Man Crush Monday: Matthew Daddario

It was about time I dedicated him a post. My Mateo 馃槏
In case you don't know him, Matt is an American actor who plays Alec Lightwood on "Shadowhunters". And besides being the perfect Alec and VERY handsome, he is such a dork 馃槀 His tweets and interviews are the best. You have to check them. This interview he gave to buzzfeed is just the best 馃槀馃槀 And without further ado... Matthew Daddario 馃槈



















I loved this when I watched the video. He says it with such a deep creepy voice 馃槀 (x)





 These two gifs are among my favourites. Look at his eyes (I am totally in love with them) 馃槏 And his smile 馃槏 





** None of the gifs are mine. All of them are from tumblr, and credit goes to their amazing creators. I love you. Thank you. You are the best.

My Karlie Kloss Favourites: parties & events looks

Most of you are reading this through tumblr, but in case you don't, I run a fan blog about model Karlie Kloss over there. Last week I was asked if I would do a post with my favourite outfits she has worn, both on events and street style, and also my favourite hairstyles. And here we are with the first post! I'll try to post different posts between these so the blog isn't all about Karlie.

This outfit is a bit too much and I think she will never wear something like this again, but I love the dress and how gorgeous she looks.

I love the Dior dress she is wearing on the right. The whole look is beautiful, though I am not a big fan of the shoes.

I love Karlie Kloss. And I love Elie Saab. So Karlie wearing Elie 馃槏




I still am in love with that off the shoulder top from Topshop馃槏

These two outfits are more masculine, but so sexy at the same time! The look on the left is one of my favourites she has ever worn.


The Atelier Versace dress, the one on the left, isn't a proper outfit, because she finished the show and went to the event without changing, but it is so pretty and she looks so good that I had to post it here. The one on the right is from Valentino, and also one of my top looks of her.


The look from the Vanity Fair Oscars party is simply amazing. Gorgeous!

Fetus Karlie on the right! haha I don't know why, but I love that look. White socks included.

I would totally wear the look on the right. From head to toe.

These two looks also are on the top of my list. I wish I had money to buy the dress on the right, so gorgeous! It is from Carolina Herrera.


I remember when I first discovered Karlie, seeing the look on the right, and loving it. The jacket is just 馃槏

I fell in love with that skirt when Karlie worn it. I found a similar fabric on a market, and my mum made me a mini skirt.


This dress 馃槏 If I worn it I am sure people would say if I am about to dance sevillanas, but it is so pretty!

So, do you agree with me? Which looks are you favourite? You can let me know here or on tumblr 馃槈
Next week I'll post my favourite street style looks!

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 馃槀

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! 馃榿 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 馃槀 
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 馃槀
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!! 馃槀 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 馃槀

Food
This a bit random, but I am living my childhood again through cookies 馃槀 
The first ones are called "galletas pr铆ncipe", 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? 馃槣 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 馃槀 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 馃槏 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!!! 馃槏馃槏馃槏 "Whatever long as it takes" 馃槏馃槏馃槏 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 馃槏 (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 馃槀
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 馃槏 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... 馃挏 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? 馃槺 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 馃榿

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 馃槀

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 馃槀 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 馃槏 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 馃槏 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 馃槀

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馃槏 They have been my obsession this season 馃檴

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

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 馃檲), 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! 馃槺 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!! 馃槏馃槏馃槏 While reading the books I didn't care that much about them, but with the show 馃槏


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 馃檴


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 馃槀 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!
