Current favourites

I should have written this post earlier this week, but winter is back and I am feeling under the weather. Big time. Ugh. But today I was finally able to put some music, clean my room, and now do this. So let's get into it before my muse leaves me again!


At the end of February, while watching some youtubers' favourites videos, I realized that I had some things that could be interesting to share. They are a bit random to be honest 😂

Clothes
This autumn/winter/first days of spring I've been living on this outfit. I change the shoes from uggs, to Dr. Martens or converse depending on the weather and where I am going, but the rest is the same.
I got the sweatshirt last summer when I went to Primark for the first time ever (we don't have it where I live). I bought it just because at that time the girls from The Lineup were wearing some pieces with nasa logos, and I liked that trend (I've seen it a lot on instagram lately). It is a bit big for me, but so warm! I never thought that such an impulsive purchase would end up being this good haha
The jeans were a "gift". My cousin bought them for her, but she/they made a mistake with the sizes, and she gave them to me. They are from the brand Just Female (never heard of it until now. Probably because it is a bit expensive), and they are amazing! They are blue denim, but very dark (sometimes it looks black), and so soft and warm even though they aren't that thick! They also are very high waisted, which is the thing I like the most about them. I can wear them without a belt (something I can't normally do with jeans), and when you tuck your shirt onto them, it doesn't go anyway when you sit and then get up. That has saved my life everytime I've wore them to go watch my town's football team. No cold on my back! 😁 Bad thing about them: no pockets on the front, just tiny ones. And I need pockets!

Tv shows
I said to myself that this season I wasn't going to start new shows, remember? Not happening 😂 
The new show I recently started is Riverdale. I read about it once on Just Jared and I was like meh... But then a friend started watching it, and she was loving it. Same as the cousin I mentioned earlier. She says it is the perfect mix of drama and mistery. So I gave it a try, and it has become on one of my favourite shows right now, because I barely pay attention to my phone while watching it 😂
So far, I think my favourite character is Veronica. Because we share name? Probably. But she also gives some some Blair Waldford vibes I've missed a lot. The rest... they are ok. But Archie and Betty look like Stefan Salvatore and Sharpay Evans little siblings. Especially him!

Music
Regarding music, there isn't anything new. I keep listening to the same djs while I wait for 30 Seconds to Mars to release new music. My current favourite songs are from Calvin Harris and Martin Garrix. Oh surprise!! 😂 Calvin's new song, "Slide", puts me on such a good mood! And "Scared to be lonely" isn't doesn't make me scream while singing like "In the name of love", but I still love it.
Besides those songs, I've also been loving MTV Dance, the tv channel. I watch it through satellite signal (I believe it is French), and I put it while doing other things, like washing the dishes. So far, no casualties while dancing and cleaning 😂

Food
This a bit random, but I am living my childhood again through cookies 😂 
The first ones are called "galletas príncipe", and they have chocolate. I've been eating them since I was a kid, and they are sooooo good! Everytime I want to eat something and don't know why, I eat one of those. The others are called "dinosaurus". I've also been eating them since I was a kid, and they are what I eat most days during this meal we have in Spain called "merienda" (between lunch and dinner). There is one, that has like little dots, and I've always found it tastier than the rest when they are all made of the same. I am weird, ok? 😜 And a little tip: if you eat them, have something to dring close to you.
I don't know if you can buy them outside Spain, but if you can't, you are missing amazingly good cookies. 

Fitness
And last but not least, something to burn those cookies haha: yoga. I never thought I would be into it, but I tried it because my back and neck hurted a lot (I still don't know how to do crunches), and it has been amazing. I've been doing these beginners videos for a month now, and I've noticed such a big difference! My back doesn't hurt as much as before, especially the day before I do my work outs, and I feel more flexible! 
I try to do this routine everyday, and the days I also do pilates, once I've finished. It is the best way to stretch and calm your muscles. At first I got bored while doing it, because I am too used to my pilates videos where you don't stop moving and there is music playing, but once I saw the results, I learnt to like it.
This video is just part 1. Here you can check 2 and 3. 

