CELEBRATING MOMENTS WITH Häagen-Dazs® Ice Cream

in Food & Recipes on 06/20/17

*Disclaimer: This post is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Häagen-Dazs® Ice Cream and Walgreens. All opinions and stories are mine alone. Thank you for supporting sponsored opportunities on WOS.

Happy Tuesday everyone! Hope you all had an amazing week and are enjoying Summer! I’m getting ready to leave to Europe tonight! YAY! I need a vacation! I’m so excited to team up with what is one of my favorite ice cream brands, aka Häagen-Dazs®, to share with you how I celebrate LIFE and embrace the things that come my way.

Häagen-Dazs’ journey to extraordinary began when they decided to pursue their passion, crafting the world’s best ice cream, which has kept them going for 56 years as they stay true to who they are and their core beliefs. I totally relate to these values and I’m really grateful for that.

Being grateful is something we should practice every single day. Multiple times if you ask me. You are alive and reading this post, so that’s already something you should be thankful for. Do you know what that means? You are breathing, you are healthy, you can see, you had an education because you are able to read and understand these words, you have access to the internet and to a computer (or phone), and in a few minutes you’ll be ready to go to Walgreens or Duane Reade and buy some ice cream and create you very own #HDMoment because they are on SALE!

Thank me later for that!




No, but seriously. You are lucky and so am I. If you’d like to dig deeper on this subject make sure to read this post I wrote over a year ago: 30 days of gratitude. But for now, and for today I want to share with you the things that make me happy and the moments I celebrate with Häagen-Dazs:

  • Getting a new gig for the blog! As bloggers we struggle. We get so many no’s that it’s insane, seriously. To be in this business you have to be tough and learn how not to take things personal, which in particular is really hard because when a brand says no to your brand, they are kind of saying no to you as well hahaha. However, most times when someone says; “yes, we want to work with you and pay you what your work is worth”, it somehow erases all those nasty no’s. Ironically enough, I celebrated this collaboration with Häagen-Dazs, eating a Häagen-Dazs. Every campaign brings me closer to my goals, so I am very grateful for each and every one of them.

 

  • I celebrated my dad for Father’s Day. Actually, I celebrate this guy every single day (and my mama too!) but on special occasions I make sure they feel and know how important it is to me to have them in my life. I’m a very lucky girl because I have a beautiful family that loves me and supports me no matter what. They always have my back and viceversa, and I do not take any of that for granted.


  • I celebrate Sundays! Yes, this is my favorite day of the week because I sleep in, I go to Church, I have brunch, I listen to Sunday Morning by Maroon 5 (every Sunday morning, yes!), and I just relax. I always indulge myself by the end of the day. I like to read a book or a magazine in bed while eating ice cream and plan out what the following week is going to look like.



I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I did. Not only the writing part, but you know, someone had to eat all that ice cream! Share with me in the comments below; what is your Häagen-Dazs moment? Remember to share it on Instagram as well by using #HDMoment and enter their sweepstakes here:

    Ooooo I love Haagen Daaz ice creams! They were my go to when I went through sad times and just wanted to do nothing but binge watch drama serials and eat the ice cream from the tub. It is so true that we have to be grateful for everything we have in our lifes and the people in it too.
    I love the decor in your bedroom which looks so inspiring and filled with positivity!

    Haagen Dazs definitely brings back memories of sitting outdoors sharing ice cream with the people I care about the most. I really like your message about being thankful for what you have because some people take their family for granted or don’t share enough good memories with them. Thank you for sharing! Xo, Jessica

    Well you don’t have to sell it to me anymore than just mentioning the name Haagen Dazs lol. During this pregnancy, ice cream is like my diet, pretty much. I’ve been stacking up on mint chocolate, because I love the sweet chocolate and vanilla and the refreshing mint. I love how you celebrated with your dad, it is so sweet, and Sundays too. Love Maroon 5 “Sunday morning”. You remind me there are so many moments worth celebrating, and celebrating with ice cream!

    So, I’m a little jealous because I LOVE Haagen Dazs! Literally, after my morning coffee, I am going to go up to Walgreens and buy some. Best ice cream, hands down! I love your positive vibes! We should be grateful everyday. As bloggers, we are rejected, a lot! But the ones who do appreciate our value, make it all worth it. Thanks for sharing and have fun in Europe! XO

    I cannot agree more, we have to be thankful for every single moment in our life and enjoy it as much as possible. That’s so nice to hear that you decided to collaborate with Haagen-Dazs, I love their vegan ice-cream and share their philosophy!
    And wow, you both look so happy together with your father. These are the moments we need to cherish. Love the photos! <3

I love that you really put things into perspective here! It’s so so easy to get consumed with everyday minor struggles that we forget how incredibly blessed we are! I so love reading your blog post because you are so grounded and real!

