Recent Kristen Stewart Looks!

Hi guys!

So, the final installment of the Twilight series came out this month! Did everyone go see it? What did you think of it? I personally loved it and the crazy twist at the end! I'm not going to give anything away but I promise it was such a good last movie :)

As you guys might know, Kristen Stewart is probably one of my favorite actresses at the moment so I have been watching what she's been wearing at the Breaking Dawn part 2 premieres all over the world and I have, for the most part been loving her outfits!

I wanted to put together some pictures of some of my favorite looks that she has been wearing recently and I hope you guys will enjoy :)


This is a great outfit! Looks so effortless!




I really love this look, especially those shoes!

Halloween!

Hi everyone!

I wanted to share with you guys my Halloween costume that I wore to a little Halloween party this past weekend.

It was very last minute so I didn't really have time to go out and get an actual costume. Things didn't go as planned but oh well haha!

So, I wanted to be a "Masked Vampire". I went ahead and bought some vampire teeth and a mask and decided to wear a black dress, fishnets and boots.

The problem was that my Vampire teeth did not want to cooperate with me :( I had to go to the party without the fangs because they wouldn't stick to my teeth! They were supposed to be like dentures and stick to your teeth but I guess I bought some old ones. 

So, this is what I ended up wearing: (would have been so much cooler if I had my fangs!)

Masked Vampire with no teeth :/ haha
I was supposed to look scary but that didn't happen! No Vampire teeth :(
I hope you guys enjoyed this post and my lame Halloween costume! haha I will hopefully do better next year! :) 

Don't forget to ENTER MY GIVEAWAY! Ends in 13 days! 

Let me know what you're dressing up as for Halloween (if you are)! 

Have an awesome day/night everyone :))

xoxo, Adela

My Hair Color!

Hi guys!

So I just colored my hair today because it was starting to look a little flat and just blah. It definitely needed a boost! So I though, why not share with you guys the color I have been using these past times I've colored my hair. 

Now, I usually color my hair about every 3 months. I like my hair quite dark but not black. My natural hair color is a dark blonde (I think haha!) I have been coloring my hair since I was 15. 


Ok, so since I usually do my own hair I wanted to use something really simple and easy to apply. That is why I chose Garnier Nutrisse Nourishing Color Foam in the color Iced Mahogany Dark Brown 4IM
 


I really like this color. It turns a little too dark on my hair but that is because it is already dark to begin with when I color it so adding more dark to it just darkens it. But that is ok because it starts fading into a nice dark brown color after a couple of washes :)

So this color is Permanent and it has triple fruit oils - avocado, olive & shea. This leaves my hair really soft and smooth. 

What's Inside:
  • Liquid-to-foam developer
  • Liquid-to-foam colorant
  • Nourishing avocado, olive & shea oil conditioner
  • Easy-to-use foaming pump
  • Instruction sheet
  • Easy-fit, PVC-free gloves
It is super easy to use. You just mix the color with the developer in the bottle that comes with a pump. After that all you need to do is pump out the color in your hands (not directly on the hair) and put it all over your hair :) Leave it for 25 minutes, then go rinse, condition, rinse again and you are done!

It looks a little darker in these pics because I literally just took these but it will lighten up in a couple of washes :)
This is what it looks like when the sun hits it, so you see is not Black :)
 I didn't do anything to my hair in these pictures so sorry of it looks a hot mess haha!! I just put some Mousse in it.

FINAL THOUGHTS

I actually really like this brand and the foam version is super easy to use for someone who is doing their own hair. It might not be for everyone but I love it!

Let me know if you color your hair and if you do it yourself, what brand do you use?

Thank you so much for reading and please don't forget to enter my GIVEAWAY to win a Forever 21 Cross Body Bag and a Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain :) 

Have an awesome day everyone!
