Staying Organized








I realize that we are four months into the year but I missed to get a planner for this year. I always had a planner when I was in college, this kept me so organized and helped me remember what I needed to do as I tend to forget everythingggg! :) Every since I finished school, I really did not think I had the need for a planner. However, now that I am blogging and trying to plan our wedding, things can get out of control sometimes and I start forgetting stuff again. I have been searching for planners and notebooks to help me make lists and write new ideas and inspiration. It's really hard finding a planner now that it is April, but I was able to find these really great notebooks and notepads. If you have any other suggestions for where to get planners I would really appreciate it! :)

Spring Wishlist


You have no idea how happy I am that spring is here! Even though it has not reached average spring-like temperatures yet, I am still happy that the days are longer and that we no longer have 20 degree weather. What I am looking forward to doing in spring is going out for walks, eating fresh salads, drinking fruit smoothies, and wearing dresses! I am loving maxi skirts and dresses for this spring, floral and flowy ones in particular. I am also really into pastels, especially in crop tops. Vanessa Mooney's jewelry has been catching my attention recently, all her pieces are just so beautiful. I cannot wait for spring to be in full swing, what are some of the things on your wish list?

Blog Name Change


Hi everyone! I mentioned briefly in my last Lately post that I was thinking of a name change for the blog. Well, I finally did it. Welcome to Floral Constellation! :) I finally came up with a name that I really like and that I know I would like for years to come. When I first started my blog, I could not make up my mind about a name for my blog so I just used my name, but I was never really content with it and was always thinking of different names. Throughout the time that I have been blogging, I realized that having a name that you are happy with and that identifies you and your style is really important. I am a lover of bright prints, especially florals and I have always had a fascination with astronomy and anything to do with space. I am always inspired when I see photos of space, especially by the brightness and colors of the stars and planets so I knew I had to incorporate these two elements into my blog name. I would appreciate it if you guys would follow my newly renamed blog on Bloglovin :) I would like to thank all of you who stop by and continue to read my blog, I really appreciate it so much! :) xoxo
P.S. - my instagram and twitter accounts will still remain the same @ChristelPaola. If you would like to keep in touch and check out what I am up to, please do follow me! :)

Bohemian Vibes










I have always loved Bohemian style, but what better time to talk about it with music festivals right around the corner. I love everything about this style - the jewelry, laid-back feel, and just the easy, effortless look that it has. I won't be attending any musical festivals this year, I wish :( but regardless I am still admiring this style for whatever the day brings. I think in my next life I would like to be a full blown hippie haha, I think it would suit me well :). Also, I sometimes think that to pull off this look you have to be very tall, do you guys think so? Nevertheless, I don't care (I am 5'3") and I still plan on wearing flowy, oversized dresses and embodying this trend.
