HI AUTUMN!

Credits to the owner in tumblr

It's been a couple of weeks since I last posted but I have been really busy with uni. By the way, that is what I hate the most about going back to class. You also go back to not having a lot of time for yourself and your hobbies. But that is not what I wanted to talk about.

Fall is definitely my favorite season of the year. Not only because my birthday is the 14th of October but I think it is the most beautiful time of the year and I love the weather during these months. Here in Madrid we do not get very cold falls. Besides, I completely adore the autumnal colors and everything that comes with it! As well as the fall make-up colors which are definitely my favorite. A berry lip is a must for me during this time of the year.

Living in Spain we do not get lots of rainy days but I do love when they come. During those days I love to light a candle, grab a cozy blanket, my favorite tea and the TV show that I am obsessed with at that time.

Regard music, I love to be doing things around my house and have music playing. So at fall what I enjoy the most is listening to this relaxed, slow and peaceful music. I have to say that most of the music I listen to is exactly as I described but it is true that during summer time I tend to enjoy more lively music because I am in the mood to go partying and things like that...

So what I do enjoy now is music such as Ed Sheeran (a must for me all year round), Ella Henderson and last but not least I am enjoying a lot Shawn Mendes music.

But right now there is a song which I am obsessed with and it is: 'We don't have to take our clothes off' by Ella Eyre.

I hope you enjoyed this random post and I will be around here more often or at least I will try.

VOGUE: like a painting

FASHION

Last Saturday I attended to an exhibition at the Thyssen Museum in Madrid. I got a double invitation so my friend Ana and me went together.

This exhibition brings together sixty fashion photographs inspired by painting. This photos were taken by great fashion photographers of the past thirty years. They were taken by leading names in photography such as Irving Penn, Annie Leibovitz, Tim Walker, Erwin Olaf or Mario Testino.

These images bring to mind famous paintings from fenomenal painters such as Zurbarán, Gauguin, Dalí... Although there are some photographs which meaning is much more subjective.

If you live in Madrid I totally recommend you to go and give it a go. You can also visit the permanent collection at the Thyssen Museum which is also brilliant.

As it was an exhibition of photographs they let me take some pics for you to see. I loved this exhibition and I hope you do as well.

Beautiful Karlie Kloss

The exhibition is only available until the 12th of October so go before it ends.

Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed this post and I will see you very soon!

DUBLIN

HOME

Hi there! I am back in Spain and Back into university!

But I still have to share with you guys many things from Ireland. Today I thought that I would talk about the capital, Dublin.

Dublin is a very big city where you can do plenty of things. It is full of life and beautiful places to visit. While I was in Ireland I spent one night in Dublin and then I went again just for the day.

I visited plenty of things included the Guinness Storehouse. And I decided that the best way to tell you all about Dublin is sharing the pictures that I took while being there. So I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! I just visited some places such as the Trinity College, the St. Stephen Green Park, the streets of Dublin and the Temple Bar area.

SMASHBOX: Try it Kit BESTSELLERS

HOME

Hi there! A couple of weeks ago I bought this kit by Smashbox which contains small sizes of their bestsellers products and today I thought I would do a little review of these for products.

This kit contains for of their most popular products such as the Photo OP Eye Shadow Trio in Filter, the Full Exposure Mascara, the Photo Finish Foundation Primer or the 24 Photo Finish Shadow Primer.

First I will start with the two primers which are the two products that I was looking forward to try. I have to say that they are quite good. The Photo Finish Foundation Primer is quite good. It does its job but I have noticed that it wouldn't make your make up last for an entire day. But to be honest the first 10 hours your make-up would look flawless. Moreover, in this kit you find the 24 Hour Photo Finish Shadow Primer which is a shadow primer that locks on more vibrant color for a full 24 hours with no fading, creasing or smudging (as the box says) and I can say that this is completely true, it sets your eyeshadows incredibly good and it is a great great primer. I think that this is their newest shadow primer too. I am in love with this product.

