Winter Warmer

I really don't like January. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone here! Its so cold & quiet that the only way to get through it is to treat ourselves or make some exciting plans! I've done a bit of shopping, booked a weekend away and am starting back at the gym tomorrow morning! It seems like the whole country is on a January Detox/Health Kick and I'm loving it! Its nice to start the year off on a positive note!

 

I started talking about January because this outfit is all about the layers & wrapping up! It has been so cold in Cork these last few weeks. I love my new Penney's hat as its so snug & cosy and, at €3, wont break the bank! I've had my eye on this adorable little camera bag from Accessorize for ages and snapped it up in the Sale for just €20!

 

Hope everyone's having a great 2015 so far,

Dont forget to Sparkle

 

So we are near the end of 2014! What a great year it has been, I will do a post looking back on my favourite bits of the year but for now I leave you with some sparkling inspiration for New Years Eve.

 

And remember, there's no such thing as too much glitter!

I am feeling very festive this weekend! I finally got a start on my Christmas shopping and we visited the lovely market in town for some tasty goodies! We also got our tree up and mulled some wine. I do love this time of year!

 

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

A New Dawn

 

A new month is here, and it's one of my favourites of the year.

I'm feeling a fresh and exciting vibe with new beginnings & adventures!

Prints Charming

Scarf, belt, jeans, boots Penneys/Primark Blazer Zara Bag Topshop 

Hands up, I am guilty of being a bad blogger over the last week or so! I am back to work after a lovely 10 months off so have been adjusting to that, and had a bad case of the sniffles too. But I'm back to normal now:)!

 

So the week before last, I was invited to a bloggers preview of the Opera Lane AW collections in Perry Street Café. The food was amazing (especially those red velvet cupcakes!) and the show, which was styled by Natasha Crowley, made me want to run to Opera Lane there & then and buy everything!

 

I went with the beautiful Margaret of 4ngstyle and we took some pics before the show, so huge thanks to her for these photos and do check out her gorgeous blog if you haven't already!

All Wrapped Up

Scarf, Top, Leather Jacket, Boots & Bag Penneys/Primark Jeans New Look

 

 

I am so in love with Penney's range of scarves for Autumn Winter! I bought this one a few weeks ago and have been dying to wear it ever since.  It is so cosy & also oversized so can be worn either as a scarf or wrapped around as a shawl.It is check on one size & houndstooth on the reverse so really you're getting two scarves in one! And if all that isn't enough, it also comes in a range of colours! I have my eye on the pastel pink version & the forest green too.

Grey Matters

 

One trend I am definitely going to be working this season is Grey! It is finally starting to get chilly enough to take out all those cosy winter pieces you've had packed away all Summer. What I love most about this trend is that it works best when you layer up all different shades of grey & fabric textures. Layer that beautiful chunky knit over a delicate charcoal slip, or throw your favourite grey coat over a cosy sweater & pair of leather trousers.

 

And accessories? Grey of course:)!

Feeling Check-y

Shirt Luella Shorts Zara T-shirt & Bag Penneys Shoes Converse

 

A super quick outfit post from the weekend! I am just loving this weather we are having and it is set to stay for the week! I didn't think Id still be wearing my denim cut-offs in September! This check shirt is one of my most treasured pieces, as it is Luella, whos label was one of my favourites!

 

Happy Monday!
