Side Slits and a Fringe

Well, it's only a few weeks into January and I'm back to my monochrome ways!  It's a well known fact that New Years resolutions don't last very long. . .When it comes to fashion, it makes sense to stick to a tried and true formula that works for your body type while staying true to your personal style.  That being said, it's fun to try new things and push the boundaries out as well!  I bought this sweater at Cos last week in Dublin.  It's part of the new collection and a great way to transition into the spring while staying warm.  I love the unique buttons down the side that you can wear open or closed for layering.  xo

Capes and Plaid

I took these pictures a few days ago before snow blanketed Ireland and you could still wear clothes like these without absolutely freezing to death!  I got this high waisted Sandro skirt in the sales at Brown Thomas.  It's super versatile and I am going to wear it to work with a smart collared shirt and also on  nights out with a crop top.  On this occasion, I paired it with a cropped sweater and cape to keep warm.  xo

I am so lucky to have the holiday season off work to enjoy friends, family, food and of course. . . the after Christmas sales!!  My family and I made the 6 hour car journey down from Donegal to Cork and let me just say that it was worth it because the shopping here is on point!  I picked up some great pieces and I can't wait to share them with you. 

 

 My close friend and fellow blogger Irish Fashaholic and I caught up over lunch and couldn't help but take a few outfit snaps of each other as you do! This over sized sweater I picked up in the Zara sale is most probably the coziest thing I have ever owned.  To prevent it from looking too mumsy, I paired it with these hot Zara boots (also from the sale!), and very comfy, I might add! Happy shopping and be sure to check out www.irishfashaholic.blogspot.ie  xo
