On my recent trip to Los Angeles, I was able to work with the Bluestem Hotel. We had an amazing stay at the hotel! The brand new interiors were trendy and chic, the staff was friendly, and the breakfast in the mornings was on point!

My Experience with Preventative Botox and Lip Fillers
By Esperanza on April 26, 2019
I’ve always had a very expressive forehead and thin lips and in recent years, it’s really started to bother me a lot more. Especially now, with my career as a content creator! I am constantly posting photos and videos of myself, so it’s really east to criticize little things about my appearance. I don’t think that anyone should feel like they have to change their physical appearance, but I also think that you should do whatever makes you feel happy and confident. So I finally decided to get botox and lip fillers! I wanted to share my experience with you guys in this blog post.

The Best Instagram Spots in Disneyland and California Adventures
By Esperanza on April 20, 2019
My sister and I killed it with the Disneyland content (if I do say so myself!) so I decided to make a guide for the best Instagram spots in Disneyland and California Adventures! We only had one day in Disneyland but we managed to hit all of our favorite rides, stop for Disney themed snacks, and shoot our content like the lady bosses we are. Of course there are a ton of cool photo spots all over the park, but these are the best in my opinion ;)!

The Best Instagram Spots in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood
By Esperanza on April 19, 2019
I am a huge Harry Potter fan (go go Gryffindor!) so it was a dream come true when I got the chance to visit The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood! Rocio and I got dressed up in Hogwarts inspired outfits and had so much fun running around the park pretending we were actually at Hogwarts. It was such a cool experience!

Los Angeles Travel Guide: Where to Eat, Stay, & Play
By Esperanza on
I recently took a girls trip to Los Angeles with my sister and my best friend Elle! I’ve been to Anaheim twice to visit Disneyland, but I’ve never actually gotten to explore Los Angeles before. My sister wants to move there in the next couple years so I thought it would be the perfect city for us to visit next! During our week in LA we did a ton of touristy things, visited lots of great restaurants, and stayed at some really cute hotels so I wanted to share all of this with you guys in an LA Travel Guide.

Getting Lash Extensions at the Lash Lounge
By Esperanza on April 11, 2019
Over the past couple of years, I have been debating whether or not I should get lash extensions. I’ve always loved the look of them but I was afraid to make the commitment! When Lash Lounge reached out to me to try lash extensions, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to finally make the leap and now I absolutely love them!
It’s the little things that make life beautiful like a strong cup of coffee or your favorite wine! After a long week, I decided to take it easy this weekend and treat myself to a few of my favorite things! I stopped by my local grocer to grab a french baguette, a beautiful bouquet, and my favorite AVA Grace Vineyards wines. All the makings for the perfect weekend dinner!

My New Bedding & Night Time Routine with Tuft & Needle
By Esperanza on March 15, 2019
I recently partnered with Tuft & Needle to take the #8hoursleepchallenge! I was given a linen duvet, linen sham sets, a new comforter, new pillows, and a new mattress all from Tuft & Needle, so that I could start the challenge in style. I don’t know about you guys, but when I love the way my bedroom looks, I am able to sleep so much better! What can I say, I’m a person that loves to be visually pleased (lol). A stylish and well organized room makes me happy!
I have been loving trouser pants lately, especially plaid ones! I love that you can dress them up for a put together look or down for more of a rocker vibe. There is something about plaid that instantly makes me think of like Europe or the East Coast which is totally a good thing. They just make a cool statement! I felt like an edgy Jess from New Girl in this outfit (it’s the glasses ;D)!
I have been in need of a new hair look for a while now! I was playing with the idea of getting bangs again and I finally decided to do it. I actually had bangs for three years but the past three years I haven’t had them. To be honest, one of the main reasons I wanted to get bangs again was to hide my expressive forehead and the wrinkles caused by it! In the future I would love to get preventive botox but until then, the bangs will do the trick 😉
