Let's talk lemons, I am a little ok a lot obsessed with lemon prints. I love it, it's bright, and just plain cute. It all started with this blue lemon print dress from the Eva Mendes collection at NY&CO. Sadly I didn't find the dress in my size before it sold out. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As I continued my search for a dress in a similar print, I think I just started to fall in love with everything lemon. So I started collecting left and right anything lemon print I could get my hands on (I told you I was a little obsessed). I found this cute top at <a href="http://www.nyandcompany.com/nyco/prod/new/tops/pleated-shell-lemon-print-/A-prod7210013/">NY&CO</a>, these cute Kate Spade shoes and lemon coin purse on <a href="https://poshmark.com/closet/marieesbella81">Poshmark</a>. </div>

My green purse was perfect for this outfit, it is Globtrotter from <a href="http://www.justfab.com/invite/marieesbella/">JustFab</a>. I have had for over a year and hadn't found an outfit to wear it with. Well I finally found the perfect outfit to go with my purse, I'm so glad I purchased it in this color! What print are you obsessing over this season? Let me know in your comments below. </div>

Thank you for carrying me in your stomach for 9 months. Your belly stretched and left marks that will never go away. Feeling uncomfortable, loosing many nights of sleep as I grew and formed in your belly. Then the labor pains, and finally your baby that you waited to meet for 9 months was born! </div>

The sleepless nights continued as I learned to adjust to life outside of your stomach. The days flew by, you taught me how to walk, how to love, how to be strong. I learned that I could do anything if I loved God with all my heart. I made mistakes but kept pressing forward, because you taught me that no one is perfect.</div>

To celebrate <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/seevanessacraft/cereal-recipes/">Dia De Los Niño's</a>, my kids and I decided to make some Lucky Charm Frozen Bananas. I don't know about you, but I am always on the lookout for quick and easy recipes. My kids love helping in the kitchen. This was a fun activity that allowed us to spend some quality time together. </div>

I peeled the bananas, and put the bananas on a skewer. I then poured some lucky charms onto the plate. I poured some honey on the banana and I let the kids spread the honey with a plastic knife. The fun part for my kids was decorating their banana. My oldest daughter made a really cute face on her banana. Then we put our bananas on a plate and into the freezer for and hour.</div>

I was very excited when I was asked to partner with Toyota and the Phoenix Zoo celebrating Dia Del Niño. Toyota let me use the Toyota Highlander for a few days, and I have to tell you that my kids and I fell in love with this car. The color was a gorgeous wine color with some shimmer in the paint. The inside had luxurious leather seats, the backup camera, the rear view mirrors would light up with little orange lights letting you know when a car was driving next to you. </div>

The Toyota Highlander can sit 7 people, which worked perfectly for my family of 6. Oh, and did I mention that the trunk opens and closes up automatically with a touch of a button? This car would be perfect for any family or mother who needs plenty of room for the kids, it's safe, and very fuel efficient. When it was time to give the Toyota Highlander back, I honestly did not want to! I need the Toyota Highlander, and it's going to be at the top of my list next time I go car shopping. </div>

It was a very busy day at the Phoenix Zoo, because of Dia Del Nino. They had a bunch of booths set up with games for the kids. They had free gifts, my kids had a blast. We came home with new backpacks, books, they got to make bracelets, and won some new toys. </div>

A few tips I would like to give you before visit the Phoenix Zoo. First tip, is take extra sunscreen with you, absolutely necessary to apply again if you plan to stay for more than a couple hours. Second tip, obviously take comfortable shoes, (tennis shoes are best) I would not recommend sandals or flip flops. Third tip, take an umbrella and a hat. I didn't take either one, but I saw quite a few people who took theirs to shield them from the sun and I wished I had taken mine with me. My last tip for you is, that you can take a cooler with wheels, or a cooler in a wagon so you can fill it with drinks, sandwiches and snacks. </div>

I was very honored when I applied and was selected for a Blogger Workshop that Kathy Cano Murillo from <a href="http://www.craftychica.com/">Crafty Chica</a>, Eric Diaz from <a href="http://collectivo.org/">Collectivo</a>, and Ana Flores from <a href="http://www.latinabloggersconnect.com/">Latina Bloggers Connect</a> sponsored the workshop to train bloggers that would represent Phoenix, Arizona. We met every Saturday for a month, and Kathy from Crafty Chica mentored and shared her knowledge with us. She taught us everything we needed to know to run and manage a successful blog. <br />

