PLL Summer Season Finale Opinions

Hello lovelies, so this post is a little unorthodox for my blog but I felt I had to share with you! I have been watching Pretty Little Liars the day it came out so like a lot of people I have been waiting six long years for this moment. We finally know who A is!! And for those of you who don't watch PLL, please stop reading this blogpost and go get yourself onto netflix until you have caught up!

*SPOILERS*

So us fans have finally found out the identity of A after six long years and there are a lot of mixed reactions on the finale. I wanted to give my opinions of the episode and the whole storyline behind it. It was revealed that Charles was in fact Cece who is the first transgender character on the show, and the episode also dived into a little bit of insest. With a week gone since the reveal of A I thought it was time I shed some light onto the matter!

Opinion of A being A

So a couple of my friends and a lot of people on twitter were very very disappointed with this choice of A. But I really really wasn't. I thought it was so clever how they'd done it and how it was so obvious yet I didn't suspect a thing like that! Everything now fits into place, the dress that Mrs. D was hiding when Alison found it, who killed Toby's mum, the whole Radley thing in general. I think it's a piece of genius and I have searched high and low for many many theories previous to this and I don't think I saw any that were correct. I love how they made you actually feel sorry for A and be able to connect with her. I honestly thought it was brilliant. 

Transgender Character and Insest

So many people took to twitter slating Marlene King and the other writers for making the first transgender character a psycho. Yes Cece had been to Radley and done some very crappy things to the liars but what makes everyone think she is actually ill in the head? Mr D put Charles in there because he tried to 'Kill' Alison, but we saw in the episode that he actually really loved Ali and just wanted to make her feel better. As for her being A and doing all the messed up things she has done, why does that make her mentally ill? I think she just loved the game. Doesn't necessarily mean she is mentally ill. And as for the insest, people are definatly taking that out of proportion. Cece even made a joke about 'how frustrated' Jason was (which made me giggle a lot actually) so obviously nothing happened, it was just the desperation of an abandoned child wanting to be with their family.

Radley & Bethany Young

Well, little innocent Bethany turned out the be a massive bitch didn't she? I'm glad that the girls finally know about who killed Toby's mother and I really hope it doesn't just get forgotten about in the next upcoming episodes as they have obviously skipped five years. I want to see Toby's reaction to it all and see how that plays out. And we finally learn who actually killed Bethany after everyone thinking it was Spencer, then Mellisa, then Ali.. It was endless. Poor Mona killed Bethany by accident thinking it was Ali, which I think brings out a whole new side of Mona if she was willing to do that. I mean we all knew she was a bit twisted but she was little A, little A didn't going around killing everyone.

Unanswered Questions

Although we were promised a summer of answers, they did not disappoint but I do still have some questions I would like to know the answers too! The main one being who actually killed Mrs. D? Because my money was on Charles before but now that obviously isn't the answer. The new characters that have come into this season, will we ever see them again? and are any of them actually suspicious? 

The Sara Thing

I knew she was super dodgy at first but I was finally starting to trust her and BAM. Ruined. Poor Emily, she has the WORST luck with love life. But I do think because we technically found out redcoat was Cece that it is a bit confusing that Cece is A and Sara is Redcoat. 

And the black widow too, i'm glad that was answered and that also made sense! I still don't know how she could do that to Emily. Another question would be if she actually had real feelings for Emily or not? 

The 5 year jump

I am very excited to see how they play this out! And the clip that they did show us, there are a lot of differences. It has been confirmed that Alison is indeed married and hasn't just changed her name. Her surname is in fact the same name as a Doctor at Radley and we have been told she is married to a Doctor but that was all the information given.  

We also find out that someone is after the girls again, or maybe just Ali this time. But this is a 'he' and this 'he' is confirmed to NOT be Charles/Cece. There is no confirmation that he is the new A but he is definitely the new 'Baddie' of the season.

I'm very excited to see what else they pull out of the bag and how they develop their characters further. I just really hope they don't miss anything really important from the last 5 years! 

Sorry for the very long post with getting my opinions out there, if you love PLL just like me, let me know your opinions too! And also if you do like these blog posts I could do so many more of them as I watch A LOT of TV shows. 

My Top 5 TV Shows

Hello lovelies, so a quick post today because I currently have some free time back so I have been catching up on all the TV I have been missing!! 

So these are just my top five at the moment! Because believe me, I could go on for about top 50! And different shows go through phases of being my favourites because they each go through different story lines which keep me hooked. 

1. Pretty Little Liars

My top one at the moment, I know it has just gone on its season break because we just saw the season 5 finale but OMG. If any of you watch it, or know anything about it... I have watched it from the very first episode in 2009 and i have been waiting 5 years to find out who A is, and we finally have the biggest clue and pretty much know who it is after the last episode!! 

If you don't know what it is, please please go and watch it. you won't regret it. 

