WCW: Elsa Hosk

I must say I can't remember when I started liking her. It probably was after a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, but my brain has deleted it.
Today I wanted to do a post about her because when I did my top 5 models post I didn't metion her. And she definitely is one of my favourites.
One of the things I like the most about her is how comfortable she is with her body (and how much she loves being naked haha). You can say, "yeah, I would also be comfortable with a body like hers". But there are a lot of models and celebrities out there with amazing bodies as well, and they don't give me the same feeling Elsa does. Weird? Perhaps xD
And, besides that, she has an amazing face. This past Sunday she was at the Dolce and Gabbana show and man... I always say that she has the face of a fairy, and that she could be the real version of Elsa from "Frozen". She already has the name!
This year I hope Victoria's Secret gives her the Fantasy Bra (aka the bra with the diamonds and jewels and the most important look on the whole show). Candice and Behati aren't probably gonna make it because of their pregnancies, and Lily already wore it last year, so... 




This two last photos are from last year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. So casual! I love them haha

Series to watch: Lucifer

Last night I was watching the first episode of season 2 and when it ended I was like umm... I should recommend this show on the blog! So here I am.

Quoting our beloved wikipedia, who knows almost everything, the series focuses on Lucifer Morningstar, "who is bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell and resigns his throne and abandons his kingdom for the beauty of Los Angeles, where he gets his kicks helping the LAPD punish criminals". Lucifer runs a piano bar in Los Angeles called "Lux", with the assistance of his demonic ally Mazikeen or "Maze". After a minor celebrity whom Luciger once helped achieve fame is murdered ourside his club, Lucifer becomes involved with the LAPD when he takes it upon himselg to assist Detective Chloe Decker in finding the one responsible so that he can "punish them".



This show is kind of similar to "Castle", "The Mentalist"or "Elementary". You have a police detective who gets help from someone who isn't a fellow police (in this case the devil himself) to solve the crimes. On each episode they solve a different crime but, you also have a big main one that is solved at the end of the season and that kind of makes sense with things we see through the season. And we have some drama and funny bits, most of them courtesy of Lucifer. 

But why do I like it that much and recommend it? 
1. If you like the shows I mentioned before, you are probably gonna like this one. Yes, is most of the same (that's what my dad said and why he didn't like it).



2. It has a supernatural touch because of Lucifer's story line. And I personally love that (demons, angels, vampires... Anything the Winchesters can kill, I am in xD). I think it makes it different from other shows with a similar plot.



3. The one that got me totally in: Lucifer himself, aka Tom Ellis (you may know him because he was Gary on "Miranda" and the first Robin Hood on "Once Upon a Time"). He is very handsome and suits fit him as a glove.



But his voice and his accent... HIS VOICE AND HIS ACCENT. Ugh. I've watched the show both in English and Spanish, and it is not the same. It loses one of the big features of Lucifer. He is supposed to be sexy as hell (ha... ha) and to make people confess him their darkest secrets, and Tom's voice and his British accent do that perfectly. The difference is huge, seriously.

4. Season 1 only has 13 episodes, and so far from season 2 we only have one and they are on a two weeks hiatus. Most shows aren't coming until October, so you have something to watch!

Favourite Street Style Looks (August)

2016 seriously needs to chill and start going slower... How can we be on September already? :O At least it is a good month for my fangirl side. Fashion Weeks are about to start, the football is back, and most shows are around the corner!
Anyways, focusing on this post, August was a weird month. I remember checking the websites from where I took the pics and I didn't like most outfits. Then at the end of the month things changed a bit and I was able to pick a lot of looks, but they still weren't perfect. The biggest flaws are on the complements, mostly the shoes. I've discovered that I am very picky when it comes to shoes haha
And I really loved Selena Gomez's outfits in Sydney (I think my mind wants autumn).

Btw, Selena's pics kind of go into the menu on the right and it doesn't look good, I don't like it... And if I resize the pics you can't see a thing. So sorry about that :/

Selena Gomez

I hate the hem of those jeans. They ruin the outfit.

Mollie King
I had to google her because I had no idea who she was and I really liked her outfits xD She is a member of the British girl group "The Saturdays".

Sophie Turner                                                                                       Pixie Lott
Your bag. Why. Why?                                                                                                      

Taylor Swift                                                                              Vanessa Hudgens


Kendall Jenner                                                                             Lottie Moss
I am in love with the boots.                                                                                                 

Miranda Kerr                                                                         Rosie Huntington Whiteley

Mollie King                                                                                   Zoey Deutch

Awful shoes. Both of them.
Elle Fanning
And again with the shoes. The black ones are ok, but I' would like them better if they were closed on the back. And the sandals... Nop.

Pretty Little Liars S7 Midseason Finale | My thoughts (Contains spoilers)

I just finished the PLL midseason finale, and I was going to write this on tumblr, but I said... Let's do a blog post! I have a blog for something, right? xD
This midseason finale has been the same as always. They keep saying something shocking is gonna happen and then meh. Some shocking things actually happened, people might be dead and a big secret was revealed. But I ended up the episode like meh. 
I’ve known that Spencer was the one who got shot since last week because of the promo. You just had to look at the boots the person who was on the floor was wearing. They even gave us a shot were you could see them from head to toe! And I don’t think she is dead. Troian has been directing an episode from 7b, and she was still wearing her bangs. So she’ll recover.

