My Obsession for Dove
Tuesday, December 20, 2016
It's no secret, that I am obsessed with Dove. From its shampoo and conditioner to deodorant to soaps the scents, the quality and overall the feeling I feel while wearing the products is amazing. I feel clean, refreshed and ready to take on the world. Lately, especially during this busy holiday season I have been spending lots of time at Sam's. It's a one stop shop for me and my hubby on getting the things we need to survive this season.
I have already stressed over gifts, wrapping them and the one thing I do not want to worry about is going to different stores ... why stress myself out when Sam's personal care isle has shelves of various Dove hair, skin and deodorant products that you may already know and love, set at prices you can’t beat.
These are a few of the products you'll find, that I've purchased.

•Softer, smoother underarms in just 3 days

Westin Memorial City for a fabulous weekend
Wednesday, September 28, 2016
The Westin Memorial City is one of my favorite Houston Hotels for many reasons. For one, it is located in the Memorial City area, close to the malls and shopping attractions. The staff is extremely helpful and they make sure your stay is what you expected and more. The rooftop infinity pool on the 17th floor overlooking the city is breath taking. The seated areas in the pool area allows for us to walk and see the city in a 360 view. The rooms are spacious and have all amenities you need.
The room I stayed at for my SL Day weekend in July was to die for! It was a huge suite, with a full kitchen, 2 bed rooms and I honestly felt spoiled the whole weekend that I didn't want to leave. They truly spoiled me for my blogs 8th anniversary. Family and friends who were in town to celebrate such a magical weekend loved the property and we were enjoyed the evening on the rooftop. Memories were made, thanks to the Westin.
These are some of the photos of the property and from my stay. The delicious cheese and fruit tray upon arrival was a special touch. The gift bags with goodies from the businesses in the area were great too! I used my coupon for a blow out.
If you find yourself in the Houston area, staying on the West side of town I suggest that you stay at Westin Memorial City.

I'm a Reina Rebelde
Wednesday, September 7, 2016
If you have been visiting my IG page lately, you might have seen me rocking my fierce Moreton color lipstick by Reina Rebelde. Reina Rebelde is a new makeup line created for the todays mujer.
The exquisite and ambitious woman who embodies her powerful cultural duality by showing her gran belleza to the world. She is blessed with many choices: she speaks English y algunas veces español. Because We Can!
She loves being Latina and Americana. She equally celebrates the beauty of her Reina and fierceness and grit of her Rebelde. She embraces her duality and has always understood the fuerza that the perfect shade of lipstick provides to her already-dynamic life and how it powerfully transforms her mysterious beauty.
I am so inspired by how my Latina friends and colleagues are so strong minded, dress with courage and sass yet are heart warming and loving. We know we are smart yet rebellious and thats why I am delighted to be partnering with Reina Rebelde. They are a makeup brand that unapologetically allows us Latinas to freely celebrate the duality of our lives with products that bring out the pride in our beautiful heritage, the fierceness of our spirit and the mysteriousness of our natural beauty.

Drake in Houston
I had a chance to make it to not one but both of Drake and Futures "Summer 16" show dates in Houston and both were so fun but so different...
The first night, I took a friend who loves Drake. We sat on the floor, 8th row, great seats, the energy was on 100! Second night, I had purchased suite tickets with my girlfriends but last minute had floor seats as well.... so what I did was go back and forth which actually ruined it for me. My knee had been killing me all day and moving in an arena that big was not easy. Luckily, I used the elevators but the way my patience was set up that night...lol I wasn't having it!
The last time I had seen Drake was last year for HAW weekend. He dj a set at Lumen for a private party, and the year before that when I sponsored HAW weekend announcement while I worked for Hennessy.

Don't Miss Important Eye Exams For Our Kiddos
Sunday, August 28, 2016
This post has been sponsored by Visionworks. All opinions are mine alone. #MiVisionworks
Where has time gone? A full week of school has come and went and HTownKid aka my beautiful son, Anthony is now a 1st grader. From what he has shared with me about his time in class he's had a wonderful time. With all the hustle and bustle of enjoying our summer vacation and planning for back to school we didn't make time for his eye exam.
I have to be truthful, I wasn't planning on having his eyes checked because for one I never wore glasses as a child. Secondly, he's never mentioned he has troubles with his vision, but the more I thought about it I must get his eyes checked because his daddy was a glasses baby so in reality; there is a 50/50 chance. I'm glad to be partnering with Vision Works to promote the importance of having our kids' eyes checked. They have an easy to use and full of information page for the "Let's go see" campaign that you guys will learn from just as I did.
It's recommend that children get a comprehensive eyes exam between the ages of 3 and 6 so according to the recos we are due for a check up.
What are the signs that my child might have trouble seeing?
- Headaches and dizziness
- Squinting
- Holding books close to their face or too far away
- Sitting close to the TV, computer or tablet
- Twisting or tilting their head to favor one eye
- Frequent blinking or rubbing their eyes
- Inability to judge distance properly (bumping into things)
- Decreased performance in school and athletics
One thing that Anthony does do often is sit close to the TV's at home plus play on his tablet and phone and although I have reiterate it every time he does it anyway - one more reason to get his vision checked.
We have a vision appointment next week, I'll keep you guys updated on the outcome. Wish me luck and hope its not like his hair appointment. If he happens to need glasses, Vision Works has a great and stylish selection of glasses for all children and their personal style.

Walmart now carries Simple’s new formulas - Hydrating Cleansing Oil & Dual Effect Eye-Makeup Remover, gentle formulas to ensure makeup comes off cleanly. I am super busy and make up is a big part of my life, thats why I recommend these wipes, they take all the make up off of your face without leaving the streets of mascara or eyeliner. The beauty of Simple is while its cleaning your face, it i also hydrating and conditioning our skin.