At the end of the four week workshop, we were able to attend the <a href="http://www.weallgrowsummit.com/">We All Grow Summit</a> in Long Beach, California. Five Pheonix Latino Bloggers who attended the workshops ended up being able to go together as a group to the summit. It was great, the five of us shared two cars both sponsored by <a href="http://marieesbella.blogspot.com/2016/03/roadtrip-scion-ia-scion-im.html">Scion</a> and <a href="http://marieesbella.blogspot.com/2016/03/roadtrip-scion-ia-scion-im.html">Toyota Latino</a>. I had no idea what to expect, but I can tell you this summit truly exceeded my expectations.</div>
<div align="center">
<br />
We met up at the Maya Hotel in Long Beach early Thursday morning where everyone would break up into groups and head out to different venues for the Field Trips. We got to attend a Long Beach tour. We started out on a skyline cruise, we took a tour of to the <a href="http://www.molaa.org/">Museum of Latin American Art</a>, then to the <a href="http://www.aquariumofpacific.org/">Aquarium of the Pacific</a> for a gorgeous lunch, and lastly took a tour of <a href="http://www.queenmary.com/">The Queen Mary</a>. <br />
<br />
The evening finished off with a great party right off the beach with cocktails and music. Thank you Hampton by Hilton for throwing such a great party to kick off our first night at the Summit. <br />

Throughout the next couple days we were non stop with amazing Keynote speakers. A couple of my favorite Keynote speakers were <a href="http://www.rosierivera.com/">Rosie Rivera</a> author of Mis Pedazos Rotos, Elayna Fernandez from the <a href="http://thepositivemom.com/">Positive Mom</a>, and <a href="https://twitter.com/CosmicChristine">Christine Guiterrez</a> a Life Coach who spoke on self confidence was very inspirational. Confidence just so happen to be my word that I chose to work on for this year, and as a reminder I got a stamped bracelet compliments of <a href="http://www.myintent.org/">My Intent</a> to remind me to always wear my crown of confidence. </div>

If I had to pick my favorite snack and connect sponsors I would have to say first <a href="http://www.dove.us/">Dove</a>, because I got my hair styled by beauty expert for Dove <a href="http://antonacerostudio.com/staff/mario-anton/20908/">Mario Anton</a>. He did an amazing job, and he was also very sweet. He talked to me about what type of style was best for my hair and showed me how to achieve the look while he styled me. </div>

Finished off by going to the makeup counter and being able to take everything they put on our face from the skin care to the makeup home with us! </div>

I would love to share all the pictures from the trip, but this post would be so long! Overall it was a life changing experience for me. I learned that "Con ganas si se puede", meaning that you can do anything with hard work. If you want something bad enough you need to work hard for it. I also learned that it is so important not to loose touch of my Latina culture, so that I can pass that on to my kids.</div>

As women we need to remember that we are better off helping each other, because there is room for everyone to grow. We all have something unique to bring to the table. So there is no need to be jealous or envious of one another. Let's find our voice, and let it be heard! </div>

I rode in the red Scion IM briefly, it is slightly smaller than the Scion IA. I also rode and got to help drive the Scion IA, and loved it! The blue color of the car is so pretty. It was so easy to drive, and very fuel efficient. We gassed up once each way. The car is very roomy on the inside. </div>

Being that my very first car at 16 was a Toyota Tercel which I loved so much, and then I later transitioned into a Toyota Camry to fit the needs of my family, I am a big fan of Toyota. They are very reliable, well made, fuel efficient cars. I have a 13 going on 14 year old son, and already I am thinking about what kind of car I would like to get for him when he starts driving. I think this would be the perfect car for him, safe, affordable, fuel efficient, and sporty. </div>

I was so excited when I found out that the Hello Kitty Café was going to be here in Scottsdale Arizona. I absolutely love Hello Kitty, I guess I am a kid at heart. I knew that we would have to wait in a long line, so I pre-warned my twos girls that it would be like standing in line for a ride at Disneyland. A two hour wait, for a two minute experience. We didn't care either way we were excited and determined to go. <br />

We waited in line for about 2 hours. Luckily there was a splash pad in the middle, so my kids played while I waited in line. It wasn't too hot, so I am very grateful for that. It was supposed to be there from 9-8pm. We arrived a little after 5pm, and some of the items had already sold out. I really was looking forward to trying the Macaroons, but we were too late. </div>

