Outfits of the week | November 5th-8th

I recently posted my outfits of the week from Nevember 5th through 8th on my YouTube channel. I sometimes post here my outfits of the day and I thought some of you might like seeing what I wore during the whole week (well actually from Monday to Thursday cause I didn't have class on Friday) even if it's a video instead of a traditional post.

In the video I also say where everything is from, even my nail polish.

Weekly photos #28

I can't wait until winter break! haha I'm so tired because of college and I just don't like going. I don't want to complain because I know in the end it's good for me, but at the moment it doesn't seem like it. Anyway, I've met a few people who are making it a little better, so I'm grateful for that.


1. I love my new Revlon nail polish! I think it screams fall and I know I'm going to be wearing it a lot. If you want to know what color it is, check out my nail of the day post :)
2. I took that picture after I had to go up the stairs in my building because someone was in line on the elevator already and one of them was broken. I was extremely tired.
3. And here's a picture inside the elevator. I took it because I don't do stuff with my hair very often, so yeah, I had a braid that day.
4. My father bought this pumpkin the other day after I said that I wanted to carve one, so I might do that this week. I'll show you the result on my next weekly post, but I don't think it's going to turn out right haha

Outfit of the day | Beach time!

First of all I want to tell you that right now; well actually when you read this, I'm going to be in London! That's why I'm not going to have as many posts up until the 30th-ish. I apologize for that but I'm trying to schedule some so at least I have something up.

I went to the beach with my family and I initially wanted to show you what I wore each day, but since it was all pretty casual I decided not to. Anyway, I still have a couple outfits to show you and this is one of them.


Tank top - Zara
Top - Forever 21
Shorts - Missguided
Hat - H&M
Bracelets - H&M
Necklace - Marc Jacobs

Outfit of the day at a castle

As I promised last Sunday on my weekly photos post, I went to a castle (although it was closed) and I got some pictures from the outside. I didn't just want to randomly post photos of a castle, so I kind of wanted it to be an outfit post. The thing is, my sister was taking the photos and she doesn't really know what an outfit post looks like, so here's what I got:



Tank top - Zara
Top - H&M
Shorts - Forever 21
Sandals - Forever 21
Bag - Lefties
Sunglasses - Topshop

Weekly photos #18

I'm not at home, again. It seems like I'm going everywhere this summer, even though I'm still in the country. So I don't have many pictures to show you because I've been packing, coming here, and also (I have to admit) I've been a little lazy lately.

Anyway, here are some pictures from my trip:

1 & 3. These are actually from the same outfit. I didn't want to wear the hat on the train but I might go to the beach (so I wanted to take it) and it wouldn't fit in the suitcase. I'm also in love with those 3 bracelets; the cross one is from ASOS and the other two from H&M.
2. I took a train to come to my current location and that's the train station we have in Madrid. Actually there's two of them, but that's the most popular one (and prettier one).
4. This is just the view from the train. Middle-south Spain in the summer time: very self explanatory.

Hopefully I'm going to visit some castles and places over here this week and I can show you that next Sunday, or I might do a whole different post if I find it interesting enough.

Have a nice Sunday!

June 2012 Favorites!

I haven't tried out many products this month because I had exams and all of that, but I did get one thing that I wanted for a long time and finally decided to get. I love it so much and that's why I'm featuring it here: it is the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette.


You probably have seen this before so I don't want to get into details, but it is a great neutral palette and you can create a lot of different looks with it; it's definitely worth the money.

Then I have 3 lip products because you all know I love lip products:


The first one is my MAC lipstick in Chatterbox and it looks darker in that picture but I have a post ready for you guys to see soon (while I'm gone) in which I have better pictures and swatches. The second one is my EOS lip balm in Lemon Drop and it's great for summer because it also has SPF 15. The third one is Maybelline's Super Stay 10h tint gloss and I don't know the color name but it's kind of a dark pink color; I'm not sure if it stays for 10 hours, but it does stay on for a long time.

My favorite nail polish of the month has been "Flip Flop Fantasy" by China Glaze which is a really pretty neon color.


And last but not least I have 2 bracelets that I've been wearing a lot. The spiked one is from ASOS and the other one is from H&M.

Outfit of the day - H&M love

I have a ton of things that I want to show you this week; hopefully I'll be able to upload them all, but if I don't have time, they'll be up by next week: I have 3 reviews (2 make up and 1 perfume), a haul, a tutorial, and probably an update on my hair. Ok, I just realized I don't have time for all of them this week.

But today I'm doing a quick and fun outfit of the day :) Again, I wore this to class to take a final. As you can see, I'm still wearing full length jeans even though I said I was going to wear shorts. You'll be seeing some shorts on my next one, I promise.