    I love that you are so positive and are thankful for everything we have, is a good reminder for all of us. Sometimes being in the blogging business is very hard and it gets discouraging to continue what we love doing but than like you said you get to work with a great company and you get pumped up again. Häagen-Dazs’ ice cream is my fiancees favourite ice cream since they have gluten free option and he is celiac. I am so jealous that you are going to Europe, have a great time !

    Yes I agree so much with you that being thankful / grateful is something we should practice every single day. In fact I’ve written a blog post about the 10 reasons to practice gratitude earlier. And I’m a fan of HÄAGEN-DAZS too! I would be extra grateful if somebody treats me to HÄAGEN-DAZS nowadays LOL!

They are just so decadent and delicious it is always a treat to have their ice cream. I am grateful for meeting amazing bloggers like you and hearing everyone’s story. I love the photo of you and your father as I lost mine a few years ago and it is beautiful to see your relationship. Thank you for this post and reminder to be grateful. xoxo, Christine

    Would you believe I’ve never had Häagen-Dazs’ ice cream or their products before? After seeing these pics, you’ve made me want to take a trip to my local Walgreens asap to see if it tastes just as amazing as it looks…omg! So glad you got to spend time with your father for the holiday. If him and your mom support you, they both must be amazing!

OH, HI THERE!

Hi guys! My name is Aimara and I’m the voice behind Ways of Style.

I created this Blog as a space to express my thoughts and life experiences while wearing cute outfits of course! At the same time I want to encourage you to always be yourself, without caring what the world thinks about it.

I believe that we all have a specific purpose in life, but you can only find it by being 100% you and following your heart & intuition. In May 2014 I came to this country with a dream and with all my belongings in a suitcase, with nothing but determination to make it happen.

I’m so happy it’s been in the 30’s, because this is the coldest we can handle 😂 Thank you Chicago 🙏🏻❤️

Hope everyone’s having a nice week so far! We got our test results back negative so I can finally see my family ❤️ It’s a good day today 🙏🏻

Another basic piece you should definitely have in your closet because you can wear it with basically any bottom or layer it in any way you want!

I’ve been living out of a suitcase for the past 3 months and even though my wardrobe is not super exciting, I’ve managed to have fun with what I have. I basically have 7-8 different bottoms, 6 basic neutral t-shirts, a couple of sweaters and a button down shirt. That’s it!

It’s been ok too because I haven’t been anywhere, so I really have no reason to dress up 😂

One of my happiest moments of 2020 by far! I freak One of my happiest moments of 2020 by far! I freaking did it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I don’t often take the time to be proud of myself but today I’m doing just that ❤️
We’ve been talking about getting certified for scuba diving since forever, but this past December we decided to finally go for it. 

Why?
Because this was one thing we were going to do on our trip around the world and since the trip has been postponed until God knows when, we felt like we needed to do something to cheer ourselves up.

I didn’t think it was going to be this hard. I’m not used to face my fears like this or to push through when I feel like quitting, but this time I was determined. I think the @hellofears book made a huge impact in me. Now I promise myself to keep learning new tricks and to push myself outside of my comfort zone as often as I can. Enough of talking about doing things and let time pass by and not do anything at all. Enough of that!

What’s next? Well right now, we are in Chicago until January 30th, but we’ll spend February and March in Boca & Tampa (and then back to the Midwest!), so we already signed up for freediving & windsurf! Both extremely challenging, mentally and physically, but what the hell, we are going for it anyways!

I encourage you to think about some of the things (big & small), you’ve been talking about doing forever and somehow life got in the way and you kept postponing them. Write them down and challenge yourself to do it. Make yourself proud. There’s no better feeling! Just do it for you!

Even though I’m not writing resolutions this year (I always have, but I felt like the universe betrayed all of us in 2020 💔)I’m making a permanent change in my life: push myself, be brave and open the door for new feelings and emotions to arrive. I’ve been living way too comfortable for way too long!

Special thanks to Eric (@globaldiverscuba) for being so kind and patient and of course @diveforcee for being the best scuba store in south Florida. We found them on Google and they were amazing! Can’t recommend them enough!! 💙

Counting the days to see my girls!! Hi 👋🏻 W Counting the days to see my girls!!

Hi 👋🏻 We are currently quarantining in Chicago! We ran into a few very unpleasant issues with our new Airbnb (surprise surprise!), but we got over pretty quickly! Proud of us for doing that 😉

Yesterday I tried to sit down to write down goals for 2021 and honestly, after the crappiest year of all I felt like it was pointless. There’s so little I can control and the only thing I have the power to change is my mindset. 

How do you guys feel about 2021? Hopeful? I’m really trying to have no expectations because this past year has been so devastating that I don’t want all my hopes and dreams to be crushed again 💔 2020 is not exactly ending on the happy note we hoped for as a family, so I’m really hoping all this bad energy to be washed away tonight! #bye2020

Who knows what awaits... so for the first time ever I won’t write any resolutions, just trying to stay positive and faithful to the one who knows better 🙏🏻 How about you?

