A #CosmoSummerSplash Night's Dream

by @ElyGutierrez19

Llevaba días nerviosa, preparándome para estar lo mejor posible... Iba a ser la conductora del CosmoSummerSplash... una noche de verano soñada, y estaba entusiasmada con la propuesta de Cosmopolitan. 

Cada vez que me enfrento a un nuevo reto profesional, intento dar lo mejor de mí. Ensayos, elección de vestuario, maquillaje, cabello... parecen cosas superfluas pero es parte de lo que soy, de lo que represento, de mi carrera, y me gusta estar a la altura. 

Superada esa parte de imagen, quiero ser yo, sentirme cómoda en lo que hago, es fundamental. 

El color de la noche era el blanco. Así que sólo tenía una cosa en mente buscar mi estilismo de esa noche. Nueva tarea que asumí personalmente. Me gusta elegir que me pongo. Después de muchas pruebas me decidí por este sencillo pero divino vestido de Azzedine Alaïa. Super cool y muy femenino. Sin apenas accesorios. Mi cabello tal cual, sin artificios, buscaba volver al natural. 

Y llego la noche, me sentía perfecta, cómoda, muy yo, y me divertí. Me trataron increíble!  

Nada como saberte Tú... ser fiel a tí misma. Cuándo descubres que estás haciendo algo que te motiva, te llena, que estás entregando esa parte de tí, nada ni nadie puede hacerte creer que no seas UNA ESTRELLA! SÓLO TÚ ELIGES SERLO. #RiseandShine.

Love ... Ely

"I was nervous for days, preparing myself so I'll be at my best. After all, I was invited to host the CosmoSummerSplash - a midsummer night's dream, and I was so excited about this amazing invitation. 

Every time I face a new professional challenge, I try to give it my all. Rehearsals, choosing outfits, make up, hair... It seems like such small details, but it's part of who I am, my career, what I represent. Which is why I always try to raise the bar, set a high standard. 

Having gone over the image part, finally I just WANT TO BE ME, feel comfortable in what I do, that to me is fundamental. 

The reigning color of the night was white. So I had one thing in mind, I have to put together the perfect style for the event. A new task I personally took on myself this time. I like choosing for myself what I wear. So after many debates and trying on different pieces, I decided to go for this simple yet divine dress by Azzedine Alaïa. Very cool, effortless and ultra feminine. With hardly any accessories. Less is more, remember? :) My hair as-is, nothing artificial, I just wanted to go back to basics. Natural is beautyful. 

And the night finally came, I felt perfect, comfortable, very much ME... And I had a blast! I was treated incredible! 

There's nothing like being YOU, feeling comfortable in your own skin, staying true to yourself. When you discover that you're doing something that motivates you, fulfills you, that you're giving this part of yourself; nothing and no one can make you believe that you are not A STAR! 

It's a decision that is only up to you to make.
