Easter Time!


Easter time woo! More like mega chocolate fest...
Although, we may have had snow the last few days here in Dublin, I felt a certain springtime look was in order for this day! 
My sheer, patterned blouse is from Penneys. The purple, cream, and brown shades suit the day along with the aptly named 'Peter Pan' collar. As there promises to be many sweet goodies, the elastic waistband on my skirt is perfect! Looking sharp with room for chocolate...match made in heaven. 
There is a chill in the air following our snowy weather, therefore, I completed my outfit with grey wolly tights and brown wedge boots. 
My spring look is further continued with my cutesy yellow hair bow (totally not taken from a chocolate box...) and natural look make-up. 
 Happy Easter everyone!

So guys. It's been a while! Please accept my sincerest apologies...

A little thing called London Fashion Week went down around mid-February and I was there with my college Fashion Society. No biggie sure! ....I jest, it was spectacular!

Here's my post on the Trinity Fashion Society's blog about the overall experience:

For such a super-stylin' occasion, a girl ,of course, needs to have some super-stylin' threads to walk the cobbled streets! 
This is just a breakdown of my outfits over the three days for y'all! 
Day 1: As this day was to consist of a lot of transport and walking around, the natural approach would have been to wear comfy clothes...not for this girl! Surprisingly, I decided to go for a rather chicer, more put-together look than I would normally go for. My top tip for travelling is layers, layers and more layers! From the bottom up I am wearing Penneys brogues, black tights, Penneys skirt, vintage red silk shirt, Forvever 21 short embellished jacket and my beloved Ralph Lauren jacket. 
Day 2: After walking around 'Somerset House' a.k.a. the Fashion Centre of My World, the second day was the time to rev up the style levels! My teddy-boy shoes are from New Look, wolly polka-dot tights from Penneys, vintage black-lace skirt with side split, vintage blue silk shirt, Forever 21 bright yellow jumper with the ole RL jacket yet again. Also, my hair and accessories took a bit of a 'Karma Chameleon' turn with my side-swept locks, small plaits and massive feather earring! 
Day 3: Yet again, my look became uncharacteristically chic. I like to think that my outfit was somewhat reminiscent of the recent Dior catwalk look (see below). My cute little slippers were a buy on the trip in Topshop (they have a MASSIVE shop on Oxford St) and a welcome change for my poor feet. Again, black tights were paired with a Penneys skirt, top and belt. I should've totally asked Penneys for sponsorship! My statement necklace hails from Pulse.

St. Patrick's Day

As I hail from The Emerald Isle, naturally, green, white and orange were my colours of choice today! My 'Kerry green' shirt is from Wild Child while my (well-loved/worn) orange cardigan is from New Look. Paired with a flowery hair bobbin, I was set for the day ahead!