It was worth waiting in line for 2 hrs, the pink Hello Kitty Mercedes van is super cute. Complete with bows on the rims of the tires. It's like a pink Hello Kitty dream. I purchased a couple boxes of cookies, and some cute bow shaped water bottles that we have been refilling with water and reusing of course! .<br />

I wanted to share a quick DIY with you. The boxes that the cookies came in were too cute to throw away, so I made a little picture box. I used supplies I had laying around at home, an earring, some lavender potpourri, and a picture. Hope you enjoyed my DIY and post! Please don't forget to SUBSCRIBE and follow me. </div>

One of the biggest trends you will be seeing this Spring are pastels and floral prints. I love floral prints! This Ian purse and Mickey heels from Justfab are so perfect for this trend. You can be matchy matchy like me and get the matching heels and purse, or just add one of these to your outfit. These are very eyecatching accessories that will complete your outfit, and make you stand out. What trend are you looking forward to try this Spring? </div>

Welcome 2015, starting a new year always gets me excited. It's a fresh start, if you missed anything the year before you have a new opportunity to do better this year. I didn't get to blog enough, I really missed it! My blog is a place I can come to and share my thoughts, my fashion, my anything. I'm no one special, but if I can inspire, or help anyone in any way then that makes me happy. </div>

Fur is one of the biggest fashion trends right now. I love my faux fur vest that I got from JustFab, great price, and great value. My JustFab boots are from last season, but I still love them. They are the perfect heel height, very comfortable to walk in. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What are you looking forward to this new year? Have a fabulous weekend!</div>

I love how fast and easy it was to update my FREE Cox WiFi! The only thing we needed to do since we were already a Cox internet subscriber, was reset the modem and just like that my family and I were able to do so much more with double the speed. Now we can connect our 9 devices to the fastest WiFi without a problem. Make Sure to check out Cox's <a href="http://coxcomm.tumblr.com/">Tumblr Page</a> and their <a href="http://facebook.com/coxcommunications">Facebook Page</a>. </div>

With all the time I have saved, it's given me time to work on planning my son David's 12th Birthday. I love to DIY and make stuff myself, but as you can guess with 4 kids, a husband, school, homework, it can be a little tough but with a little bit of extra time you would be surprised how much you can do! My son loves Lego's, most of the stores that sell party stuff do now carry any Lego party items. Of course this means I get to do most of the stuff from scratch. I have already worked on the Lego block Pinata, and the pin the head on the Lego guy. </div>

I don't know about you, but my time is so precious. As a busy mother of 4 kids ranging from the ages of 4-11 time is something I wish I had more of. It really is one thing you can never get back, I am always looking for ways to make the most of my time. When I am looking for a last minute recipe, or trying to google information to help one of my kids out with homework, or playing games online a fast connection is the key to saving time. </div>

Welcome back to my blog! I feel extremely strange because I haven't posted to my blog since November so it's been 8 months since my last post. I truly missed it, I just kept saying I will do something on my blog tomorrow. I guess tomorrow is today!<br />
<br />
It is officially summer, but here in Arizona Summer felt official since May. So anyway in this heat I usually live in shorts and dresses, rarely will you catch me in jeans. I decided to dress up my coral shorts with this floral blazer a thrift store find that had been hanging in my closet for over a year! I will mention also that it was a $1 on dollar days at the Goodwill. <br />
<br />
During the day I wore my shorts and t-shirt with casual shoes, and in the evening for bible study I threw on my blazer with the wedges and jewelry. I love adding accessories to change my look for the evening, with 4 kids I have to be able to add something easily. Blazers and wedges are easy things that can turn a casual look into a more polished look. What would you wear this blazer with?<br />

Bon Jour! I love this sweater it's just so cute, I pretty much love anything Hello Kitty. What can I say I'm still a kid at heart. I found this cute sweater on clearance at Kohls yesterday and I just had to have it. I layered it with a denim shirt, faux leather leggings, and my awesome bow heels from JustFab.

