I love this outfit that I wore in Miami a couple of weeks ago. Miami is so hot and humid that these two-piece set was perfect. I paired it with some wedges, because I wanted to be comfy, and my favorite bag. I rarely wear wedges but these ones go with everything and are super cute.

Amo este outfit que use en Miami hace un par de semanas. Si han estado en Miami saben que hace un calor bárbaro y ademas es super húmedo. Por eso este outfit se me hizo ideal para un domingo. Aunque yo no uso wedges/cuñas están de acá me encantaron por el color y ademas por que son super cómodas.

Hi Queens!!! As many of you know from Instagram, I had been feeling sick for the past week and a half. On Monday I woke up with the worse headache ever, I felt as if my head was going to explore so I went to ER. They found out I have a cervical sprain and torn some ligaments on my neck, that's what was causing my migraines and pain on my neck. I'm still in pain but I'm glad it wasn't anything worse. The doctors have managed my pain and I just need to rest now. Thank you to the amazing stuff at Standford Hospital for taking such good care of me and even following up with me today. Thank you God for never leaving my side. And of course, thank you for all your prayers and positive energy.

On a happier note, I wore this black romper to Mara Hoffman presentation for Miami Swim Weeek and I felt too sexy ha, ha, ha. I don't think I usually wear this kind of rompers but hey, Miami was super hot and I was melting. I completed the look with some Gucci sandals and this beautiful necklace from Tati Rocks on Esty. I hope you like the outfit!

PS: I know you can't leave a comment on my blog right now ... I screwed it up. But the great news is that I'm working on a new blog and it should be ready soon!

Hola mis Queens! Como saben en Instagram les conte que hace 10 días me venia sintiendo super mal. El lunes me sentía horrible así que fui a emergencia y los doctores encontraron que tengo un enguince cervical y me he desgarrado unos ligamentos en el cuello, es lo que ha causado mis migrañas. Gracias a Diosito no fue peor y ahora empieza la recuperacion. Gracias por sus rezos y tanto cariño. Las adoro.

Hablando ahora de cosas gratas, les cuento que use este outfit para ir a la presentación de Mara Hoffman de Miami Swim Week. La verdad es que este vestido es bastante sexy pero es que en Miami hacia un calor, que no tienen ni idea. Le agrege unas sandalias negras y este collar, que me encanta de Tati Rocks, para completar el look.

PD: Tengo entendido que ahorita no pueden dejar sus comentarios aquí, no se que paso. Pero les cuento que estoy trabajando en un blog nuevo y pronto ya podrán dejar sus comentarios. Besitos

My experience at the Clinique Counter

Hi Queens,

I hope you are having a fabulous weekend! It's no secret that I love getting dolled up either for TV or just for fun! So I was very excited when Clinique invited me to get pampered at one of their beauty counters, especially because it's been a while since I had a consultation.

As soon as I got there I felt right at home, the girl doing my makeup and everybody at the counter was so sweet and nice. The first thing she asked me was what my concerns were. I immediately told her I had just turned 40 and I was afraid I was going to start getting lines on my forehead and lips. Yes, she was a little surprised I was 40 ...ha,ha,ha, you know I felt good and happy! And then the consultation started.

She started off by cleaning my face with the Clinique Sonic Cleansing Brush, even though I've used cleansing brushes before this one felt soft and  I loved how light it was. She explained to me that no matter what I do it is really important to make sure I clean my face thoroughly in the morning and at night. Then she got my skin ready with their 3-Step Skin Care System. I remember using the 3-Step Skin System when I was in Hight School and in college. Their yellow moisturizer, I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with, felt like a long lost friend that I had just reunited with! My skin seemed to loved it, because I was glowing!!!

Then the fun part started and we moved on to makeup! I told her since I wear a lot of makeup on TV I like doing a natural softer look for regular days.  She did just that using a peach, gold and bronze palette.  If you've been following my blog for a while, you know that I LOVE a nude lip and I'm always looking for the perfect one. My dream came true when she showed me this gorgeous Clinique Pop Lip Colour + Primer in Beige Pop, it is perfection and it has become my new favorite lipstick especially because their smoothing primer makes it last for eight hours.

I can't wait to share more of my experience with Clinique. Until then, check out their Pop Lip Colours + Primer here. They come in 16 shades and they are all just as beautiful.

Romper for Miami Swim Week

If you follow me on Instagram you know that I was in Miami for Swim Week! I just got back on Tuesday and I'm already missing it. Well, not the weather because it's soooo humid in South Florida. And even tough I've covered New York Fashion Week before, this was my first time at Miami Swim Week. I had the best time attending shows, events, doing TV and mainly hanging out with my blogger bestie Dany from Nany's Klozet and Kelly Saks. There's something about Miami that makes you feel happy and relax. I can't wait to go back.

