Jazmín Chebar 17:52

Jazmín Chebar is an Argentine brand that has quickly become one of my favorites ever since I was given a light blue linen suit as a gift.  The detail and quality of this brand is amazing and their new Autumn Winter collection does not dissapoint.  Going on 25 this year makes me think of maybe adding a bit more sophistication to my wardrobe without looking 50 and this brand makes it easy to do so.   

Tell me what ya think, enjoy!

the skinny 22:32

In high school (about 5-6 yrs ago for me) I wanted to be thin so bad.  I lived dieting and then would binge.  I practically lived in a gym for more than a year, tryed the Atkins, the Cabbage Soup diet, all of those diets.  I would see the celebs and admire their bodies.  I thought that if I only had that body, my life would be SO different.  So many things would change.  I compared my size 6 jeans to size 2 models.

I now lost weight, I'm down to a size 4 but a good size 4, I can honestly say that I have no problem whatsover, no complaints.  I've moved to Argentina and in these last 4 years, I walk a lot, I eat REAL food (no perservatives), more water and tea and I snack less.  Basically my lifestyle is way different and I eat just as much as before but in a different way and doing different things.

The point is that, weight really doesn't change your life a whole lot.  1 or 2 sizes (as long as you're healthy) really isn't as dramatic as it seems.  It's not going to change your love life, it's not going to make you more successful at work, it's not going to help you gain friends nor will it bring you and your family closer together.  It's really not going to change a whole lot besides needing new clothes and maybe gaining a litte confidence.  And I say maybe because you may even discover that your weight doesn't even modify your confidence.  It doesn't even make you feel prettier or funnier or sexier sometimes.

I don't know, it just doesn't change a whole lot when your already at a healthy weight. 

Point is, if you are thinking that losing 1 or 2 sizes when you are already healthy is going to change your life, you may discover that it's really not, you're just gonna need some new jeans.

To Santa: 16:45

My X-mas list.  Granted I don't expect a whole lot...but I always enjoy thinking about what I need want most.

1. Skullcandy headphones.  I'm obsessed and though it'd probably mess up my hair, they look so freakin adorable with a cute bun while riding the subway!

2. Jeans.  Dark ones with a straight leg.  This might be a lot more complicated for "Santa" to give me because jeans are soo personal...I'm so picky with the fit! (Pictured below are some curvy id Levis)

3. Perfume.  Anyone who really knows me knows that I have specific scents and I don't really like to get out of my perfume comfort zone.  I'm almost done with my Paco Rabanne Lady Millon and am in need of one of the following fragrances:

 4. Arm Candy.  Love the look, don't have enough to pull it off.

5. Clothing.  I can never have enough.  Note: I love everything in the nude range of colors.