Finally the kit also includes two make-up items: the Photo OP Eye Shadow Trio in Filter which are 3 perfectly coordinated shades ( a base shade, a contour color and a highlighter) of Smashbox's velvety-smooth, hi-res shadows. They are quite good and perfect for a weekend trip if you want to take them with you. The last product is the Full Exposure Mascara which exposes your longest, fullest lashes. It is great. Normally I don't like that type of brush but this one works perfectly for me.

To conclude I have to say that I am very happy with the Smashbox Products. It's a pity that we don't have it in Spain because I would definitely buy the more often. So If you haven't tried Smashbox and you are like me and you didn't want to spend a lot of money on a brand that you didn't know that much go and buy this kit. It is perfect to get to know the products and get an idea of the brand.

Thanks for reading, and I will see you very very soon!

CONNEMARA, County of Galway

HOME

Hello there!

Last weekend, I went to do a tour around the area of Connemara. It is a district in the west of Ireland surrounded by many lakes such as Lake Corrib which is one of the largest in the Republic of Ireland. I joined three friends and we went on a day trip around that area so what I am going to do is just share with you some of the pics that I took.

Kylemore Abbey

The following pictures belong to a beach which conects Omey Island to Ireland and you can drive through it when the tide is low, but be careful if you want to come back to the main land on time.

I hope you liked the pics. Thanks for reading and you can follow me on Twitter and Instagram.

See you soon!!!

FAVORITE MUSIC: SUMMER '15

HOME

Hello there!

Today I bring you my favorite tunes from this summer! I've been loving a lot of music this past few weeks but I am just going to share with you my favorite ones.

THE WEEKND :I can not explain how much I love his music and his voice and everything but my favorite songs from him are 'Can't feel my face' and definitely 'The Hills'.

DRAG ME DOWN- ONE DIRECTION: I was afraid of how would be their first single without Zayn but to be honest I think that their sound is quite better now and the type of music and everything. I even bought it on Itunes. I usually listen to in over spotify but I loved it so much that I had to buy it. I can not stop listening to it. I think is bloody amazing.

GOOD FOR YOU- SELENA GOMEZ: When I first listened to this song I didn't realized it was Selena Gomez, it is a type of music that I had never heard her sing before but I love it. It is such a great song and I've been listening to it on repeat.

NOT LETTING GO- TINIE TEMPAH FT JESS GLYNNE: I am not able to describe with word show much I love this song. Each time that I listen to it I just want to dance and I forget about everything going on.

LITTLE MIX: What I love the most about these fore girls is their friendship. I adore how they support each other and they are totally friendship goals. I have been listening to their new single 'Black magic' on repeat but last week I saw a cover that they did in the BBC Radio 1 youtube channel I think that it is awesome.

I hope you enjoyed this post and I will see you very very soon! Follow me on Twitter and Instagram

CONG AND ASHMORE CASTLE

HOME

On Monday I went to a little town called Cong. It is a very charming village located in County Mayo and it is known for its underground streams that connect Lough Corrib with Lough Mask to the north. It was also the home for the father of the incredible well known writer Oscar Wilde.

Moreover it is the home of the Ashford castle which originally was a Victorian faux lakeside castle built by the Guinness family, but now it is just a luxury hotel. Its surroundings are incredible too. There is a forest where you can do some routes and walk for an hour or so. I did one of the routes and I was completely on my own. There weren't any other tourists and It felt great as I could enjoy the beauty of the forest and the nature with no one around. Furthermore, this castle and its surroundings were used to film the movie 'The Quiet Man'.

I had a great time there and I totally recommend it. Since I've been here in Ireland this is what I have enjoyed the most! Unfortunately I forgot my camera at home and I had to take the pictures with my phone but I will probably be going back very soon.

After being around the castle and the gardens I went back to Cong and I had a great Chai Latte and a brownie in the 'Puddleducks Cafe'.

I truly think that this is a great place to go just for a walk and it is a very healthy and inexpensive way to spend a day out if you are here in Ireland.

I hope you liked it and I will see you very soon.
