I Graduated!

Hey everyone :)

So two weeks ago I graduated from Social Science in UCC. I'm now doing a masters in college so it wasn't the end for me but it was still a really good day! The weather was gorgeous (for once that week) so the pics came out really nice. It was really nice to see everyone again and we had a great day. We all headed out to the Bowery that night as a class and had a really good night. Thought I'd share a few pics with ye. Dress is from Asos and Shoes are from Tesco. Chat soon.

Autumn Style!

Hey guys!

For today's post I thought I'd go through a few of my go-to outfits for autumn. So far I've just been wearing basics like skinny jeans, leggings and a few cute tracksuits. I also love wearing my converse or vans and some new Chelsea boots I just bought :) I found a few pics from Pinterest and online in general that I thought I'd share with you. These are just simple yet cute everyday outfits that are perfect for the autumn season. Let me know what you think :)

Airport Outfits!

Hey guys! For today's post I thought I'd talk about the outfits I think are perfect for travelling in. So I'm going on holiday number two to Florida on Saturday and I'm so excited! I obviously want something that looks nice but considering I'll be on a plane for 9 hours I think I need to be a bit sensible (boring!) and be a little more practical with my clothing. But being comfortable can also be stylish!

When I went to Turkey I wore a black maxi which was great but really tight at the end so not very good for carrying tonnes of suitcases around (and that's where Kev will come in handy for Florida!). So I've opted out of wearing the maxi but I'm still a little undecided as to what I'll wear. Jeans can be too tight but a dress is too much. I have some serious fashion issues right now! So I've been looking around and here's what I've come up with. 

What do you wear travelling? Do you have a go-to outfit? Let me know! I won't be blogging until I come back but check out my Facebook page here to get updates from when I'm away! Chat soon!

Summer Outfits!

Hey everyone!

For today's post I'm going to go through some of my fav summer outfits. I personally love wearing bright colours during the summer months and try to keep the darker colours for winter.

Maxi Dress
I did a post just on maxi dresses not so long ago so I'm not going to go into too much detail about them here. These have got to be one of my fav outfits for summer. They can be dressy or casual depending on how you want to style them. I personally prefer the plain coloured maxis with a few accessories. I have a black one (yes I know I said I prefer colours for summer but shh!) that I can't wait to style. I just bought a cream studded bag (coming up in my fashion haul post soon) that will look perfect with it. A statement necklace, some stacked bracelets or a watch and a pair of sandals and the look is complete. If I was wearing this in Ireland I'd throw on a cardigan over it if it's a bit cool.

Skater Skirt
Another look I love. I rarely wear skirts but I love wearing them on hols. I love the skater skirt with a plain tank top and again paired with sandals and some statement jewellery. I posted an Outfit of the Night post recently with a skirt and top look that I can't wait to wear again. 

Shorts
These are obviously a must for summer! They can be dressed up or dressed down for a casual look depending on how you style them. For a day time, casual look I usually would wear a casual tee or vest top and a pair of converse or vans. At night they can be paired with sandals, a more dressy top or again some statement jewellery. 

Skinny Jeans
In Ireland we don't get much of a summer but it's not exactly cold enough to be wearing our winter clothes. So what do we wear? I love wearing skinny jeans with either sandals or pumps or even converse for a more casual look and a nice summery top. I love coloured skinny jeans and the bright colours are perfect for summer. If it's a little bit cool, just throw on a cardigan and you're good to go.

Leggings
I love leggings! Plus they're perfect for the Irish summer too. I don't really wear them much with long tops but I love them with certain dresses. I have two dresses that I wear navy leggings with. These dresses are too short to be worn on their own but they're perfect over leggings and a cardigan. I recently bought a black and white monochrome/aztec print dress that can be worn on it's own but I've worn it with black leggings.

That's all for my summer looks. I think these looks are perfect for summer and can be adjusted to suit all climates!

OOTN!

Ok so here is my first Outfit Of The Night post!

It was my cousin's birthday on Friday so we went out for a few drinks and I thought I'd do a quick post on what I wore. It's a really simple and inexpensive look and it's perfect for summer.

Ok so the skirt is from Penneys and I absolutely love it! It has an elasticated waist band and it's really comfortable. The material is kind of heavy but it's so flowy you'd never be really too warm in it. I love the pattern on it and can't wait to wear it on holidays. I think it might look nice in the winter too with a pair of black tights. I bought this about 2 weeks ago for €11.

The top is just a plain black tank top. You can get these anywhere. The one I have is again from Penneys and was €3. I think a plain top is best with this skirt as a more dressy top could clash with the pattern in the skirt.

I got the shoes around the end of April/start of May to wear for my birthday. I am in love with the colour. I think they can really brighten up a dark outfit. I got them in New Look for about €22 I think.

I kept the jewellery simple. I just wore a silver statement necklace that I got in Penneys a while back. I wore a big watch that my boyfriend got me about 2 years ago and I also have a ring and my Pandora bracelet that Kevin also got me that I always wear.

Going out it was a little cool so I just threw on a black blazer and was good to go!

Hope you enjoyed this post! If you've tried this look or have other ideas for this look or for future posts I'd love to hear them so comment or tweet me them!

Converse Love!

In the last number of years the amount of people wearing converse has rapidly increased. A couple of years ago, I jumped on the bandwagon and bought a purple pair (R.I.P). Since then I have bought a total of 8 pairs!

I have two pairs of the boot-style ones, three of the chuck taylor-style ones and I recently threw out two other pairs (they really should have been thrown out about a year ago!).

I think they are so stylish and really easy to wear with almost anything. I personally love the boot style ones with jeans or leggings tucked into them paired with a long tshirt or baggy jumper. For the summer I think they are so cute with a pair of shorts. I’ve recently seen them being worn with skirts and midi/maxi dresses and there’s something really edgy about that look that I love. They are really comfortable and literally can be paired with almost anything! They’re such an effortless piece and totally on-trend. I don’t think they’ll be going out of trend anytime soon anyway!

Maxi Love!

Ok so it's been a while since my last post but I've been busy! Since summer is finally here, I thought I'd make a post about maxi dresses.

Maxi dresses and maxi skirts are so on-trend every summer and they are so versatile. They can be dressed up to be worn at night or dressed down for a more casual daytime look. I love wearing mine on holidays at night with a statement necklace and nice sandals. A little belt across the middle can also look good. They can even be altered when wearing them here in Ireland to make them more suitable for our colder climate. A light knitted jumper or cardigan goes great over them or even a blazer or denim jacket. Accessories are the key to styling a maxi dress! I personally love chunky necklaces and a big watch.


















Boohoo do great maxis and I bought a plain black one last week and I must say it's gorgeous. It fits perfectly and is really light so it's not too hot to wear on holidays and it was only €15! I can't wait to wear it with my new sandals (shown in my recent purchases post) and a chunky gold necklace and a gold watch. Penney's are also great for maxis as well as Asos, Missguided and New Look.

All of the looks pictured above can be found on my Pinterest board "Fashion".

Hopefully I can start posting more regularly now with more summer looks and fashion ideas. I will have holiday essentials and beauty and clothing hauls coming soon so make sure to keep an eye out for those!
