Myshapemates Review

Yay for a new review post! I am always extra excited when I get to share with you some goodies which I personally use all the time and really enjoy. Such partnerships definitely give me most motivation in blogging giving me tons of self esteem. I am so excited to show you my newest closet addition: shapewear from Myshapemates (I recieved it for review but my post here is my honest opinion). I absolutely love the idea of getting help from shapewear. I have never been shy to wear for important events or during colder days as a warmth layer. Bonus usage: shapewear for restaraunt date. Eat all you like and snap photos during the whole event without worries. I didn't know of shapewear when I was on the dating scene, I bet I'd score a lot more boyfriends if I knew about it before. But with my hubby I am even happier with such a hack, trust me. After having a baby, it’s hard to accept changes in the body and it’s quality, shapewear allows a break and confidence boost which I find abs

Bobbing on boba

Take a break, drink something delicious and find a sunny stop. Don't forget to wear your sunscreen too. Do I make too many points here? Am I a little pushy with my advice? I don't know and not that I really cared either. This is my small, super casual and highly relaxed look. I strolled to my favorite boba spot in town and enjoyed myself and my little family the fullest. Our furbaby didn't join us this time (despite the cafe being super pup friendly) because he is still not allowed to walk a lot. I can't wait for him to fully recover to enjoy our long walks and pet friendly places. And so far, enjoy me, my crop top, cargo pants and boba milk tea. I was wearing: H&M top (from ages go) Fossil watch c/o Orflame dog paw necklace Cuidado con el Perro cargo pants Pirma shoes   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

A year of my life 2.0

It's been a year since I have moved to Mexico and honestly it still feels like a dream come to true to me. I am so happy and fulfilled here, it is incredible. I am half-way scared I might jinx it. I do pray I won't. I am also very happy how my adaptation went/goes here. I thought it might be useful to many people who relocate to a very different climate and also different culture (always applies) to share some of my tips. Each of them contributed to my well being here. I feel very local here. After all they joke Mexicans are born wherever they feel like. May be it was meant for me to live here that is why I adapted so well. Anyways, here is my piece of mind: 1 Have your eyes opened. Adapt to new reality. It is not your previous home with benefits, it is completely different. Don't expect it to be like your before-home but better in each and every position. 2 People at your new place and the place itself are not "them", it is called "us" now. Start with

Dia del Taco

Would you head to the city centre to stay in the queues to eat some cheap taco, listen to mariachis and watch lucha libre for your your birthday? Because that is exactly what I happily did! It was so much fun! I was very tired after but it was So worth it. I do hope to repeat it next year because March 31st is Taco day in Mexico. I do hope to enjoy it even more next time! As it was my birthday I wanted to wear something more flashy and festive. I went with sexy skirt, basic top and my most comfortable shoes. I felt edgy and beautiful. May be a little overdressed but who cares as it was my birthday! Who said 'taco'? I was wearing: H&M skirt (yes, i still kinda shocked they made such a beautiful and well made silky perfection) Doc Marten's Cuidado con el Perro top (I wear this shop a lot, but they seem to be so cute and affordable, I found a lot of joy in buying a top once in a while) Coach bag Necklace gift from my partner long before Fossil watch (last year'

Inspiring in a suit

Hello Wednesday! I didn't expect you that soon! I can't say I am too opposed seeing you coming but still. This week is flying by way too fast. Or may be it is my excitement and number of things to do talking. Chores do not pile up but show up in painfully great numbers. Right now I am taking a break of all the important things to do and am drinking my second cup of coffee (no worries, size is very moderate at best, nothing XXL, which my heart might have asked). I do enjoy some online time scrolling through the internet and social networks without an obvious aim. And now is an hour just like that. Seeing numerous fashion adds today, I thought a little on just how little men fashion is. Even if you check out boy fashion store and girl fashion store the numbers do not add up at all. While I do prefer little gentlemen oriented styles, things tend to change as the target grows old. Somehow men are denied fashion. Surely a lot of men fight to be able to wear skirts and dresses but w

Faro

There is something special about lazy days when you get to the beach to do nothing and simply enjoy simple slow life, some coffee and sun. This was a weekend like that. A slow moment of sea, sun and sand by the lighthouse. Days like that are what you typically imagine living next to the sea in a major touristic destination, a city you simply call home and feel like that. My outfit matches the vibe: flowy, touristy and light. I might look like a tourist but how cares when you are enjoying yourself I was wearing: Marc jacobs shirt Cuidado con el Perro top Walmart boy shorts Prima shoes Love Moschino bag Jojo earring c/o Glassesshop glasses   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

Shimmer through it

How's your weekend guys! Enjoying it so far?  Do you have holidays here or not? And if you do are in for the holiday with meaning or just enjoying some promotions and free time without caring about the cause? I have to admit that we are not celebrating, moreover being a major touristic destination I' d really wanted to venture out of town for the weekend. Or cuddle up in. I opt for the latter actually because the former requires a lot more investment and time plus even to the capital the prices went up because people hope to see Mexico city less crowded because the majority is said to prefer the sea. I don't really know there the truth lies for real and nor do I really care. I simply want to enjoy life the best I can. I'll probably wake up early and get a long walk to avoid crowds during the weekend and will binge watch and/or play games the rest of the time. However some people do get to celebrate and celebrate a lot so I will make sure to write my dear friends a lin

Celebrating Roo

While I am slowly progressing through number of content I have recently made being super active out and about I apologize of being that slow to document it. At times my content jumps in time because something might not be finished yet while something closer at date is already ready at hand. Today I want to share what I wore for a restaurant night for my partner's birthday. Originally I planned on wearing pumps and a dress, something fancy which is not frankly a part of my daily life here. I do prefer flipflops, docs and tennis shoes anyway but sometimes I am welcoming a change. But suddenly I had a change of heart. I really felt like wearing this top and pairing it with pumps made me feel too extra. I went with cargo pants and sneakers. But I felt so very cute, I loved it. It hit just the right spot of festivity in my heart. What do you think? I was wearing: Cuidado con el Perro top and pants Prima shoes Coach bag tous necklace   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

Golden photo idea

I have just celebrated my own and partner's birthday. It has been a blast even though we managed to avoid piƱatas but sang many wonderful songs. I also got to celebrate birthday of my coach which definitely was also very special to me. And while I have been taking tons of photos both with me and without me, I realized just how much I wanted it to be more organized to be even more special. While I love seeing smiles of my friends and even more of my dear beloved family I do enjoy seeing a good backdrop. In Mexico the most delicious places are often the least spectacular looking ones. The most vivid and happy moments are not staged. Sometimes I kinda wish I could stage it at least a little to treasure the moments a little more. Like instead of seeing a counter with dirty dishes seeing something more appealing. Or instead of couple of balloons and crowds on the beach seeing something cutting the perspective only to make it more... golden. I actually have been thinking of backdrops w
