Summer 2024 Outfit Details: Top: Aerie Hey guys!! HAPPY SUMMER! If y'all have been viewing this blog for a while, you know in the past at least I have made the biggest deal out of summer themed blog posts & this summer, I'm telling myself that I will in fact be on my game with summer posts. Summer 2024 is going to be a JAM-PACKED SUMMER & I can't wait to tell y'all more about them. In this blog post, I'm going to kind of go over things that have already happened to me this summer, what will be coming up for me, & maybe goals I want to set for myself this summer.  I JUST BECAME AN AUNT!!! On May 17, 2024, my nephew was born so I went up to the Houston area where my sister lives to go meet my precious nephew for the first time & it was such an unbelievable experience meeting him for the first time & I can't wait for all of the fun & rewarding things that come from being an aunt.  I'm Having a Hot Girl Summer Literally... I will be. In a...

WOW it's been a crazy last couple of months & I'm finally being able to blog again. So, I turned 26 this past Monday & there's so many emotions around being 26. I don't feel too young, but I don't feel too old. It's this weird in between feeling. So now that I have y'all's attention, I will give y'all a short summary of all of the amazing things I've been up to within the past couple of months & I say short summary because I could literally write a whole book on these past couple of months alone, but this is a blog, not a book.  A List of Life Updates & Amazing Things That Have Happened to Me Since April 2023: I started a new rewarding job back in April that has made me a lot more mentally happy & motivated & I feel like I'm closer to finding my tru...

August 2022 Life Update & New Podcast Logo Reveal!!

August 2022 Life Update & New Podcast Logo Reveal!! Swimsuit is from Dillard's HAPPY AUGUST!!! Alexa, cue August by Taylor Swift. What better way to reveal my new podcast logo than on my OG blog? Last time we talked, I had just started my new job & already was seeing life changing things happening to me. That still remains the same, my life is changing in unbelievable ways & my years of hard work are finally paying off! I know I had mentioned that my first episode of Season 3 of my podcast, "It's A BOP! with Jess" was going to premiere August 7 (this Sunday to be exact) but it may have to be postponed. It's not for sure thing, just come personal stuff came up within the past couple of hours that may have me delaying the premiere.  Other than the past couple of hours, life has been GREAT for me lately & I've been pretty content with my life at the moment. I mentioned in a post a few months ago that I've wanted to get back into blogging like ...

This is 25.

 This is 25. Outfit Details: Top: Shein Skirt: Francesca's Hey guys!! This is my first blog post as a 25-year-old (it still sounds so weird to me)! I turned 25 on July 10 & life already has been so positive & great for me. We started off 25 on a very well, AMAZING START! If you haven't read my last post, I updated y'all about how my internship ended & I was going to start a new job at a local apartment complex. I've currently completed 2 weeks at the complex & my life is already changing in so many positive aspects & I'm learning so many interesting things! So, I haven't started officially leasing apartments yet, so I've been watching training videos, answering resident/customer calls, & getting set up on my complex's Instagram. If y'all have known me for a while or have been following this blog for a while, I have been wanting to be a social media manager or content creator for a place I've worked at for so long & it...

Entering a New Chapter in My Life

Entering a New Chapter in My Life Hey guys! It's about time I do another life update post and share what is going on in my life these days while also reflecting on a whole lot. This blog was the blog that started all of my content creating & since I was 19, I have documented every step of my young adult life from getting new jobs, going to concerts, & honestly figuring out the type of content creator I wanted to be & I've done a whole lot of experimenting on this blog with what content I'm passionate about & what content was truly... just a phase.  This was also the platform that made me realize that I wanted to pursue social media & marketing as a long-term career. My career journey has been a wild one & at times, I'm glad I documented all of this because looking back on some of this stuff is just so wild to me but also makes me so freaking proud of how far I have come. When I started this blog, I was 19 years old with a little part time job at ...

Night in the Life of Jess - Self Care Friday

Night in the Life of Jess - Self Care Friday Top is from Shein Hey guys! HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!! I want to get back into lifestyle blogging so badly & if you are new here, I use to be a lot more consistent with this but then life got crazy, I started a podcast, & I launched a whole other blog that prioritizes my award show content ( jessicanicoledeleon.wordpress.com ). Today though, we are going back to my Lifestyle Blogspot roots!!!  It's finally the weekend & I came home from working all day & simply just had the motivation to do a, "Day in my Life" post or as you could say now, "Night in the Life of Jess" post. I use to do these posts so much & it's so much fun to document your day & it's fun to look back on too! Top is from 2Timee & Bike Shorts are from H&M I got out of my work clothes & I'm in a super comfy outfit for lounging around the house. In a little bit, I'm going to get started on dinner. I'll probab...

Summer Life 2022 Update, Season 2 Podcast Finale Announcement, & Early Award Show Predicting Season

Summer Life 2022 Update, Season 2 Podcast Finale Announcement, & Early Award Show Predicting Season Hey guys! It's currently May 7 & I thought I would come on here & share updates on my life & keep y'all in the loop of what's going on with the future of blog, podcast, & award show predicting season content. If you are new to this blog... hey.... this is a blog I've ran & operated since 2017 & I know I've been MIA to focus on other areas of my life but lately, I've really missed this platform & want to slowly get back into the swing of things on here. When I first started this blog in 2017, I had a series of posts called, "Summer Life". It showed my day-to-day routine & all of the fun summer things I was doing while also documenting navigating the crazy world of being a young adult. I'll tag the Summer Life tag underneath this post so y'all get an idea of the posts I would do for this little series. I've t...

Serious #SummerLife & Blog Update.