Oh baby it's cold outside! It has been pretty cold in the mornings, I now have an excuse to start wearing my coats for a couple of months at least. I joined in the #Coasttocoastchallenge on Instagram challenge to wear white for Fall. I threw on some nude tights, a white summer dress from Charlotte Russe, my pink coat I purchased last year on clearance from Rue 21, and my comfy taupe Karsey boots from JustFab. Would you wear white in Fall? </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have to be completely honest, I did not know who Phillip Lim was before he collaborated with Target. I love fashion but I am not into brand names or designers, but this collection he designed really caught my eye. I did not purchase anything regular price, instead I waited for the pieces to go on clearance. This sweater dress was regular price $44 and I got it for $13.48. I wasn't really sure about it on the hanger, but I ended up loving it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below you can see that the sweater part of the dress is really long, but I prefer to scrunch it up and wear it shorter. The sweater is so soft and cozy, I love the material. The black chiffon type skirt is attached to the sweater, a very cute detail. I am wearing it with my red Betsey Johnson clutch, and my black Karsey boots which I love and have been wearing a lot lately. </div>

I can remember how big of a trend plaid was in the 90's. I remember borrowing one of my grandpa's brown and blue plaid shirts. My cousin Cheryl and I were in the same grade, and we would take turns borrowing it from him. This is a trend you do not have to spend too much money on, you could either raid our hubby's closet, or find a couple of plaid shirts at the thrift store like I did. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the reasons I love this trend is because there are so many ways to wear a plaid shirt. You can layer it underneath a leather jacket, throw a scarf over it with jeans. I wanted to show you two ways I wore my plaid shirt. The first is a skater skirt, black booties, red bag, and black belt. The second look I just swapped the skirt for some comfy jeans, and I had a relaxed look to run around town with kids. <br />

Sometimes as women, mothers, or wives, we spend so much time taking care of everyone else we forget to take care of ourselves. We should always have something to look forward to at least once a month. A massage, a manicure, a pedicure, or ladies night. I am one who truly enjoys my time with my girlfriends. I don't get to do it all the time, so I truly cherish my girl time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The outfit I am sharing with you is from a week ago, I went out for ladies night with a few ladies from church. We did a glam night, we got all dressed up for dinner, and a Flamenco show. It was so much fun! I wore my glam Raven sparkly shoes from the JustFab Luxe line. These are the highest heels I own, thankfully I did not fall in them I was very careful and did not walk fast in them. They are definitely sit down shoes, you shouldn't wear them if you plan to do a lot of walking or standing. </div>

I wanted to share some last minute costume ideas. I was inspired by a couple Disney Characters. I only used items that I already had in my closet. My first look is Belle from Beauty and the Beast, this is my favorite Disney movies ever. My look is more of a modern Belle look, I am wearing a cutout yellow dress from Charlotte Russe, white gloves, and my lovely Raven heels from JustFab. <br />
<br />
My second look is Snow White. In this look I am wearing the same yellow dress, I added a blue blazer from Forever 21 (perfect for dressing in a costume to work), red bow headband, and my red Malibu wedges from JustFab. I love these wedges, not only are they comfortable enough to take them out trick or treating, but they are super cute!<br />
<br />
Last but not least is a Minnie Mouse inspired look. This has to be one of my favorite costumes, I have already used this costume before a couple of times. I made the sparkly Minnie Mouse ears, my pink polka dot dress is an old Maternity dress that I just cannot seem to get rid of, white gloves, and my black Cher heels from JustFab. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Happy Friday! This week went so fast for me, I feel like I blinked and it was over! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In a way it's good, but I didn't get to do anything I had planned, and I am sorry for not posting on Monday like I had promised. I will try to post more consistently, just be patient with me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today we decided to do a blogger collaboration for Breast Cancer Awareness month. You wear pink for the month of October so that we remember to get a mammogram. I have to admit that I have never had a mammogram, and I really need to make time for it. My mother had a lump in her breast a few years ago, but the doctors caught it at an early stage. They were able to remove the lump, and she was fine. The key is to catch it early before it spreads. If you haven't had one done, then make sure you make it a priority! </div>

Please make sure to visit each of the blogs to show these lovely ladies some love! </div>

I am really loving my new booties Karsey from<a href="http://www.justfab.com/invite/marieesbella/"> JustFab</a>! I wore them today for the first time and already got a couple of compliments on them. They are part of the Paulina Rubio Collection, aren't they so different and unique? I love the zipper details, and they are really comfortable. I went up half a size because I like to wear socks with them, but they fit me slightly loose, so I would say these are true to size. <br />