 

The Vampire Diaries Series Finale "I was feeling epic" (w/ spoilers)

The Vampire Diaries is over. This weekend the last episode of the show was broadcasted. And it feels weird. TVD was one of the first tv shows I watched in English with subtitles besides Gossip Girl and Supernatural, it was special. I remember when a friend recommended it to me. I watched the first episodes and I was like: damn, this is like Twilight! But I was so wrong!

This last season was a bit meh. Like most seasons since the originals left, except from the one were we had Kai. But once the end was closer, things got more interesting. They made me think of different theories about how things could end, and having old characters made it all even more special.

I've read people who are really mad at what happened on that last episode, but I liked it. It might have been because I wasn't expecting that much, or because I've never liked Delena nor Stelena. But I liked it.

I think they ended all the plot about the bell too quickly. But they only had 40 minutes to finish everything, so I get it. When I saw the fire, the only thing I could think about was Game of Thrones 😂 I wish we had had a Bonnie to stop Cersei. Speaking of Bonnie, she has probably been, besides Matt, the character I've disliked the most. I've always found her so annoying! But since she started dating Enzo, I started liking her a bit, and felt bad for her. She suffered a lot, always saving everybody else, and she deserved to be happy. The scene stopping the fire, with Enzo and all the Bennett witches next her, was amazing.

I feel like Alaric didn't get a happy ending. Yes, he was able to open the school (X-Men anyone? haha), and see his daughters grow up, but still... Like Bonnie, he suffered a lot during all the seasons he was on the show, I would have liked something else for him.

Caroline was a character I liked some seasons, and that annoyed me a lot during others, but this season I liked her a lot. I never liked her with Stefan, they didn't match, but the wedding scene and the message she left him on the phone were 😍 But the best was the letter she got from Klaus. I knew there would be a Klaroline momment on the finale (they were my favourite couple from the whole show), and aaaaaahhh!!! 😍😍😍 "Whatever long as it takes" 😍😍😍 Though I liked that moment, I think it would have been ever better if they had recorded Klaus reading it. Having his voice again on the show 😍 (Can you guess who was my favourite character? haha) I hope Caroline, the girls or Alaric make an appereance on The Originals. Their story and Hope's aren't that different.

Now the important part. The Salvatore brothers and Elena.
I saw all the teasers they published before the episode, and they totally convinced me about Elena waking up because Bonnie's heart stopped. I remember reading that the Elena who says "Damon" was Katherine, but I didn't believe it. And they were totally right 😂
Katherine is one of my favourite characters as well, and I loved seeing her again. But she was clever than that. If she was queen of hell and that Cade working for her, why did she allow Damon to stab her so many times? It always was really hard to catch her out of guard.
When they announced that one important character will die on the season finale, I always thought that would be Stefan. He was the one who struggled the most being a vampire, he was the ripah as Klaus would say. So him dying made sense to me. Though when he found Elena on the halls of the high school (do you believe that he actually told Elena that he listened Caroline's message? I doubt it), they totally made me believe that the one who had died was Damon (also Bonnie), and that both Elena and Stefan were alive. But, as I thought, he had sacrifice himself. What he said about Damon, that he finally saw the old brother he always looked up to 😍 Because yes, the main thing that made you watch the show was the love triangle. But there also was an amazing brotherly love story.
Elena and Damon's reunion was a bit meh. I can understand Delena fans being a bit disappointed even though they end up together.

And then all the remember momments. The raven, Elena writing her diary on the graveyard, Jeremy, aunt Jenna (I was so sad when she died), Elena's parents... 💜 Though I must say that they scared me when they showed Elena meeting her family and she didn't look old. I was like, wait, did she died young? Did something happened? 😱 But at the end it was just that they didn't have money to age them, because Damon looked the same haha That last scene, with Stefan opening the door, the paralel with season 1... perfect.

So thank you for all these years TVD. Thank you for the good episodes and the boring ones. For the stupid plots and the great ones. Thank you Nina, Ian, Paul, Candice, Kat... all the cast. And Julie Plec. I've hated you and loved you all at the same time haha The Vampire Diaries will always be part of my fangirl life.