So she’ll recover. 
Toby and his girlfriend... Umm... He’ll probably be alive as well, fans love Spoby too much. But I am not sure about his girlfriend. Also, Noel’s death... LOL. How stupid was that? I laughed so hard when it happened! xD
So, the deaths are gonna end up being deaths from not that important characters. Or not important at all, because Toby’s girlfriend... She was on the background all the time. I don’t even remember her name. We’ll miss Noel because he was cute, but still... They lied to us. Again.
Then the big revelation: Mary is Spencer’s mum! I’ve been seeing that theory on YouTube during the whole season. YouTube suggested it everytime I went to see a promo from the show. So it wasn’t a surprise. But Spencer’s family tree is becoming more complicated than Henry’s from "Once Upon a Time" xD
And the rest... Alison is pregnant. I knew it since they were all in the kitchen and she said she was sick. It wasn’t just because of Paige and Emily. Speaking of Emily... can she be more dumb? Leaving her phone? Ugh. Nicole is alive... Poor Aria. But of course she is alive! She is a freaking vampire! xD (You won’t understand that if you don’t watch "The Originals". You should. It is a great show. And the actress who plays Nicole nails it)
So now, what do we expect from season 7b, which would be the end (finally)? People being alive, couple problems... and Jenna with A.D. But I personally am looking forward to Wren. Because he is back. And I’ve missed Julian Morris on my screen. I’ve always thought that he was hiding something, and having him back for the end of the show, and having in mind that Alison’s husband had a British accent... boom!

#MCM: Antoine Griezmann

I wanted to write a post, but my brain isn't in the mood for that. So, because today is Monday (though here we only have half an hour left) and instagram keeps recommending me accounts about Griezmann, I said: let's do a Man Crush Monday! Easy to write, nice to watch xD

In case you don't know who he is, Antoine Griezmann is a French football player (or soccer player as people would said in the United States) and, besides being an amazing forward, he is cute as f***. The only bad thing about him? The team where he plays. 

The other day he was among the nominees for the EUFA Best Player of Europe with Bale and Cristiano (both play for the same team, Real Madrid), and poor thing, he was so left out! We need to fix that, so Floren (Real Madrid president), you know what to do :P

Now, enough chatting. Enjoy this French cutie!

Look at him. He wants to be part of that handshake so badly!
Cutie.

73 questions | Part 2

Here is part 2 of the "73 questions" tag. I've had to add some questions from Anna Wintour's video because I deleted some that weren't interesting while doing part 1.
Hope you like it! :)


37. What can you say in another language?
This whole blog is in a different language than mine haha. But besides that, I studied three years of French in high school and I still remember some things.

38. What do you love the most about the town where you grew up?
Our traditions. The costumes we wear during carnival, the procession we do the morning of the town's big day, our dances, our typical costumes... I might do a post about it one day. 

39. What is one goal you are determined to achieve in your life time?
This is gonna sound boring, but be happy and have a family. 

40. What is your favourite scent candle?
I don't have one, I've never been into candles. And lately everytime there is a strong scent or one that lasts a lot, I end up with a horrible headache (same as my mom), so I wouldn't be able to have one.

41. If you could master a sport, what would it be?
Thanks to the Olympics I remembered how much I liked rhythmic gymnastics and how badly I wanted to be able to do that when I was a kid. One of my classmates went to a proper gym, and I envied her so much!

42. What song always makes you wanna dance?
"Shake it off" by Taylor Swift.

43. What's the best fashion tip you've ever received?
It is a post I saw a couple of days ago on tumblr, not a tip someone gave me, but it works the same way.



44. When you were 13, who was your celebrity crush?
I am not sure... Probably a Real Madrid player. Or David Bisbal. He is a singer from a programme similar to "American Idol", and I think he has a lot of fans on Latin America right now.

45. What's the last show you bing-watched?
"Stranger things".

46. Name one thing you can't live without.
The internet. I mean, I can live without it for more than a couple of days, but to have other entertainments, like music, books, movies, etc, I need it.

47. What's the most nervous you've ever been?
Before doing the exams to get into university, or the first day of university.

48. What's one expression/word you say too much?
In English I think I use "like" a lot. And in Spanish... buff. Pum/pun/chun when I am explaining something and I can't remember a word. It is a bit hard to explain xD 

49. Favourite app.
Tumblr, though it is a bit shit, and TVShow Time. It is the best app to keep track of all my shows. And I can share opinions with other users!

50. How do you feel about Pokemon Go?
I've always been more into Digimon, but I wouldn't mind trying it. The thing is my phone only works where there is wi-fi.

51. You can only eat one thing forever. What is it?
Oh man... I've been thinking about this for five minutes, and I can't choose. I just love food too much to pick one single thing haha

52. Who do you want to play you in the movie of your life?
Natalie Dormer. I know she is older than me and that we don't look alike, but she is my favourite actress.

