Just Purchased

Dress: Topshop

I just purchased this navy satin number from Topshop, I love the classic Audrey Hepburn silhouette and I have been scouring the shops for a graduation dress for weeks and I finally found the one. I plan on keeping the accessories to a minimum and some nude heels. I think it will come in handy for the Christmas season too. What do you think?

Jump

O U T F I T

Jumpsuit: Topshop,Shoes & Belt: Zara, Blazer: H&M,Bag: A-Wear

I know I know, I fell behind AGAIN on my blog posts, will I ever change? At this point it doesn't look like it; you'll just have to accept me for the lazy bi-otch that I am. 

Anyway, I've had this jumpsuit for ages and have been dying to get it on the blog. I have gotten countless wears out of it over the summer, the lightweight silk is so comfortable and it can easily transition from day to night. 

These are my most recent heel purchase from Zara and I love them. I put them off for some time as I wasn't too keen on the strap of leather at the front. I had wanted lace up heels for a long time and envisioned a complete tie up lace, but after lots of pondering back and forth I chose to look over the small flaw and I'm glad I did. 

The last picture is a little odd compared to the others, I just feel my posts can sometimes look so serious and usually my favourite pictures are the in-between shots that look so much more natural.

Old Faithful

O U T F I T

Tank, Shoes & Bag: Zara, Blazer: Topshop, Pants: River Island

Whenever I'm in a hurry or struggling to find an outfit to wear for a night out, I turn to my old faithful ensemble of leather pants, loose top, blazer, and heels. Not the most fashion forward outfit but everyone needs a failsafe ensemble that they feel good in for the desperate moments of not having anything to wear.  To spice it up a little I added my favourite little white bag. 

These shoes are my latest heel purchase from Zara and I have been wearing them at every opportunity since. They're refreshingly comfortable in comparison to my other heels of similar style.

Just Purchased - Sale

Top: Topshop, Bag: Zara.

I have been searching for a great red bag forever, I was always so envious when I saw a blog post with a fab red bag and now I have this baby on its way to me. I was so excited when I took a look through my old Topshop 'saved for later' items and found this pearl peplum top for 60% off. Yay!

There is nothing I love more than finding a fashion bargain. Over the years I have learned to restrain my sale spending, after too many impulse purchases I was left with a lot of items that don't nearly get their cost per wear. 

Remember - a bargain is only a bargain if you love it!

Blue Swede Sandals

O U T F I T

Tank: Asos, Jeans & Sandals: Zara, Bag: A-Wear, Necklace: Topshop, Watch: Fossil.

I have been absent from the blog for far more longer than I'm comfortable with. When other aspects of my life get hectic, it's so hard to find time for my precious blog. But I can't let it go that long again, I miss it too much!

I was running around the other day and just wanted to be comfortable so I went for my gorge new Zara sandals and a simple tank. I'm shocked that I haven't blogged this bag before. I was on the hunt for a great black satchel for ages and almost bought an expensive one from Topshop that I didn't even really love, but then I saw a woman wearing this beauty and had to ask where she got it. I was so surprised when she said A-Wear it looks so expensive and has the same great chevron detailing on the back too. 

I'll be back soon, thanks for reading.

New Day

O U T F I T

Tank: Asos, Skirt: TNFC at Asos, Blazer: H&M, Bag & Shoes: Zara, Necklace: Topshop.

This is my first post since I upgraded my blog photos with my new Lumix GF5. I couldn't be happier with my latest purchase and it has definitely been a long time coming. My iPhone camera skills were sufficient in the beginning but I began to crave more from my outfit posts, and was ready trade in the grainy results. 

I chose this particular model because it is known to be 'beginner friendly'. I'm not proud to say that I am certainly a beginner, seen as I have studied Journalism for three years and have had countless photography classes; I'm now kicking myself that I didn't pay more attention. Oh well, maybe now that I have a real interest I can learn more myself. 

