Latest News


I've been a fan of Cocomelody website for at least 2 years, I always find something that I love and sometimes I find dresses that I thought I created in my mind but they actually have something really similar to what I wanted.
But today I actually want to talk about something new I found out about Cocomelody that I didn't section.
I'm talking about the Designer Wedding Dresses, where I found the most beautiful wedding dresses I've ever seen, if you are getting married soon and you still don't have a wedding dress I really recommend you to take a look at these beauties, I'm pretty sure you'll fall in love with these dresses just like I did. My brother is getting married next month and I already sent the link to my sister in law so that she take a look and maybe find her dream wedding dress.
I never really thought about how I would like my wedding dress to be like, but these designer weddings dress really got me thinking so I kind of did these wishlist because these dresses are absolutely gorgeous, it kind of made me want to buy one just to try it on :) Even though I'm not getting married anytime soon, but I decided to do my wishlist anyways and share with you, because maybe one of you is looking for a beautiful wedding dress and I would like to help with my suggestions.
I was able to reduce my favorites to only 6 wedding dresses, I must say that it was not easy, but here they are, I selected from a few different designer, so check the website if you want to know which designer is and see more of their collection.
Since I was already on the Cocomelody website, I decided to check some wedding dresses but for the reception because I don't know about you girls but I would like to have two wedding dresses one long and puff and on short and more simple so I found myself on the short wedding dresses section and I have to say that I was surprised the short wedding dresses were as pretty as the long ones, these are my favorites.

Olá ♡
Hoje trago-vos um update sobre a minha vida de Au Pair nos Estados Unidos, como alguns ja devem saber eu ja estou a viver nos Estados Unidos a cerca de 2 meses, mas a  minha rotina tem andando muito complicada e ainda nao tinha tido tempo de vir conta-vos sobre esta nova etapa que comecei na minha vida, vou comecar a publicar um video actual e um video que gravei quando ainda em Portugal ate conseguir organizar-me e comecar apenas a postar videos sobre a minha estadia aqui nos Estados Unidos.

As you all probably know by now, I'm currently living in the USA and working as an Au Pair, this week I found out that I will have to attend a wedding with my host family in August and of course I started to freak out because I didn't bring any formal dress from Portugal so I don't have anything to wear to a wedding and as an au pair I don't have a lot of money to shopping for expensive dresses.
I started to search online, which is what I normally do if I need to buy more inexpensive clothes or dress because I always find something that I like, that fits the situation and that it's more cheaper than if I shopped in physic stores. And found this website that I really liked so I decided to share with you my favorites and ask you guys for opinions on which one you think I should get for this wedding.
The website is called Promonsale and it's as the name indicates a online shop for prom dresses, but I think that you can wear these dresses in many other occasions other than Prom.
I did my research and I went through a lot of dresses online shops and I can tell that on Promonsale.com was where I found the most cute ones and I also found some really cheap prom dresses that definitely do not look cheap. This way I can look good for less money, because I didn't wanted to spend a lot of money on a dress that I will wear for a short period of time, because I don't know anyone, so I will be watching over the kids and as soon as I'm done, I'll leave the party.
So I came up with my favorite top 6 dresses and I would like to get your opinion on which one you guys like the most, because right now  really confused because I like them all.


I also found this category on Promonsale about Short prom dresses which I also really liked and I found 3 that were my favorites and I could see myself wearing but because I'll be playing with the children, short dresses ar probably not the best solution but I decided to share with you guys, because if it was a normal wedding I would definitely go for one of the short dresses on Promonsale website, because they are so simple but at the same time, the details on the dresses makes them so different and beautiful and it not what we normally see on stores, that one of the reasons I love to shop online is because you will find a way bigger selection of different dresses.