Summer Moments
Friday, August 19, 2016
That's it! In my world, Summer is over and I must admit that it was a great one! We didn't travel far to enjoy ourselves and make memories instead we stayed in Texas and enjoyed
a lot of time outside. My son is 6 years old and this summer he learned how to swim and to end the summer on a splashy note, we decided to take a trip to San Antonio and Canyon Lake. * I know that was kinda cheesy.
Since this was a last minute trip, I hurried to my local JCPenney. The JCPenney store near my house is so convenient and since its not in a mall its I literally go in and out for what I want It's #SoWorthIt - It also may be the law of attraction. J
I was able to find this adorable one piece bathing suit that I wore to the park. It was on sale, which made the purchase sweeter. Matter of fact, JCPenney is having all kinds of sales - they are offering free shipping online and 20% off all purchases more than $100. Thats so convenient for me and us busy moms on the go. They had all kinds of things on sale, my next purchase will be the massage seat. So next time, I share a new blog post I'll be getting a massage while I share my thoughts. :)
Hope you guys have enjoyed your summer as much as we have. What are some of your summer moments? Let me know where I should visit next summer. Anthony didn't get his NY trip in but hopefully we can make it this year or next.

Getting Back To School Ready With Target
Monday, August 8, 2016
Happy Monday SpoiledOnes!
How was your weekend? Ours was entertaining as always with little Anthony. H-Town Kid is heading into the 1st grade and although we make several trips to Target throughout the year, this one over the weekend was different. Our focus this time was getting back to school ready. He's not ready for summer to be over and although it is bitter sweet, I am ready for the next step in his educational life aka mommy needs a break.
He is learning so much, growing so much, has his own energetic and witty attitude.
Raise your hands if you've ever been to Target for 1 thing and end up walking out spending $100 or more all because the many other item that we all of a sudden need are staring at us whispering "buy me". Thanks, I knew it was not just me.
We walked in and of course, Anthony was hungry. I'm always up for some popcorn from Target. We sat for 30 minutes, thats how long it took him to eat 2 personal pan pizzas, I people watched, thanking God that I only had one child to get ready for back to school. We have kept up with his "homework" through out the summer so make his transition into 1st grade easier. .
We headed over to the "School Shop" the Target designated school supplies section where other children and parents were shopping. I am so glad I was not the only one who looked confused while following a list. The color coded end caps made it easy for Anthony to help me shop for his school supplies. He got to pick his 1st grade lunch bag and a very cool Star Wars school box.
We shopped for about another hour, walking through the boys section, picking out new pieces to add to his wardrobe. He loves to try clothes and I love to see how he suddenly transforms himself to a superstar with his confidence shining after he feels good in a new jacket or t-shirt. It's so cute!
Y'all make sure to take advantage of the back to school savings through out the month of August. During the 2nd and 3rd week of August you'll earn a $5 gift card when spending $30, you'll also save 30% off school uniforms and next week kids apparel savings are up to 30%.
Don't forget to stop by the mommy section and spoil yourself a little too. We deserve that cute little something something :)

My husband is the Suave purchaser and I'm the user. lol I use the conditioner, my hair is thick and find that the Suave conditioner helps detangle my hair and leaves it soft, manageable and beautiful.

Pretty in Pink - OOTD
Thursday, July 14, 2016
There is something about the color pink that makes me smile. Its my absolute favorite color. So when I visited the Marshall's store in Miami looking for a bathing suit, somehow I managed to make it to the dress area (its the natural shopper in me) I found this dress. The dress was on sale, took it to the dressing room to try it on and it fit perfectly. I had to buy it. This was my second time wearing the dress, I paired it with a pair of low heels I purchased at Nordstrom and wanded my hair for a wavy look.
I had to film a segment with a local TV station and this made the perfect look. Never under estimate what you can find at Marshalls. It may be difficult when looking through the racks to find the right piece but with a good attitude and some time you'll find it or if you're lucky, it'll find you.

#SLDAY2016 was powerful! (video and pics)
Tuesday, July 12, 2016
“I could have celebrated myself, but I know so many amazing women in Houston, I wanted to make it more about us and less about me.” Yvonne says, “I did this for my mother, my sister, my friends and the ladies who follow me and the ladies who follow my amazing panelist. We all deserved this.” The sold out event which aimed to celebrate women in all facets of their lives did just that. “We hold many responsibilities and ‘all the guests walked away empowered, motivated and stronger and with the desire to work hard but know that they deserve to “spoil themselves a bit more without feeling guilty about it.”
Guests panelist included: Raq-C Cordova a motivational speaker based in LA that had a popular show on Mun2’s Chiquis & Raq C, Devi Brown a TV and Radio personality, Joy Sewing the Beauty and Fashion Editor at Houston Chronicle, Zanetta Jones of the Houston Rockets, Tyzza Macias founder of Factory Glam, Yuridia Gonzalez of 104.5 Radio, Lisa Valadez Assistant Publisher at Houston Style Magazine and Athena Anesti a local influencer who is helping people live better and healthier lives.
SpoiledLatina plans on taking the concept on the road nationally and plans to be in a city near you.
Thank you to everyone who supported the event in one way or the other. all Laundry Detergent, Boost Mobile, Rigby and Pellar, Telemundo, CCM Foundation, Madre T's Sweet Creations, Whatcha Cravin, Marquis Lofts Downtown, Vickys Garden and all my family and friends who made this day come together just nicely.
