Date Outfit

For all you single ladies out there, finding the perfect date outfit can be stressful with wanting to make a good first impression.  This summer, there are so many gorgeous trends that it will be impossible not to find a sexy look to make him pay attention.  My favourite trend this season is textured and pastels.  This look is all about looking fun, flirty and romantic.  The skirt from Rare has been a staple in my wardrobe since last summer and is so versatile it has made the transition from season to season.  The movement in the petals makes it perfect for those summer evening strolls or dancing the night away at a trendy bar.  I have teamed it with this simple white crop top from Topshop and a beautiful detailed cropped jacket from Miss Selfridge.  These gorgeous mushroom coloured heels from Miss Selfridge pick up the tones in the jacket and are right on trend with their tribal inspired details.  Accessories are kept simple with this charming bracelet from Accessorize and earrings from Topshop.  With headpieces all the rage at the minute, this pearlesque piece from Topshop completes the look.  For a more day time look, wear with gladiator sandals and simple little stud earrings.
Hope you like!! x

Hi

Don't you just hate when you get a ladder in your tights? Well I promise you won't hate my blog (at least I hope you won't!) This is just a little of me and everthing I love...which is a abit random I have to confess! Fashion, music, film, my girls, good food, and nights out! :-)


My favourite trend this week is nudes. I've flown back to Ireland for a few weeks to catch up with everyone and I needed a new outfit for our girlie night out.  I bought this dress from New Look and I teamed it with black platform shoe boots from topshop, charcoal chandelier earrings and beaded bracelets from New Look and a simple black clutch. 

Everyone commented how flattering the shape is, the ruffles covering anything you're worried about. (though be warned, it's verrrry short for us tall girls!)

Nude colours look best with a tan so if, like me, you haven't been blessed with gorgeous olive skin, get faking it! Over the years I've tried every tanning lotion, potion and even the sunbeds but now for instant tan, I use good old faithful Sun Shimmer by Rimmel or for a longer lasting colour, L'Oreal Sublime is faultless, even on my pale irish skin.

Well just a little hello from me!
