Closet Confidential!

























So this is a little post that I found on someones blog ages ago (sorry I forget who's blog it was!). But anyhow! Say hello to the worlds crappiest photos, but you can't say I didn't try!! :D This was actually quite fun to do because I got to look through my wardrobe and SEE what clothes I have, because sometimes you just get so used to wearing the same pair of jeans and your favourite knitted jumper that you just forget what else is in there! 

What is the oldest item you have in your wardrobe/ closet? 

The oldest thing I own is a top that my mum kept from when she was younger. It has a halter neck and really long ties at the back, with tassels on the ends. Very 80s, can't you tell! I haven't actually worn it out yet cos I am not sure what to pair it with!! And also because this is a vintage top and very different in style, I would need a bit of confidence to show this vintage item off!! 



What is the newest? 



I literally just bought this top for about €17 in New Look and I wore it out last Thursday. I love it so so so much! The shape is really flattering for most figures and the colour is one of my favourites at the minute and matches perfectly with my Kate Moss lipstick!! I wore this out with a pair of black jeans and black lace up heeled ankle boots on Thursday and it looked amazing. Pffft I looked amazing! Just kidding. But I really do love this top and I cannot wait to wear it out again!!




What is the most expensive? 



I am not one for buying expensive clothes, but this was one of those things I had to have. Its my cropped leather jacket from Topshop which I actually got for my 16th birthday. It was just under €100 and I saw it in the store, bragged to my mum about how much I loved it and she got it for me for my birthday! I wear this with everything. It always manages to make my outfit look edgy and cool, expensive too! Its so nice to wear even with something girly to make it seem a bit edgier! So yeah I love my expensive, topshop leather jacket. Thanks mum!





Whats the cheapest/ most affordable item? (that you wear/ use a lot!) 


I love love love this jacket! I bought it on sale in Forever 21 for €10. TEN EURO ERMAGERDDDDD. But yeah. Its cool. The colour is gorgeous and this also is another jacket that spices up any outfit. Its also really warm and cosy so perfect for the winter season! 






What was the biggest bargain? 


My disco ball dress, as I call it.  I bought this in a vintage flea market somewhere in Temple Bar for €15. The girl didn't want it anymore, I was looking for a sparkly dress and I was having trouble finding one for cheap anywhere else. So this definitely was the biggest bargain. The girl who sold it to me was telling me that she got it off of someone who dresses people for The Voice, and she told me the name of the girl who wore it in the promo photos but I forget.. Basically a singer from The Voice wore this exact dress previously. I love it!!! 






Show us three favourite items right now! 


I do not own the first one but I saw it in River Island and I love it but cannot afford it!! But I absolutely love this jacket.  I also love my red tartan skirt, €4 from Penneys and it looks really cute on! And finally my mint peplum top which I also bought on sale in Penneys for €5! I really like this, even though pastels dont suit me. The colour is cute and can be made look really nice with a chunky necklace and some nice jeans. 





Show something you love but others hate! 


I got these trousers in the middle east in H&M and I love them! But at first people are like meh they're not that nice, and then I put them on with some heels and a classy black top and they're like wow! They make an outfit look fun and can be dressed up to look smart or can be matched with a pop of colour. They also make your figure look great and I just really like these!







So overall, these are some of my fav things in my wardrobe at the minute and I thought it would be nice to share them with you. I am busy with exams next week, then its christmas week and I am going back to Oman in the Middle East to see my family, back for New Years.. So yes once again I am super busy but I will try my best to do a post. What would you like to see? A makeup look? Something Christmassy?? Let me know on blogger, instagram or twitter and hopefully I can do something you pick!!

Thanks for reading my pathetic post!!
Love,

Little Penneys Shopping Haul


Hello my dears! I am so sorry I haven't blogged in forever! I feel like I keep saying this lately but I am just so unbelievably busy at the minute! I just moved into my new place, I am starting university next Wednesday, I have 3 dance rehearsals a week for an upcoming musical and the list goes on! A few weeks back I bought a couple of bits in Primark/Penneys for moving in to my new home. 

As you can see, I like pugs. Like I really love pugs! So I got a cute little pug on a mug for €2 and the tea towel was €1.50. They have loads of other things in with pugs on them but that was enough for me in one day! I also bought myself a pack of 3 pairs of tights for about €4? As you know ''Fall'' has arrived and its a bit too cold to be showing the legs off! So if you reaaaaallllyyy have to, just shtick a pair of tights on be grand. And you can never have enough pairs of tights with the constant laddering and random holes appearing... The next thing I got was a chunky, fluffy, cosy dressing gown. I usually just wear my boyfriends hoodies in winter, but I saw this for €10 and I couldn't not get it! It's going to get freezing in winter so I am sure this beautiful dressing gown will keep me warm. The last thing I got in Penneys was FINALLY the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water. I got it for €3.50 and am not going to say any more on it because I want to do a review on it as soon as I have used it a good few times. But so far, so amazing. 

In the photo there is also a yellow top! I didn't get this in Penneys and completely forgot it was there! But anyways! I got it in New Look for €11.99! I have been looking for a yellow top for ages and have never found the perfect one! I saw one in H&M in Oman but it was too expensive for what it was so now I am so glad to have found the perfect one! Now what to pair it with... 

So anyhow! That was my quick little shopping haul! I have so much stuff to do but I will try and be back as frequently as I can. Thanks for sticking with me!