Si me sigues en Instagram sabes que estuve en Miami para Swim Week, Swim Week es donde diseñadores presentan su colección de ropa de baños. Y aunque he cubrido New York Fashion Week en ocasiones pasadas esta fue mi primera vez en Miami Swim Week. La verdad es que entre eventos, desfiles, presentaciones la pase divino. Ademas tuve la oportunidad de juntarme con mi adorada Dany de Nany's Klozet y Kelly Saks. Ah y por supuesto que aproveche mi estadía en Miami para hacer segmentos de moda con Un Nuevo Dia en Telemundo. En verdad fue un viaje matador, pero lleno de lindos recuerdos. Ahora solo espero regresar a Miami muy pronto :-)

Happy Five Year Anniversary to my BLOG!!!

Queens, I'm so happy!!! My baby, my blog turned five on Sunday, July 19th and I could not help but smile!! I have so many emotions as I write this ... I remember clearly when I decided to start a blog and I had NO idea what I was doing, it was a hobby afterall. I had a 11year career in sports before I started Flor de Maria Fashion and I had no clue were it was going to take me BUT now that I look back I would not changed this ride for anything!!! In these five years I have made life changing decisions because of my blog, one of the most important ones, to move to NYC. I say there was Flor before New York and Flor after New York. In these five years I have grown so much as a person and many of you have been able to see that. I have evolve and my style has changed as well. But most important I have met the most incredible people, people that inspire me, teach me things and love me for who I am. All I can say is thank you for being in this journey with me and supporting me in one way or the other, means the world to me. Let me tell you something, always believe in your dreams and never never give up!!! Don't take NO for an answer and surround yourself with good people that want to see you succeed. Cut off any negative people and just be thankful. If I can do it anybody can!!! Thank you Lord for blessing me with so many opportunities, You know I do everything with love and from my heart. Thank you mom for always being there, supporting me, listening to my crazy ideas and taking my pics. I love you ma!!!! Now cheers to another 60 years coz you know I'll be wearing #prostishoes till I'm 100!!!

Mis Queens, el domingo, 19 de julio fue un dia sumamente importante para mi. Estoy feliz por que mi blog cumplió cinco años y mi corazon esta lleno de satisfaccion, dicha, amor, paz y felicidad. No puedo creer que lo que empezo como un hobby, hoy en dia se ha convertido en gran parte de mi. Y aunque no soy solo mi blog, es la razon por la que todo lo que han visto, ha pasado. Yo tenia una carrera de 11 años en el mundo de los deportes cuando empece el blog. Empece de cero, en un mundo que muchos lo califican de frivolo, pero que a mi, me ha dejado las experiencias mas lindas de mi vida y me ha dado mil oportunidades. En estos cinco años he crecido inmensamente, he reido como loca y tambien he derramado lagrimas, he aprendido mucho y he tomado decisiones muy importantes que me han marcado por siempre. Yo digo que mudarme a Nueva York ha sido una de las mejores experiencias en mi vida y existe Flor antes y Flor despues de Nueva York. Solo me toca agradecerles por tanto amor y por el apoyo en estos cinco años! Gracias de corazon sin uds. nada seria posible. Y si uds tienen sueños como el que yo tuve en el 2010, no se den por vencidas y sigan adelante. Rodeense de gente buena y que quieran lo mejor para uds, eliminen a la gente "toxica" y sean felices. Gracias Diosito por tantas bendiciones y enseñarme el camino. Gracias mamá por apoyarme desde el principio, tomarme fotitos y escuchar mis locuras. Eres mi razon de ser, te adoro ma!!! Y ahora a celebrar, que hay #prostishoes para rato!!!! Las adoro mis Queens

Hi Queens,

I hope you are doing great! Today was a long day for me I had to be up very early to style a client and probably slept four hours. Then, I had to get things ready for Miami since I'm headed there tomorrow for Miami Swim Week, to do some styling and to do a few TV segments! By the way I just join Snapchat: FlorModa so follow me there to see my adventures! About the outfit, I wore this on Sunday to have lunch and run some errands. Lately I've been wearing jeans and cutoffs a lot, they are comfortable and go with pretty much everything! I hope you like the outfit :-)

... and here they are, my Sophia Webster butterfly shoes!!! How amazing are they? They made their first appearance at Santana Row last week and let me tell you, I had so many people stopped me and asked me where I got them! Since the shoes are bright and have a lot going on, I paired them with jeans and a simple white tee. Remember, if you have similar shoes, let them take do the talking and keep the rest of your outfit simple.
