bracelet, Lapis Lazuli Bead, Trollbead coin and water lock. I also acquired a few new pieces to my collection; a delicate white pearl ring, beige & brown leather bracelet styled with the universal white diamond bead and a pearl tassel. For another new acquisition, I now also own a silver bangle with a white triple pearl bead gifted to me by Sandy Lee director of retail at Trollbeads. I love pearls and Trollbeads offers a great variety of pearl designs. Pearls symbolize wisdom, integrity, generosity, beauty, purity and loyalty; all of which are qualities I believe to possess, relatively explaining my pearl obsession.

Trollbeads makes such a variety of jewelry, there’s something for everyone. If any of you lovelies plan to visit the store I’m pretty sure you will find many special items for yourself or a special someone. I now leave you with the event pictures, enjoy!

Be Lovely,

Charlene Gonzalez

Trusting

August 14, 2015August 17, 2015

When I first opened this blog one of my main goals was to spread love, happiness, motivation & confidence. I’m very upset with myself because I haven’t written an inspirational post in a very long time. My life isn’t just centered on fashion and beauty there is so much more to me than that. Those who know me well can agree that being vain is far from who I am. So, I promise that from now on I will share more about myself and write more motivational post.

Onto that topic, lately I’ve been so extremely stressed and a few situations have had me a bit upset; one being that I tend to be such a trusting and honest person and at times those qualities turn against me. Have you ever trusted in someone and believed you’ve made an honest friend until you actually see that persons true colors and realize that you were just being used? As that person does most hypocritical things. Well yes that recently happened to me but you know what every struggle brings great blessings and through that hurtful situation I have been receiving many amazing blessings.

Why am I sharing this you may ask? Life is a mysterious journey and at times you think “Why is this happening to me if I’m a good person”. Everything happens for a reason. In life each of us has to respond to the challenges and tensions of daily living. God allows certain struggles to come to our lives to make us better and stronger people. Every situation good or bad helps us grow. We have to make an effort to cope with everything that comes our way because each day is a gift and a challenge. When you are truly an honest person and someone betrays you or tries to hurt you eventually everything turns against that person.

If you are struggling through any situation I hope these words comfort you and you soon find peace. Remember you are not alone there are many just like you struggling around the world. Hold onto your faith because your great blessing is on the way.

Be Lovely,

Charlene Gonzalez