Ola ♡ Coloquei hoje no meu canal do YouTube o video que gravei para colocar no meu application da Au Pair in America, quando estava  no processo de me tornar Au Pair nos Estados Unidos. Algumas meninas pediram para partilhar, pois estou com duvidas sobre como fazer, o que devem dizer, onde devem filmar e foi por esse motivo que resolvi partilhar o meu, pois foi o primeiro video que gravei na minha vida, nunca tinha gravado videos comigo a falar para uma camara e fica mais dificil ainda porque temos que falar ingles.
Nao ficou grande coisa, e havia muita coisa que neste momento teria mudado, mas ainda assim partilhar convosco e fiquem atentas porque vou gravar um video a dar dicas sobre o preenchimento do Application e tambem como escrever a Carta e como fazer o Video que irao colocar no vosso application e que as Host Families irao ter acesso.
So algumas informacoes importantes na agencia Au Pair In America, que e a minha, o video nao pode ter mais de 3 minutos e nem pode ter mais de 16mb, para terem uma ideia quando acabei de editar o meu estava com 132mb, mas vou fazer sobre isso mais detalhadamente num outro video, por isso fiquem atentas.
Espero que gostem e não se esqueçam de se inscrever no canal, se gostaram do vídeo, dêem like e se quiserem deixem também os vossos pedidos para novos vídeos.

Sigam-me no Instagram, para acompanharem a minha vida nos Estados Unidos porque actualize todos os dias e enquanto nao consigo colocar todos os videos no YouTube podem ir vendo como sao as coisas por aqui ♡


Hi girls. Today I’m super excited with this post because it will be about Wedding dresses more specifically my sister in law wedding dress. Yes, my brother is finally getting married and as you all probably know I not living in Portugal so I will not be able to attend de Wedding which is heartbroken but they have been so nice and trying to include me in everything that would been doing if I was with them in Portugal.
I think one of the most important things of a wedding is the bride wedding dress and if I was there I would definitely help my sister in law choosing her dress and would go shopping for wedding dresses with her. But since I’m not and the wedding date is right around the corner, we decided to shop online for her dress.
The online shop we choose was jdbridals.com which is the perfect place to shop for beautiful, inexpensive and  has the perfect dress for any event you are having. They offer numerous designs in wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, prom dresses, parties, evening dresses, homecoming, cocktai. And every single one of these dresses are high quality.
When we started to look for wedding dresses we knew we need something beautiful, with good quality but also cheap because they just had a baby and she didn't wanted to spend a lot of money on a wedding dress.
These are a few of our favorites:
And finally after hours of looking in to wedding dress we have a winner. This was the one we ordered and this is my sister in law wedding dress. I'm completely in love with it. It's perfect and stunning.
While we were looking around I actually found a section that I loved so I decided to share with you my favorite Beach Wedding Dresses of JDbridals.com, I think they are so elegant but at the same time simple, I hope you guys like my suggestions.

I was contacted by Dresslink to establish a partnership between their brand and the blog. I always get excited to work with brands because this way I can give you a verified information about the quality of their products, shipping time and also if they have a good customer service.
After I searched their website and see their products I immediately accepted the partnership because I thought Dresslink is the type of brand that suits the blog.
So first thing first, Dresslink for those who are not familiarly with the brand is a worldwide online fashion clothing seller. They supply the most fashionable clothing internationally. They are a legally registered company and have received their business license from HongKong, so purchase at Dresslink.com is really safe.
They are always adding beautiful new styles to their collection and are proud to offer exceptional low price but good quality at the same time.


Now about what I ordered, I liked many products on their website but I ended up getting 5 products.
The fist thing I got was this t-shirt that I was looking for a while, I think I saw a few bloggers wearing it and I really liked it. So when I saw this t-shirt I decided to get one for myself. They also had this same design in a sweater  but I liked the t-shirt way more. The quality of this products is amazing, the fabric is really soft and I got it in size XL because I learned the hardest way that normally chinese sizes are a lot smaller than European size but this one actually has the perfect size and it fits me really well, I'm really happy with this product.

I also ordered this long sleeve irregular blouse in fuchsia, I know they have it in black, white, gray and rose red, I have to say that all the colors were cute but this one catch my eye, I immediately felt in love with the fuschia color. I also love the elbow details.
The blouse is even more pretty live than in the pictures. As for the material is Spandex (Lycra) and I was expecting really bad quality because some photos on the website were not the most flatered, in some of them the blouse look really irregular, like it was wrongly made but when I opened the package I was really suprised by the quality and I'm so excited to wear it.

