I love this trench coat and I also love that it has pockets!

I actually got a lot of compliments on these shoes the past couple of days so I just keep on wearing them. 

Check out a close up of them here. 

This top is so pretty I was scared to get it dirty the whole day, but so far so good. 

It's also very stretchy and comfy.

Throughout the day it got really hot and I threw that trench coat off. 

This crazy weather I never know what to wear (lol). 

Sally Hansens

Lacey Lilac (270) such a pretty purple and I had seen Katie from theFashionKlozet mention it on her YouTube video so I had to give it a try. 

Breezy Blue (481) such a pretty sky blue color, I had never tried out this color and I am loving it!! 

Julieg 

Cabana boy Love this color its on my toes right now such a bright pretty blue. 

Gelato Venice is a minty green color and I can't wait to wear it. I love minty pastel colors. 

Wet n Wild

This one from Wet n Wild has to be one of my favorites its this beautiful coral color Tropicalia. 

I love coral!!

Alfresco is a pretty sky blue, I love how it looks. 

I got so many compliments on both these polishes this past week. 

I'm sure I'm not the only one with this problem (lol) my nail polish collection has been growing and growing these past couple of months. Let me know if you want to see swatches of them or check out my Instagram, 

I post my nails of the day pretty often. 

I hope you enjoyed my mini nail polish haul!

Step 1: Pick a T shirt

Here's what I'm working with. 

I've been told these birds are so ugly (lol) but I think its a cool design and the shirts themselves are so soft and comfortable that I don't care. 

Step 2: 

Take your Graphic T and lay it on a flat surface so that it's even. 

Step 3:

Decide where you want to start cutting your T shirt.

I started under the arm pit to not have any extra material. 

Try to cut as straight as possible, but this is not meant to be perfect and trust me mine was far from perfect. 

But that's the point. 

Step 4: 

Fold the shirt over to the other side and make it as even as possible. 

Begin to cut around the same spot as the first sleeve. 

Quick Tip: 

Cut with one hand and with the other tug on the shirt to keep it straight. This will make it easier to guide the scissors to cut where you want. 

If you want and if your shirt is long like the one I'm using, cut the bottom of the shirt. 

I decided to do a high low at the bottom since the shirt is so long. 

Step 5: 

Use a colored pencil to outline where you will be cutting. 

Begin cutting and shape it how you want. 

Finished product. 

I think it turned out great! 

I can't wait to style these let's see how it turns out!!

I hope you enjoyed this post and if you give it a try let me know or share with me on Instagram with the hash tag #dailydiarybygabriela. 

Thank you so much for stopping by!

These were my favorite face products for the month. Trust me I have more but I would just be repeating my favorites from last month.

List of Products: 

EOS lip balm

Garnier BB Cream

ELF Make-up Mist&Set

I love these little EOS lip balms they work great and they're also super cute. 

I like carrying this one in my purse. 

This Garnier BB cream was one of my favorites on days I didn't want to wear make up but I was running around all day and wanted to wear some type of coverage and also protection from the sun. 

-I love that this BB cream has SPF 15. 

The only thing I don't like about it is how messy it gets. Other than that its great, it can get a little oily but I always apply a face powder over it to even it out and make it matte. 

I love this mist, I recently hauled it and I use it every day about two times a day.

I had never really used Burt's Bees lip balms, but this one caught my attention. 

With me being sick and having allergies my lips have been really dry and this has helped so much!

It has pomegranate oil and its 100% natural, it feels really good after applying it.  

Hair

I have been loving this stuff. Check out my full review here. 

Nails/Spa

This stuff is amazing!

My mom bought it from a co worker through Armand Dupree, it's similar to AVON.  

I use it while I'm in the shower with hot water and it leaves my feet nice and soft. 

Great for at home pedicures. 

It reminds me of the stuff they use at the nail salons it feels just like the orange scrubs. 

Nail Polish

Another obsession of mine is NAIL POLISH!!

This past week I went crazy at the drug stores for it. 

All the pretty colors out right now I just couldn't help myself.

I have a post coming up on close ups and a list of all my new polishes. Stay tuned for that. 

Fashion

I swear I think I wore these almost every day of late march and the beginning of April. 

I could not get enough of them!

These past days have been to hot to wear them (lol) but any chance I get I love the style of these boots and I am obsessed.

Check out some of my previous posts to see how I style them. 

(OOTD and Military Inspired.)

I hope you enjoyed my April Favorites!

What were some of your favorites for April??

Can you tell that I am obsessed with the peplum style?

