Black White & Blue

I like experimenting with new styles and shapes and this tunic with really high cut side slits is the perfect example.  I bought it recently on my Misguided shopping spree and paired it with these high waisted Cameo pants and electric blue Penney's accessories for a dinner date night out.  It's fun to reveal an unexpected flash of skin on the side.  It's sexy, but still conservative too.  The only thing I would say is that the slits are cut quite high and it is at risk of showing your undergarments!! So wear a lacy bra or cameo that you don't mind showing off! xo

Biker Chic

I am off work this weekend and taking advantage of the beautiful weather!  Yesterday my family and I went off to explore the Inishowen peninsula in County Donegal.  I have a bucket list of all the beautiful beaches, parks and quaint towns to see up here before I move to Dublin in July.  We ate at the Red Door Country House in Buncranna, and that's where I snapped these pictures.  As you can see, the scenery is gorgeous!  

I wore this faux leather biker vest from Misguided and I am in love with it!  It was a steal at around 50 euros and is such good quality.  Vests or sleeveless jackets are a great way to transition into spring when there is still a chill in the air.  I particularly like the little details on this biker vest such as the zips, pockets and belt at the bottom.  xo

Off the Shoulder

I am obsessed with all things off the shoulder at the moment!  Forget boobs, butts and legs, the shoulder is the new erogenous zone.  It's where it's at :) Last weeks good weather is gone and it seems to be back to the old typical Irish sweater weather this April.  I recently went on a major shopping spree on Missguided and got this great off the shoulder sweater.  It's so cozy and comes in four different colours and it's a total steal at under 30 euros.  I paired it with this fluffy River Island bag and my favourite ripped white jeans from Penney's for a casual day in the park with the kids.  xo

Spring in My Step

What beautiful weather we been having lately in Ireland! It feels like spring is finally here. . . time to shed off those winter layers, break out the sunnies and who knows, you may even get a tan!?  I had a lovely Easter weekend soaking up the sunshine on the beaches of Donegal with friends and family.  I wore this brightly coloured outfit to reflect the cheerful and sunny mood that good weather brings.  This unexpected colour combination of orange, purple and green works really well together.  Also, with my new shorter hair cut, I've decided that I'm going to bring back the statement earring starting off with these large gold hoops (watch this space!) I hope you all enjoyed the sun as much as I did.  Long may it last! xo

"Coffee keeps me going 'til it's time for wine"

During my recent trip to Dublin to scout out neighbourhoods for my upcoming move, I managed to fit in a bit of shopping (of course, says you!)  My husband allowed me one hour to hit Grafton Street, so some major speed shopping was in order.  My first stop was BT2 to have a look at the new SS Maje collection and I picked up this black and silver oversized sweater.  I also bought these Cos trousers.  They have an elasticised waist and legs which make them so comfortable.  They are almost like a fancy jogging pant that you can wear to work!  I took these photos outside one of my favourite little artesian food shops in Letterkenny called The Counter.  This bench pretty much sums up my life motto! xo

Culottes

Culottes - cool, or not?? That is the question this spring summer season!  They were seen all over the runway and now they are hitting the high street.  Culottes may initially seem like a tricky trend, but they come in many shapes and sizes and can be found to suit any body type.  But one thing is essential, no matter which type of culottes you prefer - whether they are the shorter, broader type like the ones I am wearing here, or the longer pants like version - heels are a must!!

My whole outfit (bar the blazer which is Zara) was bought recently in Penney's and was a great bargain. I especially love the pop of cobalt blue and the snake skin detailing on the clutch.  Culottes like this would be great for work or even a wedding or afternoon tea. xo

White Out

I got this outfit to motivate me to get in shape for my holidays in Ibiza in May.  For me, it takes a lot of guts to wear all white and have a bear midriff.  But spring is coming, the days are getting longer and the time for hiding behind multiple layers of clothing and scarves is coming to an end (at least I hope so!)  

Recently, I fallen in love with lots of Australian clothing brands - Cameo The Label, Zimmermann and Senso - to name a few.  I ordered these pants online from Cameo and they were shipped to me all the way from Oz.  My sister-in-law's shop in Cork, Verso/ The Dress Bar also stock Cameo if you fancy shopping a little more locally. xo