Now about this sweater... It was a last minute buy because Dresslink has this thing called Flashbuy, where you can get selected products for that day for only 0.01$, which I love, I think it's a great idea. You just have to make an order over 10$ and you can buy a product from the 0.01$ section, and trust me after you start searching on their website, I'm pretty sure you'll make an order over 10$ :)
Well, back to the sweater... I decided to get this sweater and it was 0.01$ like I said, the price is unbelievable cheap and I got the sweater in size XL. Well when I got the package I was really disappointed at this sweater, mostly because of the fabric because it was really bad and cold and also because of the size like I said I ordered XL and it looks like an S or M because it's really small and the fabric doesn't stretch, so it was really small for me but I'm going to give it to my cousin and I'm sure she will love it. Don't get me wrong for a 0.01$ it was a great deal but I would be really upset if I had paid the full price for this sweater.

I was in serious need of a good pair of gloves and I really liked these pair, there were many colors but they were in sale so the red was the only color available at the moment and I actually moved on to other products because I was looking for a more neutral color but after a while I couldn't stop thinking about the gloves and I went back and added to the cart. I was so in love with the design and it decided to get it even in red because it's a really strong color and I was afraid I couldn't use them with a few of my oufits. At the end, I'm really glad I ordered them because, yes, they're a really bright color but it make my outfits really pop out.

And the last item I got, was this set of makeup brushes, I love to buy makeup brushes but I don't like to spend a lot of money on them. I found that some cheap brushes do the same thing as really expensive ones, so I started to buy this kind of brushes and I'm really happy so far.
I got this set of 5 eyeshadow brushes and I'm really happy with the quality of them, they're soft and blend really well, So if you're looking for good makeup brushes but inexpensive ones I highly recommend checking the Dresslink brushes because you won't regret it.

At the end, I'm really happy with my order from Dresslink, because everything as so cheap. I think none of this items was over 5$, a few were in the sale section but the quality of all of these products were so good that I was really surprised.
If you're looking for cute and affordable clothing, Dresslink is the place to shop. Don't forget to check their website to find more beautiful pieces.

The blog has a partnership with Born Pretty Store for a long time and I was already a customer of their store before we started to collaborate, I'm a fan of their products because even though they're cheap, they have great quality and I own a pair of earring a bought from them 3 years ago and they still perfect, so their products also last you a long time.
This time, I received 3 items from them: a necklace, a bracelet and a pair of earrings.
Starting with the necklace, I was looking for this necklace for a while. I saw it on a blog and I immediately fell in love with it.  I got it in the bright yellow color because I wanted a necklace that could bring a pop of color to my black outfits but it had to be simple at the same time. So when I saw this necklace in "person" I was really surprised because it was everything I wanted, I really liked it.

I also got this white bracelet with golden details and I was not a really fan of bracelets I normally don't wear them but lately I've been liking to combine a few bracelets, I think it makes a huge different in my outfit. I got this one because I wanted a simple bracelet but that it could be elegant at the same time, and I got it, this bracelet is really pretty and the white and gold together are perfect it makes the bracelet really bright and pop out. It looks like a very expensive bracelet.

And here's the final item, one of my favorite pieces, "diamond" earrings. I'm absolutely crazy about this kind of earring, I think they look so elegant and pretty and even though they're small earrings I think sometimes they can get as much attention as statement earrings because they're really sparkly. I already own a pair of these earrings but they were a little smaller so I really wanted a bigger pair and these ones have a perfect size, I'm completely in love with them.


I'm really happy with the product I got from Born Pretty Store, they are exactly like the photos I saw and the quality it really is amazing.
So if you're looking for some beautiful jewelry pieces at a cheap price, check their website because you will find something you love, I guarantee you that and the pieces don't look cheap at all.
You can find all of these accessories on Born Pretty Store‘s website as well as many other gorgeous jewelry and accessories. If you order don’t forget to use my coupon code ANAT10, which gets you 10% off your entire order!

Hoje trago-vos um vídeo sobre o meu intercâmbio de Au Pair nos Estados Unidos, eu recebo várias perguntas sobre que agências em Portugal fazem o intercâmbio de Au Pair, qual é a minha, para que serve a agência, etc..,. Então eu gravei este vídeo onde falo de todas as agências que conheço em Portugal, poderá haver mais, falo sobre as diferenças entre elas e aproveitei também para vós explicar passo-a-passo qual é o processo para se tornarem Au Pairs nos Estados Unidos.