Top - H&M
Jeggings - Stradivarius
Flats - Stradivarius


Watch - Swatch (like 4 years ago lol)
Peach/orange bracelet - H&M
Pyramid (ish) bangle - H&M

I realized a lot of things were from H&M and I go there every week now. I know, I'm crazy. That's the reason behind the title of the post :)

Outfit of the day :)

I don't have much time to post creative stuff but I still want to post, so I thought an outfit of the day would be fun. It's simple to make and at the same time I think it's really fun and interesting because it allows you guys to see my style and how to create different outfits with different pieces (cause you may have similar stuff to what I do).

I wore this on tuesday (so yesterday) to one of my finals. It's pretty warm now but I felt like shorts would have been a little inappropriate even though everyone wears them. I was pretty much sweating while the exam was going on, so I'm definitely going to wear shorts or a skirt to my next one haha



Top - Zara
Jeans - Forever 21
Sandals - H&M
Necklace - Marc by Marc Jacobs
White bracelet - H&M
Bag - Misako (store here in Spain)

Spring flats!

I love to wear flats in spring and I thought I'd share with all of you some of my favorite pairs. Two of them I got recently and the other one is a bit older but I love those flats to death, so I decided to show them anyway.

This first pair I got the other day at a store called Blanco (in which I pretty much only buy accessories). I wanted to try a pair like this for a long time and since these were around 15€ I decided to get them. In real life the color is a little bit more green, but I couldn't get that on camera.



This second pair are from Stradivarius and I think I showed them before (even though I don't remember if I showed it on here or on one of my videos) and I'm really in love with them. I love the bows because I think they're really cute and I love the fact that they're gold and a hard material instead of fabric.

Seriously, I'm in love <3

This third pair is just a simple design from H&M but I like how they're sort of velvet feeling and you can wear them with either a casual outfit or a dressier one. I have like 4 or 5 pairs of black flats because I think they go with everything and I love to wear them when I go out at night and I want to take my heels off.


And last but not least, this is a pair of flats that I wear all the time. I think they're my most worn flats because they're the most comfortable (I think they're a little bit wider than the rest). I got them last summer from Forever 21, so look there because they sometimes restock things from past seasons and all that.

Sorry, they're a bit dirty

Weekly photos #5

This week has been a busy week to me. I've been doing a lot of college related stuff and I didn't even have time to post on here. I have classes till the end of the month and then I have finals in June, so we're kind of doing a lot of projects and papers now and stressing a little bit about everything.

Anyway, here are some pictures of my week, which was pretty boring.

1. I love The Wizard of Oz and I got the 2 dvd edition for my birthday last week. I know it's a really old movie, but I really like it and enjoy it as if it were new.
2. I used my matte top coat from Rimmel London for the second time ever. I really like the effect, I don't know why I don't use it often. 
3. My cat likes to be creepy from time to time and she kind of hides and then watches you and stares at you for a while. 
4. I went to Ikea and when I saw mirrors I couldn't resist and I took a full body picture as a (kind of) outfit of the day.
5. I don't go often to Ikea so I'm always amused by the amount of boxes they have, it's crazy!
6. Some guys were performing and break-dancing on a square close to my house the other day. They always have stuff going on there for people to see. I think this was like travel promotion for Lyon, a city in France.
7. This shows how bored I get in the subway. Not just the fact that I decided to take a picture of my face with the front camera of my iphone, but my facial expression. It says it all.
8. I went out with my friends yesterday night and those are the bracelets I wore, and my watch which I've had for ages.

Also, the weather suddenly changed and it's pretty warm out now, so hopefully I'll be able to show you some spring/summer outfits soon :)

Outfit of the day (from last week-ish)

I totally forgot about this. Last week, while I was out of town for a few days, I decided to take these pictures one day to show you what I was wearing. If you've seen my weekly photos from last week, you can see this is the outfit I wore to the movies to watch The Hunger Games for the second time.

You can probably see that my sister's not the best at taking outfit pictures and these look kind of weird (I think she took them from higher than she's supposed to, or something) but you can still see the outfit, so it's ok.


Awkward pose

More awkward posing
My make up was very simple and natural looking since I was going to the movies with my family. 



Top - H&M
Jeggings - Stradivarius
Shoes - H&M

Weekly photos #4 + Birthday update!

I'm proud of myself for actually posting this on Sunday even though I have a ton of papers to do and all of that fun college stuff. I know it can also count as procrastinating, but I like to think that I'm doing it so you guys get it on the day that you're supposed to see it :)

1. Those are my favorite wedges from H&M, I got them a few months ago but since it's still pretty cold here I'm wearing them a lot lately. 
2. I love Zac Efron. He's my favorite actor and he's so gorgeous. I even got to meet him some weeks ago while he was promoting The Lorax and yeah, he's amazing. I had to take that picture even though people were staring at me. Doesn't everyone take pictures with movie posters? haha
3. If people were staring while I was taking my pic with cardboard Zac imagine what the situation was like while I was taking this one. My sister took the picture and even she was embarrassed...oh well. I think I'm too obsessed with The Hunger Games. 
4. My sister and I love pizza, so every time we don't know what to have for dinner we order some. 


