My style: Stripes are alright! Keep it simple!

Hey my lovelies, 

Yet another post on my style, my way..I have this secret obsession with stripes!! 

I can never get enough of them, but you know what? they are a must have for any wardrobe. Stripes in any type top or jumper are such a classic piece and never date! They look great with blazers, coats or paired with jeans. And their biggest advantage is they are so practical!

This one above, I had been lusting over for an age, and when in +Athlone Towncentre Shopping Centre , one day with my sister I spotted it back in stock. Its from Zara for €29.95, available here, I love the material, its a fine knit with a stretch in it and its so comfy.

The thing about this sweater that appealed to me most is the high neck on it. I'm not a huge fan of polo necks maybe because I don't have a long neck, so this type of style suits me better!

I know its coming into the Summer so the likelihood of getting lots of wear out of it in the next few months is slim, although it is Ireland and the Irish weather can be unpredictable. One things for sure, it will be pulled out of the wardrobe for autumn. 

The sunglasses are Guess, that I picked up in +TK Maxx, I swear by it girls, TK Maxx has a great selection of sunnies for fabulous prices, you just need to be quick! Those pair were €39.99!

A better look at the sweater, the back of it dips a little more in length than the front, which is a style I'm loving.

I paired the sweater with leather pants, and these ones I picked up in River Island a while back for €24 (I know!!) still some in stock but very little sizes (here) . If you are looking for a nice Leather pair then I would recommend the Freddy Leather pants (they are amazing and currently on my wishlist!)  available here.

The bag, no words needed really..this was bought as a gift from my brother on his travels a few years ago, he did good really didnt he? Its divine and one of my most coveted things in the wardrobe!

I kept the whole look casual by adding my adidas superstars, I love these, so comfy and great for casual wear...mind you not quiet sure how I kept them so white in this pic! You can find them here

I also gave this outfit a run for its money over in Paris too and was super for strolling around the pretty Parisian streets, casual yet stylish.

Hope you enjoyed this post

Until next time

Blazer alert! & accessories that transform an outfit

Hey my lovelies

Blazers, a girl should as many hanging in their wardrobe as humanly possible..they are so practical and go with almost every outfit! 

A statement neck lace is another piece that you should have as 'must have'  accessory. 

I previewed this blazer on the blog before, for those who missed it,  this ones penneys 

It was €23 and still in stock. 

It goes with all types of colours and clothing and I literally have worn it to death.

Most blazers we tend to wear with casual outfits and its amazing what adding a statement neck piece can do to completely transform an outfit.

This Statement neckpiece I bought sometime ago from a lovely lady Emma from The Jewel Genie, it is just beautiful and gives any outfit a little lift.

The Blazer is worn with Tapered Trousers from River Island, but I've also worn this blazer with a tulle skirt and cami, or leather trousers, and it looks fabulous with jeans.

River Island Trousers available here, Tshirt: Penneys €9, Blazer Penneys €23, still in stock, similar available here, Shoes Carvela here. Sunglasses Parfois.

Following on from this post, I will pull together some looks for you, to demonstrate just how easy it is to use one blazer for numerous items of clothing in your wardrobe and pull a completely different outfit together using the same blazer over and over.

Until next time my lovelies 

Have a great weekend

River Island high summer 2016

Hey Ladies,

On Wednesday I was lucky enough to be invited to preview River Islands High Summer Collection...the sun was shining in busy Dublin city center and I was dreaming of long evenings..holidays, Ice cream and everything else that comes with sunny weather!

So when I popped into River Islands Press room, my mind set was already on a beach in a fab bikini (lets not think about the bikini body or lack of it for now..mid scoffing of Fudge bar as we type!!) sipping on pina colada!! So I was sold on their Summer Collection as I spotted beautiful swimwear draped on their walls!!

The collection is beautiful,  Vibrant colour, texture and trim details are key features this season – fresher, bolder and wearable as ever, the collection encapsulates everything needed for a Summer wardrobe.

Transitioning in to high summer CARMEN continues with a palette of white, black and red. The trend comprises feminine and pretty with latina influences for a new-romantic peasant vibe

Clean and smart dressing with a nod to nautical is apparent through SPA SEA, focusing on smart dressing, crisp white tailoring, against frayed finishes and raw edgings for a rustic yet contemporary feel.

LE CHIC has an artisan feel with a classic and sophisticated approach to utility dressing. Mixing contrasting fabrications for a contemporary look; suede, nylon and leather are combined.Le Chic offers beach to bar pieces in a rustic palette using natural fabrics for a relaxed and casual style

With a mash up of inspiration, ETIENNE fuses 90’s sport with seventies chic the perfect alternative to festival dressing, steering away from bohemian and fringing, instead focusing on embellishment, crochet and lace.   

Overall River Island High Summer collection is vibrant and fun and offers something to suit everyone's style...

Cant wait to get my hands on all of the above, and look uber cool while sipping on cocktails by the beach!! Whose with me!

Until next time

My style my way & my endless affair with Jumpsuits .. Love them!

Hey Ladies

Can you believe its almost the weekend again..love it! This weekend I'm off gallivanting to London cant wait..while packing I was trying to figure out what to bring. I wanted something I could wear while casually pottering around the streets of London, but would take me from day to night with one quick change from flats to heels.

Straight away I thought of my Jumpsuits! They are perfect for rolling into a "carry on bag" and take up little or no space, so absolutely their coming in my bag..this particular one below is neatly tucked into the suitcase!

I love a good jumpsuit and when I spotted this Utility Khaki one I had to have it! I picked it up from Asos. It's from New look and I nabbed it for less than €24, unfortunately its all sold out but you can find similar ones here, here and here

This cape is my go to jacket, Its from my ultimate favourite boutique Folkster it was a gift from my husband, (this is becoming a bit of a trend these gifts from the hubbie..but he did and I love it) find similar here, here or here.

A closer look at the cape and Jumpsuit along with shoes, which are New Look and available here, or similar here. Glasses are from a spanish designer Roberto I picked up on Holidays.

I love the fact that the legs you can roll up and I will definitely be pairing them with cons too during the summer.

I love any kind of jumpsuit, they are super chic and so so comfy, although lets not mention having to use the toilet, that's where some jumpsuits can get tricky ..still love them though! 

And in the next few weeks I'll pull together a few of my favourite style of Jumpsuits

Have a great weekend everyone 

Until next time
