3rd Annual Spoiled Latina Day did not disappoint!

I hosted the third annual Spoiled Latina Day on July 15th to empower and celebrate women by providing them with a space to network, grow and be spoiled. It was a day to celebrate our individual successes within our community. 

Often times you go to events and although it is marketed as a women empowerment event, the energy is off or something is missing. Not at Spoiled Latina Day. Everyone left empowered, they networked and made business connections that in turn will make their business flourish. The women came in one way and walked out a whole different person.  That is what SL Day is all about. Each Woman has their our own aspirations in life and when they come together with an open mind and heart to be inspired by other women in the room to learn they grow and build each other up and most of the times, business grows too! 

The comments about SL Day from ladies from all over Houston and those who traveled from San Antonio, Dallas and Austin were all so sweet and motivating. Thankful to all the amazing sponsors, the beautiful attendees who came dressed to kill and to my team for the hard work you put into making my day memorable. I am already planning #SLDay2019! 

To my social media family, thank you for the support. Many of you have been following me before Anthony was born, and have seen the growth. A lot of you are new followers and are finding out how awesome I am. lol kidding --- I want to thank you for the likes and the comments and interaction with each other on my pages. I love my Spoiled Latina community. Just in case you didn't know, I value your comment sand likes, that is my business. The same brands that sponsored SL Day and many other campaigns I've worked through out my 10 years of blogging notice my interaction and the engagement between my followers and I....  So every like and comment means so much! 

Did you attend Spoiled Latina Day? Tell me your thoughts and what you would tell your friends about the day and why they shouldn't miss next year!

Spoiled Latina Day 2018 OOTD

I cannot believe that after so much planning, SL Day is over. Almost a week ago, I celebrated my city proclomation with a celebration at The Space HTX. A cool, all white warehouse East of downtown Houston. With all the planning I had the last thing I wanted to do was pick an outfit. I like to spoil myself so I called my personal stylist Marisol at Macy's Galleria to help me out. Marisol always makes me feel extra "spoiled" by having my own dressing room with multiple looks for me to choose from, she's not a pushy sales person which I love and she does her best to capture your style based on our preference and personality.

My search began on Monday the week of SLDay, Yes that same week...smh but as a Libra that I am, its normal to be last minute.

SL Pop Up Shop at Summer Fest

My weekend was so eventful. I hosted my 2nd pop up shop at the HTX Boss Babes Summer Fest and I am so glad that I did. I met so many of my followers, amazing women and the cutest children because of course motherhood. The event brought out so many cute businesses that were all owned by women. Gaby and Elyse did a great job in selecting the perfect mix of vendors to show at Summer Fest. 

As a Blogger, I decided to make some merchandise that represents me and other Jefitas - Jefita Bonita is my line of cool mercy for the modern day latina. I have Boss Mom T's, Jefita Bonita T's and another shirt that says Powerful Queen Beautiful Latina which sold out, and my hats come in different colors and my denim Spoiled Latina hat was the most popular item of the weekend.

My conchas were also a big hit!

Thanks to everyone for the kind words, for taking pictures with me!

See you guys at Spoiled Latina Day! 

In honor of SL Day and my pop up, my nails!

Honored on Mother's Day

Mother's Day at my house is everyday, I promise it is. My husband is a sweet heart, he puts in countless of hours making sure that things run smoothly at home, we go out for massages at least once a month, he treats me to countless mid day lunches and spoils me with making sure that my business is running smoothly and that I am not stressing over anything. Which is hard, because LIFE!

Yvette Adams, Founder of Diamonds and Pearls Foundation 

This Mother's Day was special and different, I was honored by Diamonds and Pearls Mothers Foundation an organization who strongly believes in my brand recognized me for my community contributions. 

Diamonds and Pearls Mothers Foundation is a Houston organization that works with women and children to help them be self sufficient. The organization honored other women along with a few friends in the industry who are also contributing their amazing talents to society. The Gala, was something sweet that my family was able to witness and it was special for my son to be there with me.

Congrats to all, and thank you so much for my honor!

Boss Ladies!

What I wore to Latin Billboard Awards

This year the hottest Latin superstars in music gathered in Las Vegas for the 2018 Latin Billboards and I was going to be there covering the show for Latina Magazine so first order of business was my #OOTD. 

Thankfully for me, I did not have to stress out like I normally do. One quick call to My Stylist at Macy's and they had me covered. I'm going to let you in on a little secret. "My Stylist" at Macy's is a  free....gratis.....yes! complimentary service that is available at all Macy's stores nationwide where you can simply make a call, describe your wants and styles to your stylist and they will gather the looks, meet you in a private dressing room and style you all for the low low price of NADA! 

This is the easiest, most convenient way to shop, especially when you're on a time crunch or just like me - are always too busy to walk in the store and look for the perfect outfit. 

I actually met with "My Stylist" in Macy's Fashion Show in Las Vegas. They had an assortment of dresses, a variety of colors that I honestly wanted to take them all home, but was there for 1 dress, 1 event so I had to FOCUS!! lol 

I chose a fabulous long navy blue dress by Betsy Adam

my accessories were by Givenchy

and I wore my Gucci tennis shoes for comfort due to my foot injury 

take a look at my video and leave a comment below if you love the outfit!!

Macy's Backstage carries home decor and kids shoes which Macy's doesn't carry inside their stores. They also have a nice sized beauty department with a good selection of beauty finds such as hair dryers and straightening tools.
