December 2017 Instagram Recap

I think I still can’t believe it’s January 2018. December felt like it flew by in a blur, as all holidays do. The holidays are my favorite time of year and I’m so sad they’re over! Full disclosure, our tree is still up and will probably stay up for at least another week. Enjoying it while we can. Besides, we’re Cuban, 3 Kings Day hasn’t even passed yet! 😉

I think my December Instagram feed has been my all time favorite! My Instagram is going really well at the minute with the help of platforms like Kenji being developed, and I’ve even been recommended to buy Instagram likes to improve my page further. Not sorry for the 3000 photos of my living room I shared, or the thousand times I shared my fave slippers, mugs, and Christmas pjs. Even family photos from a family photography Austin are uploaded! Everything is just so Insta-worthy in December, right?! I know some people struggle with the algorithm and their outreach is limited because of it, but you can always visit website that helps with growth if that’s something you are looking to achieve. We also were fortunate to have a few cold spells here in Miami, which really helped to get me into the holiday spirit. (My cocoa obsession is REAL! I started having at least one day… which I may just continue to do forever, whatever.)

Today, I wanted to share a look back at December on my Instagram feed, and share details for all my posts, in case you’re not big on LiketoKnowit. I personally am LOVING the LiketoKnowit app. (I have a story highlighted on my IG profile, showing you exactly how to use the app, in case you are curious!) Don’t forget that you can always also click the Instagram Outfits tab in my top menu for all of the shopping details. (You can click through to this page via the link in my profile too that says “Shop my Instagram”)

If you’re not following me on Instagram, you can do so here! Come by and say hi!

Putting some finishing holiday touches ???on the living room and having my 2nd Hot Chocolate of the day, extra marshmallows????? I add marshmallows as they melt, anyone else?? ? gimme all the cozies! Peek at IG stories for a peek at the full room. Think I’ll do a reveal post on Tuesday, what do you think? Let me know if you wanna see ??? http://liketk.it/2tGNn #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKholidayathome #LTKunder50 #LTKhome @liketoknow.it.home #holiday #christmas #holidaydecor #holidayhome #target #targetchristmas #cozy #cozyhome

My calendar is JAM PACKED over the holiday season, which means multi-tasking is a must. First step in ALL of my holiday beauty looks? Applying @Crest 3D White Professional Effects Whitestrips. I love that I can #whitenwhile I apply my makeup… after just 30 minutes, my smile is sparkly and I’m ready to rock the bold red lip that’s my holiday signature. My go-to beauty look: shimmery rose gold eyes, tons of mascara, glow-y skin, and a bright red pout. (PLUS pearly whites, of course!) #CrestSmile #ad #holidaybeauty