I was looking for more work shirts because most of the ones I have are all black and for the spring and summer I'm looking for cooler, fresher shirts. 

This shirt was perfect two of my favorite things the peplum and the lace all in one.

Price: $17.80

I later found a similar plain white one for less but it didn't have the lace and I couldn't let go of the lace top.

I tried it on and it was so comfortable and fit just right. 

Ocean Blue

I fell in love with this ocean blue tank top. 

I loved the color and it's also silky very fresh tough (I wore it already). 

Another one I couldn't pass up for only $9.80. 

Not sure how I feel about the back zipper, it serves no purpose and it's hard to zip up after you put on the shirt (lol) I actually forgot to zip it up so, oops! 

I do like that its black and gold though. 

Casual Shorts

I feel in love with these shorts; I have been searching for some light weight shorts for the warmer weather (non jeans material). 

I tried these on and they fit just right, not too short and they have pockets. 

The little gold detailing in the back pockets also very cute. 

Price: $15.80

Beauty Haul ~ Target & Walgreens

I just picked up the essentials for me at Target. 

Make up wipes by Up&Up

I can't be without make up wipes because I break out which is what happen to me the last couple of days.

Even if I'm tiered at the end of the night its so easy to wipe my make up off with these wipes. 

I saw they had a new scent so I had to try it out, cucumber, yum!

I used them last night and they left my face feeling fresh and clean. 

Make-up Mist & Set by ELF

I haven't seen this at Target the last couple of times I have gone, so I was very excited to find it.

I love this stuff especially right now with the hot weather! I like spraying this on my face after applying my make up in the morning and also later in the day to re-fresh my face its very refreshing. 

I also find it works very good, it keeps my make up on longer throughout the day. 

Covergirl Outlast 3 in 1

This is my holly grail foundation no joke. I recently ran out of it and used what I had and tried of different foundations and my skin didn't like any of them. 

I love this foundation for so many reasons, check out my full review here. 

I picked up the last shade they had at target that was closest to my shade and it was 'nude beige' it actually matches me very well. 

I can't rave enough about it, I almost wanted to buy a back up and would have if they had anymore. 

It's so funny because I'm a big bargain shopper and later after purchasing this foundation I realized I didn't even check the price; that's when I know I love the product, haha. 

Maybelline ~ The Falsies volume Mascara

I just ran out of my mascara and had to pick up a new one. 

I haven't tried this one so I decided to give it a go. 

Nail polish

I love getting my nail polishes at Walgreens; they are always organized and they have many selections, at least the one I go to. 

These two colors stood out to me for spring. 

Wet n Wilds ~ Tropicalia (210C)

Sinful Shine w/ Gel tech ~ Allfresco (1219)

I had so much hauling all this stuff I needed a little tiny retail therapy. 

I hope you enjoyed!!

What it Claims:

The first shampoo to have encapsulated beads of super fruits goji berry, passion fruit, and kiwi. 

Leaves hair ultra-hydrated, weightlessly silkier and softer. 

Weightless, silky hair for two days. 

This particular one is for dry hair and meant to be recharge the hair.  

(Check out the website here.)

Price: 

Varies from store to store. 

(Look for coupons I got a dollar off coupon and used it on each one.)

My hair air dried. 

First Impression: 

 I have to say when I first saw this product I was a bit scared I would come out of the shower with little blue beads in my hair, haha! When I first used it I made sure to rinse my hair very good, and the little beads easily dissolve into hair leaving it light weight and silky smooth in seconds. 

After a couple of hours of washing my hair. 

 No heat on it all natural. 

My Opinion: 

I love this stuff! I have always been a fan of Garnier Fructis products.

Along with the shampoo and conditioner I use the Garnier Fructis Moroccan Oil and the Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine spray. I love how it leaves my hair. It leaves it just how it claims, lightweight, silky and soft and it also smells pretty good. 

I also feel like some shampoos create build up on my hair and this shampoo doesn't do that. 

After washing it my hair feels clean, weightless, silky, smooth and smells great. 

My little sister agrees with me, she also loves it and her hair is thick and stick straight. 

Quick Tip:

I have yet to give dry shampoos a try, so on days that I have second day hair and its getting oily what I do is apply a small amount of baby power on to my hands and slowly massage it into my hair, it absorbs the oils and leaves it oil free. Also very inexpensive. 

Overall I give this shampoo and conditioner a 5 out of 5. 

I hope this was helpful!

I got my hair done the night before my promotion so this was my hair in rollers to keep the curl. 

Can you tell how exited I was?! lol.
