Meet Aly

Who is Aly?

Here is a small fact list that I thought would be interesting to begin with so that you guys get to know a bit about me starting from the beginning
-This is me:

 My name? Aly. It's not my real name, though. It's a nickname, people on the internet know me as Aly. I'm 15 years old, although not for very much longer since the 29th of this month is my 16th birhtday, and I'm actually very excited. I was born and still live in Spain. Yes, I am spanish. And yes, I speak fluent english. Anyway, back to the random facts











-I wear braces (the glasses are fake, by the way)

They're not painful at all and not that uncomfortable to be honest. But I just don't like how they look on my. I really admire the people who can pull them off and not look stupid. I'm also missing a tooth because they had to take it out as part of the whole braces process (it was a baby tooth, so I guess it will eventually grow out again)










-I LOVE tea (and Starbucks)

I'll usually have at least one mug of tea a day. I also have a really weird OCD where I'll only drink tea in this mug, I have no idea why. Obviously I'm not that stupid that I won't have my tea if it's not clean or  available. But luckily, it always is














-I collect small bags and clutches

I recently started collecting them (and by collecting them I just mean that I really like them and I just keep buying them, not that I don't use them and keep them in a armored glass urn or anything), so I don't have that many. But the fact that they don't fit anywhere anymore is a good sing (I guess)









-I was a very cute and happy child

But then school and whatnot happened and everything went wrong. The cuteness just faded away with time, that doesn't have anything to do with school, to be honest.












-I love reading

Which is ironic because I'm the slowest reader ever. Plust it always takes me ages to get into the story and start enjoying it. I don't know, I'm weird like that. And for some reason, instead of reading the book and then watching the movie like a normal person would do, I watch the movie and (if I liked it) I'll read the book. I hope I'm not the only one









-I'm OBSESSED with heels

Which is also ironic because I'm pretty tall and I've always felt very self-conscious about it even though many people felt jealous for some reason. I just couldn't see the advantages of it because I always looked like I was the mother of my friends (most of them were even older than me). But recently I've just been doing what makes me happy and this is one of those things. I don't care how high the heels are as long as I feel comfortable in them







-Another weird OCD of mine

Whenever I travel I always buy a pencil or a key holder AND I NEVER EVEN USE THEM. But why?? I still don't get why I do it! I have a Hard Rock Coffee cup full of pencils from lots of different places and a box full of key holders that I've never used and never plan on using. The best part is I'm probably going to buy more in the future








-I'm a Nikon girl

Although I'm probably going to get a Canon sometime soon (again, more irony). I just feel like this one is really uncomfortable when it comes to filming my videos (I make youtube videos, by the way. All the information is in my 'Youtube' link at the top of my blog). Most of the beauty gurus I follow use a Canon and I really like how their videos turn out, so I'll have to try one sometime.









-Proud owner of an iPhone 4S

Which I proudly purchased with my own money after ages of saving and having a half dead iPhone 3 which my friend Karina gave me because she didn't need it anymore. It was already super damaged when she gave it to me, so you can imagine how it was after months and months of using it. My new iPhone is like my baby. I cherish it more than my own life because my parents won't let me get another one until I'm like 50.








-I love fashion more than anything

I have no idea where this passion for fashion comes from, but it's just there. I used to design clothes a couple of years ago but I really sucked so I gave up. Recently I tried to try again but I still suck, so nevermind. My dream is to move to a big city and work as a fashion journalist, reporter or photographer. I don't really mind, but I feel like photography and fashion are my thing so, why not combine them?






-I like to think I'm  funny and outgoing 

I don't really know why, because in reality I'm super introverted and shy. I'm trying to work out my confidence issues bit by bit and I think I'm progressing at the moment. At least I manage to sit infront of a camera and talk to you guys. It might not seem that bad for you because I'm not physically talking to anyone. But deep down I know lots of people will watch my videos afterwards and I have to fight the anxiety.








And that's pretty much all that's interesting about me.
Oh, I thought I could also take this chance to talk a bit about what my blog is and stuff.
Well, to begin with I made this blog as a little experiment, because I already have a tumblr, but I don't post anything about fashion there and I thought this might be a good place. I was inspired by Zoella (which you will most likely know if you're into YouTube fashion) and Sprinkle of Glitter.
Here I'll just post makeup and fashion reviews, comments, oppinions, facts, tips and so on.
I'm still not sure, I'll see how it goes.
But anyway, I really hope you enjoy this blog and appreciate the effort I put into every single post:)
