Weekly photos #23

The second week of September is now over and I still don't have to go to class, which is pretty cool. I still have more time to do nothing and be lazy although I'm going to start to get my driver's license (it is a long process here in Spain and also quite expensive compared to other countries). Hopefully I'll be able to get my learners permit in the upcoming weeks and then I'll be able to drive a car with a teacher by my side.

1. I ate this kind of Japanese food (not real Japanese, but close) and it was pretty good! I loved it because you make it in 5 minutes, which is going to be perfect for when I have classes and I don't have much time to have lunch.
2. I love this nail polish from Kiko; I've had it for a while but I never really liked it that much, I don't know what's different now but something is haha
3. I'm obsessed with the Revlon Lip Butters. I made a post about them the other day (check it out HERE) and I'm going to buy a few more because they're amazing. 
4. Just a picture of myself in my house.


5. Editing videos for my YouTube channel takes a lot of time! It's not that much the editing, but the exporting and uploading. It sometimes feels like it's never going to end, but at least I can do other stuff while that goes on.
6. Fun fact: popcorn is one of my favorite things to eat.
7. My schedule for this year was impossible to fit, but I finally did and enrolled into my junior year of college, although I don't have the subjects that I wanted in the first place.
8. Don't you guys love raspberries? I do. So yummy!!

ASOS Jewellery Haul

This post is long over due and I'm really sorry. But I knew I was going to post it eventually, so here it is. I got some money for my birthday (which was may 6th) and I decided to get these things with part of it. I don't remember all of the prices, but the priciest one where the rings and they were only 13€, so yeah...everything here is really inexpensive.

I've seen this bracelet everywhere on here and YouTube and I even had it in my april wishlist, I believe. I finally got it and I'm in love with it. They had it in a bunch of different colors (like pink, black, cream, blue, rose gold) but I decided to get the gold one.

Next I got another gold one. I really am in love with this next one and it's my favorite out of the 3 bracelets that I got. I want to say that I'm catholic, so this is not only a trendy piece; it means a lot more to me. Anyway, it is really pretty and since it's fairly small, looks really cute and classy, in a way.

The last bracelet I got is a little different from the others. It's not as trendy but still, it is really cute. I really like the bow at the end, I feel like it gives a nice touch, something fun and girly at the same time.

Then I got a necklace. I really like short necklaces; it's not that I don't like long ones cause I do, but on a day to day basis I like to wear short ones. I don't know what to say about this one, just that I really like the bow (as you may be able to tell, I really like bows).

And last, but definitely not least, I got these 6 rings. They came together in a pack and I love that you can combine them to make different looks. I only wear 2 together because I feel like 3 would be a lot (even though I might try it sometime, but no more than 3) and I've been getting a lot of compliments on them. I like how you can create a neutral look with the white one, the black one and even the pale pink one, but at the same time you get a few colorful ones.

I made a birthday haul video some weeks ago, I believe, in which I show how all these look on me. If you want to see for comparison or whatever, it is towards the end. So you can skip the rest if you're only interested in these things :)


I hope you liked this post,

Weekly photos #6

Once again, I haven't done much this week. I'm still stresses out (just a little) with college work and I got sick for a couple of days.


1. I got these rings from ASOS and they're my favorite. I'm so in love with them because I can create a ton of different ones out of the 6 that the pack came with. I'll show them in a haul next week along with more ASOS stuff.
2. Spring is finally here and I can wear my flats and all of my cute spring clothes.
3. Aren't these shower gel bottles cute? I saw them the other day and I wanted to buy them haha but I didn't.
4. Remember what I said about being spring, warm and almost summer? Well, it rained yesterday...and a lot. I don't know what's wrong but it's pretty cold again. Hopefully it'll change back in a couple of days because this weather is confusing.

This is going to be all for today. I'm sorry it's not a lot, but I'm not feeling well. I'll be ok in a few days so I'll post real soon.
Thank you all so much :)

Nail of the day - Lemon Fizz

I'm excited to show you this because it's my first time trying a yellow nail polish. I've never thought I'd like yellow nail polish because I think some polishes can be too bright or too in your face. Anyhow, this nail polish that I'm showing you is more on the pastel side and it's pretty light, so I actually really like it.

As you can guess by the little of the post, it is "Lemon Fizz" by China Glaze. I think this is one of the most popular yellow nail polishes and that's why I decided to get it: if so many people liked it, it had to be pretty. And it is:

2 coats, natural light
Like I said, I like how it's more on the light side and it's not too eye catching; although there were a few people who noticed it and commented, but they all said they liked it.
I recommend it to all of you, specially if you're afraid or hesitant to get a yellow nail polish, and hopefully you'll love it too.

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.

Nail of the day - Bright orange

Basically last week the weather was getting warmer around here and I thought I'd start the spring time by wearing a bright nail polish, so I painted my nails with this pretty orange. The bad thing is that the weather is cold again and now I look kind of stupid with bright nails, but oh well.

I'm not the kind of person who paints their nails every single color and this is the first orange nail polish that I own. I've never painted them green (real green, if you know what I mean, I love mint), yellow, brown, black or white either. So it's sort of out of my comfort zone but I actually like it.

2 coats, natural light

This nail polish is Kiko's number 358 and it's one of the three nail polishes I showed you on my last haul.
I like that this color could be considered a neon orange (you have to see it in person) but at the same time has a hint of pastel in it (I think you can see that in the photos).


 Are you going to wear bright nail polishes this spring?

Nail of the day - Minty green

As promised on my last outfit of the day post, here's the nail polish I was wearing that day. It is the number 345 from the brand Kiko. I don't think this brand is available outside of Europe but I might be wrong; and also I don't know if you can get it all over Europe. I know you can find Kiko stores in Italy, UK, Spain, France, Portugal and there might be some other countries, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, I'm loving pastel colors and mint is one of my favorites. I own a few nail polishes that have this kind of tone, but a lot of people (around 8 really) have asked me about this one while I was wearing it.


Another good thing about Kiko is that it's really cheap. Their nail polishes retail for 2.50€ and it took me 2 coats to be completely opaque. I really like them.