5. I think I take too many pictures of my cat, but she's so cute :)
6. I was excited when I won over my iPhone on a chess game. I didn't even realized that was check mate when I moved the knight. I thought I had to make 1 or 2 more moves, but hey...I won.
7. That's a picture of me before I went out the other day. You can see my new tripod in the back.
8. Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough is my favorite ice cream of all time. I just can't get enough even though I'm lactose intolerant. Please, don't tell my doctor.

Now, as some of you may know, I turn 20 today...yay. I don't know how I feel about being on my 20's but I guess nothing is going to change. To celebrate it with you guys I'm going to show you a few random pictures I took the other day after filming a hair tutorial (which I'd link at the end of the post) and some pictures of my birthday cakes (we got 2 because my parents and sister can't decide on 1 flavor).









I hope you all had an amazing week :)

New bracelets from H&M

Hey guys! I went to H&M the other day and I got these bracelets that I'm in love with. I think they're perfect for this spring time and also for the summer time. Also, since they were from H&M, they were pretty cheap (although I don't remember the exact price), which is amazing for the quality.

The first one is this rose gold one that has kind of pastel orange links in the middle. I love it because it's bright and it definitively pops up if you're wearing a white top.
 

Then these two came together but I'm going to wear them separately, I think. I think they're great because they're right on the pastel trend and the chain part is gold, which makes it even more pretty. I was going to tell who how I like the mint one more, but looking at them while taking the pictures, I really cannot decide; they're both really cute.

What's in my bag? + YouTube channel

Firts I want to say thank you to the people who encouraged me to make a YouTube channel. It's something that I have been wanting to do for the longest time (even before creating this blog) but I never did. So my first video was a What's in my bag. I don't know if you watch YouTube videos but those ones are really popular in the beauty and fashion community. 

I'm still going to post things here, some are going to be the same as my videos and some will be completely different. But today, since I made that video, I'm gonna do kind of the same thing but in blog mode.

 
My bag is from H&M and it was around 20-30€ I don't remember the exact price.
Then you can pretty much see the rest of things but here are the lipglosses ann lipstick with their names:
- NYX mega shine lipgloss in "Tea Rose"
- NYX girls lipgloss in "Mauve"
- Elf lipgloss in "Baby Lips"
- MAC lipstick in "Creme cup" (which is my favorite MAC lipstick)
- NYX tinted lip spa in "Sake"

Also, my sunglesses are from Topshop, the compact mirror is from Forever 21 and the hand lotion is "Secret Wonderland" from Bath & Body Works.

Here's the video where I explain everything:

Outfit of the day - when is spring going to come?

I'm really tired of bad and cold weather, and I see most of you already wearing bright colors and all these spring trends that I can't wear yet. I'm not going to lie, I'm kind of jealous but I hope the weather changes soon enough.
So today I'm posting this outfit of the day because I really liked it, and even though it's really simple, I find it cute and comfy at the same time.

Top - Forever 21
Tank top - Zara
Leggings - H&M
Boots - Stradivarius


Like I said, it's really simple but I like it. As you can see dark colors are still what I'm wearing these days. I just want the sun to come out and provide some heat to this city so I can wear pastels and all those good things.
Oh, and by the way, I did wear a blazer over it; like I said, it's still cold. 

Are you wearing spring trends yet? Or is your country/city as cold and blah as mine?

Haul: a few new things

First of all, I want to apologize for not posting as much as I used to but I'm pretty busy with college stuff. Anyway, this week I've bought a few things that I want to share with all of you. It's not much but I don't really have time to shop either (which makes me super sad).

The first thing that I've been loving is my new Marc by Marc Jacobs iPhone cover. It has printed colorful glasses and I think it's really cute.


My second favorite thing is my new purse. I got it at H&M a few days ago and it was only 19.95€, which I think is a really good price for this bag, since I find it very cute and useful. I thought I was only going to use it when I go out with my friends or shopping but I'm also using it for college because my netbook laptop fits inside.

While I was at H&M I picked up a few head bands. I know this is kind of random but I've wanted some for a while and when I saw them I new I have to get them. I got two packets of three head bands each, for 5.90€ in total.



And also from H&M I got a scarf. It is light weight so it's great for spring. The pattern has gold chains and some things that remind me of old building's decorations or the thing that covers the space between the ceiling and the wall in my house (I don't know what it's called).



You probably (or not) know already that I love fashion books, so I got a new one. It is The Little Dictionary of Fashion by Christian Dior. It contains explanations of fashion items as well as pretty drawings and pictures.


And lastly I went to Kiko and I picked up three nail polishes that I think are cool for spring and summer.

Numbers: 355, 358, 236

oh, and I have a question for you: do you know where to get the China Glaze Hunger Games collection online with reasonable shipping charges?
