By: Gabriela Yareliz The perfect message for a tough week that has no end in sight. “I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element.

Monsieur mardi: Zizou
He is gorgeous; even on the weird Four Four Two cover, where he is all beat up. Zidane. #always #ManCrushEveryday
Monday Inspiration: October 5, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello, my people! On Friday, I spent a good amount of time fighting with my umbrella in torrential rains.

#TeamRafael
By: Gabriela Yareliz Note: This is in no way a deep or serious discussion; it’s just a braindump. Is anyone else excited to see who Jane will be marrying in season 2 of ‘Jane the Virgin’? October, come quickly. Reveal to us your mysteries. While Michael is sweet and close to perfection, everyone saw himContinue reading “#TeamRafael”
Sunday Girl: September 13, 2015
Compiled by: Gabriela Yareliz “We all need a great reminder not to forget our worth. The only person that deserves a special place in your life is someone that never made you feel like you were an option in theirs.
