The Witching Hour

 

Halloween is coming to town... This year´s going to be quite strange and unusual, but even though, we can´t miss to watch a few creepy movies (I leave you here, once more, my top list) and enjoy some spooky treats, the spirit can´t die!

Hope everyone´s having a good month, coping with everything that is going on. I leave you here a fun shooting I did just for the fun of enjoying the Spooky Season.

Have a Happy and safe Halloween!

B l u e S t r i p e s

Days are getting shorter, cool nights are already here. Perfect timing for light jumpers and sweaters, a first call for the colder seasons. Grey and warm days, that bring us plans as going for a walk, to say farewell to the beach (or lake, depending on your location) season.

If you are not quite ready for the dark and mustard tones that are already waiting for us from behind the corner, use all your light knits and bright summery clothes these days, while you still can.

Linked items in here: similar knit, similar sneakers, denim shorts. The handkerchief is vintage Gap, sorry about that. 

Hope everyone´s having a good week.

Getting ready for the S P O O K Y Season

So finally we enter September. From today on we start my favorite time of year, which soon will lead to Fall and will end up in the Holidays.

As a big fan of the season, I´m leaving you here five cute Fall decorations that you can easily get to start getting in the mood (click on them to purchase).

For now, my choices are just home decor but soon I´ll surprise you with some pumpkin tone clothing items that will perfectly match with your PSL.

After a hot and, let´s be honest, weird (pandemic) Summer we finally get our minds settled down to start all our new projects. Don´t hesitate to leave me your thoughts here or on my Instagram.

I hope you all had a wonderful Summer and I wish you´re already enjoying the new season.

Refreshing summery outfit

So I hope everyone is enjoying Summer. Also, Summer sales! What happens to me when it´s sale time is that I find too many good things and I always need to choose a few of them, otherwise I would be just changing my closet every single season. And what I do is to pick up the goodies from the second or even third sales, I always find what I want and that way it´s not so hard for me to say no because the options are less.

Today I´m sharing a fresh and light outfit that you can check from the links. I share very similar options to these ones, linked here: the shirt is H&M, the skirt is Pull&Bear and sunnies are Alain Afflelou. I also leave you here a link to my eyeshadows palette, from Drunes.

Hope everyone have a good weekend!

P E R F O R M A N C E S

This video is a sum-up of some of my acting experiences and fashion shows that I´ve had over the last years. I´m going to briefly explain the origin of it all.

When I was a kid I went to the theatre and loved the feeling, but most of it I got an idea: I wanted to be them, I wanted to act.
That´s when I joined my local Drama Club, after one year  impatiently waiting (by that time being a 6 years old was too young to join the Club).
I spent 7 years training and performing, doing some plays every June and having lots of fun.

When I was in high school I participated as an extra in my first movie. The film was called "Gordos", from director Daniel Sánchez Arevalo, and the result was a teenager dreaming of becoming an actress (but then fashion got in the way, I´ll explain it in another post).

After that period I started college in Madrid and there I enrolled in a professional Agency of Extras and Actors. There, I did a few spots with brands like Vodafone, Orange, DGT and Energy XL.
One year after moving to Madrid I moved to La Rioja to finish college. In that new place, I participated in several fashion shows and projects due to the degree I was studying.

When I graduated from university in 2016 I moved to London for over a year. I didn´t have any acting experience but I did a fashion show at an H&M store I was working in, in Oxford Circus, and a few photo shootings.

Since I moved back to Spain I´ve participated in just a few more things: an ad for Eitb, a local TV channel from Basque Country, a spot from ECPV, a film school, and next Woody Allen movie, as an extra, called Rifkin´s Festival.

In this video you´ll see some of these experiences. Here (click there) I leave you a link to watch the full spot from ECPV, where I´m wearing big glasses and eating red candy.

I hope you enjoy my video and let me know your thoughts!

Jumbo Muffins

Sometimes you are just craving for some sweets but also thinking of getting something healthy and yummy. For that, I have the perfect idea: Jumbo Muffins, they´re a great homemade treat and also a good snack to end the day after a hot day at the beach, perfect to enjoy while catching up on your last Netflix series. 

I leave you here the recipe and also a link to my homemade American cookies, that I´ve used to top my muffins! For the muffin cup, I´ve used a paper cup cut as you see in the picture. Easy and eco-friendly, both important matters to keep in mind.

For the muffins                                                                             

200g white flour

100g granulated sugar                                              

100ml olive oil 

3 eggs

1/2 baking powder sachet

- - -

For the cookies

Click here for the recipe


Mix all the ingredients together starting with the eggs and meanwhile preheat the oven, and spread a bit of butter inside the paper cups so the muffin doesn´t get glued to the cup. Leave them in the oven for around 20 minutes at 150º. 

I hope you bake them at home and let me know if so. Have a good day!

Gilmore Girls Wishlist

1. Luke´s mug   2. Luke´s T-shirt     3. Coffee tote bag

  4. Trivia Book     5.H&M skirt       6. Gingham thermo

I know the Summer season is coming this weekend but as it´s so rainy where I live (north of Spain has the same weather as Ireland, I swear) I´ve started with Gilmore Girls already. This show is so perfect for any time of the year (especially Fall, I know) and makes you feel so cozy enjoying your coffee.

As it is a show I love I´ve decided to make a wishlist based on it for everyone who enjoys watching it too. Every product reminds me of the series, the mugs, the tartan skirt (that screams "ready for Chilton"), the trivia book... And there´s something more. The tote bag is mine! I design them with quotes and my watercolours.

I have a bunch of them in my Etsy store. This one it´s perfect because of the coffee quote but if you like illustrated or even handmade linen and embroidered tote bags you just have found the perfect place at my store.

I leave you here everything linked and I hope you enjoy the products as I´ve enjoyed finding them for you! I´m totally getting the Trivia Book!

Have a nice day!
