Pink and White.

The pictures really do not show the real color of my pants, the real color is hot pink .
They look like red in this picture though, I guess because of the light, it was after sunset that I took these pics.
I made myself take them (because I have been lacking on my blog a bit)  after I came back from the 8th grade honors night.
I love the bow on the top so feminine.

My Busy Life in Instagram.

It has been a struggle keeping up with blogging these past week, I feel so overwhelmed with all the schools things going on so it leaves no time for me to take pictures for the blog. I get dressed every day trust me but when I have time to take pictures it's already getting dark outside. 
But I do take pictures with my phone and post them on my instagram here are some that I took these past week.


Time for a picture after the Thespian Induction Ceremony

With every season I change my mantle, It seems I am ready for Summer.
I like displaying pictures from our recent trips, Hawaii and Bonaire.

Molenwiek Dinner (Dutch school in Atlanta)


My brother is the one who draws and paints, I decided to just use some water colors to make this beautiful abstract painting.

I grew up eating these at parties, really easy to make.
"Kos di lechi" a mix of powder milk, vanilla extract, powdered sugar and condensed milk with some food color.

Me and my husband are in a dinner club with  3 other Dutch Couple, this time the theme was Orange because of our New King and Queen.

This is what I wore to dinner.

I had to make orange deviled eggs, no they do not  have oranges in the recipe.
I had to make an orange pesto with peppadew peppers and roasted dried tomatoes.
I used the leftover orange pesto on toasted bread.

My daughter's Bollywood dance.

before I got my hair blow dried, it has curls allover.

After  I got it blow dried.

Inspired by Chan Luu.


These leather bracelet wear inspired by the beautiful Chan Luu bracelets which are also very pricey.  I fell in love with one while in Hawaii but the price tag was $240 I wasn't going to buy it if I can make my own. they are really fun to make.

You can find DIY's on Pinterest, Craftgawker or Youtube.

Travel to Bonaire, the Diver's Paradise.

Last month, me and my family went back to Bonaire, the island where I was born and grew up the kids got  padi certified, all I can say I am very proud.
Here are some of the pictures I took during our vacation.




























Animal Print.

Today feels like fall, cold and rainy I thought it was Spring it sure does not feel like it though. 
I did get to run some errands in the rain, the highlight was a stop at Costco , I love trying out new food today 's theme Cinco de Mayo and when I am hungry everything taste better and I want to buy them too, thank God for the hubby who will tell me no we don't need that.
I am planning to try a new statement necklace I saw on Craftgawker, another site I am addicted too.
I hope you have a wonderful rest of the day.

Friday"s White Tee.

I decided to be part of Style me Friday since this time it was something I already had and I had time to take pictures. This week was an easy one,  style a white tee. I decided to combine my tee with a bright red skirt and some cold bracelet and to dress it up  a bit I went with a turquoise statement necklace.
I found my inspiration on Pinterest. I wish you guys a great weekend.
