Autumn Leaves


Hello my lovelies! So I promised a post this week and tada! Here it is :D I decided to do a fashion shoot this week because I have a week off and why not do something fun and adventurous. So I took a trip into Dublin City with my boyfriend and he took some really nice shots around the Temple Bar area and St. Stephens Green. The weather was a bit crappy but hey, it's Autumn, what do you expect? 

Because it is Autumn, I tried to make my outfit warm and cosy, but pretty and stylish at the same time. Most of the things I am wearing are from my fav place, all totaaaalllyyy expensive and designer... They're from*drumroll* PENNEYS/PRIMARK! :D But they have an amazing collection in at the minute and all at amazing prices. 

The coat is from... Penneys. I got this for Christmas last year and I think it was €30? It is the cosiest jacket/coat that I own. It keeps you warm, it's thick, the colour is trĂ©s cute and my favourite part about this military style jacket is the fur-lined hood. It is so cosy and serves well as a hat yet also protects you from the rain (and I know this because it rained on the day we took these photos!). So overall, I love this item and am so glad I got to share it with you all for this shoot. 

Another item from Penneys is the tartan skirt. I paid €4 for it just at the beginning of Autumn and I am absolutely loving it. I wear it all the time to college and it's perfect no matter what weather because even on freezing mornings I have paired it with boots and thick tights and I am warm! I love the tartan trend at the minute and for only a couple of euro this is an Autumn must-have!

Next, the red knitted jumper is from New Look. This is one of my favourite jumpers because I love the colour, it's extremely comfortable and goes with just about anything! I bought this for about €14? It was so worth it because the quality is amazing and I wear it allllllll the time! 

Last the little bits and bobs, the boots, socks and tights are all from Penneys and the bag is from Forever 21. I bought this bag when I was shopping with my Mum once because the one I was using at the time just decided to break while I was shopping, the bag strap came right off... So yeah I had to get a new bag and I am so glad I got this bag because I absolutely love it! A similar story happened with the boots actually! I had to walk 20 mins from the train station to blancharstown shopping centre  in the lashing rain and to make things worse the soles were coming off the top of my boots, so I had to buy new boots and socks so I ran into Penneys and bought these gorgeous chelsea boots! They were €15 and I love them! 

So I hope you are all enjoying your midterm if you are having one and if not hope you're all having a good week! Hopefully I will do something Halloweeny this week or next week to go with one of my fav holidays! 

Thanks guys!
Love,

Festival Fashion Combos!


Hello! So yesterday I went to see Arctic Monkeys in Marlay Park in Dublin and they were amaaazinggg!! Special guests were Royal Blood, Miles Kane and Jake Bugg! The whole day was amazing, and surprisingly, I enjoyed the little showers throughout the day because it was just so hot!

But anyways! The day before, I wanted to see what I was going to wear so while I was deciding, I decided to take a few pics and make up some festival fashion combos! I didn't really do accessories because there were so many outfits, but these are the outfits that I liked the most! I have my DIY tops in there somewhere and if there is anything you want to know where I bought it, don't be afraid to ask! Also want to apologise as I am not the most photogenic and my bedroom isn't exactly a great background but I tried my best! 

Next week I am going to Longitude music festival so I will post next week what I wore to that and what I decided to wear to Arctic Monkeys! 

OH forgot to mention I was already tanned but I put a light layer of COCOA BROWN TANNING MOUSSE on!! I love this tan and I think it is so perfect for the summer months!

Hope you're all enjoying the festival season and I hope to be back soon with more posts! 
Thanks!