I adore this outfit, I have been keeping an eye out for a flared skirt like this ever since I stumbled upon this gorge Miu Miu on Pinterest that was way out of my price range. I just about died when I found an almost identical one on Asos shortly after. Speaking of bargains I was so excited when I purchased this Zara bag, it's so pretty my heart can barely stand it. Soon after I noticed a very similar Alexander Wang version, am I on a role or what? 

You probably can't tell how in love I am with this outfit by my very grumpy face. I was concentrating so hard on the new camera that I totally forgot to smile! What can I say, I am a rooky.

The Usual Suspects

O U T F I T

Jumper & Necklace : Topshop, Waistcoat & Shoes: Zara, Pants & Bag: River Island, Watch: Fossil

Once again I am behind on my blog posts but this time I really do have a genuine reason, College work. You can't be mad at me for wanting to do College work, right? Anyway here are my usual suspects, Topshop, River Island, and Zara. Predicable, guilty but you can never accuse me of not being loyal. 

This Zara waistcoat is my latest purchase and I'm head over heels in love. So versatile and it will be perfect once in starts heating up (here's hoping) and replace my usual blazers.  

I got this bag a long time ago in a sale and broke it on my first outing. Oh well, still useful for blogs, when I don't have to actually use the handle.

Monochrome

O U T F I T

Shirt: Pull and Bear, Jacket: Warehouse, Jeans: Topshop, Boots: Zara, Necklace & Sunglasses: Asos

I have worn variations of this outfit almost constantly over the last few weeks. I have acquired a vast amount of monochrome separates recently that have quickly become my go-too pieces which results in a never-ending sea of black mixed with sparse drops of neutrals. 

This somewhat dreary style faze may have been triggered by my new die-for-can't-live-without boots. I have barely taken them off since I left the Zara store and I definitely think I have found 'the one'. The one perfect pair of ankle boots that stand out yet blend in, comfortable yet stylish, versatile yet unique in their own special way, maybe it's just me who likes to have a love affair with shoes but I am just smitten and couldn't be happier. 

These jeans are also my total fave's at the mo', black and gorgeous(as are 90% of my leg-wear collection,leg-wear?)as well as wonderfully comfortable. Wonderful comfort factors being, the seemingly never-ending stretch in the denim which is nothing short of a god-send, teamed with the rips at the knee make for a pair of jeans you could run a marathon in without stopping to hike them back up to your belly-button every two seconds. 

My necklace is an oldie but a goodie, the perfect statement piece for any outfit I feel needs a little pick-me-up.

Back To Basics

O U T F I T

Shirt & Coat: Pull and Bear, Pants: River Island, Necklace: Topshop, Bag: Zara, Belt & Shoes: Asos

I wore this outfit recently sans heels for a busy day of pulling clothes around the city for a photo shoot. Dressing for work days as an intern can be a challenge, meeting the line between business and casual is an art in itself but I think I managed it by pulling together a few basics that I already had hanging in my wardrobe. 

After a very hectic day I was late home and didn't have time to change, I threw on my new heels and was on my way. Surprisingly the outfit transcended perfectly for a couple of relaxed drinks with friends. 

I'm obsessed with this shoe style at the moment, although they are lot more uncomfortable to wear than the beloved platform, I am willing to withstand the pain for these beauties.

Neon

O U T F I T

Shirt: Vero Moda, Jacket & Earrings: Topshop, Jeans & Bag & Shoes: River Island. 

So much of this outfit has been found on sale, my most recent purchase is this fab neon shirt. I found the bargain in Vero Moda recently for €8! Love it. I picked up the light jacket in the Topshop sale last year, as well as my shoes which I bought around the same time from River Island. They are the perfect summer heel and I have been waiting for the weather to warm up a bit to break them out. Of course as soon as we started shooting this it began to rain, but that's to be expected here right? 

This satchel is one of my all-time favourite handbags, I have had it for years and it continues to be the perfect addition to any outfit I think needs an extra pop of colour. 

These jeans are also my all-time fave's, they are such a classic fit and wash I can wear them with anything. This is actually my third pair because my other two have been worn out completely, I'm sure this pair will have the same fate.