Shadowhunters S2 Winter Finale | My thoughts (w/ spoilers)

This week ended the first part of Shadowhunters season 2, and after watching the winter finale, I felt like I had to share my thoughts somewhere. So here we go 😁

Before this last episode, they left us knowing what Valentine's plan was: to destroy all the downworlders with the Soul Sword, using Clary to activate it because she has angel blood due to Valentine's experiments (thank God the writers didn't change the story about Clary's blood). And also, that Simon was kidnapped. Again 😂

We start the episode, and they decide that the vision the angel gave to Clary and Jace means that he, because of his demon blood, is able to destroy the sword. Ok. I don't believe it 😂 I think reading the books might have spoiled that.

Then Maia... I don't like what they are doing with her. Was she like this on the books? So... annoying? The actress is great, she fits what I had imagined, and the scenes she had with Simon during this season were 😍 But I don't like this angry Maia. Nope.

Isabelle and Raphael... I thought he was leaving to fight Valentine, not to betray Izzy and try to kill Clary. That was a nice ship, tho. Short, but nice. And all the plot with the yin fen, reminding the readers about lovely Jem 😍 That's something I like, little details that only the readers understand and that link to other characters and books. They make you don't hate the writers that much 😂

Alec and Adeltree... that was an odd pair. During this part of the season, I've read some theories from book readers saying that Adeltree was Sebastian, especially since they showed that rune that changes your aperience. There were episodes where I believed it, and others where I didn't, but I think that after that conversation with Alec, it is clear he isn't him. Also, Alec's eyes during that whole scene😍 They have been my obsession this season 🙊

I know this gif isn't from the episode, but look at those eyes. Look at thim😍😍

The next scene, with Simon bleeding out and Clary giving him her blood, totally caught me out of guard. They have changed so many things, that I totally believed that it was actually her, not Jace. When the glamour disappear I was so shocked!! They did it!! They followed the books!!

After this, there are some fighting scenes (Clary's 🙈), and there is a quote from the books! The little details again.

And then, the drama. Jace touches the Soul Sword thinking he will destroy it, but he actually activates it! 😱 This was another thing that surprised me. I knew he wouldn't destroy the sword because he doesn't have demon blood, but I didn't remember that he had angel blood too! So when he activated I was like

Now here is where all the good things happen. Jace and Valentine fight, and while doing that, Valentine confesses that Jace isn't his son! He and Clary aren't siblings! And he doesn't have demon blood! I am sure non-readers' mouths were wide open haha Clary has another vision, and sees a rune that desactivates the sword (this is another thing they have kept from the books, Clary and her visions. Thank you writers). Then... oh, then. That Malec moment!!! That hug!! 😍😍😍 While reading the books I didn't care that much about them, but with the show 😍

After this beautiful scene, we have Simon, who discovers that the sun doesn't burn him anymore! I've been waiting for this momment since he converted. I remember reading it and being so shocked! It was an amazing plot twist, so thank you writers for don't ignoring it. Then we have a Climon momment, with poor Jace looking at them on the background. If he only knew... But the thing is that Clary has more chemistry with Simon than with him 🙊

And, that last scene. THAT LAST SCENE!!!!!! Just a few seconds, just a dark figure, but aaaahhhh!!! It was 1 a.m. when I watched it, and it was so hard not to scream Sebastian 😂 But he is coming. HE IS COMING!! I can't wait to see him. I like the actor they have chosen. I saw him on Game of Thrones, and he can do great. I am very confident! Fingers crossed the writers don't ruin him.

Can't wait till June!

Favourite Street Style Looks | February

Judging by the looks I chose this month, I need spring. Most outfits feature coats or jackets that are what you can wear around here during that time. My favourite coat is Karlie's. Jasmine's look is totally me, though I would wear converse instead of heels. And Victoria's outfit... it is one of those things that only look good on famous people, but I love it. I remember I had very similar trousers when I was in high school 😂 The 2000's are coming back and I am not ready to live that again 😱😱
