Orange Is The New Black


I am wearing colour! Whatt? I have defiantly been stuck in a monochrome rut for the past amm.. 3 years or so but nevertheless I do like my pops of colour every now and then! This orange playsuit is certainly eye catching so I teamed it with this AMAZING duster coat from Pennys to tone it down. Colour isn't something I work well with even when I draw i tend to keep it in black & white. I find that teaming bright colours with neutrals makes the look more chic. The shoes are one of my favourite pairs at the minute and again are from Pennys they are super cute and comfortable. I love the print as despite their boldness animal prints act in the same manner as neutrals and therefore go with pretty much anything! I also tried out the statement necklace trend with this look ( I know I must be the last person in the world to catch on!). They are actually two separate necklaces, both statement pieces on their own but together they really help to set off the look! I will link all the items below!

Baggy pants & Crop Tops



This outfit is pretty casual and all black which sticks with my usual style. The trousers are from Asos and are inspired by a pair I saw on my number 1 girl crush kylie jenner! They are super comfortable and suprisingly flattering for such a baggy fit! I paired them with one of my favourite crops from H&M which I habe featured in a few posts now! The bag is RiverIsland and is ancient! Haha I really should get rid of it but I just dont have the heart to! The jacket is my boyfriends and is from a Nine Lives a small boutique in Kilkenny (my hometown!). I will link what I can down below. Thanks for checking out my post!

Wants&Wishes





Wants and wishes





This months Wants&Wishes is a tad random with no particular theme evident. i just wanted to share some of the items that I am really lusting after!
1. 
A pair of nude heels. I really love the look of nude heels as I feel that they elongate the leg and give a really chic streamlined look! I love this Steve Madden pair which plays upon the whole strappy heel look. 

2.
 A head piece. I know I am a bit late on the whole headpiece trend but I am really lusting after this LaModaUk piece which I think would look amazing at a festival! I think it gives off a Great Gatsby vibe and really blings up this Boho trend! The neutral muted green gems give it a more toned down earthy look taking away that potentially gaudy look! 

3.
Black Booties! Okay I admit i have a bit of an addiction to black ankle boots but they are just so perfect for everyday wear! I love these for both summer and winter and have worn my old Newlook pair half to death. I would probably go for a lower heel than this for everyday wear but i am loving the sleek design of these Jeffery Campbell pair! 

4.
A new I phone case! My old is looking just a little worse for wear so I am on the hunt for a cool new cover! I saw this one on Polyvore and was immediately drawn to it. If anyone knows a good place to get cool phone cases be sure to let me know in the comments!

5.
Okay so this one is defiantly a random pick, but this month I have been on the look out for a cactus plant! This is mainly for my flatlay Instagram posts but I do think it would be a fun addition to my room!

6.
Nars Sheer Glow Foundation. This one is pretty self explanatory, who doesnt want to try this beauty cult favourite!

7.
Another lamodauk addition, I really like their pieces, they have some really great shoes, handbags and accessories all at a super affordable price! If you havent checked them out I suggest you do, you wont regret it! 

8.
This amazing Zara bag! The quilted leather, the gunmetal hardware! Ughh this baby is just amazing and totally Chanel inspired! LOVE !

SilverLinings


Today's outfit features my new Primark Longline Blazer. I absolutely love this item and had to travel to Dublin to get it! The outfit is pretty much all Primark with the exception of the jeans which are from RiverIsland. The weather here in Ireland has been pretty gloomy for the past few days so I have gone back to basics in all black. I defiantly feel most comfortable in black as I feel that it can look ultra chic with minimal effort. Both the blazer and the top are a sort of crepe material and hang really nicely on the body. The thing i love about this outfit is that all the pieces are super affordable yet it has an expensive feel! I also added the silver socks to add a subtle pop! I wont be able to link the items as they are all from Pennys but they are all recent purchases so should still be available in stores! 











Thank you for checking out my blog!
