Hmm…where do I start?
Celebrating 1 year.
One year ago, we were promising our vows to love and hold each other throughout sickness and health, for richer for poorer, at our church, Trinity Episcopal Cathedral.
Typography for bloggers 101
Buying a theme for your blog doesn’t mean that you have to stick to using their exact fonts and colors. Most themes allow you to customize however you please, as long as you don’t delete the little snippet that states where the theme comes from (which is usually on the footer). So you want to customize your blog and change the fonts, but don’t know where to start? How do you combine fonts in a way where your blog is readable and aesthetically pleasing?
Depuff and decrease dark circles with VII code O2M Oxygen Eye Mask
I’m always on the hunt for concealers, correctors, and eye creams to help hide (and depuff) my pesky dark circles and find lines. Lately, I’ve been slacking off on looking for eye creams, serums and treatments because I found my holy grail corrector+concealer combo and have been wearing that everyday, even if I don’t have any sort of foundation. However, it’s actually better to tackle and treat the problem instead of just hiding it (like with everything else in life).

30 Random facts about my husband and I

Yesterday may have been Valentine’s Day, but my real “love” day with Cecilio happens to be today, our 9-year anniversary of togetherness (along with our wedding day, March 18, 2017). Long story short, I was out and about on Valentine’s Day in 2009 and SO happy to be single after getting out of a bad relationship 5 months prior. Cecilio and I started developing a budding friendship. I came home past 1 a.m. with a teddy bear and Hot Cheetos on my doorstep. I called him out of suspicion, and he told me to go outside. There he was, with a guitar, playing “True Love Waits” by Radiohead. That was when we made it official. So in honor of our 9 year anniversary, get to know the man who is constantly featured in my blog(s): my best friend, my muse, my soulmate 🙂

Wedding Canvas Print ft. Photowall
Photography: Elisabeth Arin Photography
Cecilio and I talked about buying a canvas print of one of our wedding photos someday, whenever we moved to a bigger space. We could’ve had a chance to purchase one from our photographer, but we just pushed it off and the idea of hanging it up seemed daunting. Would we need to drill it? Cecilio tries to minimize drilling as much as possible in our apartment (though he did lightly drill my vanity mirror and these wall shelves I bought). We have been mostly using command strips to hang up things.
