LMFAO

This is probably the fifth time I come back to this blog and announce that I will be committing to it. Like many times before, I come here to vent about changes in my life and promise to take pictures of my future outfits blah blah. Well, a lot has changed since 2013. I am about to 24 and it will be 2017 in about two months. Donald Trump was just elected the new President of the United States. I have gained about 50 pounds and I am back to being a size 16. I have broken up and gotten with another man, yet again. But I am no longer depressed. In this time, I have gotten my finances in order and no longer feel depressed. I have created and stuck to a capsule wardrobe that I love. I have a giant dog and a cool boyfriend that takes care of me. I feel closer to my family than ever. I plan on starting a YouTube channel, having a real website created for a blog, and regularly updating it. I am happy with my progress and I hope everyone is happy as well. A few pics will be coming up of just life. Nothing pro nor curated but just a small update in the meantime.

The Amuse Bouche Lip Collection by Bite Beauty

Ok, so I just recieved the best VoxBox by Influenster ever! I guess my reach has gotten high enough that they are beginning to send me really nice things for review. I received three lipsticks in the colors Beetroot, Pepper, & Gazparcho. They are so creamy and pigmented. I was so surprised. When I did a little research I realized that the company is actually a very conscious company making wonderful and rich products with integrity. In total LOVE! <3

Life is getting sweet!

Hello lovely people of this planet Earth! I am back from my deep clinical depression! And I'm only half-joking about that. A lot of things have changed since my last post on this blog.

First off, and the thing I'm most proud of; I've lost over 40 pounds! I went from being plus size to wearing regular sizes. I went from a 12-16 to a 6-10 in sizes. The second thing I'm most proud of; I've been a vegetarian for a year now and it feels amazing! I'm not going to go into my reasons, but i will leave at, "I love animals. Always have and always will, and it really wasn't that hard for me once I stuck to it for longer than a month. I noticed I never ate that much meat to begin with." As for going vegan, I love cheese way too much.

And a small recap of other recent events: I broke up with my fiance, went into a deep depression, started partying too hard, got a new pseudonym (Lolo Rivers), met a man, went through hell and back with this guy, fell in love, and I got an awesome new job at an office.
Pretty sweet.

And now I'm back, and ready to focus on my style and being happy as possible. I feel much more confident the way I am now (as confident as I was in a size 16, it feels different) because I feel healthy, period. Being plus size is great as long as you feel healthy. I did not. I'm still curvy at my new size, and I don't believe I'll ever be model size or even close, but clothes feels better now because I feel better. It truly is amazing. So look out, Lolo is back in town.

NEW YEAR NEW BLOG

Miami Movie Set

Right at this moment, there is some kind of film set being set up next to my school campus with antique cars and tons of extras and I'm really considering asking for a job... I'll work for free.

Fashions Night Out and a weeks worth of outfit posts coming soon

Again, I'm sorry for the lack of posts. First week of school was cray cray cause my classes kept getting deleted and dropped and cancelled and what not and my fiance bought a new apartment closer to Downtown, so there was that. But I have been taking pictures on my crappy little camera and stuff so hopefully tonight, I can start updating y'all.

And in other news, tonight is Fashions Night Out and luckily for me, Miami is one of those lucky cities that participate. This is a great way of kicking off Fashion Week. Although I will not be personally attending NYFW, I will be following the shows relentlessly thanks to sites like Glamour and Lucky.Thank god for magazine websites! LOL!

Tonight though, I will be attending FNO in Aventura Mall and the Miami Design District, so any Miami Fashion Bloggers, HMU!

Hurricane Isaac and my extremely disappointed face

Hurricane Isaac passed by Miami yesterday, but we're still seeing and feeling the storms. My house in Miami Lakes is currently out of electricity, so yeah....everything basically sucks. School was cancelled today, so my dreams of beginning school again and quenching my thirst for knowledge were crushed, BIG TIME! I'm very excited to resume my outfit posts once more.

Recently, I've been doing nothing but working, and I recently got a second job at one of my favorite (and affordable) stores, Marshall's. I can't wait to keep y'all updated on the trends that Marshall's receives on a daily basis; its CRAZY! Hopefully, by tomorrow, I shall resume my outfit posts. By September, I plan on having my new camera and really pleasing the eye.

I'm also planning on arranging a small, Miami Fashion Bloggers party, but I have to get in touch with many of the Miami Fashion Bloggers I haven't met yet.

Wish me luck, guys! And don't be afraid to press that follow button!
