My Outfit Today!

Today was a nice cosy day, I wore a purpley flannel shirt under a cream Aran jumper with jeans and a super cosy pair of brown suede boots.


I am a huge fan of shirts under jumpers, you'll be seeing a lot of these here!


These boots have a really nice wool lining inside for extra warmth in the winter

Shoes! Shoes! Shoes!

I've decided to post a few pictures of my beloved shoe wall:



As you can see I have them ordered by dressiness. Starting off with the boots and heading down to the brogues. These are also arranged by height for kicks.

Note the lovely hat section at the beginning
 Below that there's flats, leading into small runners and the start of my hi-tops. 
Yes that's the beautiful Air Max in the lower middle shelf
 And lastly the ballin' hi-tops section! 
And the work and gym shoes belong on the floor

I Need One of These!

Oh Lordy Lordy Lordy do I need one of these! 



It's the perfect advent calendar! A gal's dream! In these calenders are miniature blushes, lip glosses and some of their skin care range which I love and is so nice. There's even little pieces of jewelery! 

For those in Dublin it looks like they're only on sale in Debenhans in the city centre but I think the trip is worth it :)

I Loooooove my Nike Air Max!!!

Every day I don't wear my Air Max is a day wasted!



Now I will be honest, it did take me a little while to come around to them, but OHMADAYS now I'm never going back! They are so so comfortable and what's more comfort is now socially acceptable. 

WIN WIN!



Ain't they a pair o beauts?!

Tote Bag Project 1&2

A current project of mine is painting canvas tote bags that I bought on Amazon for a sweet price of €14 for 10! I love that I can be so creative with them, I'm trying to do completely different things with each of them so it's so much fun.

My first bag is a painting of a camera in black on one side and a reversed one on the other so the black and white have switched places. I got the idea from seeing a couple of tote bags online that had cameras on them so took that idea and went a bit further. 


My second one I love love love! As a huge Harry Potter fan (naturally) I had to come up with something good. I kept an eye out for good HP pictures and eventually found these two, put my own twist on them and voilá! 


That's my first two of ten, will post more as I do them. Enjoy!

I Like My Outfit Today!

I like my outfit today so much it spurred me to start a blog! In fact I often like my outfits and feel more of the world must see them!

I felt bold today pairing navy skinny trousers with a plain white shirt and a navy (yes more navy) letterman cardigan with a yellow strip at the bottom to separate the two navies. 



I paired it with a gold mid-length necklace and white faux keds with sparkly pink socks to beat the Monday blues! 

While my hair was down most of the day it got a bit frizzy and when I got home and got down to business of making a snack (GF brown bread toast and duck liver paté yum yum) I threw my hair into my hat and actually quite like how it looks with just a few strands falling out. Unsure yet as to whether or not I have the courage to wear it outside yet, will update!