53. If you could spend three months anywhere, where would it be?
Canada or Cape Town.

54. What's an album people would be surprised you own?
I have an AC/DC greatest hits album. Some people still get surprised when a girl listens something different to pop music.

55. What's the first thing you do each morning?
Putting on my glasses.

56. What's the last thing you do before you go to bed?
Take off my glasses.

57. What's your favourite dessert?
There is this yogurt that I've always called "dalky" (I think that's how a brand named it) that has cream on top and then chocolate, and it is amazing.

58. Who's your favourite artist of all time?
Vincent Van Gogh.

59. What's your favourite painting of all time?
"The Scream" by Münch.

60. Describe your ideal man in three words.
Funny, tall and mature.

61. What's the best first date idea?
Just going for a walk or maybe to a football/handball/basketball game. 

62. What's one thing in your closet you recently brought back into your wardrobe?
My black converse. I live in them the whole year, but this summer I've been able to put them away and wear other shoes. I've brought them back because I've done some trips and they are the best for walking.

63. Who is your fashion icon?
It changes a lot. But when I need inspiration I always go back to Alexa Chung.

64. What's the last book you read?
I finished "The Infernal Devices" by Cassandra Clare (it is a trilogy from the "Shadowhunters" world) last month. I've planned to do a review, but I need my muse to come first.

65. What's the best activity to do at home on a rainy day?
Watch a movie, a tv show or a sports game lying on the sofa. And it gets better if you have something to eat.

66. What's your favourite type of flower?
Google says that the name in English is calla lily.


67. Favourite musical?
Does "High School Musical" count? xD I really like the second movie, all Sharpay's songs are amazing!

68. Biggest phobia?
Heights. Anything taller than a first floor scares the hell out of me.

69. What would you never wear?
With fashion you can never say never, but right now culottes are everywhere and I would never wear them.

70. What are you reading right now?
"Lady Midnight" by Cassadra Clare (it also is from the "Shadowhunters" world). I started it at the begining of the month, but haven't read anything since then.

The internet.

72. What's your favourite piece of clothing to wear?
T-shirts.

73. If you were a superheroe, what would be your chryptonite?

My top 5 models

I've done a couple of posts already talking about my top 5, and it was time I did one about my favourite models. Most of you are reading this through tumblr, so who is gonna be number 1 isn't gonna be a surprise haha. To make it a bit different, I've add two male models. Now, without further ado (I don't know why but I love this expression), let's start with this top 5!


5. Benjamin Eidem
I found about him thanks to a Express campaign where he was featured with Karlie Kloss among other models. One of my followers on tumblr told me his name, I checked his tag... And I fell in love. Right now he isn't working that much, though I saw him this summer on H&M. And I almost had a heart attack xD








4. Freja Beha
Freja was the first model I liked. Everything started with her. I remember seeing her on the magazines and instantly marking those pages to cut the pics later and save them. Do you remember the wall on my room I showed you on my last post? She is everywhere.
She did a campaign for "Valentina", Valentino's perfume, and the ad was all the time on tv. Everytime I saw that I instantly shouted Valentinaaaaa!!, and more than once I scared the hell out of the people around me haha But when you are a fangirl you sometimes do this kind of things :P







3. Jon Kortajarena
Before knowing about Benjamin, Jon was the only male model I liked. Apart from having the best cheek bones out there and being gorgeous, I think he is really funny and down to earth. His laugh is a bit weird, but when I heard it I end up laughing with him so xD
Fun fact: when I read "Twilight", way before they did the movie, he was my Edward Cullen. Everytime they described him, I saw Jon.







2. Josephine Skriver
I found about Josephine thanks to tumblr. I remember seeing a pic of her and being like "damn, she is gorgeous as hell!"Though I didn't start following her career properly until a couple of years ago (maybe three. I'm the worst remembering these things).
Besides having a beautiful face, Josephine is one of the loveliest girls out there. You need to check her instagram and twitter. These past days Victoria's Secret has been filming their Holiday's Commercial, and she was over the moon. She was so excited because she got to wear wings!
This year they (finally) made her an angel. She is perfect for the brand, beautiful and with an amazing body. Have you seen her butt? It is goals. I have a pic of her butt among my likes on instagram, and everytime I want motivation to work out, I check that pic. Weird? Probably.


This the pic I have on instagram. Isn't that butt amazing?



And this is the first pic of her I ever saw.


1. Karlie Kloss
Surprise! xD
Though the first time I saw Karlie was on tumblr, our story started thanks to Cara Delevingne. I was (and am) Cara's fan, and watching some of her videos I saw interviews with Karlie and realize she was the girl from tumblr! Then, as I always do, I started checking her editorials, her campaigns, her amazing walk, some interviews... and Karlie become my favourite model! So yeah, you could say I am a B.T. S Karlie fan. Before Taylor Swift xD
And that takes us to the big question... Do I believe on Kaylor? No, I don't. For me, Karlie and Taylor are just good friends. If people wants to believe they are a couple, they are free to do it. But please, PLEASE, be respectful. Remember that they are real people and not characters from your favourite book or tv show.







This is the first pic of Karlie I saw. So cute!