I wish you the best for 2021 though! It’ll be a party of 2 for us, eating some Venezuelan food and some wine 🍷
Happy New Year’s Eve! ❤️

Hi guys 🖤 Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I usually Hi guys 🖤
Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I usually take this time of the year to disconnect from social media and allow myself to dream and think about new year goals without being influenced by everyone’s highlight reels.

It’s been an unusual year for sure and even though I can’t wait for it to be over, I’m also forcing myself to take the time to appreciate the lessons I learned. I received a lot of bad news this year, but this last month it’s been good. So good, that it almost made me forget about the past 11 where I felt I was living in an emotional roller coaster. I’m very happy to be here in Florida and challenging myself to learn new things. I feel so brave and that’s a feeling I never want to deprive myself of. Ever again.

I’ll share more later, but today I’m mostly posting to wish you a safe Christmas this year. In whichever way you decide to celebrate, I hope you find joy in the little things ✨

I didn’t do any of my treasured Venezuelan traditions this year, but I did have hallacas yesterday (they are the best, and you have to order them with enough time to @meencanta.21), tonight we are having Indian food and tomorrow, we’ll do dinner at G’s sister. We leave to Chicago on Sunday, so we are making sure to spend a lot of time outside in the next few days ❤️

Anyways, take care beautiful people. Can’t wait to catch up soon! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate 🎄

I cannot live without my white t-shirts and I think this should be one of the first pieces you incorporate into your #capsulewardrobe

Also, in these photos, I’m wearing all the “bottoms” I packed in my suitcase for Dallas. I think I’m only leaving out a maxi skirt that I only wore once and I’ll share the look next week. I pretty much packed 6-8 bottoms, a couple of sweaters for layering, a few t-shirts, 2 chambray shirts and 2 pair of shoes. And I survived!

If you scroll down my feed, you can see the latest looks I’ve posted with the same pieces and hopefully get some ideas for you to recreate at home ☺️

Counting the days to see my girls!! Hi 👋🏻 W Counting the days to see my girls!!

Hi 👋🏻 We are currently quarantining in Chicago! We ran into a few very unpleasant issues with our new Airbnb (surprise surprise!), but we got over pretty quickly! Proud of us for doing that 😉

Yesterday I tried to sit down to write down goals for 2021 and honestly, after the crappiest year of all I felt like it was pointless. There’s so little I can control and the only thing I have the power to change is my mindset. 

How do you guys feel about 2021? Hopeful? I’m really trying to have no expectations because this past year has been so devastating that I don’t want all my hopes and dreams to be crushed again 💔 2020 is not exactly ending on the happy note we hoped for as a family, so I’m really hoping all this bad energy to be washed away tonight! #bye2020

Who knows what awaits... so for the first time ever I won’t write any resolutions, just trying to stay positive and faithful to the one who knows better 🙏🏻 How about you?

I wish you the best for 2021 though! It’ll be a party of 2 for us, eating some Venezuelan food and some wine 🍷
Happy New Year’s Eve! ❤️

Hi guys 🖤 Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I usually Hi guys 🖤
Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I usually take this time of the year to disconnect from social media and allow myself to dream and think about new year goals without being influenced by everyone’s highlight reels.

It’s been an unusual year for sure and even though I can’t wait for it to be over, I’m also forcing myself to take the time to appreciate the lessons I learned. I received a lot of bad news this year, but this last month it’s been good. So good, that it almost made me forget about the past 11 where I felt I was living in an emotional roller coaster. I’m very happy to be here in Florida and challenging myself to learn new things. I feel so brave and that’s a feeling I never want to deprive myself of. Ever again.

I’ll share more later, but today I’m mostly posting to wish you a safe Christmas this year. In whichever way you decide to celebrate, I hope you find joy in the little things ✨

I didn’t do any of my treasured Venezuelan traditions this year, but I did have hallacas yesterday (they are the best, and you have to order them with enough time to @meencanta.21), tonight we are having Indian food and tomorrow, we’ll do dinner at G’s sister. We leave to Chicago on Sunday, so we are making sure to spend a lot of time outside in the next few days ❤️

Anyways, take care beautiful people. Can’t wait to catch up soon! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate 🎄

1 white t-shirt - 6 looks 🤍 (Technically 3 diff 1 white t-shirt - 6 looks 🤍
(Technically 3 different white t-shirts, but you get the point 😉) 👉🏻 swipe to see.
I cannot live without my white t-shirts and I think this should be one of the first pieces you incorporate into your #capsulewardrobe

Also, in these photos, I’m wearing all the “bottoms” I packed in my suitcase for Dallas. I think I’m only leaving out a maxi skirt that I only wore once and I’ll share the look next week. I pretty much packed 6-8 bottoms, a couple of sweaters for layering, a few t-shirts, 2 chambray shirts and 2 pair of shoes. And I survived!

If you scroll down my feed, you can see the latest looks I’ve posted with the same pieces and hopefully get some ideas for you to recreate at home ☺️

Let me know what you think or if you need help styling anything just send me a DM 😘
