Wardrobe Wednesday/ Obsessions of Mine Thursday

Wardrobe Wednesday

Yesterday's Inspiration: Prom Dress I love
Thoughts???

Obsession: The Selection Series
I have recently been reading The Divergent Series at home as I blogged last week. But I am in Best Sellers at school and for my third book I chose to read The Selection! I am almost finished with it and oh goodness it is incredible, almost a tie with divergent, since its review says it is a combination of divergent and the bachelor!:)

Here are the books in order, only the first two are out right now:)



Have a great weekend,
Maria xoxo

Obsessions of Mine Thursday

What a wonderful short week it has been! 

Today's Obsession is recent and quite major haha: 
DIVERGENT book trilogy and future movies:)

This book is beyond addicting and incredibly written! I can't believe I didn't read it sooner. If you loved the hunger games this is right up your alley! I am on the second book Insurgent right now:)

Here are the covers:

And here is the movie poster and trailer, which makes much more sense once you read the book! :

Obsessions of Mine Thursday!

So today is the last post of the week because of the winter retreat I am going on this weekend starting right after school friday! 

I am feeling much better by the way:)

Today's Obsession: Dance Academy

So I am not sure I have blogged about this before. I love it, and hate that this third season is the last. It airs in Australia before it is put on Netflix. Season one and two are on Netflix and the third season is on youtube:) 


It is fantastic and I am so glad my friend showed it to me sophomore year:)

Here is the season one trailer:)

Also here are some cast pics from all three seasons


Have a wonderful weekend,