Serious #SummerLife & Blog Update. Hey guys!! So today's post is going to be a serious & major #SummerLife & Blog Update because I've really thought about this for a while & a lot of changes will be happening, so I will be explaining what changes are happening with this blog & my content in general. For those that have been reading since 2017, this is mainly for y'all. I started this blog in 2017 when I was 19 years old as a fashion, beauty, & music blog because I really wanted to go that fashion blogging route. There were times where my fashion blogging was successful & times where it wasn't as successful & financially, I couldn't go down the fashion blogging route forever because fashion blogging is very expensive. When I found out I couldn't do a strictly fashion blog, I went into lifestyle blogging & I ended up loving going that lifestyle blogging route. Since discovering more lifestyle content, I really lost the true purp...

I'm Slowly Back in My PRIME!!

I'm Slowly Back in My PRIME!! Outfit Details: Top: Old Navy Earrings: Lulus I pre plan my blog posts & I'm currently typing this on June 6, 2021. Don't forget to check out It's A BOP! with Jess on Spotify! Hey guys! I know it's been a while since I last blogged but lately, since I've been getting nomination predictions ready & launching Season 2 of my Podcast, I've been CLUELESS on what to post for my #SummerLife series & the main reason for that is... I've literally haven't done anything eventful enough to post about it. Last night though... I actually got out of my house & did #SummerLife things so let's talk about that! So I worked pretty early yesterday & on a Saturday that's rare for me so I decided to make plans with my best friend. We went out to eat at this Asian place I've been LOVING lately & then we spontaneously went to Port A to help out with a event for her job!  I've missed going to fun little lo...

Summer Life Update.

Summer Life Update. Hey guys! Yes, that is a picture of me above with a Taco Bell freeze. I got the Wild Strawberry one which I have never had before! I got off of work early, so I actually have time to blog, catch up on course work, & other things! This post, is basically going to be a life update post because I feel like I haven't done one of these in FOREVER! I've been blogging for a little over 4 years & throughout the 4 years I've been blogging, I've learned so much about myself & the direction I want to go in as a content creator. I know, I haven't been as active on here this year but that's mainly because I've been putting my main focus on my podcast (It's A BOP! with Jess on Spotify) which I've had a BLAST doing! I'm currently on a little hiatus with my podcast simply because I just needed a few weeks off to be with family, friends, & I've been working a ton lately so balancing the podcast at this moment was truly a lo...

The Annual Beach Trip.

The Annual Beach Trip. Outfit Details: Swimsuit Top: Dillard's Cover Up Skirt: Shein Sunglasses: Jewel's (local boutique) I wish I could tell y'all where the cup is from because it's SO CUTE & PERFECT for my last couple of beach trips! HEYYYY! Yes, I'm coming out of blog retirement slowly but surely! Today's #SummerLife post is going to be all about the past couple of days on my little (kind of) beach trip! My family every May (except for last year), goes on their annual beach trip to Port A & this is such a fun tradition for my family & I. For as long as I can remember, this annual May beach trip has been in my family & personally, it's a fun way to kick off summer! Since Port A is so close to where I live, I didn't spend the night at the condos this time around but next month, we've got a whole other weekend out there! I had an amazing past couple of days out there spending much needed time with family considering I hadn't seen ...

Summer 2021.

Summer 2021. Outfit Details: Top: Target Earrings: Jewel's (Local Boutique) Necklace: Kendra Scott HEYY!! Welcome to the #SummerLife! I know this post is a few days overdue (usually I start my #SummerLife blog series on May 1 but this year is different), but at least #SummerLife is still alive & well (this blog is also alive & well)!  So if you're new here... what is the #SummerLife? 4 years ago when I started this blog, I had this insane obsession with the YouTube summer series Summer Break (if you remember that show you're a real one) & whenever I decided I wanted to create my own content, a summer series like Summer Break had to be included! The first 2 years of doing the series, I would consistently tell y'all my daily summer activities whether it was working, going to the pool, or going to a concert! Summer is my favorite time of year so glamorizing my summer activities was right in my element! At the bottom of the post I tagged a "Summer Life...

Life & Blog Update - 4/9/2021

Life & Blog Update - 4/9/2021 Hey guys! I feel like one of these is SO LONG overdue especially because of how inactive I've been on this blog due to focusing more on my podcast, "It's A BOP! with Jess" (if you haven't checked it out on Spotify.. do it now)! I'm surprised there are still viewers after the podcast came out so I'm really doing this post for those who still view this blog. I'm going to update y'all on my life, the future of this blog, podcast, & more so let's get right into this because we've got a lot to discuss! So how's life going for me at the moment? I've been consistently busy with work, my podcast, & just keeping up with my closest family & friends. I recently got fully vaccinated so I've been adjusting with knowing that & not living in super constant fear over this pandemic (still wear your masks in public)! I'm going to my first concert of the year THIS TUESDAY!!! AHHH! I can't b...

My VMAs 2020 Review

My VMAs 2020 Review Hey guys! Happy Day After VMAs Day!! I am EXHAUSTED but I wanted to really get the chance to talk about last night's show with y'all & really take in what happened! The VMAs is the 2nd awards show I've watched during this whole pandemic (the first was the BET Awards which they did an AMAZING job)! The VMAs was really something during my middle school & high school years that I absolutely LIVED FOR especially when my fangirling days (I would say Stan Twitter but my Twitter account has never truly been a Stan account) were at it's most obnoxious!  This year though since there were no concerts to look forward to, I really for the first time in years really prepped myself up for this year's VMAs! For the circumstances we are in right now, I think the VMAs did a VERY well done job of putting things together & everything seemed to have ran smoothly! I found some real joy when watching this show!  I had 2 of my super good friends over to wat...