2. Reign

Reign is one that is a bit of an underdog for me as it's not one I always think of first but I actually love it. It is a relatively new series, only on season 2, but it is actually so good! It's basically a historic setting with Queen Mary of Scotland set in france with all the royals there. Definitely worth a watch! 

3. Arrow

Arrow is something that isn't a 'typical' programme that i would watch but I started watching it with my Boyfriend and we really enjoyed it, but he isn't one for keeping up with stuff so he gave up and I carried on. I've been a bit behind recently but i'm catching up and its been very good at the moment!

4. Friends

Ever since I got the box set for christmas I have been obsessed and I am now halfway through the last series and I don't actually know what happens at the end so don't spoil it! I am so close! But yes, just a classic programme and I love it at the moment.

5. Doctor Who

So I debated putting this in here because when I was younger I used to watch this religiously every Saturday night. I wouldn't go anywhere without a TV during Doctor Who time. But recently as I have grown older I feel I have grown out of it a little bit and for the first Christmas ever last year I didn't watch the Doctor Who Special. However I was scrolling through Netflix the other night for something to watch and I came across Doctor Who.. Now apart from some really awful CGI, I forgot how much I loved the older series, as it is a British tradition really. So recently I am enjoying watching back the old episodes of Doctor Who with Billy Piper and David Tennant. 

Now don't get me wrong, these are only a fraction of the shows I am actually watching at the moment, I am also obsessed with the likes of Vampire Diaries, Revenge, Once Upon A Time, you name it. But these are just the five I am loving the most at the moment. 

Let me know what your favourites are and if you watch any of the ones I am at the moment, I'd love to know!! 

Pretty Little Liars 'Get the Look'

As i've recently been re-watching all of the Pretty Little Liars episodes, i decided to pick some of my favourite outfits and see what i could do.
I found that a lot of the clothes the girls wear aren't really classed as affordable fashion, so i've picked out a few which i think are very reasonable.

Here is Hanna in Season 4, episode 14.

I love Hanna's fashion sense, she is by far my favourite pretty little liar! She has some amazing outfits, but i picked this one as it is easy for everyone to accessorise in their own way and fairly cheap.

I actually found the exact dress here on Amazon, although it is the american Amazon, and its currently on sale! I don't know how long this item will be on Amazon, so have to keep an eye on that one.

As for accessories, you could really do alot with this dress, maybe add a different colour belt other than black - like this. Or just keep it simple :)
I found a similar necklace, it just doesn't have the same length, but would equally give it that pop of colour, here.

The lovely Emily

Emily has quite a sporty fashion sense, which isn't really my thing, but i chose this outfit because it just SO easy to create, and look how amazing it looks!

You can get any denim skater skirt from any of your favourite shops, but i found this one from Oasis. Now the top, you can get any colour you like and the chances are it will go, whatever you are in the mood for. And if you don't already have one in your wardrobe, any of your usual shops should have a basics range and you should look around there, heres one from H&M (they are also very cheap!) Scarf could be anything really, any pattern you fancy. I have a massive thing for Fat Face scarves, so check them out if you'd like. Thing i love about this outfit is that the main items are so easy to source, and you can accessorize with things that bring out your own personality.

Aria Montgomery in the season four finale

Aria's dress sense is sometimes a little wacky, but Lucy Hale manages to look amazing in anything they shove her in. The season finale is when all the drama kicks off, so a pretty intense episode. 

Personally i don't think i could really pull something like this off, but it definitely looks great. The dress which you can see in the picture is covered up a lot of the time in the episode which is a shame, and you can buy that here. The scarf, again is totally something that you can pick to your tastes, but maybe sticking to the blues and maroon tones Aria has in hers. Its not the exact same jacket, but for a good quality one you are looking at a bit more money than one would want to spend, but then again, pairing a leather jacket with any outfit is so easy, so if you don't already have one, i guarantee it will be a good investment. I found a similar version here, but they aren't hard to come by.

Spencer in season 3, episode 3

Now i absolutely love this outfit, and Spencer is sort of like marmite to me, i either love it or hate it. I was actually able to find the exact dress from urban outfitters, but as season 3 was a while ago, unfortunately unless you can find it on ebay or somewhere, its not available. (but if you were wanting to look it is named 'pins and needles strapless lace dress')

 I did however find this one which i think is equally as pretty, just doesn't have all the detail on the corset part of the dress. Now the cardigan is plain and simple, and so i'd advise you to shop around and see what you can find, but i found this one from John Lewis. Now the belt, again i'd hunt around for one you really like, but i really liked this one as the dress is quite plain it adds that extra detail. And remember girls, ebay is your friend! so never forget about it. 

I think in this episode she also paired it with white knee-high socks and just some black pumps, so feel free to experiment with that! 

And thats it for the liars looks. The first of many to come, and i hope this helps find whatever you were looking for.

Much love xoxo