Happy Friday fashionistas! I don't know about you but Fridays are my favorite day of the week, it means that I can stop and exhale. I feel like sometimes I tend to hold my breath throughout the week because I am just so busy. With making sure the kids get to school on time, to helping with homework, and keeping up with the house cleaning, my week always seems to be done before I get a chance to exhale.<br />
<br />
Today I am taking inspiration for my outfit of the day from Eboni from <a href="http://networkedblogs.com/Q3seC">The Fashionista Next Door</a>. The challenge for today was to wear a leopard coat, since I do not own one I am wearing my leopard blazer in place of it. It as actually not cold enough to start wearing coats here in Arizona. Make sure to check out Eboni's blog for more inspiring looks from the other fabulous bloggers. <br />

I can't believe it's almost Friday, yay! Okay so just in case you didn't know today is #spirit day. You wear purple on October 17th to show that you are standing up against bullying. I have been bullied in school, I was always the quiet girl sitting at the very back of the classroom not wanting to be noticed. Unfortunately I was an easy target for some bullies because I did not really stand up for myself.<br />
<br />
It is never okay to bully anyone. Take a stand and make a difference, we need to love and accept each other's differences. Our differnces are what make each and everyone of us unique! How boring would it be if we were all exactly the same?<br />
<br />
I joined in on a blogger collaboration with the Airie from <a href="http://fashiontoliveflstyle.blogspot.com/">Fashion To Live</a>, and Toya from <a href="http://www.inherheels.com/">In Her Heels</a>. Please make sure to stop by and show their blog some love! I decided to show you a Now & Later looks. I am wearing the same skirt, boots, and purse in both looks. My first look is an outfit you can wear to go to the office, and in my second look I just changed my shirt and added a leather jacket. This look is perfect if you want to grab a drink with your friends after work. <br />

I was very happy to recieve Robinson from JustFab's new Luxe line, they are genuine leather boots. I wasn't really sure about the price since I love the $39.95 price on their regular items, but once I received my Robinson boots, I knew that these were a definite investment into my Fall wardrobe. I absolutely love the double buckle details on the side of the boots and I really like that the zipper zips all the way down. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a few ways I have worn my <a href="http://www.justfab.com/invite/marieesbella/">JustFab</a> Robinson boots, and Fall has only just begun! You can expect to see me rocking my boots in a few more outfits this season. Which outfit do you like best?</div>

I want to start a new serious called Monday mood lifter. I don't know about you but I sure can use a lift especially on Mondays! What I will be doing is making a commitment to share something I learned at Women of Destiny the week before in hopes that it will encourage you like it has me. I will also share my ootd, who says fashion and God cant mix? This past Thursday Pastor Dion was our speaker, and wow she is just amazing to say the least.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Your access has been granted" was the title of Pastor Dion's message. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation. The old identity cannot give you access to the new identity. You need to find the woman inside and set her free! You are a daughter of the Living God! You are beautiful, you are unique, you are smart, you are a diamond!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I learned that it doesn't matter what everyone else says about me, I will never loose my identity in Christ. I was created for a purpose. I was not an accident. He knew me by name even before I was born! Be encouraged, stay faithful, and know that you have a destiny to fulfill! <br />

Just in case you are wondering the red spots on my legs are Mosquito bites! Unfortunately they love my legs any time they get a chance they attack me. </div>

My official 2 year Blogiversary was September 20th, I really wanted to make sure I blogged about it but got really busy and I just didn't have time. As I look back at these past two years and thought about how I feel about my blog, I realized that I am no where near to where I would like to be. There is so much room for improvement, I could really use some more consistency on regularly posting. I would also like to be able to share more of me, which would include my faith, my family, and being a little more transparent with my readers.</div>

When I first started my blog I didn't really have a vision of what I wanted it to be. I just knew I wanted to have something that belonged to me, where I could go at the end of the day and feel like I could still be me. It can be really easy to get lost in the mom role, and wife role, and just lose yourself. I have this desire in me to still be that fun, loving, genuine person I once was before I settled into my mommy and wife roles.</div>

Maybe you think that this sounds selfish, but I really believe that everyone needs to have a way to express who they are. Yes I am a wife and mom, but I am also a woman who enjoys shopping, finding great deals, and sharing them with my readers. I don't know where I will be a year from now, but I do know that I really need to sit down and set some goals for myself. I need to start working towards them if I plan to grow. I hope that you will join me in this journey as I grow and find my place as a blogger. </div>
